Prof

Character from Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson

The founder of the Reckoners — a former science teacher who built a resistance movement against Epics while hiding the most dangerous secret in the world: he is one.

Also known as: Jonathan Phaedrus, Limelight, Prof

What They Know

• HIGH EPIC with three power sets: tensor disintegration (vaporizes inorganic matter), force field projection (including a prime invincibility second-skin field), and healing/regeneration
• Channels his powers through technology to avoid using them directly — tensors, harmsway, and jackets are all delivery mechanisms for HIS gifted abilities
• Founded the Reckoners and built cells across multiple cities — the largest organized resistance against Epic rule
• His weakness is the fear of failure — reminding him of his failures temporarily negates his powers
• Corrupted by the Darkness after Regalia manipulated him into using powers directly — becomes 'Limelight,' the main antagonist of Calamity
• Former colleague of Regalia (Abigail Reed) — they were part of a group of Epics who tried to use their powers for good before the Darkness took the others
