History: Phillip Masters was born in the nation of Transia at the base Wundagore Mountain. His mother was an alcoholic and his father was often very distant as he struggled to provide for his family. As a child his grandmother told him legends from the 6th Century about how the demon Chthon had been trapped within the mountain, tainting the land. As a young boy, Phillip's Uncle Andrew gave him a knife and a piece of wood and Phillip immediately took to carving things out of wood. Eventually he moved onto sculpting things in clay which he found near the base of Wundagore Mountain. The more Phillip used the clay the more it affected his mind, making him want to sculpt with it more often as it slowly eroded his sanity. As a boy, masters often played with young Jessica Drew whose parents worked with geneticist Herbert Wyndham, until one day, Jessica fell ill from radiation poisoning and was spirited away by her family for treatment. By the age of eight, Phillip's parents emigrated to the United States. While Phillip continued to sculpt and carve with materials from his homeland, Masters easily assimilated into his new life in America. However despite this, Phillip was frequently bullied by his classmates. When Phillip's mother died, Phillip turned to the dolls he made as an escapism from his tormentors. Following the death of his wife, Phillip's father was unable to find work and be able to support his son and was forced to put the boy in an orphanage. Phillip feeling more alone than ever retreated even more into his love of sculpting clay. Records pertaining to Phillip's life following his placement in an orphanage are largely unrecorded. The next notable record states that he attended college and pursued studies in biology. It was during this time that he befriended Jacob Reiss and Marcia Deaton who attended the same college. Phillip and Jacob became roommates, and one day, they crossed paths with a woman calling herself Alicia Clay, who warned Jacob that Phillip was going to kill him in the future. Unable to convince Jacob of this, Alicia fled their apartment. Masters followed after her and confided in her the dark feelings he gets when he carves his clay. Alicia then had Phillip to promise to be strong and try not to hurt Jacob and his family in the future. Phillip promised and ran off into the night. However, either Phillip was lying or was unable to control himself, as tragedy would soon come to pass. By the time they had graduated, Reiss had married Marcia and entered into a partnership with Phillip to try and commercialize the special clay Philip brought from his homeland. Many years later, the Reiss family gave birth to a daughter named Alicia.
During their early work together, Phillip and Reiss briefly worked with scientist Alexei Ganger to try to cure the world's ills. Phillip and Jacob started a business in the town of Watershed Lake utilizing the clay that Phillip had been using for years. However Phil eventually grew jealous of Jacob and his ideal life and soon became enraged enough to try and sabotage the company out of spite. Seeing the lights at their laboratory on that night, Jacob went to investigate. Phillip attacked his partner and during the fight Phillip knocked Jacob into a vat of clay causing a massive explosion. While Phillip was knocked clear, Jacob's wife and child were waiting in the car and went to check on him just as the lab exploded. While Marcia was unharmed, Alicia was blinded as a result of the blast. Phillip kept the cause of Jacob's death a secret, telling his grieving family that he had died in an accident. Following the funeral for Jacob, Phillip married Marcia and both she and Alicia took his name. Recalling how Alicia was an avid painter prior to her blindness, Phillip then began teaching her how to sculpt. However Marcia soon died as well due to the radioactive isotopes that were involved in the blast that killed her husband. While Alicia grew to adulthood and became a noted sculptor, Phillip was heartbroken due to the death of Marcia and withdrew. Phillip soon discovered that when sculpting clay from his homeland he was able to take control of their bodies, for many years he claimed that this was due to the fact that the clay was radioactive, however given the childhood stories he heard from his grandmother this may have been a deception. At some point, Phillip returned to his homeland and secured a large amount of clay from Transia for the purposes of starting a criminal career and creating an empire for his foster daughter Alicia.
Now calling himself the Puppet Master, Phillip will stop at nothing in his plans to give his beloved Alicia the empire she deserves.
Equipment: Atomic/Psychic Clay
Powers: By means of a special method he has developed, the Puppet Master may mentally control the minds of others. The process requires him to carve and colour an effigy of his intended victim from radioactive clay brought from Wundagore Mountain in his native Transia. Once the effigy resembles a specific individual, he can grasp it and actively control the real person’s body and mind. By physically manipulating the figure, he can cause his victim to perform identical movements. Such cases cause the victims to retain consciousness but lose control of their bodies. The Puppet Master can even control a person by simply grasping the effigy and concentrating on it. This enables him to perform more complex feats. He is able to blot out a victim’s mind, alter the victim’s memory, and force them to perform complex activities. Generally he can control only a single individual at one time. Initially he has stated countless times that his clay is radioactive, however later sources indicate that the Puppet Master is aware of the mystical properties of his clay, suggesting that perhaps he calls the clay radioactive to throw off his opponents. This type of clay can also be found on Mesa City.
Abilities: The Puppet Master is an expert in the field of biology. He is also an excellent toymaker and sculptor specializing in portraiture.
Weaknesses: Mortal. Not good in a fight.
Trivia:
-Banner's creature still wonders why the Puppet Master's voice reminds him of someone.
-He's 5'6" tall.
