Appearance:
Character:
Terri has a very sweet personality. Growing up, she learned from her parents, mostly her mother, how to be friendly and nice to people, and to be humble. Some times, it was hard for her to be friendly or keep up her sweet personality, especially as bullies were always pestering her, especially in High School. Being a lonely girl who enjoyed reading and searching for things to study over the internet while listening to music certainly didn't help her chances to be accepted. Terri's dad noticed her powers and tried to teach her techniques to calm herself down and to not go overboard with her powers. Having a rather dislike towards her father, she ignored most of his advises and offers to join him at his institute, not wanting to leave her mother alone in England. She never forgave her father for leaving them in England. Terri always uses her powers with carefulness, as she realizes what harm can do to her and the other if she goes overboard, her fear of inadvertently rendering someone invalid leaving her with a natural limitation of her abilities.
Background
Teresa Xavier was born to Maria Xavier (nee Kelsey), a British science teacher, and Charles Xavier, headmaster at the Xavier Institute for gifted Youngsters. When it comes to her early life, Teresa remembers being around her father almost all the time, him always dotting on her and keeping her so close, many times Charles would fall asleep with Teresa in his arms. When Terri was 10, her mother got an offer to teach at a school in London, her hometown. Charles couldn't let his students without guidance and explained it to Maria, and she understood. Terri, however, did not take the news well. She chose to not remain at the institute and rather follow her mother.
That was the turning point in their relationship. Charles would come to visit them, at which point Terri would try and avoid him, by talking walks outside, or stay inside her room and crank the music so loud as to not let her father say anything telepathically to her. By trying to block his words and her crying would make her have very grave migraines, sometimes leaving her on the bed, unable to move or talk. Many times Xavier tried to convince her to join, but Terri kept refusing.
At school, things didn't fair any well either. Being the girl that stood at home most of the time, quiet and smiley all the time made her the favorite target for bullies. One day, when a bully started to mess with her very badly, she yelled "STOP PICKING ON ME!" at which point the bully fell back clutching his head, as her anger and memories surged into his memory. Terri fell as well, a pain that was so severe that she could not move or see clearly. Many memories that were not hers surged through her mind. She woke up in the nurse's office, her mother watching over her.
Charles heard about this incident, and took her to the institute with her mother's permission, holding her there for 6 months, for training. There, she met and formed a friendship with Finn Wagner. When she returned back home, she kept contact with Finn. At school, there were rumors that Terri was crazy and was sent for therapy. But, she kept her head high, still having her happy demeanor. The bully she had unwillingly mind blasted avoided her, almost ran when she passed him in the halls.
Graduating from high school, Terri chose to study psychology, and found a college she liked in New York State, and studied psychology. She finished her masters there, and enrolled to study for her Phd, when she met and befriended another fellow mutant, Morgan, a freshman at the same college. She took a liking to her, and started to help her keep her powers under control.

Strengths
- Advanced knowledge of psychology.
- Can retain information easily, as a bi-product of her powers.
- Loyal to the end to her friends.
Weaknesses
- Very poor physical condition - cannot withstand hand-to-hand combat.
- Headaches - after using her powers for extended periods of time, her headaches become present, and, as she goes on, the headaches amplify, having the possibility of throwing her unconscious.
- Poor training - refusing to listen to her father, her powers are not finely tuned, and she can barely control them.
Powers
- Mind Blast : Can bombard the target with information, on the downside of having rather powerful headaches herself due to not being able to control the information coming and going.
- Mind Alteration : Can alter some memories slightly, like change the color of a shirt or a maximum of 2 words in one text.
- Mind Link : the ability to develop a mental link with any person within range (Any visible range, if Terri can see them in her line of sight, she can link with them - if they're 3 miles down a field, she can link them but it hurts and requires longer to form) for a small period of time.
Other
- Terri loves old music, and listens to them to calm down sometimes.
- She has a sidecut which she always shows by parting he hair to her left side, and placing the hair in a ponytail.
