Jonathan Hive (Jonathan Tipton-Clarke)

Created by: Daniel Abraham

Jonathan “Bugsy” Tipton-Clarke is an ace, though some people consider him a joker, who can turn his body into a swarm of green wasps at will. He can either shift his entire body into wasps or simply spawn small numbers at a time. He can also see from the wasps’ perspective, and is able to juggle multiple wasp perspectives concurrently.

When one of Jonathan’s wasps die he feel as the pain as a small pinch, and he will eventually regrow the body parts the wasps made up. However, if Jonathan shifts completely into wasps and loses too many too quickly, he will not be able to reform his body. The wasps are also vulnerable to ambient temperature extremes, due to the vastly increased surface area of Jonathan’s body when fragmented. Even a quick flight through freezing conditions can leave him hypothermic when he reforms.
