Landon felt frozen during Anderson's entire speech and he wasn't certain if that was an ability of his, to root somebody to the ground with a single word or if the man simply had a knack for commanding a crowd's attention. The effects of his suspected power began to wear off almost immediately after he finished his speech, It was almost like pins and needles or like his entire body had fallen asleep and he was slowly regaining control; confirming Landon's suspicions.
Magnus Andersen possessed the ability of compulsion... or mind control, whatever.
"Are you asking me if I think an American corporation murdered hundreds of people for their own research and benefit?" Landon quizzed, somewhat dumbfounded that that was even a question that needed to be answered.
i have to get out of here. it was the only thought running through his head through during andersen's speech, yet jackson stood stunned with the rest of the crowd. the world was frozen for a second before pandemonium broke. he remained stuck, too panicked to kick into action. instead, he felt their agitated buzz in his stomach, his chest, his head. a tickle in his throat, and he was coughing into his hand, practically unnoticed in the chaos. after a few moments, there sat four yellow-jackets, who seemed to almost be looking at him expectantly.
"this cannot be happening," he said to himself hoarsely. jackson closed his hand over them, gently holding him against his palm. directed desperately at the person closest to him, he said, "this—that can't be true, right?"

Landon casts a curious glance around the room, observing the slight changes in people's body language following Anderson's accusations—shoulders straightened and pushed back, jaws clenching, eyes widening and the nervous tapping of somebody's foot. A woman in a black dress the colour of midnight fidgets with her lipstick, waiting to see how her peers react before forming her own opinion.
Sheep.
"A Montreal Screwjob?" Landon repeats, uncertain if he heard the man correctly on account that he hadn't been paying him a blind bit of attention. "What's that? Like a Moscow Mule?" Landon was going to need something stronger if the rest of his night involved conspiracy theories and strangers attempting to take care of him.
Open for anyone.
TJ took a deep breath and focused. He was not about to think too hard about what was just said. Or what has happened to him to get him to this point. Or the possiblity his brother could may as well knew this .TJ might be a cerberus agent but he was also a firefighter. For TJ that comes first and foremost. TJ slipped on a the red windbreaker and gathered as much water as he could. He passed the water bottle to the person and sit near them. Just distract the person long enough to get them calm and hydrated.The rest can come later
"You ever heard of the Montreal Screwjob?" He asked opening his own bottle to take a sip of water.

002. EXTRA ORDINARY ( TW DROWNING )
near death experience… it was new years eve, landon was celebrating the end of 2022 and ringing in the new year with his family at their cabin in the woods in vermont. a lowe family tradition that has been upheld since he was a little boy. the lowe's had celebrated as they always had—the champagne flowing, the log fire burning and a few home truths being spilt after his mother had popped one too many xanax's and father had drank too much of his favourite malt whiskey ending in landon needing to escape his parents resentment and disappointment. grabbing a coat from the closet and a bottle of his own favourite spiced rum, landon announced he was going to get some fresh air and departed the cabin and headed straight for the frozen lake.
he had often walked laps around the frozen lake in the winters spent in vermont when he needed to escape his family and clear his head, he had no idea that night would be any different, or that the ice had slowly been cracking all day long. it only took one wrong step from landon before he plummeted through the ice, sinking into the icy waters below. it was only by chance that his younger brother had followed him outside, come to check on him after exchanging verbal blows with their parents. if it wasn't for the string lights firepit still burning outside, his brother might have missed the last vestiges of landon sinking beneath the ice and might still be alive today. it was his brother who raced out onto the ice to save him, calling for his mother and father before diving into the water with only one goal in mind—save landon.
landon still doesn't know how long he was under the ice for. it could have been seconds or it could have been minutes. all he remembers is falling beneath the ice, the water rushing into his lungs and then his brother dragging his body out of the lake. landon survived his near death experience, walker lowe didn't.
power… it was two weeks after his brother's death that landon's power first manifested, during the funeral of all things. landon had been asked by his mother and father to read walker's eulogy and landon had accepted—after all, walker was the only reason he was still alive.
the second landon stepped up onto the podium to deliver his brother's eulogy, staring out across the church full of grieving family members and friends, his chest tightened and his breathing fell in laboured breaths. landon felt the cold chill of the ice seeping into his bones again, water lapping at his feet, could smell the birch and maple trees surrounding the lake. he never finished the eulogy, never managed to get a word out of his mouth before he was bolting out of the church, pushing through the doors and... sliding across the ice of the lake that claimed his brother's life. here one moment and there another, landon blinked in confusion at his sudden change in surroundings. it had to be a nightmare, that was the only logic his brain could reason with—only it wasn't a nightmare, it was reality and he had somehow travelled almost four hundred miles from new york to vermont in the blink of an eye.
that was the first time landon lowe teleported.
in the beginning landon had very little control over his ability and tried as best as he could to avoid using it. what he did learn quickly however, was that feeling the overwhelming need to escape a situation or location seemed to be what triggered his random teleporting. since being recruited by cerberus corp, he has gained a better control of his teleporting and is now capable of teleporting on command.
drawbacks / vulnerabilities… there are some limitations to landon's power, he isn't able to teleport anywhere he's never been before or at least seen extensive pictures and footage of which requires him to do a lot of recon before his missions otherwise it would be like playing basketball with his eyes closed. while he can teleport long distances, doing so repeatedly can give him vertigo and leave him with dizzy spells for anywhere between fifteen minutes to twelve hours. teleporting with more than one person is also a challenge for him and while he is capable of doing so, it renders him exhausted and fatigued as if he had ran a marathon or carried a refrigerator up a six story walk-up.
cerberus corp… landon was recruited by cerberus after making the headlines and first person accounts were going viral on tiktok and twitter at one of his nightclub's infamous halloween parties about a magician who could teleport! landon was dubious about their sales pitch at first, it all seemed too farfetched even by his new standards but eventually he cautiously accepted their offer—survivors guilt will do that to you. after all, why wouldn't a corperation like cerberus want somebody with his.. talents? in the wrong hands he could make the perfect spy, thief or assassin. the man who doesn't need an invitation or clearance. the possibilities of what he could become were too severe to leave him to his own devices.
codename… it was given to him by one of his superiors. only answers to nomad when it's used by a superior or in the field, otherwise he will give whoever uses his codename the middle finger and won't acknowledge them further until they address him by his birth name.
003. CONNECTIONS
to be added.
004. EXTRA
headcanons...
i. no longer has contact with his family following his brother's death and being recruited by cerberus corp. landon was essentially excommunicated by them and no longer has access to the lowe fortune so every penny he now owns is from his nightclub.
ii. once teleported during his sleep which he learned after being woken up to a string of offensive curses in a language he couldn't understand, only to discover he was in the bathroom of his brother's old apartment and he was completely naked.
iii. owns a popular nightclub named atlas.
iv. landon is a bit of a lone wolf and always requests missions that he can complete by himself and doesn't require a partner or a team. though he won't admit it, this is for everybody's best interest as he is concerned that he will ultimately get somebody else killed like his brother.
more to be added as he is developed.
