Makoto まこと(Gale) Female 21 Storm raised her but her birth parents are unknown. Lightning and electrical currents. She can manipulate intensity of the electrical energy as well as form. She also has the ability of cytokinesis (self healing). Makoto was only 4 when she was found by Storm. The house had been set ablaze by an unknown source. The family had moved in not to long before the fire so their little girl could attend a good school. She was the first generation of their family to be born in America. Living in a small home, cramped too close together to meet any sort of true security standards, the fire was a huge risk. The flames licked at the neighboring buildings while the fire fighters tried to contain the damage. Storm happened to be in the surrounding area where she could see the billowing black smoke. She quickly made her way over to help. Upon arrival she overheard the fire fighters radioing that the parents were likely dead but the little girl was yet to be found. Storm rushed into the building while creating rain to help control the fire. In the closet of what looked like the little girls bedroom, storm found Makoto. The little girl was crying and shivering in fear. Storm was thankful that the fire had yet to breach the girl’s room but it was not far, flames were already moving through the doorway. Storm quickly escaped with the girl and helped to put out the fire. Storm did something outside of the normal routine that day, without a word she left with the child. The girl, who still had her school backpack on, was able to change the feel of the air as she cried. Recognizing that this girl would likely be a mutant, carried her off to a place where she would be safe and could learn at an early age what to do with these powers. As it turned out, Storm was right. Makoto, the name that was on the inside of the little girls backpack, could control electricity. [b]Appearance:[b]

Not necessarily too old- I have Devika at about the same age, but that's because she's a transfer. I do have to say that being found by Storm and known as a mutant that early, Makoto likely would have been in the Academy long before this time.So... what her from getting there?

KatherinWinter said
I would put her at about 16 or so. Like pointed out she was eased by a mutant and was know to have powers from a young age. She would have been enrolled in the academy as soon as she was old enough or when it was established whichever happened first.

Aren't ryan and Phoebe 21?

Hidden Lilly said
From what I read in the CS's, Pheoebe and Devika are 21, Estella is 20 and everyone else is 18 or under.

KatherinWinter said
I had no idea they were that old....

t2wave said
I didn't know Estella was 20 either, and that's my character. Silly human the CS says 18.

KatherinWinter said
Well... Now I feel..... I don't know. It doesn't make sense to me to have them still struggling with their powers after their 18. It seems to mee someone oukd have them by then.... No wonder my characters have no purpose..,,
