Name: Thomas Selwyn
Age: 16
Power: Empathy
Appearance:

Bio: Due to his 'condition,' as well as an actual physical infirmity, Thomas lived a rather sheltered life when he was young. Besides being blind from birth, he was known to exhibit peculiar behavior for apparently no reason. Doctors and psychologists could only explain his occasional bizzare behavior as severe mood swings. Only he knew that the powerful emotions he experienced were the result of the feelings of those around him. Thomas lost his mother when a fire destroyed the building she worked nights in, leaving him oblivious to the loss until the police came around later the next day. That was the day that then seven-year-old Thomas first set foot in the orphanage.

Name: Haven Renner

Age: 15

Power: Healing (not all inclusive and incredibly draining on her person)

Appearance:

Bio: Haven might as well have grown up an orphan. With no father to speak of and a mother who would rather chase her high than care for her child, Haven was on her own more often than not. She excelled in school but often found herself in fights because of her sarcastic, aggressive and combative nature. One day she came home from school early on a suspension and found a man beating her mother to death. The man came after her but she managed to escape the house in time. She was picked up by the police after living on the streets for nearly a week. They sent her to the "special" orphanage after she healed a boy who had fallen at the first children's home the placed her in. Now she's just biding her time until she's old enough to be out on her own.

Name: Leo Vladernhearth (Last name is usually not spoken of)
Age: 15
Power: Materialization (Can create various physical objects.)
Appearance:

Bio: Leo was born under the Vladernhearth clan, a clan known for their multiple dojos across the world. He was born to be a fighter, whether it be hand to hand combat or some other form of combat. The parents kept young Leo's power a secret in fear that the other branches of the large family would come after him for experiments. However, one day his parents died in a plane crash leaving the boy alone. The parents left a note to the butler to take Leo to the orphanage if ever they die before he turned 18.

And so, when he was but 8 years old, he was sent to the orphanage. He was already told by his butler that he had to stay there because of his unnatural abilities and the butler was never seen again.

Name: Yumiko Saito
Age: 12
Power: Fire manipulation
Appearance: the girl with the red hair

Name: Mikine Saito
Age: 12
Power: Water manipulation
Appearance: The girl with the blue hair

Bio- The Saito sisters are from a very prestigious family. They had a very happy life: they went to school, had friends, a happy family and even another sibling along the way. Mikine was the youngest of the twins and was a bit of an air head when it came to many things. Her sister Yumiko was the oldest of the two girls and was more of a responsible person. Thou the girls were different they were very closer. The girls had an easy life with little struggles, but that all came to end 12 short years later.

On the girls 12th birthday the family was on their way back from the ice skating rink they were at for the girl's brithday. Their mother who was about 5 months along was chatting happily with the girls about the upcoming baby while their dad was driving. They were on a large hill and it was raining pretty bad. Mr. Saito was being very careful since he knew the railing up in the hill was very old and needed to be replaced, but the car behind him was swaying back and forth as if trying to pass them. The car ended up getting too close and ended up hitting the back of their car causing them to spin out of control. Their car flew over the railing and down the steep hill where it ended all smashed up and four people trapped inside. During the crash two glows, fire and blue, came out of their hands whcjh went unnoticed by the girls.

Yumiko, the only one who stayed conscious during the entire crash, saw the entire was smoking and knew she needed to get her family out. Yumiko looked at her sister and tried to undo her seat belt. Her sister was barely breathing and she was bleeding a lot from head. Yumiko got the seat belt off and kicked open the door. She slowly dragged her sister towards the heavy tree line and when she ran back for her parents when the car blew into family pushing Yumiko back against the ground.

The person from the car came into view with guilty eyes as he saw the state of the girls, though a bit surprised that none of the girls seem to have suffered more wounds then they had gained. He quickly called for an ambulance and the two girls was taken to the nearest hospital.

Yumiko sat by her sister who was asleep after having surge to remove the glass that had entered her sister's head when she saw her hands glowing red. Confused she flicked two of her together and flames came out a little before vanishing. Yumiko saw the a blue glow around her sister's hands as well leaving her confused.

The two stayed in the hospital for a few weeks to recover. They quickly learned after a few mishaps in the bathroom they had powers. Yumiko could manipulate fire while her sister could manipulate water. When both girls were recovered enough, a person from social services came to pick the, up and the two were taken to an orphanage. Little did they know that this orphanage that had kids that were just like them.

Name:Jack'shade' Mills

Age:12

Appearance:Jack wears a snowy white jacket over a grey t-shirt, he has reasonably pale skin that makes his smokey blue eyes stand out while his hair is a light brown shade with a single streak of grey running along the side of his head

Power-Darkness manipulation:jack is able to control masses of darkness to do basically anything he wants, he could for example:shape the darkness into a dense ball of shadow and break a solid peice of concrete in half, assuming there would be enough darkness to do so,jack sometime has trouble controlng his power when his judgement is clouded, so if he were mad, he could do as much as he could if he were calm. jacks power depends soley on the absense of light, the more light in an area, the less he could do, so if there were a small amount of light in an area, it would barley hinder his power, but if there were a lot of light, he couldnt do much, another thing that hinder his uses is that jack can only use his power so much before he himself gives out, reguardless of the light, eventually, jack would just fall to the floor in a dizzy sate for about 5-10 minutes

Personality:Jack is a nice person when he isnt mad, but is dangerously silent when he is,otherwise he is smart clever and respectful to others, he likes listening to songs in his spare time as well as drawing whatever comes to mind

Bio:up until jack was 7 years old, he ironically was scared of the darkness, he always felt as if something could jump out at him at any given time.a few months after he turned 7, he started to feel safe in darkness, not just being okay with it but actually being away from light, shortly after, he discovered his power and stated hanging around the darkness even more to the point of earning the name'shade',when asked why he felt such a connecion to the darkness, he couldnt give them a proper answer
5 years later, people started to realize that jack could control the darkness, and it made sense to them why he liked it so much, one day his friends payed him a visit and caught him shaping darkness into nightmarishly deep shadowy spheres, jack noticed his friends at the door, they were shocked and thought he wasnt humn, despite his best efforts to calm them down, a few days later, his family decided that they had the audacity to no longer allow jack to 'play with shadows', jack told them that he would control darkness for as long as he liked, a fight broke out between him and his father, his dad told him that he could either'get rid of your obsession with darkness or leave'
jack couldnt stop himself from pinning his father to the wall with a shard of darkness in his shoulder, realizing what he had done, he grabbed is jacket and ran until he found the orphanage, hoping not to repeat his mistake

Name: Selena ‘Lena’ DeVer

Age: 17

Power: Shapeshifting - Wolf

Appearance:



Bio: Selena only recently discovered her powers within the past year. Before this, she lived a normal life with her parents and younger brother. But when her powers awoke, something else came with it. Her new form brought with it a new personality, one filled with thoughts of rage, lust and death. It called itself Lena. Lena would always be in the back of Selena's head, taunting and insulting her. Lena can only control Selena when she is in her wolf form, giving her some form of protection, though Lena has forced Selena to shift a few times, either through trickery or brute force in the girls moments of weakness. Scared by what she could potentially do to her family, she ran away from her home and made her way to the orphanage, hoping it was the sanctuary she had heard of.

Power: Hugh can not only see and communicate with other worldly entities (ghost, PSI based plagiarist, and demonic-like presences. This is non-voluntary, and only works at certain times. It allows her to travel outside of her body as well, in a clairvoyance like way, causing her in world body to go limp and her to go into a deep sleep. She is able to move very light things and if with powerful emotions be seen as an apparition in this form. Other worldly beings are also drawn to her.
Appearance: ((really having trouble finding a good picture. This will have to do))

Bio: Hugh was born with an innate ability to see very spiritual beings. As a child it haunted him, seeing terrified people, monstrous beings attacking him but with no success and many more strange things. His parents thought he was just a creative kid, but his desperation to get rid of this curse made them quickly decide he needed help. They tried all sorts of things, but nothing was a permanent solution. They where forced to watch their son slowly grow distant, accepting his ability and allow it to haunt him. He was defeated, and basically a shell of their old son. When they moved next time, they felt their son was turning into a monster, as he had lost his sense of morality, and so they moved without him while he was at school. Hugh did not mind much, letting himself waste away, almost eager for death. That was when he was found for the orphanage and taken in. He didn't mind much, hoping they'd be able to help.

Name: Gavin

Age: 7

Power: Nature Friend

Appearance:Gavin is a relatively cute little seven year old, though he is often thought to be younger due to his short stature. He is 3' 09" tall, which is more the height of a 5 1/2 year old. He is a bit thin for his height, weighing in a 42 lbs. soaking wet. He has long shaggy straight blond hair, often unbrushed. His eyes are bright blue with a sparkle when happy or excited. He has fair skin, but from summer through early fall will sport a moderate all-over tan. Like most little boys, he is often at least faintly dirty.

Bio:The Vicus (Latin for village) Family was a nomadic commune formed in the mid 1970s. Their number would vary, averaging thirty adults and twenty children (from infant to mid teens), with people joining for a time and leaving, some for a while and some permanently. The core group was thirteen adults and six children, including Gavin and his parents. The Family held practically everything in common - money, jobs, possessions, and child rearing. Gavin's birth parents spent less time with him than any of the other parents; their energies, time, and focus devoted mostly to Causes that the Family found important.

The Family was Vegan and an early adopter of almost exclusively using locally sourced, organically produced, non-hybridized fruits and vegetables (Natural is Good). They used practically no factory processed foods, considering the chemical additives to be a leading cause of cancer (Poison! Poison!). They were heavily into Animal Rights, opposing animal testing for any reason and nearly all uses of animals and animal derived products (Meat is Murder!). Another firmly held belief was that vaccinations were primarily a method for the government to eventually track and control the population, so they did not have any of their children vaccinated (No Mind Control!). They also decried rampant consumerism and unchecked capitalism and were extremely active in the Occupy movement, thus most everything they had or purchased (when they couldn't make it) was second or third hand (or more) if not scavenged (Too many possessions are a burden on the Soul!). Overdevelopment and urban sprawl (Save the Trees!), pollution (especially from industry) (Give a Hoot, Don't Pollute!), use of nonrenewable energy sources (No Blood for Oil!), nuclear power (No Nukes!), and the military-industrial complex (Hey Hey LBJ, How many kids did you Kill Today!) were other things they were concerned about.

The Family had a strong sense of spirituality, borrowing parts from many Eastern religions and belief systems as well as Native American tribes, Australian Aboriginal beliefs, and even some elements of Judeo-Christianity and others. But their primary beliefs were heavily rooted in a mix of New Ageism, Neo-Paganism, and especially the reverence of Gaia. They were not anti-religious, but strongly felt that most organized religious groups had badly strayed from a more positive path. These were primarily those with a substantial hierarchal and patriarchal tradition.

The care and raising of the children was shared equally by all the adults of the Family, at least that's how it was supposed to work. In practice, things were different. Some were better and some worse at dealing with the children. And some people were excused as their duties to the Causes of the Family were deemed to be more important. Gavin's biological parents were in that group. Gavin was cared for as well as the other children for the most part. He was given affection and attention, and that was enough when he was little. But when he was three to four, he began to notice the bond between the other children and their parents. At that age he couldn't comprehend what he was missing or why his biological parents spent little time with him, but he knew that something was missing.

The adults of the Family were generally well educated, with a sizable number having a Bachelors degree or better. This was an asset when it came to the teaching of the children. Those with degrees in education and teaching certificates adapted various instructional philosophies to develop a curriculum that was heavily based on the Montessori and Waldorf methods for early childhood education. This Frankensteinian creation was particularly appropriate for the nomadic lifestyle the Family lead, seldom staying in any one place long enough to enroll the children in local schools if they had even been inclined to. The vast majority of the children had spent little or no time in a traditional school setting. Gavin was in the second group. Due to the methodology, Gavin's education was a bit uneven as he focused on the things that interested him to the detriment of other subjects. He was ahead of his age level in reading, arithmetic, geography, and science. Well behind in writing and spelling, and social studies and history. He enjoyed helping fix things, being small was often an advantage working in confined spaces. But what he loved the most and had a real talent for was music.

Music was a constant in the Family. There were always a few musical instruments around, mostly guitars, but banjos, fiddles, flutes and recorders, an occasional mandolin or dulcimer, various small brass instruments, and of course drums - lots of drums for a Circle. For a couple years the Family even had an old battered, oft out of tune, upright piano they hauled around in the back of an old school bus. When Gavin was four, a musician who traveled with the Family for most of a year noted the boy's keen interest and began teaching him to play on whatever instruments were available. Though this tutelage ended when the musician went his own way, it left Gavin with a solid grounding in musical theory and practice, and established a very firm foundation for him to continue to this day. The musician also gave the boys a Suzuki Professional harmonica, which has remained one of his most prized personal possessions.

A couple of months before Gavin turned 7, his actual biological parents took him when they went to a large protest and planning conference in Mexico. Gavin throughly enjoyed the time, but everything fell apart when his parents (along with other activists) were murdered (which Gavin does not know about) in the desert. Gavin spent a short time on his own in Mexico, before being found and turned over to the local authorities. Due to diplomatic problems as well as bureaucratic indifference and apathy (on both sides of the border), it took a bit of time before he was returned to the US and placed in the great malstrom that is the child welfare system. He was bounced around from emergency shelter to group home to foster home, with no one agency wanting to take responsibility for yet another expense, as well as the problem of the few places that he stayed for more than a day or two noticing and being concerned about his "power." Finally, one particularily enterprising bureaucrat actually read the reports on Gavin from the various places and putting two and two together decided to try and send him to the home for children with powers.

Personality, mannerisms, and behaviors

"March to the beat of a different drum," "Stop and smell the roses," "Find your bliss," "Question Authority," "Be yourself - everyone else is already taken," these are all phrases that could be used to describe Gavin's normal personality and outlook on life. He is generally a sweet and cheerful boy, full of energy, someone who gets along well with others, and tries to see the good in all living beings.

Currently though, "Shell Shocked," "Fish out of water," "Deer in the headlights," and "Adrift" would be more apt phrases. His perceived abandonment and rejection by his parents and the Family has eroded his sense of belonging and security. This has been exacerbated by the way that the various social services agencies have treated him. More rejection - 'we don't have room for him," "we already have enough children here," "he's not our responsibility," and "we can't afford to care for him" are just some of the things he overheard being shuffled from place to place. Gavin didn't understand that there were simply not enough resources available, he thought they were rejecting him personally. At this time he is looking for any bit of stability and friendship to cling to.

As mentioned in the background, Gavin loves music and is more than a bit talented in that area. He enjoys listening, learning, and playing. He can read music somewhat, and learn new compositions in that manner, but his usual method is to listen to performances and play by ear. Currently, music has become something to cling to, a security blanket of sorts. When he begins to feel overwhelmed he might start humming a tune, or tapping out a beat with his hands, mouthing the words, play a imaginary keyboard or some combination.

Gavin does not have the same understanding of personal property that most people do. Since the Family was a true communal group and held almost everything "in common trust," he regards most items as belonging to everyone and thus most everything is available for anyone to use as needed. In his mind, he is not stealing, just using what is everyone's. There are exceptions to this, notably musical instruments (but not pianos) and "sacred" items and keepsakes. You could borrow someone's guitar, but must ask first and of course you never even touch a person's sacred bundle or spirit bag. Clothing, pencils, paper, crayons, food, and even money are among the types of items that belong to all. He very abstractly understands the basic idea of money and buying things with it but does not have a firm grasp of the concept. Someone who is unscrupulous could really take advantage of him.

Personal privacy is another thing he has a differing view of. Gavin will walk into a room without thinking of knocking, even if the door is closed. But if someone says they want to be alone, he will not bother them. Related to personal privacy is body modesty and nudity. He has only the barest (no pun intended) notion of body modesty. Clothes are something that you wear when it's cold, or to keep from being bitten by insects, or to keep from getting sunburned, or just because you wanted to. The Family were not nudists/naturalists but definitely had no taboos concerning the wearing or not wearing of clothes. Related to both is Gavin's understanding of human (and animal) biological functions, especially the Birds and Bees. He does know exactly where babies come from and how they are made, having witnessed the process from conception to birth multiple times. He is absolutely uninterested in the whole process.

Just a few oddities for flavor:

He has never used a telephone and doesn't know how to use one. The same for computers, laptops, tablets, cellphones or much of technology.

He has never had his birthday celebrated, the Family instead celebrated that a woman had given birth but not the child.

He has not been vaccinated and was not ever seen by a M.D. until he was in the social services system.

He has never been to the movies, but has seen old 16mm films projected on a sheet hung on the side of a bus.

He has never had ice cream.

He had never watched TV until the Mexican jail. At the various homes, shelters, etc., he saw more but still doesn't understand the attraction. The exception being channels like MTV and VH1, programs like Lawrence Welk and He Haw reruns, and any televised concerts and such.

Added - He does not know his (or his parents) last names.

Age: 8

Powers: Telekinesis
Direct eye contact with Connor causes worst memories to replay in head for the duration

Appearance: Connor has short brown hair, blue eyes, and stands about 4'1". He has fair skin and typically wears sweatpants and a t-shirt. He also covers his eyes with a black piece of fabric wrapped around his head so it stays attached.

Personality: Connor is quiet, still trying to get over his rejection by his foster parents. He is surprisingly polite, given his age, and is also dependent on others to show him around. He pretends he is blind so that people don't ask him to take off his covering.

Bio: Connor, luckily, was born to parents who accepted him. (although they never could find out why they kept remembering things) He eventually discovered that people seemed to freak out because of his eyes, though he didn't know why, so he covers them. Besides that, Connor was actually pretty happy.
That changed when he was 6. He was going to the store with his parents when he accidentally turned the steering wheel from the backseat, causing the car to veer into oncoming traffic. He survived, but his parents were killed. He was put into a foster home, but the family thought he was some sort of demon and cast him out into the streets.

James Berken

Age: 16

Power: Currently Unknown. But his powers seem to deprive from the creature that is part of him, be it a manifestation of emotions or just a part of him that grew in power over the rest of him, no one will be able to know. Outside the host body, the being would manifest into a black cloud in the form of an animal, any animal it chooses. In this state, James would be faster and more agile, and the creature would be able to fight alongside him. But in this state is when James would be at his most powerful but most vulnerable as well. If the being was inside, James wouldn’t die to just anything, a bullet to the brain would mostly likely only cause a scratch as the being strengthens his body. But outside, the being would leave it’s more vulnerable part inside him. Thus it would push the pain and injuries on James, showing in minor injures that slowly start to increase in severity.

Appearance:

Bio: James was a strange child, even from birth. People and parents saying they found things happening around him, whenever he was in danger that he came out alive and well where others would be dead. At the age of 7 would be when it was found out what was happening with him, a group of bullies pushed him around and finally corner him. Him with a black eye and looking like he was going to be hurt more, but suddenly the bullies were being hurt. Being pushed around and even tossed around a bit as a dark cloud flowed from a cut on the top of his hand that never healed. Opening to show the darkness flowing from it and attacking the bullies. Sending them running before taking at first the look of a cat. The darkness flowing around it as it looked at him, that day was when things changed for the child. Thrown out after the stories became increasing against him, he never trusted others. Even those he thought he could trust betrayed him. He was seeing it more and more while on the streets with the creature that called itself a “Void” as a friend. He saw people like him, different and strange, bullied and hurt and rejected by society. He didn’t like such prejudice against people like him. Soon him and his “Friend” would be doing what they can. Stealing from the usual “Normal” Society and giving to the supernaturals. Finding homes for others. As time went on, he and the being he came to call “Neric” would hear of a place where multiple supernaturals were held. But not knowing they were there for the betterment of themselves or anything that is good for them. He and Neric would come up with a plan to break them out, them trusting eachother till the day they met. They were there for eachother, now and forever.

James: “So what’s the plan today my shadowy friend?”

Neric: “I believe that you can’t plan the future, it’s in constant motion. We can only think, hope and see about what will be.”

James: “I couldn’t agree with you more.”
