Codeword: Pirates
Full Name: Dai Siôn Evans
Nicknames: None
Codename: Chaos
Age: 17
DoB: 3rd October 1989
Origins: Devil’s Bridge, Ceredigion, Wales, U.K.
Orientation: Homosexual
Blood Type: AB negative
Hair: Dark Brown
Eyes: Blue
Height: 5’ 10”
Weight: 153 lbs
Physical Effects of Mutation?: None
Personality: Sarcastic and cynical, he is fond of jokes, preferably ones at the expense of others. Calm and collected most of the time, he does have a tendency to fly off the handle over the smallest of things, although these outbursts are almost never ones of genuine anger, as it takes a lot to get him angry.
Chaos is a very self-reliant mutant, preferring to work alone instead of with a team, although he will join up with others to accomplish things that he could not do alone. Despite this, he is very social, enjoying interacting with others, and very much a part of the crowd. He also does not care what other people may think of him, preferring to be open about his ideas (and, in particular, his sexuality).
Chaos is, however, rather prone to mental breakdowns, a result of his traumatic childhood. He can break down for seemingly trivial reasons, such as at the merest mention of his sister, or car crashes. But, taking into account his past experiences, these are all perfectly logical.

Clothing Style: Mostly black clothing; tight balck t-shirts, red and black loose-fitting shirts. Black jeans and black leather boots.
::Battle Uniform::
Colour: Black
Style: A skin-tight jumpsuit.
Patterns/Markings: Silver eight-pointed star on the back of his jumpsuit.
Boots and/or Gloves?: Fingerless black gloves. He also wears large black boots.
Relations:Father: Iwan Williams (deceased), Mother: Siân Williams (deceased), Sister: Lowri Rhian Evans, a.k.a. Chimera (current location: unknown).
Powers: Reality Warping - He has the ability to reshape matter and energy, allowing him to form solid projections of either his, or other’s innermost thoughts , desires, and fears. It also allows him to form more mundane objects from energy or matter. More than this, it could potentially allow him to bend or change time, space, and the laws of physics, although he refuses to do such things, as he fears his powers, and, in particular, the damage they could potentially do to others.
Weaknesses: Although he has conscious control over his powers, he does, on occasion, subconsciously trigger them, particularly when he is having a particularly vivid dream/daydream, for example, a particularly violent nightmare, when he will subconsciously make his dreams a reality.
Quite weak physically, as he relies more on his mutation to avoid physical combat. He is also emotionally fragile, and will often break-down for a seemingly trivial reason.
His powers are draining to use, emotionally, mentally, and physically. He will often collapse or pass out when using them for prolonged periods of time, or when attempting an extreme use of his power, such as bending time and space, or altering the laws of physics. He fears some of the more extreme powers he possesses, and so never uses them to reshape the fabric of the universe, or to alter time. It is perhaps this fear that stops him from achieving his full potential as a mutant, preferring to limit himself to matter and energy conversion, and even then only on a small scale.
Affiliation: Independent
Skills: He is a skilled pianist and violinist, having practised with the instruments since he was five. He also sings in a very clear tenor voice. He is competent with the throwing-star, but not 100% accurate.
Interests: He enjoys music, both performing and listening to it. Reading fantasy novels is also a somewhat all-consuming passion of his, but he also enjoys action/adventure books. He likes to play Rugby and Tennis, although his enthusiasm has been curbed somewhat, since he learnt that he was subconsciously using his powers to help him win.
Bio/History: He was born in Devil’s Bridge in Wales in 1989, along with his twin sister, Lowri Rhian Evans. His parents were very loving, and always treated both him and his sister well. Unfortunately, when he was four years old, his parents were killed when their car plummeted into the Rheidol river. With no relatives to look after them, Dai and Lowri were placed in a local orphanage, run by the Catholic Church. The tragedy had served to bring Dai and Lowri closer than they had been before, becoming inseparable, but with Lowri taking the role as a ‘dominant’ twin, making the decisions. Dai was happy to go along with whatever she suggested, however, and this often got him into trouble.
Being raised in a Catholic Institution, Dai and Lowri were, naturally, brought up in the Catholic faith. It was when Dai became a choir boy at the local church, that the trouble began. When he was eleven, the local priest, one Father Joshua Davies, began to take a great interest in the boy, and, eventually, sexually molested him, culminating in full-blown rape. This scarred Dai emotionally and mentally, leading the once care-free boy to become more introverted and withdrawn, a shell of his former self. Perhaps things might have gotten better, had Lowri been kept in the orphanage, but, three days after their twelfth birthday, she was adopted by a couple from England. In Dai’s already fragile mind-set, this seemed to him to be a betrayal on Lowri’s part, although, in reality, she had very little part in the decision, and did not want to leave. He became more resentful of the world, and, due to the continued abuse by Father Davies, he became disillusioned with the idea of mankind possessing any compassion or ‘humanity’.
It was on the eve of his fourteenth birthday, that his powers manifested. No longer being able to take the abuse, he attempted to kill himself by jumping off the top of the Devil’s Bridge, into the rushing torrent of water below. His powers manifested just as he leapt off the bridge, causing a distortion in the laws of physics, by which he hung, motionless, in the air. To the onlookers of the community, in particular the other orphans, this was proof that Dai was a ‘demon’. When he managed to figure out how to move himself onto the bridge, he was met by the sight of Father Davies. Upon hearing the priest preaching about how Dai was the ‘spawn of Satan’, he finally lost control. No longer caring about even the lives of others, he used his powers to reach out and call forth a number of Father Davies’ darkest fears, although how he knew he could do this, he does not recall. The horrors that were unleashed were, naturally, in the form of a multitude of ‘demons’, which the priest feared due to his pederasty. The constructs descended upon the priest and tore him to shreds. Dai, overcome by the horror of what he had just done, destroyed the illusions, and fled the village.
He wandered in the Cambrian mountains for several months, stealing from farmsteads and villages to survive. During this time, he learnt how to use his powers, testing their limits. When he discovered that he could bend time to some extent, he decided to attempt to go back in time, and prevent his parents’ death. Managing to alter time enough that he travelled back several years to when his parents had died. He attempted to contact them, to warn them about their deaths, but failed. In an act of desperation, he went to the place where they had crashed, in an attempt to prevent the accident from happening. As he watched their car come towards him, he made a rather hasty decision, manufacturing a large monster in the middle of the road, to hopefully frighten them into turning around. In a cruel twist of fate, his parents, did indeed see the construct. Being terrified, his mother, who was driving at the time, swerved to avoid the construct, and their car broke through a barrier, plunging into the river.
Dai was, understandably, horrified and grief-stricken by the knowledge that his interfering with time had caused his own parents’ death. Banishing the monster, he thrust himself back to his original time, before breaking down and swearing never to use his powers ever again. He made his way to London, and lived on the streets for three years, stealing and begging to get by. Gradually, he began to regain his confidence, and started using his power, although not anything that could alter the laws of Physics or time. Eventually, Dai heard about the ‘X-men’, and decided to seek them out, to see if they could help him to learn to control his tendency to project his nightmares in solid form. He used his power to help him steal a credit card and a passport, and got a flight to an airport just outside Bayville.
*Example Post: (300 words minimum, please, just to let us get a feel on how you write)
It was about midnight when Chaos got back to his room. Closing the door softly as not to wake any of the Brotherhood, he unceremoniously slumped onto his bed, stretching himself out on the mattress. He sighed to himself, rubbing at his bloodshot eyes with his hands. Tonight had been very close. He had come closer to using the full extent of his powers than he had since he was fourteen. But when the guy in the bar had recognised him as being a member of the Brotherhood, and, hence, a mutant, and had insulted his parents, Chaos had almost lashed out at him with the full force of his mutation. Just thinking about the things the man had said brought tears to his eyes, as a surge of grief and guild flooded his body, although, peculiarly, this time, it was followed by a burning sensation of anger and hatred. He jumped up, glaring around the dark room, his nostrils flared and his face white, looking for something, anything, to destroy, to hurt.
A picture of himself and his sister when they were three caught his eye. He felt another swell of hostility bubble up inside him.
‘It was her fault!’ he raged silently. ‘She abandoned me! She left me at the hands of those…monsters! If she had still been there, none of this would have happened!’
Dai snarled, his fists clenching at his sides in an impotent rage. Then he closed his eyes, his face contorting into a fierce scowl.
“TRAITOR!” He screamed, thrusting out his hands towards the picture. The frame glowed white hot, and the ink started to melt. The paper on which the picture was printed began to distort, twisting and crumpling, until it exploded into nothingness, an intense light accompanying its’ conversion from matter into energy.
By the time the light had faded from Chaos’ eyes, he felt empty and numb. He dropped to the floor, staring at the place where the photograph had been. Tears once again welled up in his eyes, and he let out a howl, a howl of loss and despair.
