@TheOddball's characters:
Though not especially muscular Marcus possesses an athletic frame with defined, toned muscles. His skin is coarse to touch and littered with dozens of small, accidental scars from his boyish childhood. He lacks any sort of tattoo though he has no intention of maintaining it that way.
Personality: Marcus is a walking contradiction in that he is simple in his complexity. He is blunt though no one is sure why, he is quiet though seemingly for no reason. It is easy to describe Marcus as reserved, serious and straight forward but it is nigh impossible to know him. Though he is somewhat of a closed book his actions hold a certain nobility to them and he will often act with both honour and nobility, considering others when making his choices. This selflessness is what he himself considers both his greatest strength and weakness.
Power(s): Marcus has the ability to coat his entire body in any substance he has recently touched. The coating grants Marcus abilities based on each substance. For example metals grant him increased strength and durability where as water and certain plastics leave him immune to fire ect. He wears a copper bracelet almost permanently to aid in his ability.
History: Marcus was born the son of a English businessman and his Russian supermodel wife into a well off family within the upper circles of London. He was raised dutifully, expected to pursue a career akin to his father's in the world of business. However Marcus struggled with his classes and never seemed to appease his fathers expectations, constantly being berated for his failures. Over the years this torment from his father grew into a resentment for the man, though with his mother largely doting over his younger sister, Anastasia, Marcus felt largely ignored by his family.
His sister was only a year his junior, so as the pair grew they found fast friends in one another, though as they shared differing views of their parents their relationship with their parents was often a point of argument. This conflict between the two only intensified when a Meteorite hit their London apartment. The two siblings were lucky to survive the impact of the relatively small rock, their parents didn't share their luck. Waking up in hospital Marcus was informed his parents had died and his father's estate fell to him as the heir.
In the weeks that followed Marcus sought to put his father's affairs in order, coping with the death remarkably well as honestly they had never truly been his parents. His sister on the other hand struggled terribly, adopting various bad and occasionally illegal bad habits. The emergence of their powers, seemingly caused by the cosmic crash, only made matters worse and Marcus struggled to comfort his grieving sister. He adopted a father-like role and tried everything he could to help her, though deciding to stay away from external help as he feared what others would think of their abilities.
Their lives continued in this struggle for little under a year before Marcus Anastasia was contacted by the Institution. Marcus was reluctant to go, unsure if trusting them was wise. However Anastasia was adamant about her decision to at least try the school so Marcus tagged along, intent on protecting his sister.

Standing at little over five foot two inches and weighing in at little under 55 Kg, Ana is firmly within the realms of the petite category, a fact made even more blindingly obvious when she stands next to her brother. Her skin is paler, adopting more from her Russian heritage, and smooth to touch. Her hair is naturally brown though often goes through many colour changes within a year, some only lasting weeks. She has a long thin scar running down her ribs from where her chest was pierced by glass during the meteor strike.
Personality: Ana is cautious though curious person, well aware of the dangers of a situation though tends to ignore them in favour of the potential pay off. She is an informed creature of impulse, making rash and often poor decisions simply for the hell of it. She always makes sure she knows the risks, then dismisses them, refusing to let mere matters of mortality interfere with her having fun. Her impulsive behaviour has lead to many bad habits and she often acts selfishly, rarely considering the effect her actions might have on another.
Power(s): Ana has the ability to manipulate glass in both a liquid and solid form.
History: Anastasia was born just over a year after her brother, the much loved daughter of a English businessman and his Russian supermodel wife into a well off family within the upper circles of London. She was raised with little expectations as her parents knew she would most likely never have to work a day in her life. Though what few expectations were had Anastasia she exceeded with ease painting her in a much better light than her brother in her parent's eyes. As she grew she learnt to idolise them, admiring her fathers intelligence and her mothers beauty. She saw no flaw in them and so was devastated the most when they were taken from her by the meteor strike.
In the months that followed she struggled to cope with both the injuries she sustained and the grief of losing those most dear to her. She adopted a variety of bad habits and had a few low level run ins with the police which her brother was often left to sort out with the aid of their parents money. She grew to rely on her brother and cared deeply for him despite almost always finding ways to aggravate and argue with him. After all he was all she had left.
After a year the guilt of her actions got to her and she sought a new start, a fresh beginning somewhere where she could use her abilities responsibly. As if summoned the Institute contacted the pair and after convincing her brother, the two siblings packed their bags.

@TheOddball's characters:
Name: Cassandra Lyons (Cassie, Cass)
Age: 17 years old
Gender: Female
Sexual orientation: Female
Place of birth: London, England
Appearance: Fair wavy hair that comes down below her chest, grey/blue eyes. Around 5 foot 5, 126 pounds with subtle curves. Round features, button nose.
Personality:
+ Creative, passionate, generous, warm-hearted, cheerful, humorous, brave
- Stubborn, unrealistic, unmotivated, hates to feel controlled, too trusting, bottles up feelings
Power(s): Able to shift into a winged lioness. She is able to speak in that form. When not in that form, she experiences sharpened senses and surprising strength for her side. She has speed but not much stamina in human form. She also has a great deal of stealth. Her other form has all of these qualities in a much more efficient way. The saying ‘the cat with 9 lives’ isn't strictly true, but she is able to sustain many injuries without dying. If she stays out of one form for long enough, the other will slowly heal. She is quite sensitive to certain materials and food items that she wasn't before, and her greatest enemy is not bullets. Tranquillisers and stun guns would do more damage to her as their effects last longer. Her last name is a coincidence of course.
History: Cassie was born in a well-to-do family and has never wanted anything in her entire life, apart from freedom. Her father was ridiculously controlled and very traditional in his ways and wanted his daughter to be perfect, just like his perfect older son. On her eighth birthday however, Cassie experienced a change within herself. She had been born exactly under the constellation of Leo, with all the correct planets aligned - there was a magic inside of her that had been brewing and finally, on the eight year representing the eighth month, she was able to transform into a lioness. She tried to keep it secret for as long as possible, but the more she bottled up her feelings and the more cagey her father became, the more things became noticeable and the onset of the growth of wings began. They signalled her desire for freedom. One day close to her 17th birthday, her father discovered what she was, disgusted and shocked he quickly shipped her off the Institution thinking his daughter would be kept away forever. In fact, it was the kindest thing he had ever done.

History: Anna was born to a Korean father and American mother and has lived in both countries for a few years at a time. She has four siblings, and she is the middle child. She was never a loud child, preferring to keep to herself and speak to her imaginary friends. Due to the moves in her childhood, it made her a liable bullying target at school. Her parents didn't make enough time for all their children, so Anna confided in her friends, the fairies. When she was 10, she was followed home by some bullies. The faries, who even she thought was imaginairy, came to her rescue. The catch was that the other children couldn't see them, they didn't believe in them of course. Therefore they thought Anna was some kind of witch, and rumours quickly spread. Luckily, the Institution got wind of it and approached the Song family and said there would be a place waiting for Anna at the school when she came of age. Anna always remembered that the people from the Institution could see her fairies. She has been at the school for a year now.

Personality: Max prefers computers to other people, finding comfort in their logical behavior and lack of judgement. This preference is closely seconded by hand held computing devices, followed by books about computers. Without meaning to, Max rubs pretty much everyone the "wrong way".
Power(s): Max has an affinity for all electronic devices. Provided there is some sort of interface, he can convince them to do what he wants. He considers it hacking, but it goes beyond mortal limits.
Weakness: Max must shut out the outside world to work in this way, meaning he is completely defenceless while hacking. There's also the thing with his "twin"...
History: Left on an orphanage's front step with his name written on his hand, Max has a deep distrust of people. Preferring to glean what he needed from the internet, Max was self taught to a scary degree. This should have been impossible given the orphanage's limited amenities, but Max coaxed life out of a 486 older than he is. His affinity with electronics allowed him to avoid the bullying that someone of his "diminished stature" would typically endure, only in a roundabout way. As so many hackers have erred, Max was discovered with approximately the GDP of a small country in his bank account at twelve. Rather than limit his access to electronics it was thought that his skills could be used to help rather than hinder, and he was slated to join the academy. Max's 14th birthday was yesterday, and he found himself delivered to the academy this morning.

Name: Maxine Dunn
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Sexual orientation: heterosexual
Place of birth: San Francisco, California
Appearance: Maxine has roughly the same features as her "twin", pixie-cut black hair, sparkling green eyes and moon-pale skin, but for her it all just works. Maxine takes pride in her wardrobe, preferring black, white, and red.
Personality: Outgoing and personable, Maxine loves people but looks out for number one. She enjoys social gatherings and people watching. She always has a twinkle in her eyes, like she has a secret you're just dying to know.
Power(s): Maxine has heightened athleticism. Back-flips, tumbles, cartwheels and more, Maxine can move through a room like a whirlwind on drugs.
Weakness: That thing with her "twin"...
History: Owing to her unique situation Maxine has always enjoyed the nightlife. Despite her diminutive size, Maxine was always exceptionally athletic and highly energetic. She found an outlet for her energy in three main passions: karate, parkour, and shopping. Shopping requires money however, so this led to her fourth main pastime: burglary. Some large portion of the wealth in Maximilian's account was actually hers, but she lost it in the same court actions as Max.

That thing with his/her "twin":
Maximilian and Maxine are actually the same person. He/She is Maximilian from sunrise to sunset and Maxine from sunset to sunrise. The actual transformation happens in a blink and, even using slow motion, cannot be recorded (Maxine has tried). For some reason (possibly denial) Maximilian remains completely unaware of the transformation while Maxine retains the memories of both forms. Neither form actually sleep, although Maxine enjoys leaving Maximilian in awkward situations come daylight. Maximilian believes that he is a forgetful narcoleptic who sleep walks, but due to his social awkwardness he cannot confide this in anyone.
@Robertaka123's character:
Name: Eleanor Hourani
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Sexual orientation: Pansexual
Place of birth: Anchorage, Alaska
Appearance: 5'7", 145lbs, she has an athletic build and long blonde hair that compliments her pale pale but healthy looking skin. Her eyes are a piercing blue, matching her usual blue skirt and shirt.
Personality: Eleanor is often seen as cold and bitter by those who do not know her, however she is an excellent leader and tactician. Those that follow her orders would think of her as an ingenious commander even though she is far from exceptional, this is due to her superiority complex that causes her to believe she is above everyone else and act confident even when her odds are low. The sheer confidence she possesses is enough to sway most people. She will never take order from someone she deems lesser than her, especially other students.
Power(s): Eleanor has the ability to use restoration magic, healing her allies. This can be used to decrease recovery time from training as well, allowing people to push their body to the limits and train at an accelerated rate. When using this power on other people it damages herself, and if used too much causes internal bleeding.
History: Born into a farm family she despised the lack of anything exciting happening, left her family when she was 16 to make a name for herself. Arriving at the academy, knowing she would find more people like her there, she began scoping the area and kept to herself her first two years while she prepared herself. Having grown up on a farm she had been physically fit, and trained herself even harder while at the academy to allow herself to use her power for longer and lessen the damage of the side effects.

@AncientHoliday's character:
Name: Richard Archer (Rick, Archer, 'Dick' by his enemies)
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Sexual orientation: Pansexual (Secretly)
Place of birth: South-East England
Appearance: A muscular but not ripped young man with Caucasian skin and very dark black hair. His eyes are a rich green and his dark hair made the hair on his face stand out more, giving the appearance of stubble on his face. He stands at 5'8 and is an average weight for someone of his stature. He wears a red chequered button-up with a white under-shirt worn typically. He wears jeans in cold weather and cream shorts in warmer weather. He is typically cheery as part of his persona.
Personality: Any of Richard's friends would see him as a great lad. He's popular with girls and has had numerous relationships, none of them long terms and often ending on a whim. He's bold and brash, turning away any chance for deeper conversation in favour of vapid nonsense. However, Richard really, really hates Richard. On his own, he is sensitive and reserved, hating the public persona that he built to stay popular. Every relationship he's had has started and ended based purely on physicality and never about any true intimate knowledge. This is one of the reasons he's been an amateur hero with a mask; he can feel like the real Richard. He is defensive about maintaining this public perception of himself as he fears the real him would be rejected and shunned. He's suffered some minor identity crises though a big one may be looming. They all boil down to the question of who is the real Richard.
Power(s): Geokinesis. Control over rocks, minerals and the such in many forms. Whilst this power is simple, he can use it in a variety of different ways. Has learned to fight smart instead of overpowering his enemies.
History: Richard's powers manifested when he was young after falling from the roof of his house. As he landed, he was encased and supported by a shell of dirt. It took hours for him to be released from the shell, where Richard had been unconscious. Fearing being seen as persecuted by the power-hating community, Richard's parents encouraged him to keep his powers secret. Richard only felt open about himself to his parents which means that this move to the school panicked him greatly. The reason for this move was because he was forced to reveal his powers in order to save a young girl's life in a fairground accident.

@AmarisSeesTheStars' character:
Name: Jace Williams
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: A-Sexual
Place of Birth: Sitka Alaska
Appearance: Jace is a slim young man with a narrow face and a slim figure. His uncontrollable dark brown hair is usually covered by one of the beanies his older sister knits for him and he wears large, black glasses. He stands at around 5'9'' with long limbs and a flat torso. Even though he's lived in Alaska for most of his life, he still has maintained very little weight on him. His friends often compare him to a cat as he is very flexible and has a tendency to sit in odd places that one would think a person his size would not be able to fit in.
Personality: Jace is a very adventurous young man who can be found reading in normally unconventional areas or sitting on top of the tallest thing in the area. He has a very expressive, and may even say dramatic, personality and has a tendency to say things that others take offensive. When he does offend someone accidentally he doesn't usually apologize, unless it was extremely disrespectful, and will shrug it off while he walks away. Jace doesn't get offend very easily, maybe that's one reason he doesn't apologize for offending people, but if you dare hurt one of his friends you better run. Jace is very protective of his friends and is often a councilor for them. If someone does hurt one of his friends, the brunette will challenge the person to a "duel" and ask the person to apologize. If he or she does not, he'll set a meeting place and time for their fight. If one would deny Jace's 'duel' he'll beat you down then and there. Because of this, Jace is often getting into trouble and getting suspended from school.
Power: Jace has the ability to block out one sense of his opponent. This means if he wants, he can cause some to go deaf, blind, or lose their sense of taste, smell, or touch. He can also change the variation such as causing someone's eyesight get worse, make them lose their balance, not being able to hear a specific person, and such. However, not only can he only keep this affect for a short period of time, depending on how powerful it is, but for every second he uses his power on someone else, the same thing will happen to himself twenty-four hours later.
History: Jace is the second child to a family of four children living with a single mom. His mother forced her husband to leave after verbally abusing the household and for not getting a job for a number of years. Jace's mother feared that her husband would eventually turn to physically abusing her and her children and did not want to take the chance, so Jace has lived without a father since he was twelve. He holds hostile feelings for his father for the trash he put their family through and does not forgive him for making his mother go through so much pain.
Jace's powers developed when he was around ten when his father started to go downhill. He was arguing with his older sister after asking her why Dad wasn't working anymore when he yelled something along the lines of "If your not going to listen then you should just stop hearing anything I say." He proceeded to argue with his sister when she started hit her ears and then scream in horror. Even though Jace was arguing with her, he couldn't hear anything he was saying. Jace subconsciously relieved his powers but the next day he wasn't able to hear his sister for a short period of time while they were talking. Jace's older sister soon found out what happened and of Jace's powers. She proceeded to research online when she stumbled onto the Institution's information. Now Jace is seventeen and wants to meet other people with powers and possibly learn how to control his better.
