Name: Sylvan Tyler Wolfe
Codename: Puppeteer
Age: 28
Appearance: 5'9" with a medium build, dark skin, and tightly-curled black hair that he's grown out to roughly shoulder length. He has brown eyes and extremely white teeth, and smile frequently; his glasses are heavy black plastic.
Job: Theater Director, teaches geography, oceanography, and political science.
Sylvan Wolfe has a very specific sort of telekinesis: while the standard telekinetic tricks work poorly for him (if at all), he's exceptionally skilled at causing mechanisms to move and animating puppets and other articulated figures. Rather than undertaking a life of crime or a heroic crime-fighting career, Sylvan turned his powers to use for his first love: the theater.
Pensive and bombastic by turns, Mr. Wolfe directs the school's theatrical productions, teaching his students about acting, stage design, lighting, sound, and special effects. He works closely with Glimmer and Anacrusis for dances and related choreography, and sometimes brings in Monk to assist with stage combat.
When not busy with the theater, he teaches a handful of science classes. He also occasionally builds and deploys various sorts of puppets to assist with training the teams; he takes great pleasure in playing the Mystery Villain during these scenarios. His one weakness, he says, is congenital: he has a dramatic streak a mile wide. Despite that, he is very careful to teach "his kids" a responsible approach to safety in all areas of their theatrical roles.
He is generally well-liked by the students, even if he occasionally gets a little too enthusiastic about trying to recruit them into the theater program. He is unmarried, and shows no inclination to change that; he claims that he has only ever loved the spotlight, and is married already to the stage.
