Jonathan "Johnny" Van Ronk

"A bullet in the head is worth two in the gut."

Codename:

Judicator

Age:

23

Gender:

Male

Sexuality:

Heterosexual

Relationship Status:

Single

Species:

Mutant

History:

Johnny was born in Australia originally, but quickly moved to Louisana with his parents shortly after being born. His father was Australian and his mother America, granting him dual citizenship within these countries.

Much of his life up until he discovered his powers was filled with two closely related things. Shooting and cowboy movies. His father adored the greats such as John Wayne and Clint Eastwood, and would often watch the films with Johnny whenever they could. His mother, however, was more inclined in teaching him how to fire a gun, this mix of interests resulted in the cowboy-esque persona that Johnny bases his powers around.

When his powers manifested it was a disaster. He couldn't control his speed, he kept flying into walls after the first step and it was blindingly obvious that he was a mutant. His parents, being the progressives they were, did not look down on him for his mutations, and instead sought to help him control it.

Things were going well until a local anti-mutant rally swept through the town. Someone caught Johnny using his power to get home quicker, and what ensued was the worst night of Johnny's young life. His parents struggled to keep the angry mob from getting to Johnny, which resulted in their brutal murder at the hands of an unknown gunman.

Alone and afraid, Johnny ran as fast and as far as he could. He passed through many towns along his journey, before finally encountering another mutant in Washington. The mutant helped him get to Xavier, who honed his power and managed to help him grow into the man he is today.

Appearance:

Johnny stands at 5 foot 11 and has a fit, borderline muscular physique. His hair is kept partially long, but is styled so that it falls no lower than his neck. His moustache goatee combo is rather scruffy and matches the dark brown hue of his hair and eyes. He can often be seen wearing a leather jacket, and bears a double shoulder holster on missions.

Powers:

Johnny's power is speed. Everything he does he can do faster than anyone else. Running, punching, kicking, you name it and he can do it quickly. Furthermore this power extends to his reflexes, which have been enhanced to the point where he can draw and fire a revolver as accurate as he would if he was aiming a sniper rifle. Speaking of guns, these are a staple in his powerset, as he uses them almost always when fighting villains.

Personality:
Johnny's life has made him cold and bitter to an extent. He finds it hard to trust people and mostly assumes that anyone he meets will be out of his life sooner rather than later. Once you gain his trust however, you will begin to notice the kindness and warmth that he bears towards mostly everyone who doesn't intend to do him harm. He's really a big softie wearing the skin of a rough tough cowboy.

You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
Startles your sleeping ears to hear

Gender:

Male

Sexuality:

Hetero

Relationship Status:

Single

Species:

Mutant

History:

James discovered his powers when he was around 7 years old. His family had just come back from a vacation to the beach. So of course, everyone was terrified when James suddenly disappeared, and then reappeared claiming to have "gone back to the beach". His parents, terrified for their son, urged him to hide his mutation. So James, hid his power from everyone, though he would still occasionally teleport somewhere when he got emotional. This all came to a head when at a party in his senior year of high school, James was utterly humiliated. He than teleported home, in front of his entire class. The neighborhood was far less understanding than his parents. Forced into hiding, James lived on his own for about a year, until he heard about the Institute. In his desperation, James made his way there, hoping for shelter.

Appearance:

James is 5'8", and rather slim. He has medium length, straight hair. He also has hazel eyes, which seem to glow moments before he teleports. He tends to where a t-shirt, jeans, and a light black jacket.

Powers:

James is able to instantly teleport. All he has to do is focus on the location he wants to visit, and he's there. While he his effectively unhindered by distance, James still has to focus harder the farther away the destination is. Also, while pictures of the destination help him focus, he must have an idea where the destination is relative to him. Lastly, James can bring anything or anyone he is holding with him when he teleports.

Personality:
After the terror that was James's high school years, he's become rather reserved. Preferring to blend into the background rather then be noticed, James only really opens up to the few who become close to him. Despite his seeming social detachment, James can become very passionate and driven. Still, despite how far he may be willing to go to do something, he will rarely ask for help.

Dislikes:

-Long journeys
-Being in the spotlight

@LokiLeo789 woo! Sounds like fun! XD

[Ace of flames01]

@Mr_pink don't forget the relationships tab

WHEW! FINALLY! I finished my other character!

[Mr_pink]

@Ace of flames01
How well would the characters know each other? Like has the class been going on for a while or is it a new semester sort of deal?

[Ace of flames01]

@Mr_pink I would say the start of a new semester kind of thing but with new students moving in for the last few months prior to the start of the thread, that should give enough time to at least get some first opinions and some sort of beginning of a relationship between characters
