NAME: Skyler Nieves  AGE: Eight/Twenty Two POWER: Empathy OCCUPATION: College Student / Computer Cafe TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY

Skyler and her twin brother, Ryan, were born and raised in Lake Grimstone– their mother was taken there a few weeks before she gave birth to them–Skyler is the youngest of the twins, born twenty-three minutes after her brother, something her brother loves to remind her. Since birth Skyler was the perfect baby. She hardly cried and could sleep the entire night–often through her brother’s cries. Many nights her mother would wake her up just to make sure that nothing had happened to her in her sleep. As she got older, she didn’t change much; she was still the child that every parent dreams of having. Because both of her parents possess powers, Skyler grew up at a much faster pace but she doesn’t feel like she missed out on anything, other than having her father around of course.

The girl excelled in everything that she did, from her power to her school work,. She always tried her hardest to be the best in everything that she did. At times it came across as if she thought that she was better than everyone else, but it wasn’t that at all. Skyler simply wanted to be the best version of herself for her mother. She wanted to make Blake proud and to give her the happiness that she felt her mother was missing. Fitting in was never something that Skyler tried to do; she was her own person and was okay with not following the crowds. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to try and fit in, she just had other things that she felt were more important than people viewing her as one of the popular kids–another difference between her and her brother who has always been quite popular.

Growing up, Skyler always wondered about her father but she was afraid to ask her mother, afraid of triggering any bad memories or re-opening old wounds. Instead she simply took what her mother offered with regards to her father. It wasn’t until not long ago that she got more than just superficial things about the man who made up half of her DNA. Skyler went from knowing the simple little lie her mother told her about her mysterious father to being given a brief story–they dated, he left, then he came to Lake Grimstone–over the course of a few months. Of course, she isn’t entirely sure that this information is true, maybe these are all just rumors, but what if it is true? Part of her wants to know who this man is, but then she wonders if doing that would hurt her mother in any way.

When trying to get a date, a smile goes a long way. Both in indicating your interest in them and honestly it’s scientifically backed that it improves a persons mood. If you consistently smile at them then naturally they’ll unconsciously associate with a slightly better mood. I naturally smile a lot because I love life and pretty women so I’m not so sure how well a fake smile would work. You have no idea how many numbers I’ve gotten and they say something like “ I was wondering when you would ask, always smiling at me like that”.Flirt a little bit with that receptionist or grocer or gas attendant. Even if they’re taken it’ll still brighten their day.Believe in yourself. Believe you’re worthy to date. Because you are.All women are beautiful. Every single one. They may not be your “type” but I really don’t believe in a type. Don’t limit yourself. That person you may not be totally physically attracted to may have something else inside them that insanely attracts you.When dating:Honesty- complete and total honesty is the key to a good relationship. Which leads into my second pointOpen communication. You must have total open communication with your partner. You can’t hold shit in. Just don’t do it in an emotional state, and if you over emotional, take a break and pick it up later. The only good emotional conversations are the love ones.Tell them they’re pretty. Every single day in a thousand different ways. A lot of women are like oh shush or claim they don’t like these statements. They do.This relates to point one, but don’t lie and don’t cheat. Obviously. If you wanna fuck someone else, break up with your girl. But keep in mind that if you’re in a relationship with someone who genuinely loves you, you’re fucking up.Just be a genuine human being have fun and enjoy life.Take her on dates. Show random acts of affection. There’s so many different ways to show your affection.If you’re unhappy. Break up. I know it’s easier to maintain the status quo and it’s scary to imagine being single again. But it’s not good to maintain toxic and unhealthy relationships.This point is super important. Take heed. Don’t move in with each other without serious serious serious consideration. Honestly I’d say over a year and if you’re still deadly in love. A lot changes when you move in together and when you do it’s a lot harder to do the above point.That’s all I have for now. Might be obvious, but few practice it. That’s it. We are all humans looking for love. I mean we are love lol. Comments appreciated. via /r/dating_advice

NAME: Ryder Greene AGE: Thirty One POWER: Molecular Manipulation OCCUPATION: Guard TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY

Ryder is an only child, growing up was somewhat lonely due to his father’s involvement with the forces, more specifically the CIA, which of course Ryder was not allowed to know a single thing about. That was until he turned 20, having worked so hard to follow in the footsteps of his father, despite spending his younger years growing up in England with his mother and her family. Ryder was finally accepted into field work, his power being of great use when things went wrong. He managed to use his power discretely for two years, only letting his team and those above him know. It was for the country’s well-being, and with his father being of a high position no one questioned anything.

Though, when things went wrong in the field one day all of that changed. Ryder was told that he would be sent to Lake Grimstone, there he would be assigned one of two towns to live in and that he would be working there as a guard.  At first, Ryder was completely against it, finding every way around it but as the government assured him it was for the best, he did as they asked and found himself in Lake Grimstone, guarding the people there, he feels as if the guards in Lake Grimstone don’t really care. And of course with some of them having no powers who can blame them? Their attitude rubbed off some on Ryder and he too began to slackened, there’s times when he lets people get away with things that the government is against them doing. The way he sees it is that if they have to be stuck there then they might as well have some fun.

Ryder is generally a friendly guy though can come off a serious at times due to his fairly serious home life growing up and general job until he arrived at Lake Grimstone. When he’s angry, everyone will know about it because he’s not afraid to put his feelings into actions, as many have learnt through time. That also happens to be one of his downfalls. He’s respectful to women, something his mother taught him to be before she died suddenly when he was only seventeen. Generally, Ryder is easy to get along with, provided you don’t give him a reason not to play nice.

NAME: Clark Morrison  AGE: Twenty-Seven OCCUPATION: Cyber Security  TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY

Clark Morrison, before Lake Grimstone, was pretty much average. He Grew up in a suburb with a two-parent home. Mom worked part-time, Dad worked a 9 to 5 office job. He loved video games and computers, and soccer on the weekends. His sister and he fought a little, but not a lot. Just normal stuff. He went to college, majored in Comp Sci, and mostly minded his business. Yes, his life seemed boring from the outside, but he never had any complaints. Being normal was just fine with him. Clark had never aspired to anything else, honestly. His schedule left him with time to join a small sports club on the weekends. He had drinking buddies and people he chatted with at the water cooler. Things were just fine.

Then, he lost his job. He’d been working for a CyberSecurity firm that got hacked, and someone had to take the fall. That someone ended up being his whole team, which stunk. But for a guy with his skill set, another job would crop up. And, sure enough, it did. He’d been living in DC for a while, so he knew some government people. One of them approached him and asked if he wanted to do Computer Security on location for the government. Clark had never really thought about living anywhere else; it could be fun. Plus it was a job, so he took it, packed up, and moved out to Grimstone.

Clark has been doing Cybersecurity in Lake Grimstone for a few years now and while he enjoys the friendships that he has made with the residents, part of him feels guilty. He feels guilty that they are in a place that they can never leave. Sure, there is Grimstone Park, the town with somewhat more freedoms, but even with the possibility of leaving Project Lake Grimstone for a few hours a month he doesn’t believe it’s enough, and what about the residents of Grimstone Point? These are all thoughts that keep him up at night and he wished there was a way he could help the residents. He tries to be optimistic and remember that they are all there to train, but he has wondered just what would be so bad if they all could leave. Of course, that is all just crazy ideas that run through his head when work is slow and he would never bring that up to anyone.

***TRIGGER WARNINGS: ABUSE***

Lucie Slater was born to her mother’s boyfriend. He was a bad man, and he wasn’t good with kids. In fact, he never wanted kids. She was young when her mother’s boyfriend, Killian, and her mother–a woman who was often oblivious at best–were married and they were who raised her. When they were away, her brother, Liam would help raise her as well. Even from a young age, Lucie knew there was something bad about her father. He gave her a bad feeling ever since she could remember. At that moment, though, she felt a presence with her that she knew would protect her. As she grew slightly older, her fears were confirmed. It was no secret what the man she was supposed to call a father was doing to her brother. She knew, though she did her best to act like she didn’t. She also knew Liam was afraid that it would happen to her, and watching her brother take that abuse so she wouldn’t have to broke her heart and scared her.

What Liam didn’t know was that she would never be in danger. There was something special about Lucie: that presence from before. It turned out, the presence was her. It was a different Lucie, from a different universe. Unlike the Lucie she was growing into, who was quiet and introspective and clumsy in the way all young girls are, this other version of herself was  warrior on her version of Earth. Lu (as Lucie called her) confided in Lucie that on her Earth, there were people with powers everywhere, and no one could stop them from doing anything they wanted. War broke out, and everyone had to learn to defend themselves. Lu wouldn’t tell Lucie whether there was another Liam or another Mom or even another Killian. All she would say was that her world was a bad place, and that Lucie’s was much nicer.

Lu appeared whenever Lucie needed her–when she had to climb the rope in gym class, and when she was scared of the noises she heard from Liam’s room at night. Then, when Liam started to get involved in bad things, Lu would appear to fight off bullies and help her practice for debate tournaments. Lu was Lucie’s best friend and protector, all wrapped up into one. When Liam was taken away, Lu comforted Lucie by telling her that where he was going was a good place, where he’d be safe. It was also a place that Lu didn’t have on her world; a place that would protect people. So when Lucie visited and realized she was likely to end up there as well, she was excited. After all, that place was the difference between her world, which was relatively safe, and the dangerous one Lu had to live in. Lu is very happy that Lucie was placed in the more structured, organized, and strict town. It’s where she thinks Lucie will thrive the most.

NAME: Naomi Patton AGE: Twenty Seven POWER: Radiation Manipulation OCCUPATION: Manager of Once Upon a Book TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY **TRIGGER WARNING: DEATH**

Naomi knew something was different about her from a young age. Everyone around her would get sick, whether they were around her for a few minutes, or a couple of days. She always waited to get sick, knowing that most sicknesses were contagious, but she never did. It led her to wonder why she was so different than everyone else, and why everyone was constantly getting sick? These questions swarmed her mind, especially once her mother was diagnosed with cancer when Naomi was only fourteen.

Being an only child, and without a father, Naomi was the one that always took care of her mother. When she was diagnosed, the doctors had said that they caught it in time, and with a small dose of radiation treatment, she’d recover. It gave Naomi hope and she stood by her mom’s side though it all. But within a couple of months, Naomi could see her mother going down hill rapidly. She questioned the doctors, angry now with the false information they kept giving her. They admitted that they couldn’t explain it, and that they didn’t know why her mother’s cancer was getting worse, and nothing they were doing was helping. It was only two months later that her mother would pass, and Naomi felt more alone than she ever had before. Instead of going with social services, Naomi grabbed what she could and she ran.

Naomi never stayed in one place for long, because of the constant sickness that seemed to follow her everywhere. She didn’t want to cause anyone any misery, or sadness, because of it. For a year, she lived on the streets, fending for herself, and it caused her to grow up quickly. She learned how to take care of herself, and how to stand up for herself when she needed to. She pushed all of the sadness out of her, and focused on surviving each day and even trying to figure out what exactly was wrong with her. But her life took another turn when authorities showed up at the abandoned house she was staying in. After they explained who they were, and where they were taking her, she went with them willingly. She wanted to figure out what was so different about her, and she wanted to get the help she needed to learn how to control it so that she couldn’t cause anyone else pain, like she had gone through.

NAME: Oliver West AGE: Twenty One POWER: Beast Morphing OCCUPATION: College Student / VR Bar TOWN: Grimstone Point

»  HISTORY

Oliver West has no memories of warm embraces, loving caresses, kind words or anything that a child would receive from their loving parents. Instead his memories are filled with unkind words, dirty looks and a lot more negative things that he would rather forget. Since birth, Oliver was placed in the foster care system. A system that is as broken as most of the spirits of the kids in it. One would think that a healthy baby boy would have been adopted in a heartbeat but that was not Oliver’s case. He grew up watching other children get adopted, or go in to foster homes and even though he was also placed in a few foster homes within weeks he was back. No matter how well he tried to behave, he just couldn’t stay in one place for too long and soon he began to believe that maybe he was the one with the problem.

When Oliver turned ten, he was put in a group home where he met Drew, a boy two years older than him who became like his older brother. Drew was the closest thing to family that Oliver had and he was thankful that he had him in his life. The two boys were inseparable, often getting in to trouble and each taking the blame so that the other wouldn’t get punished. Then what Oliver feared the most happened, Drew had to leave the group home leaving Oliver to fend for himself. As expected Oliver did not take it well, after all, Drew was his family – his brother. That’s when his power came out. He morphed in to something that scared him to his core. He was a sixteen year old guy that had just transformed in to a monster.

Two government agents showed up at the group home the next morning and without so much as an explanation they took Oliver away. He was frightened and with good reason, after all, they hadn’t told him where he was going or why they were taking him away. He figured it was because of what he had turned in to. Finally, they arrived at Lake Grimstone and everything was explained to him. They put him in Grimstone Point and honestly, he was relieved. Even though he’s still trying to find his place in a town filled with people like him, he likes that he’s able to feel normal when he’s at his own home due to the negation technology. He still had a hard time trying to figure out how to fit in but he finds himself becoming more comfortable as the time goes on. The only thing about that is that he’s fearful his comfortability will end and he’ll be ripped from the town and have to start all over again. It’s a thought that he tries not to let get in the way of his daily life but sometimes it does.

NAME: Jade Roberts AGE: Twenty Five POWER: Pyrokinesis  OCCUPATION: Up to Player TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY 

People consider Jade a bitch and she is quite okay with that. She says what is on her mind and doesn’t care if people get offended or if anyone dislikes it. However, there are a few people (very few) who she isn’t downright harsh to and those are her closest friends. If you were to think that the power you posses should match your personality, with Jade it does and she loves it. The fire manipulator embraces her bitchy side and in fact, she enjoys how people seem to get out of her way when she makes her way down the hall. Jade is very well aware of what people say about her and at times she uses that to her advantage, to her, instilling fear in people is like a complete other power that she possess.

She found out about her power at the age of 6, when she accidentally caused a fire that killed her father. Her mother has never been able to forgive her for that, despite the fact Jade was only a little girl and that the fire was a complete accident. Ever since that day Jade tried and failed to gain her mothers approval. The only person in her life that truly loved her was her grandma. Someone that Jade could confide in completely and not worry about a thing she thought. Jade confided in the older women about her power and to her surprise, she was quite understanding and even helped Jade in keeping the power hidden. However, no matter how well they tried to keep her power under-wraps, the government found her and pulled her away from the only person that loved her.

Being in Lake Grimstone has been a roller coaster ride for the blonde. On one hand she has made a few really good friends, but on the other she has gotten her heart broken one too many times. It was that heartbreak that she experienced at the hands of Lake Grimstone’s playboy what caused Jade to not want a relationship, she doesn’t see the point to them when you can’t trust the other person.There has only been one person that Jade has trusted completely and thanks to the government she no longer has her in her life, to say that Jade is bitter about that would be an understatement. To top off her resentment against the government, she was placed in the town with the strictest rules and the mandatory training schedule. Sure, the government claims that the town assignment is random, but Jade doesn’t believe that for one bit.

NAME: Zachariah Wong  AGE: Thirty Five  POWER: Disease Manipulation  OCCUPATION: Up to Player  TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY

Growing up in quite a normal household, Zachariah never thought anything of himself. He was a young boy who liked his own company, and that of his family more than the idea of making friends. His parents thought nothing of this – there was nothing wrong with a child who liked to read and play alone, they thought – and he did occasionally involve himself in games with his sisters. However, there was nothing normal about Zachariah, and that was something he and his family learned when he was just ten years old. While chicken pox spread across his school, he remained immune to the virus and when his sister got the virus, all it took was a simple touch from Zach to rid her of the contagious disease. That was only the first of many seemingly miraculous moments that happened throughout his years growing up.

It was after an incident in university that the government was alerted to the presence of Zach. Disease is something that could never be explained, both before and after the discovery of Zach’s gift, so it was always unlikely that anyone would catch on to the fact that Zach could heal and infect others. However, the sudden outbreak of Alzheimer’s in the lecture hall during a brief neurology discussion could not go unnoticed by the government. All of the good things Zach was doing would have to stop because of this one negative scenario. No longer could he visit patients in the hospital with the hope of curing them of their diseases. Zach could do nothing to help the world, not the way he wanted. The government, instead of listening to his arguments, insisted on taking him to Lake Grimstone. To which he refused. He managed to avoid it for a whole week, infecting anyone he thought to be an agent looking for him. Everything was clear: the government didn’t want to help, with his power they wanted to control him, they would have killed to find a way to utilize his gift and sell it to the world, as long as he wasn’t connected to it. At least, that’s how Zach saw it. It was the government that drove him to his current state of mind. Eventually they tracked him down and he found himself at Lake Grimstone.

Zachariah noticed that in Lake Grimstone, it would pay to have the upper hand. In an environment where individuals possessed powers that were arguably more useful or effective than his own, he needed to build a reputation and more than that, he needed people to know that he was not the kind of person that should be crossed. Soon after his arrival, he made a name for himself and though his reputation wasn’t necessarily good, it was not the worst. Zach found that finding what he wanted or needed, and people to do what he wanted and needed was easy when individuals had the right motivation. His power came in very handy for that. One wrong move, swaying from his requests or demands, and the individual in question might find themselves awfully ill – with the threat of fatal illness. People learn not to challenge someone who can torture them without even laying a finger on them – no one likes an illness. Zach never over does his demands; he is fair. He will ask for specific things or favors and he will expect one to comply. That’s the basis of the deal. Never has he intended on inflicting fatal diseases on those who do not comply; the ruthless demeanor is meant to tell others a different story, of course.

» HISTORY

***TRIGGER WARNING: Homophobia; Child Neglect/Abuse*** 

Kennedy’s life before they came to the Lake Grimstone Project is one that they do not discuss. The story is not a unique one--living a life with a secret their parents would never understand, hiding who they were for fear of what their parents would do if they found out. The difference was that Kennedy had two secrets to hide--their identity, and their power. The power, they discovered at a community pool, when they were able to make the water perform tricks like it was a water park. Almost as soon as they discovered their ability, they knew to hide it for fear of being considered a freak and taken to be studied. Little did they know, that was the least of their problems. They didn’t so much come out to their parents as they were found out, and when their parents did find out, they were kicked out of the house at age 15.

For a while, they lived with friends, or friends of friends, or really anyone they could convince to give them a roof. They lived in homeless shelters and in the lgbt center in their hometown, and managed to scrape by until they were 18, dropping out of school and trying to survive. It wasn’t until they were caught by a cop using their power to boil some water on a winter night that the government managed to track them down. By then, they had almost mastered their power, and were honestly grateful to be taken by the government. The Grimstone Project offered them a place to live, and a town where they could start their life over, so they did. They gave themself a new name--Kennedy--and built an identity around the person they’d always wanted to be. They embraced their power, literally. They settled down, moved into a home.

Now, having lived in Grimstone Point for some time, they are still somewhat grateful for what the government has provided them, but they still want more. They want to be able to return to their old town and confront their family as their new, confident self. They want more freedom to explore. They want to meet others like them. Being at Grimstone Point brought their ability to lengths they couldn’t have imagined, got them the education they missed out on, and gave them a home, but they wish that they could move on now and see what else the world has to offer, and Grimstone Point is starting to feel more like a trap than it used to.

» HISTORY

Ever since Austin could remember he has always done things for himself. It wasn’t because he didn’t have parents to do them for him because he did, it was just that they were always more preoccupied in fighting with each other than taking care of their kids. Being the oldest sibling meant that he had to take care of his little sister, at least that’s how he saw it, and he never complained. He didn’t mind taking care of her, he would help her with homework and made sure she always had something to eat, even if it was just canned soup. Whenever his parents would argue, their father would leave and their mother locked herself in the room forgetting that they existed and so Austin would have to make sure that his little sister didn’t go to be hungry.

When he was fifteen his neighbor and one of his closest friends Larissa Colbert told him that as soon as she turned sixteen she would be leaving home at first he thought she was planning on running away but she explained to him that she had a superpower one that she had known of for a while. Austin couldn’t believe it but sure enough the day she was sixteen she disappeared, there wasn’t even a goodbye note, a few weeks later her parents moved away. The night they moved away Austin got home to be greeted by an argument between his parents one like he had never heard or seen before. His father was about to hit his mom he tried to stop him but instead of standing between them, he possessed his father forcing him out of the house. For almost two years he was able to keep his power under wraps but of course, the government found a way to track him down and take him to Lake Grimstone.

Austin is a quiet guy he tends to keep to himself unless of course, he is with one of the select few that he chooses to open up to. He talks to anyone that will talk to him, but opening up is usually hard for him. Austin is just like any other young adult, he enjoys a good time and he loves to party, but because of his upbringing, he parties in a responsible manner. He saw what alcohol made people do and rather than continue the cycle, Austin has chosen to break it, he just wishes he could be home looking after his sister as he worked on breaking it. Austin resents that the government placed him in Grimstone Point consequently not giving him the opportunity to see his sister again.

NAME: Wren Rogers  AGE: Twenty Eight POWER: Intangibility  OCCUPATION: Touch of Reality - VR bar  TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY

Wren has always felt like he will never be good enough and the sad part is that his father is the one to blame for that. Of course, Wren would ever admit that his father or anyone else for that matter. His father was an all-star baseball player he was on his way to play in the majors when he met Wren’s mother and it all changed. As Wren grew up his father tried to live through him, signing him up to all the sports he could and sending him to all the sports camps that he could find around his home town, but Wren just wasn’t into them. He tried, it was just that sports weren’t for him. It was then, as he failed at every sport, that he felt like he would never be good enough for his father. Wren would never be the son that he felt his father wanted or deserved.

Even though he had always tried to get into sports, not being good at them got him bullied countless times by the school jocks. Wren would be stuffed in lockers and even though he banged and begged to be let out no one ever did let him out. It was there that his power, one he discovered when he was fourteen, came in handy. His power allowed him to pass through the back of the locker and the solid wall. Being a huge comic book buff he right away understood what was going on, but he kept it all a secret or at least he thought he had but as soon as he turned sixteen the Government was knocking at his door to take him to Lake Grimstone where he has been ever since.

Wren is definitely a very likable guy, he’s goofy and has a great personality along with a sense of humor that everyone just seems to love, no matter how hard they may try not to. Though sometimes it can be more along the lines of laughing at him, nevertheless they’re still laughing and that’s definitely a positive in Wren’s book. He loves making friends which basically means he talks to anyone and everyone that he crosses paths with–any new friend is again as far as he’s concerned.

NAME: Rhea Soto  AGE: Thirty Two POWER: Love Manipulation OCCUPATION: Counselor   TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY

What most counselors would view as inappropriate Rhea does not. She feels that because she has been in Lake Grimstone for so long and has been through what the new residents there are going through that it’s okay for her to be overly friendly with them. That friendly behavior is usually what puts her in situations that tend to always end badly for her.  There is a line that someone that works with the government should not cross and Rhea, on numerous times, has crossed it. Being in lake Grimstone most of her young adult life was difficult for her, she was taken from her home the day she turned sixteen and never even had a chance to say goodbye to anyone other than her parents. Being torn from everything she loved really affected her. She began to sink into depression, but she was able to hide it well always having a smile on her face to mask what she really felt. She constantly told her self that it was best that no one knew what she was going through, that they wouldn’t understand.

The young woman finished school in Lake Grimstone and went on to get training as a counselor which really was quite ironic considering the state that she was on when she began the training. It wasn’t until she got the job of counselor that Rhea began to show signs of getting better. While she did have the training for the position that the government offered her, she is still unsure why they gave her the job. Perhaps it was because of her power or her ability to get close to people, whatever the reason most people think that she is quite good at it. That is until she starts getting close to the people she should be helping, that was exactly what happened with Aaron Brody, they got a little too close and since Aaron didn’t want help, he got sex instead. This is a prime example of what happens when Rhea gets too involved and too inappropriate with those she’s supposed to be counseling. Their relationship came to an end and that sent her spiraling down once again. It took her years to finally recuperate from the damage that their relationship had caused.

One would think that Rhea should take her own advice but she never does, as the saying goes, it’s easier said than done. The counselor often closes herself off from people and only shows them the side of her that she wants them to see. Which is usually a bubbly happy young woman that would seem to have her life in order. Her past mistakes still come back to haunt her at times, but she does try to make the best of the situations. Being assigned to Grimstone Point seemed like a good match, the town is stricter and it’s all about following the rules, of course as she sees it, rules are meant to be broken sometimes and she does enjoy breaking them.

NAME: Sophia Middleton  AGE: Twenty Two POWER: Reflection Manipulation OCCUPATION: Full-Time Student  TOWN: Grimstone Point

» HISTORY

Sophia was raised in a devoted Christian household composed of her father– the pastor of the small town they lived in–her mother, and three older brothers. Many, including her parents, thought that it would be difficult for Sophia to be the youngest and the only girl, especially as she got older, but that was not the case at all. She looked up to her older brothers but she always knew that she was different and she was perfectly okay with that. Religion was a big part of their life as a family. Every Sunday they were in church for service and then in the classroom for Sunday school. As the years passed her beliefs and her faith grew stronger. As she got older it was a little more difficult for her because people always made fun of just how devoted she was, but having her older brothers around seemed to make the bullies think twice before picking on her. But even if her brothers had not been around, she was capable to look after herself. Sophia also never allowed the name-calling, looks, and snickers as she made her way down the hall bother her. If she was being honest, she actually felt pity for the people that teased her because unlike her they had nothing to look forward to. Sophia was not only an excellent student she was also a talented singer that used her gift to sing in the choir in church. Life was good, or as good as it could be, but then everything changed for the Middletons, more importantly for Sophia. When she turned sixteen she discovered that she was different from her family, she possessed a power. To this day she is still not sure how the government found out about her but they did and she was taken from her family but not before she got to say a proper goodbye to them. Before she left her father gave her a cross on a gold necklace and she wears every day trusting completely that it will keep her safe.

The move to Lake Grimstone has been hard on Sophia, she feels like a bigger outsider than she ever felt back in her hometown. People there seem to do as they please and have no regard for anything or anyone. As if that wasn’t bad enough she’s also getting older and doubts are beginning to arise, doubts that she is certain she wouldn’t have if she was back home with her family. It’s getting harder and harder for Sophia to stay devoted to her beliefs and she blames the government for that. Had they only left her home she wouldn’t be doubting her faith and beliefs. The young girl tries her best to keep some sort of connection to the life she had before Lake Grimstone, but it’s hard to do that in Grimstone Point where it feels like her days are planned out with training, school and community service.

NAME: Lucas Greenman AGE: Thirty One POWER: Illusion OCCUPATION: Up to Player TOWN: Grimstone Point

»  HISTORY

Lucas’ mother died in childbirth, so he spent his childhood with a father that did not believe in any conventional sense of “childhood.” As a young boy, he was taught to protect himself with varying forms of self-defense classes. In addition to this, his father was persistent on him hitting the books and developing his knowledge in everything he could have; usually subject to his own field of work. Lucas did everything his father asked in order to impress him and he did it well too, but his father would always find flaws in his achievements. When he didn’t, the reaction was almost non-existent. This persistent hard work pressured on Lucas by his father was a by-product of his reaction to Lucas’ powers. The man didn’t take it well at all, thinking that the self-defense and constant development of knowledge would perhaps make his son less of a ‘freak’.

But none of the constraints his father put on him changed the outcome. He still managed to learn everything his father asked, but he continued to learn his powers as well. After all, that power allowed him create illusions. Of course, with those demands on him, he had little time to socialize. Sure, he had his few close friends who might have dragged him out to parties every now and again, but other than that he was pretty anti-social. This left many to wonder about just whom Lucas Greenman was. People were skeptical of his fighting skills and his great knowledge. Of course, jealousy was a motivator and drove people to crazy things. Thankfully though, nothing terrible happened. That was until he went to University. Being so informed in things, Lucas excelled in University but it was his one paper that caught the eye of the Government. It was the topic of evolution and mutations and was rather power-centric. After all, it was something he knew very well. But soon enough Government agents were at his dorm and taking him to Lake Grimstone, a place Lucas has come to somewhat enjoy.

Most could consider Lucas arrogant and he probably wouldn’t correct them; his abilities in many areas are good enough to embrace that arrogance. He can fight, he’s intelligent and his ability is almost down to perfection as far as he’s concerned. He’s learned that it all comes with the price of jealousy and brushes it off. When Lucas grows very close to people, he tries to protect them as best he can, some would say that is a flaw but Lucas would consider it a strength.
