Character from Super Powereds by Drew Hayes
The original Intra — a Hero with complete body control who was murdered by his best friend Globe under blackmail, whose death created the chain of consequences that drives the entire series.
Joshua Taylor was Globe's best friend and Chad's father. He had the same power as Chad — complete molecular control of his own body — and he was one of the Class of Legends' finest Heroes. Charles Adair blackmailed Globe into killing him, and that murder is the inciting incident for everything in the series. Globe's fall, Chad's emotional suppression, Dean Blaine's guilt, the Powered conversion program, the conspiracy — all of it traces back to the moment Globe was forced to choose between Joshua and something Charles held over him. Joshua exists as a ghost in the series — never seen alive, but his absence shapes everyone who knew him.
Before his death, physically impressive in the way Chad would grow to be — perfect posture, controlled movement, the body of someone with molecular mastery. He is remembered through photographs and the legacy his son carries.
