Name: Will Helena Carson.
Age: Twenty.
Gender: Born female. She isn’t concerned with pronouns.
Mutation: Geokinesis – The power to manipulate the earth at her will. While still in the midst of discovering the overall potential of her powers, her capabilities are at their minimum. As of now, Will struggles with otherwise using her mind instead of her hands, and gradually increasing the amount of damage created.
Personality: Over the years, Will has grown to be exceptionally strong. She holds herself rather independently and has the mentality that if no one fucks with her, she won’t fuck with them. While this attitude has proved to lead a lonely life, living in her own secluded world is what’s easiest for Will. Choosing to stay away from others and do what needs to be done rather than get involved further than what is necessary or advised is what Will has adapted to.
Will is, so to speak, an old soul, but she has the potential of being a large dumb ass when it comes to other’s emotions. With this in mind, being sociable isn’t one of her strong suits, nor is trusting anyone other than herself. Her idea of survival is strictly that of food, shelter, clothing, vodka, and sex. She’s a very simple-living person, but holds a very complex mind. One that takes both time and effort to delve deep into.
Not that Will would give anyone the opportunity anyway.
History: Will Carson was born into a loving Catholic family consisting of a stay-at-home mother, a wealthy and otherwise well-rounded father, an older and much more enlightening older brother by the name of Tristan, and a younger but also quite knowledgeable brother the family nicknamed Bet (full name Beckett). Although Will was the middle child, it can be said that she was treated more as the youngest, being the only daughter of the three.
Will, although respectively treated as a girl, did not understand that she was one. While her mother so eagerly attempted to put her daughter into dresses and brought the gift of Barbie dolls, it was evident that the toddler was not at all interested in such things. Seeing her older brother play video games and fight off bad guys with his action figures intrigued her, bringing her to play along with him.
Though her mother worried, her father ensured her that it was nothing but a phase. Despite having not been convinced by such reassuring words, the birth of her younger brother Bet bought Will some time to further understand her liking of boy things. Will began dressing like that of her older brothers around the age of five, when her older brother could no longer fit in them. It was during this time that her mother finally began to see the progression of Will’s behavior, and further insisted that she wear and act as a girl.
Will, under the surveillance of her mother, was forced to wear uncomfortable dresses, skirts, and floral tops when attending school. However, while this upset Will beyond belief, there was still something that her mother couldn’t take away from her, and that was recess. Out in the back with all the other kids allowed Will to partake in boy activities such as football, racing, and tag. On numerous occasions, the boy’s forbid her from playing, but this did not prevent her from entering the game on her own account anyhow.
In due time, Will became a valued asset to every game played, as she was both fast, agile, and tough. Perhaps the only issue to this was the fact that she went home with ripped and mud-caked clothes. This upset her mother, and with this anger, she brought her brothers to promise that they would not allow Will to play with boys. Her brothers, of course, envied their sister to an extent, as she was fed attention from both parents that they simply couldn’t receive. With this in mind, both brothers made an effort to keep Will out of all games, informing the other boys of her class that she had ‘cooties’ given to her by the other girls.
Will was shunned out from both befriending any of the boys and playing with them. All of her friends began to resent her and all recesses were spent with her sitting on the sides, watching the boys from a far distance.
After several years, middle school came around, and these years were spent with Will questioning who she was and why she did not feel the same attraction the other girls held toward the boys in school. Nearly every conversation throughout her dreadful school day would revolve around the sole topic of a boy none of them could have and the hatred they had for the girl who was dating him during that week. Each then led to her, with her friends asking of who her crush was, only to avert back to them, as Will never had an answer.
During her last year of middle school, she grew very close to a girl by the name of Angela, who she spent a majority of her days with. Will felt an attraction towards this girl, more so than anyone she’d ever been around. It was Angela that stole her first kiss, and it was Angela that brought Will to realize who she was and why she’d never had crushes on guys before. Angela, prior to the kiss, had shared a devastating secret of being what she called ‘bi-sexual’, which she explained to be an attraction towards both girls and boys.
Will found herself wondering if there was such a term that was used for a girl that was attracted only to other girls. According to Angela, those girls were called ‘lesbians’. Finding this to be both strange and exciting, as she’d finally discovered who she was, she shared the news with her mother, telling her blatantly, “Mom, I think I’m a lesbian.”
The girl had not come to see her mistake until much later – when her mother removed her from public school and home schooled her for two years. Will was not only given homework related to school, but homework brought her attention to the bible. These two dreadful years were spent with her being lectured on homosexuality and the very thought of it being a sin. With the words of her mother, Will had begun to believe that her whole life was a sin, and her very existence was a mistake that God had forgotten to overlook.
At age fifteen, Will tried to take her life. She did not succeed, as her Bet stopped her before she was given the opportunity, and after a lengthy conversation between the two, Will finally began to accept her sexuality, and demanded to be put in public school. Her mother was reluctant to doing so, as she was afraid of her daughter being exposed to other homosexual tendencies, but Will threatened both parents that if she was not put in public school, she would run away and never return. Neither one took the chance, as Will was not one to bluff, and enrolled her in the public high school her older brother attended.
There, Will was not only accepted, but played two years of basketball. Her mother, of course, did not come to fully acknowledge her daughter’s wishes, but did not take them away either. At the end of the girl’s senior year, she developed her abilities, having thrown a rock into the water only for other rocks to follow, all under the control of her palm.
As her powers grew by the day, Will knew she could not stay with her parents. Denying the scholarship at the college of her dreams, Will fled town after graduation in her mustang, with a handful of cash she’d saved up from allowances. Using this money, Will drove as far away from home as she could possibly go, coming about a small city in Arizona. Here, she conjured up enough to rent a shitty apartment, and found a job at a bowling rink.
For two years Will lived here, bidding her time to drugs, alcohol, and sex. She wasted away her days working and spent her nights partying. It was a cycle that did not come to a halt until a certain letter was received inviting her to join a group of what the person referred to as ‘mutants’. After several days of contemplating her options, Will decided to head for New Mexico, where she was welcomed by a young and beautiful X.
Other: She likes the ladies.
Helena Britt: It bothers me that my mind isn't my own around her. She has the ability to tap into my thoughts whenever she pleases so she probably knows how often I think about her and her girl. I mean, come on, how does anyone get any studying done with her in the room? She's got the full package - the body, the ass, the attitude, especially. She's the perfect specimen, really, and I'd love to feel every inch of it.
Rob: It's obvious his name isn't Rob, but I don't ask questions. Neither does anyone else. He's a pretty chill dude and easy to get along with. I suppose my favorite thing about him would be the fact that I can smoke and drink with him. Not necessarily to talk much, but to just sit there and enjoy the high or enjoy the state of being drunk. He and I have a silent mutual agreement of not talking about a ton of bull shit and just being blatant about our interests. We smoke, we drink, he teaches a few things. It's pretty chill, really.
Annelise Freign: Jesus, I could stare at this girl for hours on end. Not gonna lie, I've had dreams of fucking her, but it's obvious she's not into me. Not that I don't like a good challenge. I've noticed how often she catches me gawking at her, but her expression usually isn't that of disgust, but interest. Call me crazy, but I swear I see a spark of interest, only for it to gradually fade away. She's a flirt, that much is obvious, but she has something steady with her girlfriend, Helena. I just can't help but feel like there should be one little thing added to their little relationship: me.
Noel Shaw: I don't know much about this kid. He's a bit on the timid side and doesn't talk very much. Not too sure what he's capable of, which I think is the scariest part. The quiet ones are always the most dangerous. It's rare that I'll see him anywhere but locked in his room, and when I do, I'll wave and he'll wave back - but in such a way that you can tell he's hesitant in doing so. It's not like he means to be so shy, it's just how he was raised, I guess.
Alexander Eihanan: A good guy, to say the least. He's actually one of my favorites if you'd believe it. He and I get along pretty well and we'll play video games now and again. It's nice to just talk to a guy about girls and not be judged. That's the kind of friend he is to me. It's something I've needed and never really had much of growing up. He reminds me of my brother, Bet. An easy going guy with a few tricks up his sleeve and the brain of an all around genius. He doesn't see it, I don't think, which is pretty unfortunate.
X: A strong woman with a difficult past and I cannot even begin to say how much respect I have for her. If she weren't a teacher, you can bet your ass I'd be hitting on her, but she's one of the few - if not the only girl - I've ever come by that I won't try and make a move on. Not because she's not attractive ... but because I see her as a superior. It's kind of lame, honestly, that I have such respect for her. It's not what I'm used to. I like being around her, though. She's kind of like the older sister I never had.
Jack Smith: A nice boy with a lot going for him. He's easy to get along with and while I don't know him all that well, it's easy for me to have small conversations with him. He's an all around cool kid, ha. Pun intended. He's come a long way - just like the rest of us - and I dunno, it gives me a feeling of what a 'proud mother' would be like when I see what he can do, I just try really hard not to express it. Don't want the kid thinking I care too much.
Chase Fletcher: I'd be lying if I said that this kid hadn't brought out a soft side in me. Something about him causes me to see a side of myself I haven't in a long while and that scares the fucking shit out of me. He's one of those people that you feel you can tell anything to - and it gets to a point that I hate to reach. I know for a fact he sees me distancing myself, but I couldn't be bothered to care. It's better for me and for him if it's kept that way.
