The Academy


Alius Academy is a campus situated in the middle of nowhere. It is surrounded by forest, as well as a nearby lake, requiring a twelve-hour drive to get to the nearest city. This academy is so isolated because it is a place for those with mutations. No, not those with random powers like in "X-Men", but everyone here has some biologically explainable . . . difference, that makes ordinary living anywhere from mildly challenging to nigh-on impossible. The campus has every possible facility that could be needed, and has students ranging from pre-school all the way to college prep. Some students are found and offered an invitation, others are forced by their caretakers, still others come looking deliberately for the campus. One way or another, the academy strives to offer ways of "normal" living to those who are unique. Some see this as a blessing, while others view it as nothing more than a decorative cage. So what's you're story?

[
Spoiler=Facilities]


Dorms

There are 6 separate dorm buildings on campus. Three for men, and three for women. These are separated by age category. Anyone below the age of 10 are put into the first set of dorms, which has full-time staff to watch out for the younger students. Older students may also volunteer to work at these particular buildings. Anyone ages 10 to 14 is put into the second set of dorms. These are less fully-staffed than the first set, but still have clock-round surveillance. Anyone above the age of 14 is put into the final set of dorms, which are for the most-part school governed by the older students. Each dorm room contains an ample living area, beds for two, a bathroom, and a small kitchen. In addition, most rooms are altered as occupants change, catering to the unique needs of each occupant. While the school does try and keep room mates within a year of each other, first and foremost they look for compatibility between mutations. In rare cases, students will be assigned a room outside of the dorm they would usually be assigned if a pairing of mutations works together in a living space well enough

Supplemental Facilities

Anyone below the age of 10 are put into the first set of dorms, which has full-time staff to watch out for the younger students.

In rare cases, students will be assigned a room outside of the dorm they would usually be assigned if a pairing of mutations works together in a living space well enough.

Dining Facilities

For food there is court that contains several different varieties of restaurant services. These range from standard fast-food fare all the way to chinese or french cuisine. In addition, there is also a "grocery store" of sorts, that holds raw ingredients that students can take in limited quantities. These can be brought to the dorms, where students may fix their own meals with the kitchen provided. Students even have the option of installing a small "garden" area within their rooms, should they wish to grow fresh vegetables or similar.

Physical Activity Facilities

There is a massive gym on campus, with different facilities for every possible sport you could think of. This building also has several fields outside that are considered part of the gym. The gym includes no less than: A massive pool heated year-round, a full set of diving platforms, weight training room, boxing ring, training Dojo, full-sized track, multiple courts for every kind of ball sport (basketball, tennis, volleyball, etc.), a full football field, a baseball diamond, full gymnastics equipment, treadmills/other electronic work-out machines, and a playground. These are all open 24-7.

Entertainment

There are a few remaining buildings dedicated solely to entertainment purposes. These are mostly situated in two large buildings. One is essentially a giant shopping mall, with stores for clothes, games, stuffed toys, accessories, basically anything a student would want/need to go and get. The other two are more specialized, offering things like an arcade, a movie theater, etc

Medical and Technical Research Facilities

Often referred to by students as simply "The lab", this is easily the largest building on campus. It holds two stories above ground, but then holds another five beneath the surface. This building is a massive technological hub, holding the latest medical and testing equipment. It's primary use is that of a hospital, as the academy lies far from any medical help and most students have special operational requirements. It also is a place for study. Students will often have blood taken or have their DNA scanned, which is then examined here. This allows the academy to better understand the mutations of its student body. This is then utilized for their purpose of simulating a "normal" life as well as kept for possible medical needs.

Grounds

The grounds of Alius Academy are MASSIVE. It holds all the buildings described above with plenty of room for greenery and space. There are several walkways leading through groves of sorts, which many students like to relax upon. There is also a service by the lake which allows students to go out on boats for a set period of time. Alternatively, some just choose to swim in the lake. There is also a huge tree in the middle of campus. This is decorated during school events, and often a hub of student activity.

Faculty


The staff of Alius Academy is rather expansive, having multiple buildings to house all of them. These are generally hired personally by people close to the headmaster. A large portion of the academy's faculty are actually former students of Alius, choosing to stay and help those that followed behind them. There are basic cleaning and cooking staff, only the best, in addition to the expected educational staff. There are also several faculty members with connections outside, working with students to help get them on their hopeful career path. Finally, there is a sizable disciplinary staff, well-equipped to make sure any disruptive incidents can be quelled without it spreading. Many of these are alumni of the school, sporting their own mutations.


At the top of all this is the Headmaster, who nobody really knows much about. The only things known for fact about him are the following. One: He is very wealthy. Two: He has a significant amount of political power, as well as many connections. Three: When he wants something done, it gets done, no questions asked. But no student has seen his face or heard him talk.


Academy Rules


The Academy has a 253 page rulebook holding all the specific rules and regulations, specified in such a way that there are no uncertain terms. However, most students only really worry about the following:


-Nightly curfew: This is mostly for the younger populace, older students can stay outside in the late hours of the night, so long as they don't get into too much trouble. Younger members are expected to be in their dorms, and the youngest are expected to be asleep.


-Respect the staff: The faculty respect you, so respect them back. Foul treatment of the academy's staff are met with harsh punishment.


-Keep personal fights personal: Violence is of course frowned upon, but Alius academy knows it's impossible to stop all the scuffles that break out on campus. It is recommended that these be settled in one of the offered dojos or in an isolated area of the grounds, but keep them to yourself. There have been times where the disciplinary staff stepped in because too many people became involved.


-MOST IMPORTANT: You do not leave campus without expressive permission from the management staff. You must also be picked up by a recognized guardian, who is responsible for watching you while outside of campus grounds. Those who leave campus without permission are met with harsh punishment. Some who show blatant disregard for such rules are never heard from again.


Academy Activities


Educational functions are held Monday-Friday as you would expect. Higher grades have some flexibility with this, but it is normally the case. Every weekend there is a sporting event(s) of some kind, where students who practice on a regular basis form teams and compete while other members of the student body are free to watch. There is also the campus-wide athletics event. This occurs three times a year, where the educational facilities shut down for a period of one week while the entire student body engages in friendly competition. In december, there is a massive holiday celebration, where students are given two weeks off (should they wish it), as well as dancing, gift-giving, and an increase in the average student's body weight. Come spring, there is a celebration of the academy's founding that lasts for three days.


Roleplay Rules


-RPNation Site rules as always


-No god modding, metagaming, or bunnying


-You may make as many characters as you want, but they must all be active (I would recommend no more than three)


-Please keep both violence and romance to a PG-13 level. Nothing excessively gory, and please "fade to black" should nature take its course

-Name: Sainclair


-Age: 17


-Gender: No one's quite sure, it doesn't help that Sainclair switches between the two on a whim.


-Grade: 11


-Years spent at Academy: a dozen, give or take


-Mutation: Unstable biochemistry, believed to be brought on by a rare strain of cancer cells, rendered Sainclair the ability to alter their body on a molecular structure, akin to what a shifter may be able to do if such a thing truly existed.


-Side Effects: Any sort of radiation could have a number of effects on Sainclair, unable to sleep for extended periods, has a large appetite to compensate for energies spent. (can have spells similar to diabetics)


-Skills: Perceptive, analytical, good at blending in or standing out as need be.


-Personality: Sainclair is a fun cookie to crack. General attitude is calm, cool, relaxed. They aren't very emotional, but get a rise of others getting overly emotional, or reactions in general. Inclined to cause trouble or conflict, yet can't always be connected to the trouble they stirred up. Can actually get along with those that have some smarts, as long as they have a sense of humor, but pretty much everyone's a target to their amusement.


-History before Academy: Child to a single mother, grew up in a poor area, under fed, all the fun goodies that come with barely getting by. Father unknown, least for all extensive purposes, though men have been around, some more than others. At first discovered an illness, one much like cancer. Mother fought for child, trying to get insurance to help, only for a doctor to realize there was more going on... Sainclair was removed from their home not a week later.


-History at Academy: I stand to assume Sainclair to be one of the long standing students so if there's anyone that wants to work a history send me a message. I doubt there would be many students that don't know Sainclair in one way or another if they have been with the school prior to story begin.


As far as history within the school... Sainclair is a known trouble maker. Nothing major, but enough that if something goes wrong they're on the short list of suspects.


-Appearance: Typical or default appearance, results may vary. http://i.imgur.com/Pz14jjn.jpg

-Name: Cyan Planetes


-Age: 16


-Gender: Female


-Grade: 10th, Junior


-Years spent at Academy: 9 years


-Mutation:


Her skin, nerves, lungs and bones were genetically enhanced to give her the ability to hold herself in more conditions than what was believed to count as humanly possible. She can withstand harsh conditions, including most natural disasters and can heal 2.5% faster than a normal human being.


-Side Effects:


She isn't able to feel many things, and doesn't know what the terms soft or hard or rough really mean. All she knows is that there air times when she is either in huge pain or can't feel any pain.


-Skills:


Cyan is good at moving quickly for a long amount of time. She can't move at an unnatural speed, bcan be as fast as an Olympic Runner at times.


-Personality:


Cyan is a very stubborn, block-headed girl who wants to win everything she does. In other words, yes our good friend Cyan is a not-too-successful perfectionist. One of the best things about Cyan is that she will continue to work hard at something until she can do as well as anyone. She takes challenges against her very serious, and will often do things that she'd regret later without thinking.


Cyan is horrible at baking, because she has no sense of taste, but likes to think that everything she makes is the best thing in the world. The girl denies any time of her girly laughter or moments of weakness, and always acts tough and brave. Deep down inside she feels cold, not even cold, empty inside because she can't feel anything.


-History before Academy:


One bright sunny day, a thin, delicate girl was born with piercing blue eyes and black hair that looked almost blue in an indoor room. The girl was named after her brightly colored eyes, because the rest of jer family had brown hair and brown eyes. Cyan Planetes was born to a middle class family, with both parents as teachers at the local public elementary. Cyan was an unexpected character at the beginning; The doctor said she wasn't gonna make it, but Cyan continued living.


One day Cyan woke up and it was hard to breathe, and she couldn't feel let alone move anything from torso down. Cyan didn't know what was going on until it was too late. Some one had injected illegal formulas and changes into Cyan's body and changes were still taking place.


Soon Cyan got her legs back to moving like a normal person's, but still couldn't feel a thing, and her parents began to worry about her. But what parents wouldn't worry, if their daughter all of a sudden was sweating crazily but didn't feel hot or she started shivering but didn't feel cold at all? The girl couldn't even feel softness or roughness or wetness.


No one had any explanations, many tried but it was hard for her parents to understand a lot of the big words, including the name of the chemical inside of Cyan.


Her parents no longer knew what to do with her so sent her to the academy upon recomendation and she's been going ever since.


-History at Academy:


Cyan came in the middle of 2nd grade and enjoyed years of spending time, enjoying the academy's many offers.

-Name: Rowan Morinie


-Age: 7, her birthday is the 18 of May


-Gender:Female


-Grade: 2nd grade


-Years spent at Academy: She has been there since first grade, so this is her second year.


-Mutation:Rowan's bones are hollow like a bird's;making her very light, and she doesn't have normally functioning joints either. You know how a owl can turn its head 180 degrees? Well, she can do that with her almost every part of her body(Except for her Nose and ears) in any direction, along with being able to dislocate her joints at will and pop them back in place almost. Because of this her muscles and skin have had to adapt to being stretched and pulled at wear angles, so They're a little more durable than that of an average humans. How Rowan became this way is an actually pretty simple answer. She was born with 3 extra chromosomes, usually when this happens it just changed the functioning of ones brain and morphs the outside of the appearance of those who had this problem, but with Rowan it only changed her exoskeleton, causing her joint sockets to be like a lever's. Her sockets are almost bowl like,and joints which are shaped like balls fit into them perfectly.


-Side Effects: Because Rowan's bones are hollow they are brittle, and pretty fragile. So, she has to be careful when she is playing, running around, or just doing normal activities like getting dressed, because if she falls hard enough, gets shoved, or twists her body the wrong way. She can break a bone and, or dislocate it at a bad angle where she can't pop back in herself.


-Skills: When is comes to skills Rowan doesn't really have that many talents. She can play hide and seek like a boss though, picking out spaces any other person wouldn't be able to fit in unless they could do what she can and fold themselves into different shapes.


-Personality: Rowan is blunt and is usually the first one to tell you that you are doing something wrong, getting on her nerves, or if that shirt you're wearing is ugly. So, if you want someone to be honest to you. Well, I would go to her. She is also pretty eccentric and likes to run around, being the kid she is. Rowan can sometimes be a little too much to handle from time to time, but besides being a little hyper and being as stubborn as a mountain, her heart is crookedly in the right place


-History before Academy: Rowan's family didn't know anything about her condition for the first couple of years of her life. It was only when she was 3 years old when the child had started to show abnormalities; her shoulders blades dislocating one day several times for no reason at all, but because her mother didn't believe is modern medicine they didn't take her to the hospital to get an x-ray. Yet, strangely enough she didn't show much discomfort about this at all and when they were put back into place again she just giggled. But a couple of days later she fell from a stool she was standing on, breaking her femur and wrist.


Her mother was forced to rush her to the hospital, because this wasn't something you could fix at home. The doctor who was there at the time, quickly took x-rays and discovered the truth of why she could dislocated/break her bones, so easily. The shock was plain on the Doc's face, when he discovered that Rowan's bones were hollow like a birds and oddly shaped. The joints and sockets, like a ball on a stick that fit perfectly into a small bowl like shape, making it easy to move it like a lever at almost any angle, and able to turn it any direction at 180 degrees. But they didn't discover this until after they had reset the bones and let them heal.


After that Rowan's parents took great portions to keep her safe from harm. That includes home schooling and only letting her play in environments they knew she would be safe. She wasn't allowed to climb on things, or jump on the bed, but she did, so anyway which would get her into a deal of trouble with Her parents. Of course she still had friend, but she noticed pretty quickly that she wasn't like them, none of the other kids could dislocate their arms from their shoulders, so they could fit into a small space more comfortably, or twist their heads in almost a full circle to see what is behind them. Suddenly, no one wanted to play with her and Rowan started to feel lonely and depressed.


When she turned six years old the doctor who had taken care of her and did her testing ever since she was three years old called them, saying that their was a place where they could better take care of Little Rowan than her own parents could. Where there were other children like her who would actually understand what she is going through. Her parents of course like any sane person would be were hesitant at first. They didn't want to say good-bye to their little girl, but they couldn't pretend that they didn't see the loneliness on her face. They asked the doctors how he had heard of this place and then did a little research themselves. The doctor replied that he had actually been looking for a place where Rowan could get better help and found this place called Alius Academy on accident. They did a little more research of the school and approved of, before the school term started they had sent their only child of to this strange place in hopes she would get help, or at least have a better life.


-History at Academy: When Rowan came to the Academy she was pretty shy and didn't talk much, but soon came out of her shell and became social with the other people here of all ages. But isn't real the biggest fan of the teachers here, It's not because their mean, or anything it is just she doesn't like to pay attention to her work.

YAY, I work thirty minutes All night on that lol. I had a little trouble thinking of a mutation though. You made it really hard!
 
I think its good, because it will get the more serious Rpers into this Rp and the slackers will be to lazy to join even f they are in love with the story line.
 
Name: Ava Gardner


-Age: 15


-Gender: Female


-Grade: Sophmore


-Years spent at Academy: New


-Mutation: First, I’m going to start with Ava’s disabilities. She was born with congenital birth defects resulting in her being deaf and mute, mostly due to mutations on chromosome 7. Her actual mutation is that she can telepathically communicate with people. Because of the extensive mutations on Chromosome 7, her auditory cortex, Limbic, Frontal, and Temporal lobes (Focusing on her Broca’s and Wernicke’s area) are abnormal in that they allow her to broadcast electromagnetic radiation at frequencies corresponding to the alpha and beta waves of the brain (conscious and relaxed thought). This allows her to telepathically speak to people and sometimes send emotions. Theoretically she could influence them in other ways (mind control, possibly dream-walking), but she considers that to be one of the worse things that she could do (Sort of the mental equivalent of rape, if she didn’t have the person’s permission). She can also use her ability like a form of mental radar, able to pick up the signal of a mind, but this takes much more energy than a direct connection to people.


Side Effects: She doesn’t perceive language in the same way that normal people do and really doesn’t have a “mother tongue”. Because of this, she finds it very easy to pick up spoken language. Writing, on the other hand, is significantly harder for her to learn. If she overuses her ability, she can have migraines, and if she uses it to the extreme, it is possible that her brain could overheat. When she first tries to “talk” with a person, it can sound somewhat deafening or odd to the person, so she tries to tell them what she’s about to do with sign language. If something is broadcast in the 0-100Hz range, she’ll probably be able to hear it, but half of the time it causes interference with her ability and a mild headache.


Please note that her ability is used by broadcasting 0-100Hz electromagnetic radiation (Super to Ultra-Low Radio frequencies). As such, she could have some adverse effects on those sensitive to radiation.


-Skills: Language Skills (Ava is extremely good at picking up languages), Lip Reading, She is good with computers, tried to bake once or twice and she was okay at the recipes, but they kept on getting burnt because she didn’t hear the timer.


-Personality: Ava is a somewhat shy, withdrawn, and socially-awkward girl. Once a person gets to know her, she opens up and reveals a witty, and intelligent person. She doesn’t like conflict and tries to avoid when possible. She always has a feeling of isolation, that she’ll never be able to connect with others the same way other people do because of her disability.


-History before Academy: Ava was born to two relatively normal parents. They knew something was wrong when her mouth made the sound of crying, but no sound came out. She had a pretty rough childhood, not being able to hear or speak made it hard to learn how to read, write, and communicate with other people, so she was homeschooled by her mother. Around the age of 11 (the scientists think that it had something to do with puberty), she “talked” to her mother for the first time. She gradually learned how to identify different people’s minds and how to talk with them. Because of her learning leap, she was able to enroll in a school for deaf children. Unfortunately, she had her homeroom teacher committed to a mental institution because she tried to “talk” with her. That’s when the Academy found her and offered enrollment.

Bump
 
-Name: Avaline Xion


-Age: 18


-Gender: Female


-Grade: 12th grade, senior


-Years spent at Academy: Two years.


-Mutation: Born as a test tube baby in a lab, she was experimented on in the height of a nuclear weapons studies. With this, she was exposed to radiation in high quantities over long periods of time; this resulted in her Atavism and fallout adaptation. Atavism is basically reverting into primal form, becoming an evolutionary throwback with traits which have disappeared generations before. This 'ability' has given her enhanced condition, agility, balance, combat, durability, dexterity, endurance, senses, speed, stamina, and strength. But this did not come alone. Along with her traits of the past, she has also taken on a feral mind state which clicks when she is stressed, angered, scared, or in danger. Her fall out adaptation is a resistance of radioactive environments.


-Side Effects: With the amount of radiation seeped into her body, her very self is poisonous. Her blood is radioactive, and also highly flammable; when her blood hits the air, it ignites. Her breath has also taken consequence, becoming chemically lethal if she held it within her lungs for too long; Her breath is highly poisonous. Chock full of radioactive mists from her very lungs, which as all of her organs and body, has become radioactive.


-Skills: Avaline has grown knowledgeable depth in science; it's as if it's her affinity in her life as created for scientific experiments. She's been through honors biology, and AP as well, and continues to follow science roots. She also has grown a bit of a green thumb, holding horticulture as a class she basically teaches herself, since she knows to much. Biology and horticulture are two things she intertwines with one another.


-Personality: She is an oxymoron; it's impossible to explain her coherently to someone who questioned. Though looking innocent, and naturally acting it, Avaline enjoyed toying with others. She's a sweet darkness anyone would allow themselves to be enveloped in; her kindness and individualized care of everyone makes them feel as if they can rely on her, and trust her in every way. The girl knew how to manipulate others in the kindest of ways. She's a girl rather left alone than in groups of people, yet she feeds on attention as one would food and meed. She's got the qualities of a leader, and truly despises the idea of being like anyone else. The woman is a very zen human being in general; she rather finds troubling combat only interesting for more of the planning and strategizing than the actual ideal of killing. As being so, she is a soft spoken poison. Everything about her is methodical, slow, and knowledgeable. Respect is of utmost importance to her, and honor is double so. Avaline is quite a motherly figure as well; taking care of the ones who need it, and teaching the ignorant. She is a kind, yet protected heart, keeping everyone at arms reach; even to her own family and friends. Brave, yet refusing to let anyone to close, and learning to work alone on many of her missions, she truly is a very lonely, wise woman. So when she heard of a friend who needed her assistance did she stop her explorations; this was the product of her kind heart.


Many people who know her on a personal level sometimes worry over the girl. The deep complexity of her soul seems to not allow her times of release; she doesn't care for parties, drugs, or simplistic ideas. In this, she finds herself often somber or melancholy, with too many thoughts and observations to be held. Yet they have no need to worry, because even on Avaline's worse days does she smile and laugh full heartedly. She sees no need of sadness but to be happy and to make others just the same. She never really has to try to smile, and be happy; with such openness, her heart allows so much more happiness in than otherwise.


Many often complain of only a few things of this gifted, old soul of a girl. Either she is still, and deep in thought, or compulsively moving about, and keeping herself busy. She doesn't recall some facts very well, and her explanation is; "It's my nature to observe; I observe every crack on the sidewalk, to common patterns of hairstyles girls do when they don't even realize it, or maybe even how a dog barks when commanded to. With all these little tidbits of information, I forget the important things. My mother's birthday for instance, or my father's favorite baseball team." Avaline also has the issue of being too blunt to others without realizing of what the effect of her words may be. Her blunt words come out as sometimes mean, or even pushy. She doesn't beat around the bush, but really take a chainsaw to it.


She seems very in tuned with her spirit, and the natural way of things. She practices buddhism, and is actually also a vegan, caring deeply for animals. As if the animals sense this, she has never met an animal who didn't love her right away. Even the most farel or closed off animals glue themselves to her, as if a precious gift needing protection.


On the most normal of days, you may find Avaline curled up with a notebook or novel by a window, her hair messily put up into a bun, an oversized sweatshirt giving her the warmth she can never really retain herself, and a once-warm cup of tea, long forgotten.


Avaline is an oxymoron of complexity, and simplicity.


-History before Academy: Her history was not a sweet, clean one. Avaline was never quite given an easy slip in life, though karma clearly had nothing to do with it. Born in a lab, tested on in her childhood, she wasn't raised cold; in fact, she wasn't raised at all. She raised herself in the kindest manner. Even when the facility she was concealed in was closed and raided by the government, at 15 she gratefully thanked her rescuers. After a year of safe, non-tortuous tests to figure if she was safe to allow others around, she was brought to the academy.


-History at Academy: Avaline holds a bit of fame to her. She always seems to be comforting and helping the people who have just came to the academy, the mother of her pupils. Though she's also know to hold very serious, outgoing relationships as well. The girl is of much talk, since everyone is accustomed to her; both liking her and appreciating her character. Not many hate Avaline. She's always been good, or at least as far as the workers of the academy know. There's been rumors that she's slipped off the grounds multiple times; some say she hides a garden outside the walls of the school, and experiments on them. Others say she lets loose, and speculating others say she tries to find the ones who created her.

Sorry.. Alerts messed up.. Again..


@ethericalAlchemist


Accepted! Good job on succeeding to have Telepathy biologically explained!


@Venomarrah


I'm confused. Is her breath poisonous to others? Also, I'm a bit indecisive on accepting your character, because it seems as though she sounds a bit like a James Patterson Character.. Aka, a character with so many abilities that they'd have a hard time not godmodding. In other words, I feel as though you have taken multiple mutations and tried to compress them into one. Regeneration is usually considered godmodding if I'm correct. It is a Mary Sue ability, and I am a bit picky about those. Anyways, I am going to have to do some work, in order to find out whether to accept your character. Though I am willing to do so, it would help a lot if you changed a bit of her mutation.


On the positive side, I really like your character's personality. I also like your good vocabulary and would like you to stay with us. I am very busy with a lot of things, so if you decide to keep your character's mutation it may take a while for me to decide on whether to accept you or not.


Also, to everyone,


I will be adding a few things to the plotline so that I am not fully relying on Truth for everything. Nothing to big. The biggest thing will probably be a list of clubs to join. I am also adding a few more notes in the activities section, and adding pictures to our facilities. I want to add a password for the rules, but if you have posted your character, you don't have to give the password, unless you decide to add another character and in that case you only need to add the password there.


Please wait patiently for me to post the rp. We still need more characters and I will be adding an, "Accepted characters," list so that we know how many boy characters and girl characters we have. I usually like having even amounts to start off with, so we might have to wait some more.


Thank you all for joining and being respectful!
 
I shall just....randomly pop a guy in. xD


Skelly


-Name:
Lukas Emilson


-Age: 17


-Gender: Male


-Grade: Senior, Grade 12


-Years spent at Academy: He's spent twelve years at the academy, once he graduates it'll be thirteen.


-Mutation: Lukas's hair and eyes changes colour to his mood. The physical changes work somewhat like a mood ring, inside the hair strands and eyes are thermotropic liquids that react to the temperature of Lukas's body. As his peripheral body temperature increases, which it does in response to passion and/or happiness, the cornea/hair strands reflect the heat and change the colour to blue. When he is excited or stressed, the blood flow is directed away from the skin and moves towards the inner organs, causing him to feel cold and causing the liquids to cool down and reflect another colour.


Now we're onto why Lukas's hair/cornea reflects the liquids. It was discovered after a few months of research that this man was born with clear eyes and hair, there was little to no melanin in them causing him to become an albino of some sorts. Although Lukas didn't have the signature white hair and red eyes of an albino because his clear cornea/hair strands were so thin that they reflected the thermotropic liquids.


We're still researching why in the first place Lukas has thermotropic liquids in his cornea and hair, but we believe that it may be because a) too much inbreeding b) the nuclear exposure he had while he was in his mother's womb. We think it's the latter of the two.


-Side Effects:

  • Rashes: Because of the unnatural liquids in his hair and eyes, Lukas tends to have terrible rashes if they somehow leak into his skin. (this is mainly through the hair. P.S. this also counts eyelashes)
  • Very Sensitive Eyes: Because of the lack of melanin in his eyes, Lukas's eyes don't have as much protection and are very sensitive.
  • Sunburns: Technically, Lukas is an albino so he is prone to bad sunburns. P.S. He keeps a bottle of sunblock in his bag at all times.
  • Subtle to Intense Migraines: This is mainly because of the thermotropic liquids in his hair, because it is attached to his skull, along with the rashes, when the liquids leak through his skin and into his skull, it may cause slight to serious migraines depending on how much of the chemicals have been leaked.
  • Cardiac Arrests: Once again this is because of the leaks of the thermotropic liquids, if the chemicals get into the blood stream, it may clog the veins and cause a cardiac arrest.
  • Difficulty Breathing: This is a continuation of the side effect above. Because the heart isn't pumping blood, the lungs can't provide oxygen for the brain, thus bringing up back up to Subtle to Intense Migraines.


-Skills: To be honest, Lukas doesn't have those crazy amazing skills like running super fast or being able to pick up languages easily. But, there is one thing Lukas is passionate about and has worked on over the years.

  • Cooking: This man is an amazing cook and knows almost every recipe by heart, and if he doesn't know it, he could easily perfect it in a few tries, if not one.
  • Lying: To lie, Lukas needed to control his emotions so that his hair doesn't change colour and give away the lie. He's so good at lying, sometimes he can deceive himself!


-Personality: This fabulous man is a work of art, he's very sassy and always throwing witty come-backs. Lukas has a love for fashion and beauty, he enjoys giving makeovers and enhancing everyone's beauty. This fantastic man can look at everyone's good points and focus on them completely, but that's no fun.


Lukas loves to gossip and tends to insult people, although it's just a joke, he doesn't really mean most of them. This man loves his clothing and his appearance! He'll get very mad at you if you hurt him, and you don't want to get this guy mad. Usually, Lukas is very mellow and doesn't get irritated easily - Although, he does get jealous - but if you do manage to cross the line, you'll regret it immediately. When angered, Lukas tends not to get violent and releases a "killing intent" to scare people off, and most of the time it works.


Although this man may seem overconfident and a little bit of a narcissist, but Lukas is actually very sensitive about his mutations and doesn't have the highest of self esteems, even if he does act like it. Lukas tends to cover up his weaknesses and carries his problems by himself. He's quite stubborn when people offer to help him, but Lukas almost never shows that side of him.


-History before Academy: Lukas was born into a rich family that tended to inbreed a lot to preserve their heritage. He was born the third of four children, and considering it was usually the first and second that took of the family business, Lukas was free to do whatever he wanted as long as he upheld the family image. As a child, Lukas was born with brownish-grey fuzz on his head, which looked pretty normal but was really because as a newborn he felt anxiety and was panicking for air. The first few days were pretty normal as Lukas remained in the hospital to watch for any health issues. It was then when they discovered that Lukas's eyes changed colours, although, it was normal to change eye colours, what really discombobulated the doctors were the unnatural colours they changed to. The doctors ran tests on baby Lukas and found out that he was an albino with such low melanin that his hair and eyes were see through. A few months later, they discovered the thermotropic liquids in his cornea and hair strands when the newborn had gone into cardiac arrest because of it. Being from a rich family, Lukas's parents were able to afford any health care needed to keep the child alive, and once Lukas was in a stable condition, he was sent home to live a somewhat normal life with his family.


-History at Academy:


Sanclair and Lukas are bffs xD (or are they...? DUN DUN DUN)

Atavism[/URL] is a very well used ability, and I'm sorry for not putting more detail into my bio as a whole. I'd be more than willing to remove her ability of regeneration. As explained, her breath is completely normal unless held in her toxic lungs; only when she breathes out this gust would it be poisonous.


I was planning on editing it somewhat, so it was clear she wasn't all powerful; by no means did I want her perfect.


Also, I agree with your opinion on regeneration. But godmodding may not mean what I think you believe it does. Godmodding means controlling another's character.
