Mallory Sutton is an old military veteran, the only woman of the Sutton family to not get married and instead spends most of her time either working, or spoiling her nieces and nephews while she can. A classical suburban wine aunt who prefers to spend time on the couch, drinking and watching the children do stupid things. She's a firm believer that life lessons come when you do dumb things like putting your hand on a hot stove but is willing to step in to prevent somebody from accidentally killing themselves.

One of the unfortunate civilians to get caught in the crossfire in the first Slaughterhouse 9 visit to Brockton Bay, and one of the fortunate ones to survive with very little harm. She triggered during the attack but managed to escape the ensuing destruction. Her powers allow her to restrict a person's ability to do one thing, while allowing her to increase their power elsewhere. This affects both powers as well as basic and abstract attributes about people, so the most that she typically does to use her power is restrict her student's stage fright and increase their acting talent. She's capable of affecting powers, people, different attributes about people, and the more that she restricts the greater the power or boost elsewhere she is capable of giving. She's unfortunately rather vulnerable as a parahuman because she can't affect herself.

She works as the drama teacher for Arcadia Highschool in the Bay, and during the summer months works for a small theatre to put on shows. Mallory is extremely passionate about acting, and when she was younger wanted nothing more than her time as a Hollywood superstar. She's pretty aware that times has passed for the most part, even if somewhere inside she holds out a little hope that she would get her chance to shine. Although it's a bit difficult on the other side of the country and her reluctance to leave her family played a large part in why she never took off for California.

Mallory's pretty content with what she has and has put aside her wants in order to help her brothers and sisters take care of the large family. She's also rather worried for one of her nieces, although understands the need for space and to grow up. Mallory is a beloved member of her family, and loved by her students for her relaxed attitude, having seen too much to be anything other than amused at some of the antics of high-schoolers.
