Biography
Tyler was born in Deerfield Illinois to an upper middle class family. Her mother, Penelope Malbrooke was a socialite who thrived off of gossip and early afternoon drinking. Tyler's father on the other hand was Calvin Malbrooke, the owner of a law firm, Malbrooke, Stern and Co. Though the personalities of her parents differed vastly, Tyler never doubted that they were in love; through all of the lies and blurred lines of their professional lives, the pair of them always had one another's back. By default this made Tyler a fairly popular girl at school, something that her mother came to expect of her daughter. They both had a very rocky relationship, often disagreeing on most topics; where Penelope valued appearance and social status, Tyler favoured intellect over the superficial. This is what drove Tyler to adoring her father and detesting her mother. Calvin was very business orientated and although he enjoyed a drink in the afternoon, he was careful not to let the habit affect his personal life. Tyler looked up to him and aspired to do something worthy but becoming a lawyer wasn't practical with Tyler's grades. Her father suggested that she help people in other ways, by becoming a nurse or a therapist and Tyler seemed taken with the latter.
After high school and being accepted into the college that her father attended, Tyler seemed set for the next four years. However, at the age of eighteen, her ability manifested. It started off as an infrequent annoyance; she would misplace an object or two but before long it escalated. Tyler would involuntarily 'cloak' things that were too large or valuable to be ignored, such as her car or the front door of the house. Only weeks before she was due to leave for college, Tyler confided in her parents and shockingly, they were ashamed. Whilst neither of them had abilities, they knew of them because Penelope's sister and Calvin's brother had developed an ability at a young age. Tyler soon realised that her parents had envied her aunt and uncle, to the point where they seemed to distance themselves from their daughter. Family dinners became silent affairs and after making the executive decision to forego college for a year, her parents seized the opportunity to wash their hands of her. So without any other place to go, Tyler traveled to New York City to stay with her uncle Calder.
Calder Malbrooke was always considered a nuisance and very immature, predominantly because of the childish ways in which he would use his ability. He was capable of rendering not only himself but other people and objects invisible. As a teenager he would spy on neighbours, cheat on tests and steal small objects but with the disapproval of his parents came a desire to anger them further. Calder would steal from casinos and car dealerships, living a lavish lifestyle that other members of the family had earned through hard work. In a way, learning of this made Tyler feel much better about her own ability, which Calder soon took advantage of. He was involved with an Italian mobster who had an operation regarding cars and importing them illegally into the United States.
Without much prompting, Tyler was happy to accept the lessons that her uncle was willing to teach her and the only thing he asked in return was a favour. He would travel to Italy with Tyler, pick up several cars and after loading them into containers and shipping them across the ocean, she would hide them from the inspecting officers. Having only the capability to render a small number of objects invisible at a time, he needed Tyler to help him because she was capable of concealing countless objects and people at any given time. From then on, Tyler went into business with her uncle and received a generous payment for her efforts.

Personality
Despite enjoying the wealthy and consuming lifestyle that comes with breaking the law, a part of Tyler has always yearned for something more. Her current situation only occurred because of the rejection she experienced at the hands of her parents and ultimately, she would like to go back to the easy and normal life she had. However, this doesn't mean that Tyler lets that desire show. She remains hardheaded and refuses to back down since many of her clients are criminals. Tyler analyses a situation before acting and weighs her options, only pursuing opportunities that benefit her in some way. She can be quite sarcastic a times and rather flirtatious, but both are just variables of her heart-of-stone facade.

Q: How did your character come to learn of their ability?
A: Tyler's ability manifested normally during adolescence. Like most newly manifested teenagers, she struggled with control. She often cloaked things that she didn't mean too and of course hadn't learned to make things she'd hidden reappear.
Q: Will your character use their ability for good or evil?
A: Though Tyler has previously used her ability to break the law, she sees this as just a means of survival. She would never harm another with her ability, even if it would mean making them disappear forever opposed to physically harming them. Tyler wants an ordinary life and if joining the fight to keep all evolved humans safe is what it takes, she's on board.

Biography
Grant was born into a very snobby, wealthy family in Houston. His parents were crass, mean people who deemed themselves better than anybody else, especially ‘city folk.’ They admired the ‘olden days’ where their family had a considerable amount of power, though that all changed when the world became obsessed with modernisation. Though absent any extraordinary abilities themselves, they had no idea that the constant blackouts across town were due to their son. Manifesting at a very young age, Grant had a severe lack of control regarding his ability; he would accidentally shock his friends when they were play fighting and murder his pets when holding them for too long. However, Grant’s desire to not be touched did not go unnoticed and his parents had deemed him an anti-social disappointment.
Allowing him to stay in their home was more for their benefit than his, especially since the neighbours would talk about Grant’s disappearance. So Grant was forced to grow up in a very cold and distant home, where he felt utterly alone. That was until he met Annabel, the daughter of butcher. She was beautiful, sun-kissed and she too had an ability; where Grant could manipulate electricity, Annabel could restore it – she had a way with technology that couldn’t be explained. The traffic lights would change for her as they drove through town, her appliances worked entirely on their own and the security cameras of the local bowling alley would inexplicable turn off when she and Grant snuck in.
Throughout their teenage years, the pair of them took comfort in the secret that they shared and when they both turned twenty-one, they left Houston. Unsure of where they were travelling too, Grant and Annabel found themselves in Los Angeles, a place that was almost as beautiful as she was.
For three happy years Grant and Annabel attempted to make a life for themselves – something that they had wanted. Though that was until a group of men arrived at their home with the intention of taking Annabel away. They had forced their way into the home, subdued Grant and dragged Annabel out into their van – he never saw her again.

Personality
Grant has always suffered from a mixed concoction of emotions. Though he isn’t diagnosed with any disorders, Grant suffers from good days and bad days. After Annabel’s kidnapping, he searched for her for a year, always failing to – however, when he gave up on her, he also gave up on himself. Now all he has to live for is his work, something that does not bring him any joy. He feels as though he will never find love again but probably wouldn’t let himself if he did; in his eyes, nobody could take Annabel’s place.
Personality Strengths | determined, trustworthy, realiable

Q: How did your character come to learn of their ability?
A: Grant's abilities manifested at a very young age and he discovered what he could do during a fight with one of his friends. For a long time, Grant was unable to control the currents and was forced to refrain from touching anybody because of it.
Q: Will your character use their ability for good or evil?
A: For the most part, Grant wants to stay out of the conflict but doens't truly believe that he can. Whilst he doesn't want to acknowledge his ability, he doesn't want others with abilities to hurt people; so ultimately, he'll always choose good.
