Alright, I'm almost ready with releasing this for DIVINE JUDGMENT OF THE GREAT AND POWERFUL [@nallore] now. I just need to fill in the details of where Aidan lives. Are we playing near New York, LA, Texas or what? I don't want to start so far away from the action that I have nothing to do.

Quote: "You never really know what a person is like, until you know who they are when they think no one is looking." Name: Aidan Summers Age: 15 Gender: Male Height: 5'6'' Weight: 150 Pounds Ethnicity: White Sexuality: Heterosexual Religion: Nominally Presbyterian Occupation: Student Ability: Astral Projection Aidan can project his consciousness outside of his body, like a ghost. His body remains behind while he projects, and doesn't have any awareness of anything near his actual body. While he is projecting he cannot interact with the world, and is invisible to the outside observer. He can be detected by those with supernatural vision, mindreading abilities, or expensive instruments. Personality: Aidan is withdrawn and is socially incompetent. He is judgmental, and assumes the worst of anyone he meets. Aidan uses his ability often to confirm his suspicions about people, and to avoid his own awkwardness. After Claire revealed her ability on live TV he began to use his ability to look for people like himself in a desperate hope to find someone he can talk to, and "understand" him. He is frustratingly obtuse to anyone attempting to figure out anything about himself as he is very secretive when it comes to his thoughts and feelings. Background: Aidan was born to a family in a small town without the patience or time to raise a child after a long day's work. His parents used to work at the local Steel Mill until it shut down. With no employable skills they have resorted to several minimum wage jobs in town. When they get home they are always exhausted, and watch TV while getting drunk. He was raised by his grandmother more than his actual parents in his early years, and by the time he had reached kindergarten his Grandmother passed away. His Grandmother was kind to everyone she met without exception. She unlike most people was very patient with him, and he openly yearns for the days when she was still alive. Even though he barely remembers anything from that time, he believes it to be a better time. All boys in small towns make friends through sports, and Aidan had no interest in sports. From an early age he was ostracized by his classmates. This exclusion would lead to Aidan becoming socially awkward, and would lead to more exclusion from his classmates. This pattern would continue throughout Aidan's time at school. He attempted to reach out to the school's guidance councilor, but she was no help. In small towns like these, no one grows out of the cliques of Middle School. The guidance councilor was apart of the local PTA, and was close friends with the parents of Aidan's classmates. She dismissed the bullying as typical boy roughhousing. While most children eventually find a few people who share their interests, in 3rd Grade Aidan discovered his ability. Aidan tried to tell everyone about what he could do, but this was before Claire revealed her abilities to the world. This outburst cemented Aidan into the label of a crazy freak. He was put into the "special" classes by his guidance councilor, and his parents didn't care so long as he passed that year. The Agency believed him, and injected a tracking device into him without his knowledge. Aidan began to withdraw further and further into his power, he believed no one could understand how he "flies over this shithole town". He was wrong. A year ago Claire revealed her gift to the world, and it changed Aidan's life forever. As he entered high school, his class began to take his earlier claims much more seriously. He was pulled out of the special classes. His classmates don't know what to make of Aidan's gifts, and have begun to give him a wide berth rather than harass him as much. But now he knows for sure that there are others like him, and he has began to look throughout his podunk town and beyond. [/hider]
