Trevor Lefkowitz aka The Magic Finger
Trevor Lefkowitz is a Wall Street stockbroker, the secret admirer of Hetty Woodstone, and a member of the Main Team at Woodstone. He is the superhero, The Magic Finger!
But before he was the Magic Finger, Trevor grew up in New Jersey with his Jewish family where he discovered his telekinetic abilities in his teenage years. Trevor was playing Super Mega Bowl with his younger brother Jeremy where he won and Jeremey said he cheated by giving him a Wet Willy. Teasing his little brother and doing his signature T-Money gesture, Trevor gets up and tells Jeremey it’s time for lunch. Huffing, Jeremey gets up and challenges Trevor to race him down the stairs. He takes it and they both run to the dining room. However, Jeremey almost falls down the stairs and fearing for his brother, Trevor unleashes his powers to stop Jeremy’s fall and sets him gently on the lower floor. Trevor made Jeremy promise not to tell of the incident to their parents, and to this day Jeremey kept his promise.
As Trevor got older, he learnt how to control his power and even used it to pull ghost pranks on people. After he graduated high school, he went to college and later got a job on Wall Street at Lehman Brothers where he got pulled into the playboy life. In his adult years, he got a loyal dog Bucky, who Trevor loves and adores.
At his job, his colleague and “friends” were David Woodstone, Ari Cantor, and Chet with whom they called themselves “The Bros.” They had a newcomer named Pinkus who got a promotion, and they decided to go to Woodstone Mansion while David’s aunt and uncle were gone for vacation. At Woodstone, Trevor drank a lot of alcohol and took two unknown pills, but he didn’t pass out until later on in the night. The Bros dared Pinkus to do the “Run of Fun,” in which he was supposed to run pantless to the city and back. When out of the Bros' sight, Trevor gave Pinkus his pants and underwear so he wouldn’t have to do it, and lied to the Bros that he slept with the hot limo driver.
Later, the alcohol and drugs start to kick in, making Trevor pass out and appear dead. The Bros, fearing that they’ll spend life in prison, threw Trevor’s body in the lake and disappeared into the night. Waking up in water, Trevor quickly swam up to the surface, pulled himself out, and watched his “friends” run off without him before finally passing out. Trevor wakes up to the sun out and a beautiful, orange-curled woman standing over him. “Am I in Heaven?” He asked. The woman chuckled, “Not quite, my pantless fiend.”
The woman introduced herself as Henrietta Woodstone and offered Trevor her husband’s pants, which he didn’t give her permission. The husband in question, Elias, comes outside to see why Hetty was outside and sees her talking to a man who was… wet? Noticing Trevor has the same pants as him, Trevor tells him that they have the same taste and waves the couple goodbye as his dignity is left behind.
After the incident, Trevor left Lehman Brothers, never saw the Bros or Pinkus again and had to look for a new job. One upside is that he gets to see Bucky more often! Plus there’s another upside. Forever grateful to Hetty (and totally not due to a crush on her), Trevor comes back to Woodstone every now and then, often playing pranks on the guests with his telekinetic powers. One day, Hetty caught Trevor using his powers and Trevor tries to play it off as her having ghosts in her house. Blackmailing Trevor by telling him she’ll tell everyone what she saw and “having” video proof, Trevor agrees to follow her and meet people he has never seen before. They all greeted each other and Hetty asked Trevor one question that she asked everyone in the room before him: “Do you have the makings to be a superhero?"
From that day on, Trevor would be the last person to join the Main team and be known as The Magic Finger. Well… not until Sam enters the picture.
