Backstory:

Jed grew up in a small farming community outside Wichita. His family owned a large plot of land that they cycled crops on, raised a small handful of live stock, and housed a moderate flock of chickens and ducks. He is, or rather was, an all-American farm boy.

As a child he attended Sunday school and 4H, and when he was about eight his father started letting him help out with tractor repair. At fifteen he started rebuilding old car and motorcycle engines. At seventeen he bought and restored an old rusted out Honda Bomber, and the following summer he and his bike moved up to St. Rays. Shortly after arrival he secured a job at a garage, and has been fixing cars and bikes ever since.

Over the years he saved up and put his earnings towards buying and restoring his own garage space with an apartment over, and filling it with equipment and tools, until he was finally able to go into business for himself fixing cars and bikes.

Arcana Magic: Jed can manipulate available water based fluids to create a temporary shield that can be used in defense or to knockback/bludgeon in a pinch. Any water based fluid will do, including blood. If blood is used, specifically his own, the shield will be stronger, but he's not immune to the effects of blood loss. The size of the shield can be up to half of Jed's body height, unless he's inflicted damage to himself to activate the shield, or to strengthen it in battle in battle(1 point of damage), then it can be his full height.
