Malik is slightly muscular as a result of his training from his father. However, the structure of his body can't be seen with his clothes on.

In these dire situations where his friends are losing focus, fighting with each other, or don't know what to do, he calms them down and tries to think of a plan to turn it around. Malik is very intellectual, having much knowledge of other things in the world. These subjects include geography, history, natural laws of nature, technology, chemistry, grammar, art, astrology, and mythology. This quality of his makes him able to devise strategies and tactics in battle. Malik is also quick to understand what others are trying to imply, such as a goal or simple answer to a question.

The boy may have a calm personality, but he does have a temper. It's very hard to get him angry, as he is always calm and stays collected when someone insults him or even hits him, but in certain situations, his temper will explode to the surface. He gets a furious look in his eyes and becomes fierce. Despite him usually being quite, he can raise his voice to a louder than usual volume, so other will hear him. He may not know it, but Malik can be very courageous. Whether it's a witch, demon, or anything else fearsome, he'll stand his ground, especially for his friends and family.

HISTORY: Malik was born in Baltimore, Maryland, into a family of psychics. His mother and father are have the ability control a respective element of their own through their energy. Their names are Monique and Cortez Roberts. As a little boy, Malik has always been interested in the psychics as well as the supernatural. His mother would tell him stories of the adventures she and his father had in the afternoon and at night as bedtime stories. His father would even show some entertaining tricks with his powers. His mother would also pitch in. At seeing their trick, Malik smiled and complimented them. This would bring smiles to their faces. Malik has a younger brother and younger sister, who are also psychics. However, they still have yet to awaken their powers.

Unlike other psychics, the Roberts Family member's powers awake when in their teen years. Malik grew up being a normal boy until he was a teenager, which proves further the awakening of the Roberts Family abilities. His parents often hid their powers from regular humans as to blend in and keep their family heritage a secret from society. The family members were often educated on the basics of psychic abilities. In his childhood, Malik wondered when he would get his powers. At the age of 10, he asked his mother and father when he will be getting abilities of his own. They told him that a psychic of the Roberts Family usually get their powers when they became teenagers usually starting from age 14. This means that Malik had to wait a good number of years before his abilities manifests. The boy was very patient, so he can handle being normal longer. It's rare for members of their family to develop powers at an earlier age such as 13 or younger. In that time, Malik had dreams of being a hero, using his powers for good and protecting the innocent from evil.

When Malik was still at the age of 10, his father got a job as a scientist in Tokyo Japan. This meant his family had to move the city within the country and to adjust to the interesting lifestyle. He also had to learn the japanese language. It was of little difficulty mastering. This also meant that Malik had to attend different schools, such as a japanese junior high school. Through the rest of his childhood, Malik was very happy along with his family. Still, with two psychics as his parents, an interesting surprise will befall Malik in his teen years.

When he turned 15, he began showing signs of having powers. The first time they began manifesting was when he was studying. The lamp on his desk beside him began flickering. Following the flicker were electrical sparks appearing on his hands along with electricity coursing around his body. Malik called for his parents to come in to have them see what was happening. When they arrived, they were shocked to see their son has finally developed powers of his own. Cortez also felt a sense of pride for him. Shortly after, the flickering of the lamp stopped and the electricity soon disappeared from Malik's body. His father asked for him to come downstairs, so he can explain. He asked him if he remembers the time he asked him and Monique about when he would develop powers. Malik nodded and soon came to realized that what happened earlier were his powers awakening. His father explained that people like them all have unique abilities, but for him he inherited his father's powers. This helped cleared why his family's powers were so similar when looking through their heritage.

A year has gone by since Malik's powers manifested. At the age of 16, he was enrolled in high school. During that year, he was trained by his father, since he possesses electrical powers as well. Through this training, Malik had learned many uses for his powers. This was to prepare him for the many evil beings he will face in the near future. This was also to help him on achieving his dream. He hopes to one day use his powers for good and protect the innocent from evil. True, there were good people with interesting powers, but there were also villains who use their own abilities to harm others for either personal gain or pleasure. Powers or not, there are evil beings walking around in the world, plotting deviously on how to dominate or to spread chaos. Malik hears or sees a villain causing trouble, he'll use his powers to stop them and help the innocent.
