When she was only 11 Sydney happened to pick up a school friend’s coat by accident and was stunned by finding herself reliving an abusive beating her friend had undergone just that morning before school. She screamed for her friend’s father to stop beating her but found out she couldn’t be heard or seen and was just about to try anything she could to stop the man when she was shocked out of her fallback (retrocog) as she’s come to call them when her teacher shouted at her asking her name loudly. Unable to explain to the school what she saw Sydney was sent to see the Board Psychologist and subjected to all sorts of screening and Diagnosed as a Schizophrenic and told that she was seeing things that weren’t there. Put on meds that made her sluggish Syd looked to be damaged and had to attend a special school with other children like herself only they weren’t which she discovered after only three months and wished she never had. It was while attending the special school that Sydney’s power bored through the medicinal haze showing her the life her fellow students lead when not at the school and she was horrified to see the things they suffered at the hands of the people that said they cared for them but was afraid to tell anyone what she was really seeing for fear of becoming institutionalized. Only twelve years old there was little she could do that wouldn’t affect her in a negative way if she was found out so she put her abilities to use secretly gathering information about the abuse and printing the crimes in detail and sending it in a note to the abusers which actually put a dent into their activities and just to make sure that id did stop she began sending the Children's services copies. Her school blew up in scandal when the RCMP dug deeper encouraged by the data they held and discovered a pattern of abuse in the staff along with coverups. It was this scandal that caused her parents to move to California and it was there that Syd tired of how icky the meds made her feel and the classes designed more as daycare than school. She gave her approach a great deal of thought and came up with a plan that was entertaining to her parents; she did an object read on their car keys debit and credit cards and gave them an on the spot detailed description of what they had done that day. Naturally they thought it some sort of trick and her a clever girl but they also now had a bit of doubt and tried to prove it wasn’t possible but they quickly came around happy that she wasn’t a Schizo and then they felt guilty when the realized that they had allowed doctors to dope her up. It seemed as if everything was coming up roses as Syd discovered she held other talents such as the ability to understand whatever was said around her no matter what the language and grew close once more with her mom and dad. It was the first time her cruel and capricious talent with probability revealed itself while visiting they were visiting Las Vegas. Her talent saved her by having her accused of theft a crime that never happened and tossed into a holding cell, a holding cell that protected her from a raid by a gang who boldly but foolishly tried to spring their boss only to be felled by the cops when they stormed the jail. Her parents who had been trying to talk to the police were among the 23 dead but not the 65 wounded so she was alone. The events in her life exposed her potential as a Mutant and brought her to the attention of New Horizon which came and took her into custody saying they would now act as her guardian. Taken to the Tower it was soon discovered that Sydney was one of the strangest types. They at first thought they would train her in her power’s use but found that they were an active effect that soon grew out of her control. Sydney soon was lost in the past and unable to interact with anyone in real time, her language ability jumbling up her speech pattern. Many thought her a loss till a year later she snapped out of it her power now almost completely under her control. (Sydney can sometimes fallback if she makes physical contact with objects and people but luckily it is usually over in 10 to 30 minutes) Her present duties involve her being used as an investigator.
