Derek Maza

Derek Maza also known as Talon is Oscar's father and is the leader of the Mutates Clan.

Appearance
Talon's mutate form combines genes from a black panther, a bat and an electric eel with his natural human DNA and has a muscular build.

Personality
Talon has some personality flaws which allowed him to be manipulated by Xanatos in the first place.

He's stubborn and very opinionated, and doesn't like to admit when he's wrong, opting to delude others and himself into believing mistruths.

He refused to listen to Elisa's advice concerning Xanatos, feeling that he had to prove to his family and himself that he has good judgement.

He lets his emotions overrule logic when things turn bad, and he's easily manipulated.

Despite all this, he's kind-hearted, just and charitable, helping others who can't help themselves by providing them with shelter.

He has been able to have a relatively happy life despite the tragedy that has befallen him.

He loves his son very much and is often protective of him.

It was revealed that he doesn't date woman who wanted nowhere to be near his son, which shows how he cares for his son.

He loves Maggie, his new wife and briefly formed a love triangle between her, Him and Brooklyn before Maggie chose Talon.

He made a friendship with Kyle's father Hamato Takeshi who also known as Tiger Claw.

He is still in love with Oscar's mother Ur, which makes his feeling in Maggie turmoil until one day she decides to let Derek be with Ur so that Virgil can be with his real mother.

Powers, Skills and Abilities
He is very strong, can fly and is capable of producing powerful electric blasts.

As a human, Derek Maza was quite skilled at operating aircraft, most notably helicopters such as Xanatos' Helicopter or the Police Helicopter (which he managed to land once despite heavy damage), but he could also fly craft such as a glider and presumably other aircraft as well.

As a mutate he has not had any need or opportunity to use these skills, though it is likely they were useful in enabling him to learn to fly using his new wings, as well as teach the other mutates this skill.

This is perhaps one more reason Xanatos recruited him for the Mutate Project and can shoot electricity out of his hands.

Weapons
None.
