Maybe this?
Given Name: Samuel Jorganson
Super Name: Moonwalker
Powers: Moonwalker can manipulate and create gravity fields within 10 meters of himself. This can be used to make objects (or himself) float, stick to walls or ceilings, or even fly. The mass he can manipulate, and by how many Gs, varies depending on his concentration. This power has a wide range of applications, from flight, to lifting and throwing heavy objects, to subduing a criminal by pinning him to a wall. He also uses a simple quarterstaff as a weapon, rather than a bladed or ranged weapon which have better killing potential.
However, Moonwalker must remain calm when using his abilities. Emotions can interfere with his powers in unpredictable - and often dangerous - ways, and strong emotions like anger or hate can even temporarily rob him of them. His innate spirituality helps, but he's only human and can only be pushed so far.
Background: Samuel was raised in a monastery after being abandoned as an infant. From the monks, he learned about inner peace, defending the helpless, and how to live simply. When Samuel's powers began to manifest around puberty, the abbot took personal responsibility for his training. Samuel was groomed to be a champion of the downtrodden, to never take an unnecessary life, to be the steady mountain in the middle of a storm.
Eventually it became time to leave his lifelong home. The brothers presented him with a handcrafted costume and staff and bade him good luck. Samuel traveled to [insert city name here], took up residence in an abandoned cottage on slopes of the nearby mountain, and took up the name Moonwalker.
