Physical Description
Lee is fairly tall and definitely broad, incredibly physically fit both by necessity and because exercise is one of the few stress reliefs that's really reliable in his life. The best word to describe him would probably just be solid.
His face almost doesn't seem to match the rest of his body, at least not entirely; he has surprisingly round cheeks and full lips, lending an air of youthfulness to his features which is helped along by the baby blue eyes and almost cherubic curly blond hair--though he tends to keep his hair cut relatively short in an effort to cut down on this impression.
Personality
Responsible and stoic almost to a fault, Lee isn't exactly the kind of guy you'd invite for a "fun night out". That's not to say he's all business all the time, just...mostly business most of the time.
Though he's not necessarily a standoffish sort of person, he's not really what you'd call friendly either. He's incredibly loyal to and protective of close friends and family, but it takes a bit of work be become included in that select number.
Magic/Abilities
Lee was living with his sister and her husband when Mother began experimenting on his pregnant sister; she didn't really mess with his genes, but she did do something that increased his field of influence a lot.
Of course he doesn't remember this; in fact, he doesn't even remember how small his mordecai field used to be in comparison.
Relationships
Firya and Veran Whitewood: parents, deceased
Layla Strausbury nee Whitewood: sister, deceased
Victor Strausbury: brother-in-law, MIA
Ella Whitewood: niece, living
History
Lee had a typical Edani mordecai upbringing, along with his older sister Layla. Tragically, their parents--both also mordecai--died in a skirmish on the Edanith frontier when Lee was thirteen and Layla was nineteen; that same year, Layla married her mage partner, Victor.
Lee had trained informally with his sister for much of his childhood, but he entered official military training at fifteen...and then his only family, his sister, died a year later in childbirth, just months after her husband was declared MIA on a mission he'd insisted his pregnant wife stay home from.
Layla left Lee pretty much the sole guardian of his newborn niece, called Elinaya for their grandmother. He managed to hire a nanny and some other household help so he could still complete his training, but he was basically a single dad at sixteen, and raising his niece and serving his nation have been his whole life
