Description: Unimposing in stature this consumate entertainer is huge is his presence. It has nothing to do with him being extraordinarily handsome. It's in his eyes. Just his movements mesmerize people.
History: Jeffrey was born in the NorthWest US in 1981. When his father, a general contractor and his mother, a choreographer and actress, watched him play on the floor as a two year old they knew they had someone special in their midst. He was surrounded not by blocks and stuffed animals but by nuts and bolts and screwdrivers as well as springs and switches and gears. By age 4 he was taking apart and putting back together any number of household appliances. By age 6 he was playing with electronic sets and science kits. By age seven he started constructing his own remote controlled cars out of salvaged motors and parts of other broken toys. At age 9 his parents took him to his first magic show and he was hooked. He wasn't so attracted to learning how to do the tricks as much as he wanted to know how they worked. Enthralled with what it meant to think like a magician, Jeffrey turned a normal childhood hobby into a science. He worked hard at perfecting his magic skills and by 18 he was performing at the Magic Castle in Hollywood. The youngest performer ever to do so. His most quoted words are "Impossible is merely an opinion."
Naturally he was eager to learn everything he could about everything. He started at UC Santa Barbara where he majored in Economics and Mathematics. During that period he worked with other universities in the fields of applied physics and perceptual psychology. He didn't attend classes for grades, that was the last thing on his mind. He wanted to know how all of this combined to explain magic. Jeffrey has recently specialized in the forming of elements that don't normally take formation well, like water. Even though there is science behind it, even science does not explain it completely. With this new type of magic and illusion Jeffrey has come to be known to the public as the best magician practicing today.
Having done everything there is in the world of magic/illusion entertainment Jeffrey has delved further into the depths of what he does. As he does so he is approached by someone who expresses concern about his research. Jeffrey is astounded when he learns that magic is real and that he needs to be much more careful about where he goes with his research. As a result of this contact he joins the council of wizards and learns about the coming of dark magic. The council cautions Jeffrey to keep up a good front so he continues to practice his craft on TV and at large venues as well as Las Vegas. All his shows are sold out and he has become very wealthy.
So as not to look too familiar while is practicing new forms of magic and working for the Council he has taken on a nickname as well as a mask and costume. He is known under those circumstances as Captain Mystical.
