Due to recent complaints, I have decided to update Syphon. Obviously she is very strong, and her power may seem unfare to others. This is why I am re-placing the mental block into her head, in order to make her a little more watered-down.
Here is my second character,
Name: Caitlyn (Caity) Elizabeth Currie
Codename: Syphon
Eyecolor: Chestnut Brown
Haircolor: Brown
Age: 16
Height: 5'5''
Weight: 110lbs.
Powers: Syphon has the ability to "syphon", or channel, other mutants powers. She is a low-power telepath who can receive thoughts and skills from others by standing within a radius of 9 feet to them.
History: Syphon is the daughter of a famous mutant activist, Kevin Currie and was born and raised in Seattle Washington. Her aunt is also a mutant, and so her family was very loving when she told them about her 'situation.' Caity loved to play basketball and first used her powers to copy and match the skills of her oponents. She also used her abilities to cheat on tests and basically fool around. However once she turned 15 her powers broadened and she was soon able to channel the abilities of other mutants. She first channeled the abilities of her aunt (with the abitlity to re-shape matter) and he aunts friend (with the abiltiy to generate small scale explosions) Syphon went out of control and nearly exploded her home. Her aunt's friend had to shut her down with a small explosion and Professor X was called. Caity made her move from Seattle to the Xavier Institute.
Abilities: Her main ability can be summerazied by saying that she opens telepathic links of communication by standing close to intelligent lifeforms. However, with these links she is able to,
1. syphon other mutants powers and use them against them
2. syphon skills from other mutants, such as martial art abilities
3. syphon off thoughts from others, allowering her to read minds
4. by getting close enough to her target she can communicate telepathically
5. absorbs the memories and emotions of those she stands close to.
Personality: Syphon is fierce and passionate. She loves attention and hates secrects. She is constantly using her powers to figure things out about people, prying into minds,and is not ashamed to be a telepath. Her only drawback is her love for a good fight, which often gets her into trouble. She loves punk rock music and of course the occasional grunge (Seattle...remember). She is also extremly flirtacious. However inside she is a deep person. She stands behind everything she says and does 100% and won't take crap form anyone.
Problems: Her abiltiy to syphon abilties is no where near controllable. She can only function now thanks to a mental block put in place by Professor X. He is hoping to ween her off of it eventually, once she has more control over her abilities. For now she can do everything listed above (under abilities) but only on a smaller scale.
Relationships: After arriving at the Xavier Institute professor X introduced her to Mindwarp, another telepath who was looking for a friend. Syphon and Mindwarp are now good friends and have gotten into a few situations together thus far. His calm, methodic, noble personality differs from her passionate go-getter attitude, but the two seem to balance each other out almost perfectly.
((And for anyone wondering, syphon can be spelled siphon or syphon, but i thought that it looked cooler with a "Y"
))
