Name: James Hunter Age: 16 Appearance: [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/f6/0e/8a/f60e8a78c12fd9a3e5acceb6f4269786.jpg[/img] Bio: James's life growing up can only be described as absolute shit, up until a few years ago. Upon discovering his ability, his parents, who both had worked for some shady organization, had him brought in for "testing"(well we know who the parent of the year award ISN'T going to!). Of course, when everyone around him started getting angry that they weren't getting the results they wanted, that's when the nightmares started due to all the negative emotions. The anger and fear around him caused his mindscape to slowly twist and warp from the paradise it once was to reflect his view on the world, which, in his opinion, is a dark and horrible place, thanks to what he went through. It wasn't until sometime after his 12th birthday when the facility he was being tested on inside of was discovered by the government and, once everyone there was taken into custody, he was brought to the X-Men for training due to the fact they were just about the only ones able to help him get some semblance of control due to certain particularly powerful psychics. Though he was very well educated while he was inside the facility all those years, he still had no contact with anyone outside before being freed. He ended up being sent to the school to help him try to socialize with more people his age, now that he had at least enough control that his mindscape wasn't affecting the area around him all the time, and even Professor X himself had noted that he did not want to be inside James's mind any deeper than just surface thoughts. Ability: Mindscape Projection - It is actually a very unique, hard-to-control power. James's ability is psychic in nature, but rather than reading minds, he has an inner world that he has control over, though it is also heavily influenced by his emotions, and too much stress or negative emotions can cause it to become unstable and start to warp and change depending on the emotion and how intense it is. The largest problem with it though is that due to the fact that James has constant nightmares and is very easily stressed out, his mindscape is a twisted, nightmarish parallel of the real world. When he gets past a certain point of stress, little pieces of the mindscape will "escape into the real world, causing havoc, completely out of his control, or others can be "pulled" into the mindscape, and will be seeing it and able to interact with it, when at the same time they're also in the real world so everyone else will think the ones seeing the mindscape are hallucinating. Due to how hard to control his power is, sometimes James will see parts of his mindscape mingling with the real world, causing him to become stressed out and make everyone else see it too.(for those of you who know the game F.E.A.R., I got the idea from seeing what Alma could do before you release her. When she just makes you see stuff. Stuff that can hurt you, but still just seeing stuff) Emotion Sensing - James is sensitive to the emotions of those around him, able to sense what everyone is feeling as he passes them, though he senses negative emotions more intensely, which in turn makes his other ability even harder to control due to the stress of feeling others' negative emotions on top of his own. Child of a villan or a hero: Neither this good? :P
