Affiliation: Independent, hasn't come met Xavier yet.

Interests: Loves to read technical manuals and coming across new technology. His powers, he doesn't know how they work exactly.
Bio/History: Born into a typical middle class family in Dublin, Ireland. His father worked for automobile factory and his mother was a seemstress for a clothing company. He is the oldest of 3 children. His brother, the youngest was taken by a group of armed men in the middle of the night and all search parties never found him. At the age of 6, he got his first computer and soon after hacked the royal military of England's database. After his father lost his job, he began to drink heavily. One night his father got into a drunken bar fight and was killed.
After his father's death and at the age of about 13, Zam's mother was diagnosed with brain cancer and given a year to live. His sister gave up any chance of a career to take care of their mother. About 2 years after his mother's diagnosis, his powers emerged in a fight with a schoolmate, nearly killing the child. After changing schools and learning how to control his powers, he graduated and eventually got a Ph.D. in computer science. He now works for a technology developer as a reverse engineer, which means he takes apart competitor technology and puts it back together to understand it and keep the market competitive.
Example Post:
Zam was walking down the halls of his department, heading to his office, nodding to his co-workers as he passed their offices. Once reaching his office, Zam logged on to his computer and checked his e-mails. Among the e-mails was one from his boss about a new project he was starting in about a month. They had just discovered that their biggest competitor was developing a teleportation device and an inside source had gotten hold of a prototype of the device. The project was estimated to take several months to reverse engineer.
Zam sent a reply halving the timeframe and saying he was looking forward to working on the project. After sending the e-mails, Zam sat back in his chair and was hovering his pen in midair then launching it up into the ceiling making it stick into the foam tile above him.
Suddenly, he heard the chime from his computer, signifying that he had received another e-mail. Going back into his e-mail account, think it was a response from his boss, he saw that in fact it was from a man named Professor Charles Xavier. The e-mail read as such:
"Hello Mr. Loterus,
My name is Charles Xavier. I have recently become aware of your special gifts and would like to meet with you. I run a school for gifted youngsters and have a proposition for you. If your interested, please meet me at the airport's duty-free cafe at 11:00 am your time to decision your future in person.
Thank you for your time,
Professor Charles Xavier
Headmaster, Xavier's Insititute for Higher Learning"
After reading the e-mail several times, Zam wondered, "Special gift? How the hell does he know about anything like that. I haven't told anyone about my abilities!"
