I find myself wondering if artwork of redcoats burning down the white house would be too much at this point.
With all this talk of Starfire, I might dabble in a sheet for her. Or not, depends when my hands heal enough to write a sheet.

Are any of my church buddies still around?
Right, so the first IC scene will involve the group being split. Some of the students will be coming back from an out of state trip to Oklahoma when something dire will occur, then the remaining students will arrive to save em.

Who wants to be where?
Appearance:
Name: Alexander Elhanan
Age: 18
Mutation: Weather Control. On a local level, Alexander has, theoretically, complete control of the weather, however it takes a great deal of concentration at his current state to maintain weather patterns for an extended period of time. Equally, he has been known to subconsciously influence the weather if his emotions run wild enough.
Personality:
Alexander is both jovial and driven. He enjoys his stints as the centre of attention, often joking around while at the same time being productive. However, this does not mean he doesn't take what's important seriously, behind his jokes and smiles is a young man who would give his life for his people, and once, when it still stood, his country. What some would consider a nerd, his interest in said culture, somewhat tempered by as strong a fascination with several sports, did not prevent him form leading a popular life in various schools that should, in most cases, have treated him rather worse. His ability to connect with people, or at least make them laugh along with him, freeing him from the usual ridicule attached to his interests. Most of all now, Alexander wants to prove himself, to the mission at large, his teachers and fellow 'students' to show that he is willing and capable of doing what must be done.
History:
Alexander Elhanan was born to a British Jewish father and an Israeli mother, having met during one of his father's military tours of the Middle East, working largely as an adviser to the Israeli military. The two moved together to the UK for some time, until, on Alexander's 12th birthday, moving back to Israel. Throughout his childhood, Alexander was surrounded by a large supportive family, enjoying a healthy life both at home and in school. This all changed as the world began to break down, and his powers started to manifest.
Unlike many states across the world, Israel was not staunchly anti-mutant. Surrounded on all sides by an increasingly hostile Arab world, the Israeli government felt it could not content with such internal strife. Instead it was deemed that mutants were Israeli first, mutants second. They would be allowed to coexist, so long as they contributed like every other citizen of age. Thus the Israeli national services, at the grunt level, were filled with mutants, their powers turned outwards, rather than inwards at the state in which they lived. This, despite having its merits, only further alienated Israel from its neighbours, now harbouring the army of the Devil, hostility ramped up. Unlike Israel, the majority of the states in the middle east did not view Mutants as humans, but were not afraid to use them. In suicide runs of increasing devastation, Israel's defences began to break down, the nation plunged into chaos as a new Arab League now had the power and conviction to destroy their hated enemy. Due to his connections, Alexander's father was able to secure passage to America, through its military installations, the Israeli government's lack of extra identification for mutants the only thing that saved Alex from the USA's increasingly anti-mutant stance, something that had driven a wedge between the two governments, and cut support during the invasion.
Alex's life in the US was far more troubled, wracked by guilt and horror at the events still occurring in the Middle East and struggling to hide his often erratic powers, the stress boiled over until, in a breakdown, his powers caused his new home town, outside Miami, to be struck by a series of freak tornadoes. He ran away from home before his parents could find him, using his money saved up from various jobs over the years to get by travelling. Having never been forced into a mutant school, he found himself appalled at the treatment of those who had failed to hide their mutation, so much so that in the incident that drew the attention of his current Cell, he helped a number of young mutants escape from juvy, unfairly blamed for a host of crimes, or at least he thought. Among those he helped was a genuine murdered, along with several who had genuinely done nothing wrong. It was yet another lesson he eventually learned about the world.
Since arriving at the Cell, Alex has been a prominent member of the students, not quite a leader, happy to leave the de-facto responsibility to Helena, he has never-the-less become a rock for the others to lean on when they need to, or just need a cheering up. This role vanished for several months with the news his parents had been lynched by an anti-mutant gang, a certain local suggesting to them his roll in matters from years before. Crushed, Alex only fought through said depression with the help of his fellow students and the teachers, and is just now returning to his usual self, even if the darkness still plagues him.
OOC/Misc: (A catch-all in case you wanted to include something IC or OOC, but didn't have a space for it.)
None yet, might think of something.
