Edgar Allan Phillips is an 18 year old high school graduate who is the son of Milly Star, an exotic dancer turned bar tenderness, and William Phillips, her former husband who is a famed manufacturer of custom-built street rods. Edgar has one sister, Joanna, who is a student at Hixville High school.

Edgar is an artist who lives in a cramped loft apartment above Mr. Nolan’s Used Book Paradise, where he works part time. He spends most of his free time working on his comic book, Manifest Dreamers, or hanging out at one of the Hixville’s local music venues with Mr. Nolan’s daughter, his close friend Eva.

Edgar lived a rather uneventful life until about a week ago, when Edgar discovered that he had the ability to create illusions and temporary objects based on his artwork. That night, as Edgar was returning to his loft, he was attacked by three masked men who were trying to break into the Mr. Nolan’s bookstore. During his struggle, the unusual happened after Edgar found himself staring at a flier he created from his comic, which featured his character Mistress Natasha. As he gazed upon the image, it began to fade then soon after, a woman dressed as the character appeared and fought off his Assailants before vanishing into thin air.

The next day, Edgar revealed what happened during when his attacked to Eva who initially did not believe his story until he demonstrated his ability by making a basket flowers appear in her hands.
