@FallenTrinity All right. So there are a few issues, most of which being that we are supposed to be going for almost entirely untrained mutants right now. Basically everyone is supposed to be very unrefined and untrained, and I don't want your guy to be too far ahead of everyone else. I know that you could write him so that he isn't, but I am concerned about the fact that he is so old. I feel that his age will make it difficult to justify his being unrefined or untrained. Also, I was just wondering if there is any chance to stop the process of conversion, as well as if there is any way to reverse it. Do the shades, per se, classify as a living being still? Lastly, were you thinking that this guy had a mutant gene that was activated by the radiation, or was it just lucky that he survived and he mutated by consequence? Yep! That's all :) Lemme know about those three things and we should be good. This doesn't necessarily mean that you need to change anything, so long as you are able to accept his being at a base level, where he is relatively unrefined and trained, as like Prudence said, the sky is the limit! Thanks!
