If you wish to make a Villain please PM me and we’ll talk about it. I would suggest you have at least one character be a part of Sector X in this case.

Name: Cassiopeia “Cassie” Anderson

Age: 29



Power/ Talent: Cassie is what has been classified as a ‘sniper’ class psychic. She has a sense of hyper-focus and attention so she can ‘snipe’ with a normal handgun. This makes her very proficient as a sniper, as well as a marksman.

Biography: Cassie was raised in a rough suburb of Chicago, and clawed her way out of it. She was generally a quiet girl that kept to herself. Her father had served during Desert Storm, her grandfather in World War II, so Cassie was always determined to join the Army. She started taking karate and taekwondo at a young age, since her parents wanted her to be able to protect herself in her rough neighborhood. Her father suffered from PTSD silently, and the day Cassie graduated High School and joined the Army he finally snapped and went head first into the bottle. Cassie had not spoken to her father in a few years, but that has recently changed since he went to rehab and cleaned himself up.

At eighteen, just before she graduated from High School, Cassie signed up into the Marine Corp, which was an interesting decision. She worked hard through Boot Camp, and worked her way to becoming a sniper. After Boot Camp was over she was sent on her first tour of Iraq. It was during her second tour, towards the end that the change happened, and Cassie awoke to her powers. At that time she met her current boyfriend, Kyle Richards, while they were both in the med tent freaking out about hearing people’s thoughts. She went there after hearing one of her fellow Marines make threats on his ex-wife, and finding out after reporting him that he had never opened his mouth while ‘saying’ those things.

She discovered the full range of her powers on a sniper mission, when she used her combat pistol to take out her target instead of her sniper rifle. Cassie was a bit freaked out by this, but chose to take control of her powers, and refine them in the field.

After she was discharged with full honors, she was recruited by Kyle, who had been booted out of the army previously when they found out about his powers. (This was before the Army highly encouraged Psychics to join, when the powers were still new.) He had been recruited to Sector X and when asked if he knew anyone he trusted to join, he immediately named Cassie, and asked to do it in person. She accepted and has been working with Sector X for six years now.

Hobbies: Archery, hunting, baking, leather working.

Personality: Cassie comes off as harsh and abrasive due to her years in the army, but once someone gets to know her, they know she’s a very protective person that cares about her friends deeply. She does also have a weird sense of humor, loving groan worthy puns.

Role in Sector X: Field Agent, Recruiter, Security

Additional Info: Cassie hates her full name. No one is allowed to use it. Not even her mother. She is aware of the mythology behind it and hates it.

Name: Autumn Page, formerly Maple Winter.

Age: 26



Power/ Talent: Pheromone control, classified as a ‘Physical’ class. Autumn can put out a wave of pheromones, making it so that people will either calm down, or be more receptive to ideas. This has backfired on her, especially when it comes to romance. She currently wears a power dampener that looks like an ear cuff on her right ear. She takes it off when she needs to.

Biography: Autumn was born originally Maple to her con-man father. She never knew her mother, since she handed Maple off to her father and left him. It seemed to be a cruel joke to Maple growing up that her father saddled her with the name Maple. It never seemed to fit her. What was even crueler was that Maple would never grow up in one town.

Autumn's father was a con-man extraordinaire, who was always oddly one step ahead of the law. He posed as a religious man, car salesman, insurance salesman, and a number of other things over the years. Autumn grew to loath and hate what her father did for a living. She still loves him in a way, but has not kept up contact with him.

Autumn worked hard at school and earned a scholarship to college, and when she turned eighteen she left her home, changed her name and went to make something of herself. She worked her way through college, earning a degree in business in two years. She immediately got a job in a high profit firm and worked there for a few months.

It took Autumn a few months to realize what her power was, since she never really thought about things while she was doing it. Her main power presented itself one day when one of the co-workers she had a crush on asked her out. Then a few other co-workers asked her out! She was excited till she found out that the co-worker she had a crush on had rather rudely and abruptly broken up with his girlfriend, a fellow co-worker, that same day. She realized that she was causing the influx of hormones at work and quit that day. She found Sector X after a bit of research and asked to join, looking for a way to control her powers. They helped her by giving her an experimental power dampener, which made her the first test subject for it. It is thanks to Autumn that the tech even exists.

Hobbies: Cooking, baking, reading, knitting

Personality: Autumn is a very friendly person, but also very shy. Due to her powers and her nature she tends to shy away from people because she is afraid they are only friendly with her due to her powers. Also because of this she hasn’t had a date in six years.

Role in Sector X: Negotiator, Public Relations, Recruiter, and Field Agent on occasion (If the mission has a possible rogue element in it, Autumn is sent in to help calm things down.)

Additional Info: Autumn is always afraid of ending up like her father, using people for her own selfish gain, which is why she dislikes her power. She is also a hopeless romantic, and hopes to find ‘the one’ one day.

Name: Niah Bautista

Age: 24 (DOB: 12/26/1987)
Appearance:

Power/ Talent: Enhanced Senses (Hyper Senses). Niah’s senses in general are better than a normal human’s, but if she wants to she can hyper focus a sense. When she does that though she loses complete access to another sense. When hyper focused she could see with literal microscopic ability, or hear a pin drop from a mile away. In highly emotional situations she cannot control the hyper focus.
When she hyper focuses on Smell she loses Sight.
Sight - Sound
Sound - Taste
Touch - Smell
Taste - Touch

Biography:
Niah was born in Manila. Her family lived there until 2001, when her father became an Ambassador and moved semi-permanently to America. At the time Niah was in high school, her sister Dalisay was in middle school. They attended a prestigious private school alongside many other statesmen’s children. Niah was a science nerd, and for a good portion of her time at the school attempted to just disappear. When she graduated High School she went to an Ivy league school with the intention of becoming a scientist.

In 2006 her sister was visiting the night of the change. The two went to a concert (best band ever! "Abandoned Mattresses"). Niah left with a new *cough* friend *cough* and Daliasy went home. It was an awkward morning before Niah left to go home. Back at her house she could find Daliasy. Her family was already stressed over the loss of their mother in 2004, the disappearance of Dalisay hit her hard. The manifestation of Niah’s power did not help; it was uncontrollable.

Niah dropped out of the Ivy league and joined a smaller college to reduce her stress level. The college was the same one her friends that she had met at the concert went to, all with powers, but none like her’s. After she graduated in 2009 Niah was looking at potential jobs and Graduate schools when she was recruited for Sector X.


Even though Niah knew she’d have to cut contact with her father she took the job. Niah knew it’d give her an opportunity not only to work on honing her power, but to also find her sister.

Hobbies: Cooking (she’s a hyper taster, even when she isn’t trying to focus on it), dance (Tinkling), anything to do with science (be it reading or doing).

Personality: Niah is shy, and quiet. She is the type of person who focuses completely on what she is doing forgetting the outside world exists (Niah suspects that is why her power is what it is).

Role in Sector X: Investigator, field agent, walking CSI kit.

Additional Info: Niah does not like to be touched, she does not offer her hand for shakes, but bows at introductions instead. She’s also very conscious of what she buys to wear because seams and tags irritate her. Niah doesn't handle loud noises well either, at least without being warned. If she's warned she shuts off her sense of sound.




Name: Neil Maxwell

Age: 28 (DOB: 11/11/1983)

Appearance:


Power/ Talent: Codefication

Biography: Neil was born and raised in California. He grew up in the Central Valley in Fresno, where he ended up going to college for his undergraduate degree. He went to San Jose State for his Graduate degree in Computer Engineering. Even while he was growing up he was always good with codes and cyphers. His senior year of high school his CS teacher tested him with some supposedly impossible cyphers. Neil spent months on it, and wasn’t able to solve it until shortly before the change happened. The message his teacher had left was gibberish. The solution to the code gave him nothing. He called the school but the teacher was no longer there. Neil spent the next few months using the cypher anyway. In of itself he believed it to be a perfect cypher. When the change hit he understood that the cypher wasn’t perfect and there would never be a perfect one, but he could make them more difficult to crack now.

Neil was recruited by Sector X as he worked for a prominent company already doing their deep level encryption.

Hobbies: Computers in general, D&D (and other tabletop games)

Personality: Neil is, simply put, a nerd. He loves computers and games. He especially loves brain challenges and is always up for a game, be it trivia or something more complicated. He’s surprisingly outgoing, and was in several clubs during his school days.

Role in Sector X: Message coder/decoder

Name: Talia Jones. But you can call her T.J.

Age: 19



Power / Talent: Physical Class. Animal morphing: She can shift into nearly any animal. Downside: She can only speak in the tongue of the creature she has morphed into. When she shifts back into human form, she tends to retain the personality traits of the animal, and the longer she remains in the same animal form, the more difficult it becomes for her to shift directly back into a human, and the amount of time she retains the personality of the animal(s) increases.
Animal imitation: Even when not shifted, she is capable of taking on the abilities of animals. She could have the speed of a cheetah, reflexes of a cat, agility of a monkey, generation abilities of a lizard… Downside: The weaknesses of the animal she imitates also become her weaknesses, and she will retain some of the creature’s personality for a short while after.

Biography: Ever since she was a toddler, she has had a love for animals, and always seemed to be capable of telling what an animal needed or wanted. Growing up in South Carolina, she had nearly every kind of household pet a kid could want at one point in time or another.
Until she was thirteen, she lived a normal life, filled with friends and family. Then, everything changed when her powers emerged.
A couple days after the development of Talia’s telekinesis and telepathy, her parents discussed the happenings in hushed tones behind closed doors, leaving Talia panic-stricken alone in her room with only her cat, McMuffin, for comfort.
With the newscast about the millions of others who had suddenly gained powers running through her mind, she couldn’t help but wish that she, too, was a cat. Such a simple life they lived, with only the worry of where best to nap to bother them. No sooner had the thought crossed her mind, than she felt as if her body had turned into taffy, morphing and shrinking until she came eye-to-eye with a frightened McMuffin.
That night, her parents, wanting to keep her safe from government and other, less enthusiastic non-powered people, forced her into a reclusive lifestyle, limiting her contact with the outside world until she could control her abilities.
After about a year, Talia finally had a handle on her shifting and imitation. She managed to convince her parents to allow her to attend a normal high school, where she graduated alongside her many friends with few incidents and managing to keep her Psychic side a secret from all but other Psychics.
Now, she lives in her own apartment a couple cities over with her best furry friends, McMuffin and Ronaldo, her full-time waitressing job just managing to pay the bills.
Free of her parents’ watchful eyes, Talia has begun to use her powers more and more, using them regularly to help the non-powered people and other animals whenever she can, regardless of what form that may take.
Though she continues to use caution, the sensation of being watched has been prickling at her nerves as of late. Whether the feeling comes from the heightened paranoia that often spills over from her frequent shifting into a cat, or from a real-life threat, she cannot quite say.

Hobbies: Playing with and talking to her cats, McMuffin and Ronaldo, volunteering at animal shelters, hiking, really anything that gets her out in nature.

Personality: When not influenced by a recent shift, Talia is a kind, caring, and gentle girl. She is highly empathetic, caring for both humans and animals alike... unless they threaten her family or loved ones. Then, even the fury of a bear should cower in her wake. She is an active person who often can’t sit still for long, and suffers from a heavy dose of impatience. She also absolutely loves to take advantage of her abilities, using them whenever she gets the chance.

Role in Sector X: None as of yet.

Additional Info: Though she can’t control them, animals have a natural attraction to, and are protective of, her--from the usually docile to normally hostile--so it’s rare for her to be found without some kind of creature following her around. Because of this, she often keeps a small bag with various cat and dog treats stuffed into one of her pockets.

Name: Andor Lund

Age: 23

Appearance: Andor stands at a respectable 6 feet 5 inches in height. He’s decently built. He has somewhat longer blonde hair. His remaining eye is surprisingly red in color, and the socket of the missing eye is kept covered by a patch.

Huginn and Muninn, his two ravens that are manifestations of his powers, tend to appear on his shoulders. They are both somewhat large ravens, each missing an eye. They do occasionally simply fly around him.

Power: “Huginn and Muninn”. These are manifestations of his power, both appearing as ravens. Huginn is missing his right eye, and Muninn is missing his left eye. Both give different aspects to Andor’s visual and aural senses.

Huginn gives Andor the capability of seeing psychic powers. This does not mean he can tell if someone is psychic, but instead allows him to see psychic powers that are manifested as if they were lights. Each kind of power has its own color. Muninn also pierces illusions if focused enough.

Muninn gives Andor the ability to see and hear any event going on within a couple hundred feet of himself. Normally, activating this causes a bit of sensory overload since he hears and sees so much at once, but with focus he can zero in on specific events.

Biography: Andor was a pretty average American for most of his life. He went to school, got good grades, and went to college the year after many of the psychics started to appear. He’d always thought that they were, in a way, freaks, people whose powers came from some force beyond understanding. Maybe it was radiation or whatever, but he was determined to keep going with his life. He went to a college in California, and his life changed there.

Andor began to see things. He could get brief glimpses of ethereal weirdness, especially around anyone that he knew to be psychic, but he always thought it was normal for that to appear. It wasn’t until a large raven perched on his windowsill that he knew something was weird. The raven had a single eye, blood red in color, and it was quite large.

Oh, and it spoke to him. Andor had an interesting time coming to grips with this, but he had seen that some humans had weird powers, maybe this raven got that too. It called itself Huginn. It asked about Andor, and what he wanted to do with his life, and what it was like to have arms. When Andor finally tired, he slept with Hugin still in the window.

The next day he awoke to a startling revelation - His left eye was missing, gone. And there were two ravens in the room. The second - missing an eye as well, called itself Muninn. The ravens had taken his eye. Or so they said. And then they began to follow him.

And boy did he have an interesting day. The twin birds perched on his shoulders, and he could see many things he couldn’t before. He seemed to know everything that was going on around him, and he could -see- psychic powers. Even the most subtle telepathy shone brightly to him. Andor knew that, like others in the world, he’d manifested some kind of psychic power. And it was horrible. He dropped out of college, because it was impossible to continue when he could tell the goings-on in every classroom in the building at once.

He was homeless for a while. It was hard enough to function right while having the two ravens giving them constant sensory overload. At least they were decent company though.

Sector X found him soon, luckily, and he allowed himself to be recruited. They helped him focus his powers so that he could blank out the input from his ravens and even cause them to vanish until called. Once he’d trained enough, he was given the task of recruitment and finding other psychics.

Hobbies: Spot-the-difference games, talking to Huginn and Muninn.

Personality: Andor is generally a pretty easygoing guy in social situations that do not require a lot of seriousness. If the situation does get serious, he tends to be quite quiet, usually because he’s focusing on his powers. He doesn’t particularly like to fight, instead preferring to observe from a distance if he must. He has proven to be a pretty good marksman though, despite having only a single eye.

Role in Sector X: Finder. Seek out new recruits and get them to join before Shadow can sink their claws into them.

Name: Nickolas Sharapov

Age: 33 (06/22/79)

Appearance:

Nickolas stands at five foot nine, with short brown hair and grey eyes. He has a bit of stubble, and permanent bags under his eyes. He is of slender build, with some signs of being a little malnourished at some point in his life. He does have muscles from his years of hard labor.

Power/ Talent: Nickolas can ‘talk’ to machines and ask favors of them. They usually respond in kind and do those favors. Due to this, he has used his powers in desperation for some rather unorthodox means. However, he prefers not to use his powers unless needed.

Biography: Nickolas was the third son born to his parents, in rural Russia. His parents were farmers, with no means to provide for the young son they had never planned for. So, they gave him up for adoption. However, this resulted in young Nickolas spending quite a few years in the orphanage, since the 80’s were not good times in Mother Russia.

Nickolas eventually ran away from the orphanage at age twelve. He lived on the streets, begging for money and food. Eventually he was found by the police and tossed back in the orphanage where he stayed till he was sixteen and aged out of the orphanage system. The Russia he aged out to was different than the one he was raised in. In the last five years, a lot had changed. The Soviet Union was no more, and Russia was changed.

He bounced around from job to job, doing a lot of hard labor with machines throughout most of his adult life. He never seemed to really settle anywhere, partly due to never feeling like he belonged anywhere. However, he always stayed in his home country, up until a point.

Things changed for Nickolas when he ‘awoke’ to his powers along with most of the rest of the psychics. He found he could talk to the machines he was working on, and get them to help him with his work. However, he was chased out of that job once it was found out he was ‘talking’ to the machines. Psychic’s tended to be feared in the early days, and this caused Nickolas no end of trouble.

He eventually decided to leave his home country, moving to the United States, where he hoped to find some sort of permanent work. So far, nothing. He does hope to find something soon.

Hobbies: Nickolas does not have much in the way of hobbies. He does enjoy having just pleasant conversations with machines. One ‘hobby’ he has is running, but for reasons.

Personality: Nickolas tends to be rather shy and quiet. He is use to blending into crowds easily. He is a bit flighty and twitchy. All he really wants is one place to really call home.

Role in Sector X: N/A [Will be most likely in the Technopath department when he joins.]

Additional Info: Speaks very broken English. Keeps all his belongings in one bag.
