IC: Kevin McDass
Kevin walked trying to avoid people until he saw someone playing a PSP, ever since he was a kid Kevin had hated electronics and people who walked around with them. "Go and have a conversation with a real person," he had always thought. Kevin silently walked over to the kid and stole the game.
He looked at the screen and was surprised to find a picture of another kid. Kevin looked at him and threatend to turn the game off, saying "what happens if i shut it off." Kevin hoped he wouldnt realzie that he wouldn't.

Karra
Xavier Mansion Roof
Karra watched as Hermes came closer towards the mansion. She watched as he flew so gracefully, folding his wings for a short while, dropping a ways before opening them again and finishing a decent to the roof, or rather just above it where Karra hovered waving. He beat his wings to stop, and hovered with her for a moment before finishing a short drop to the roof.
Even though she could fly herself, she loved watching the huge wings work their magic. "So Karra," Hermes said upon touchdown, "Why aren't you down there with the others?" he asked, jerking his head towards the group on the lawn.
Karra frowned, as she looked out over the group. "I am NOT a newbie." she said, before giving a heavy sigh, and turning back to look at Hermes. "I already have had enough 'incidences' today with abilities gone wrong. Since I got my new room, I decided to finish fixing it up, before classes started back up. Everyone else is so busy, lately." She smiled, as she sat down on a small bench. "Besides, since Professor N'dare has been so busy, I keep an eye on the new defense stuff too. Gives me something else to think of." She gave another small sigh, as she shruged her shoulders.

**GM Approved**
Alias: Déjà Vu
Real Name: Jason Michael Grey
Date of Birth: August 3, 1987
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Height: 6’0
Weight: 190 lbs
Eyes: Grey
Hair: Short brown hair
Family: Michael Grey (Father), Vickie Grey (Mother)
Marital Status: Single
Species: Mutant
Nationality: Caucasian and Asian
Team: X-Men
Base of Operations: Mobile
Ability: Photographic Reflexes: Jason has the ability to perfectly copy one’s movement just by watching them. This has caused him to become a very capable fighter. This ability is completely dependent on sight, and restricted to physical motions. He has become increasingly skilled with a bo staff as he has watched several instruction tapes and martial arts matches.
Gravitakinesis/Gyrokinesis: The ability to manipulate and generate gravitons and control gravitational interactions. So far Jason can only use this power to fly or to cause objects to either move away or toward him.
Eyes can automatically adjust to see in extremely bright or dark environments.
Appearance: Jason’s Appearance
Other Special Features: Very skilled in hand to hand and weapon combat.
Personality: Jason is usually a pretty nice guy. He is very kind and he loves meeting new people. He hates to see people suffer unless of course he’s making them do it.
Weapons: Bo Staff
History/Background: Jason was born in a small town right outside of Hong Kong. His father was an American diplomat and his mother was a local at the town he was staying in. The two fell in love and got married. After having Corey they moved to Los Angeles near China Town.
Jason had a pretty normal childhood up until his 15th birthday party. While Jason was in the basement getting chairs the power suddenly went out. A gun shot rang from upstairs and screams and could be heard from everywhere. Suddenly he heard the basement door creak open and footsteps slowly walk down the steps. The lights in the basement suddenly came on and a masked gunman stood before him. As fear began to overwhelm and consume him Jason caused the gravity around the man to disappear and as he flew into the air the gravity rose increasingly and the man was sent crashing to the floor.
His parents were very supportive of his powers. His father often had Jason help him with his police work whenever he could. As Jason grew he learned he could copy other people’s movement’s almost instantly just by watching them. But Jason’s mom was more concerned about his powers one day getting out of hand. So she decided to have Jason sent to New York to attend Xavier’s Institute for Higher Learning.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IC: Jason Grey
Outside Xavier's School For Gifted Youngsters
It was a beautiful day in upstate New York. The weather was a little chillier than he was used to being from California. Jason's mind began to drift to the reason he was there in the first place. His mom wanted him to be somewhere safe for his kind since L.A. was like a zoo for criminals. From what he had recently heard New York could've been just as bad. Approaching the gates to the address he was given he saw a couple people waiting to get in. I must not be the only new recruit then, he thought.
"Hi I'm Jason, he said as he approached the two. "You guys new here also?"

"You know, you should leave this security stuff to us grown ups and go down there and be a bloody kid. Best years of your life and all that...it's true ya know. After this...your whole world goes to hell in a hand basket." He grinned. She'd seen more in the past months than most adults whould ever see, even in a movie.
"Really though...Why don't you go down there and make some new friends....worried about your powers still?"

IC: Grant Webber (The Multiplier)
Giving his thumbs a workout on the PSP as he continued to play Tony Hawk's Underground 2 Remix, Grant was shocked at how he had forgotten how much the game rocked so hard that it made his neighbor's deaf.
But suddenly, the game was interrupted and the screen transformed into a man's face with blue eyes and blond hair that curled a bit at the ends. "What the hell!?" Grant said, pulling his head away from the small electronic device.
"Hi," said the teenager. "Name's Jeff...don't worry, I saved your game. So, whaddaya do, y'know, what's your mutation?"
Did this man really think that Grant would just impart onto him his ability without seeing him man-to-man, not man-to-pixel? "Why don't you come out of there, then we can talk."

IC: James Webber (The Anomaly)
"Could you hold on one moment please?"
"Sure," said James. He looked around, saw a kid with his arm wrapped around a tree, and chuckled softly. I guess Kristin's the nanny of this place, he thought to himself.
He looked over at his brother Grant and saw him... talking to his PSP? He knew that his brother kept to himself a lot, but he didn't know that he talked to his own gaming machines. James could only hope that there was a rational purpose.

Rain
Back Lawn
Noticing that he had been noticed, he quickly snapped back to reality. He smiled at the statement, which was actually true. He was a gardener, kind of odd for a guy, but it was something that he had a nag for. "Yep, plants and animals." he said smiling. He stood up, vines crawling down his arm. He didn't notice it, but the vines soon covered his whole entire right arm. "I am Michael Kerpatrick, but you can call me Rain." he said, replying. He had no clue as to what to do in the school, since he had only gotten there.
Unknowingly, ice crawled up his left arm. He was nervous, and shy, so his powers started to show. He noticed that his arm tickled, and looked down at his arms. Instantly, the ice melted, well, slowly, not instantly. Instead of the vines retracting, he allowed them to stay there since it wasn't that big of a deal.

Grant's PSP
Why don't you come out of there, then we can talk," the mutant asked.
Jeff was about to respond, when the PSP was snatched by another student."What happens if i shut it off?"
"I'd like to see you try," Jeff responded, he willed the power button to be completely usesless right now. The newcomer could press it as hard as he liked, and it wouldn't do much good. Ahh, consumer electronics, he thought, not that he was really familiar with anything beyond the run of the mill stuff, but he could get into most PCs almost as easily as he could possess a toaster. "Now, if you don't mind, I was talking to the owner of this PSP."

"Maybe ill just destroy it could you still get out then," smirked at the screen. Kevin Brought the PSP above his head like he was going to fling it to the ground, but he paused and waited to see what the Techno-maniac could do.

IC: Grant Webber (The Multiplier)
Grant stared hard at the Mutant who had deliberately plucked the PSP from his hands. Suddenly, he got up from his seat, but yet he still remained seated. There were two of him. Another Grant got out of his seat, then another, then another, and then the real Grant lifted himself from his seat so that there were five Grants standing before the thief.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," said all five Grants in unison.
Did Grant favor his PSP considerably enough to cause a scene on his first day at the Xavier Institute? No. Did he care about someone deliberately stealing his own possession for their own good? Hell yeah!

IC: Bo Black aka Blackjack Xavier Institute: Lawn
Bo had just left his new room when he ran across a few of his fellow new students talking about living in the mansion. One was a young man that he didn't give too much thought to because of the beautiful young lady next to him. Bo thaought this was a perfect oppertunity to introduce himself.
"Howdy, name's Bo Black. What's yours pretty little lady?" Bo said in his thick Tennessee accent as he extended a a rather friendly handshake. Bo was so taken with her that he nearly forgot about the other guy.
"Oh yeah, name's Bo Black, how you doin' partner?" Bo asked the other young man as he was on his way over to his big, blue, Hemi Dodge Ram pickup.

IC:Brandon(Frostbite)Drake
Calgary,Alberta, Canada
"I'm tired", Brandon had been on the slopes all day, and as he walked in the door to his humble apartment.(Which wasn't that far from the lodge) All day Brandon's mind was focused on his deceased family and the fact that he really didn't have a place in this world. Mutants were hated and feared, but the fact was that he was one of them, "I can't change the fact that I can control Ice, but because of this I am hated and feared. No one could possibly accept me for who I am, he thought to himself.
"The only thing that has kept me sane was my faith, and the hope that someday I'll meet my father, but all I have to go on is a name, Robert Drake," He had heard his mother metion this name once before. He really had no knowledge of who his father really was. "I've got to find him, just to know if that he was as.....different.. as I am." Brandon held on to his hope of finding where his father went, and more important, where Brandon could restart his life.
When Brandon was alone he would let his feelings out, it was the only time he would. "I've got a few friends at the ski resort, but they could never understand the truth, "I couln't tell them even if I wanted to", his thoughts exhausted him as he dropped on the couch, before he fell asleep he made a vow to himself right then and there, I..promise...to find...my dad...and......to fill the voids in my life...All of ..them.... His voice trailed off as he fell asleep.

IC: Daniel Chalmers AKA Wolf
Somewhere in New York
Wolf silently cursed to himself, he hadn't been in the country more than a few hours and already he had attracted the wrong kind of attention. He had left the terminal after his long flight from Melbourne and caught a cab into the middle of the city. Wolf had never left Australia before and was looking forward to seeing the "big Apple", yet from the start he had noticed the stares. He could understand that, as he was hardly inconspicuous with his long steel grey hair mixed with his young face and nearly feral appaerance no one could mistake him for anything other than what he was, a "mutant".
As he walked down a busy downtown thoroughfare, his heightened hearing picked up the increasing amount of whispers and jibes about his appearance. Several times he had confronted people who were astounded that he could hear them, but one glare from his golden eyes and barely consealed snarl usually sent them into a stammering silence. This time however a large group of young men had followed him down a side street as he managed to get himself lost for the third time in a row. he could feel them getting closeer to him, and his nose twitched as he picked up the mingled scent of alcohol and contempt, he also picked up a thin sliver of fear from the group as he spun to face them. They had thrown the usual joke at him "get a hair cut" and "whats wrong with your eyes" were some of the oh so original material Wolfs rapidly disappearing patience had to deal with.
However it was when one particularly bold one insulted his mother that he snapped "If you lot dont bugger off i'll make you rue the day your fathers saw your mothers" he spat through a snarl that bared the long incisors pointing from his upper jaw. the closest one began to make another joke, but it was cut off with a scream as Wolfs razor sharp claws raked across his face. The group attacked, but he was ready he leapt and spun sending a heel kick into someones face that shattered his jaw with a loud crack, he moved dodging and blocking with ferocious speed as he tore into the group. Men feel with shattered kneecap's and cheekbones as Wolf's punches, kicks and elbow's found their marks. Soon it was over with all but one lying on the group moaning in agony, he grabbed the last by the throat and hoisted him against a walk so the terrified mans shoes were a full foot off the alley floor.
The mans terror quivered in Wolfs nose as he claws slowly drew blood from where they bit into the mans skin. He fought to control the anger and animal urges that flowed through his body, every nerves screaming for him to tear the mans throat out. He pulled the man close so his fangs were centimeters from his ear, "I warned you" he growled on a low whisper, and without warning he spun throwing the man across the alley into a doorway that he crashed through with a sickening thud. Disgusted with the men and his own lack of control he loped out of the darkened alleyway and into the street.
