Name: Denelli "Danny" White Age: 28 Also Known As/Aliases: N/AAppearance: Being a previous basketball player who turned away his passion just to attain a stable and high-paying job, Danny still managed to maintain his body at a decent shape. Standing at a height of 6'2", weighing about 168 lbs and having an athletic frame, it would be clear enough to comprehend that a man such as him had gone through extensive training exercises which versed the appealing figure he currently possess.
Danny has square-like face, having grey colored eyes, a thin nose and smooth cheeks. His hair is painted with a brown blonde color with hues of black appearing on the back strands of his skull. He often styles it with an unruly look, having a few of the strands curled up to an end. Danny's clothing style is what he considers as 'simple' but in reality, one would say a man such as him pays a slightly significant amount of cash to look dashing and professional-looking. When at work, Danny often wears business attires mostly varying to dark colored suits or expensive looking coats. When at home or certain occasions, he often chooses hoods and sweatshirts for the comfort of his daily lifestyle.
Personality: A typical everyday good guy is what others describe Danny on most encounters. Although a large percentage of it is a fact, there is, however, a part of him which a few people either understand well or dislike. Danny is actually a very impatient man. For the most part, he dislikes waiting for something and when that certain 'something' is what he thinks to be unworthy of his time, he would most likely be driven through silent but violent actions of impatience and frustration. He dislikes bragging about insignificant matters but if they happen to be getting in his way of concentration, the inevitable draws him away and makes him do the bragging instead.
Danny also forgets a lot of things frequently, especially when at work and when he is heavily bundled by stressful tasks. If ever things transitions from worse to worst, he might eventually end up panicking which he greatly dislikes when it actually happens. However, Danny would always try his very best to gather patience and it had been his daily task to concentrate mostly on the positive side but have awareness of negativity.
To others, Danny is mostly considered as a hero though not perfectly a savior. There wouldn't be a time when he would step up to help a distressed friend from the countless troubles they are facing. Mostly, Danny would try and comfort them whenever possible. He is also a conversationalist type of guy which gives him an alluring social outlook.
Mutant Ability: Danny has the ability to emit energy essences from his palms. It's appearance discharges a yellowish-green glow of flowing energy surges enveloping his hands. These essences from his hands, when placed on a certain body part, have the power to rejuvenate and restructure damaged cells, bone tissues or anything that is damaged,broken or deformed inside and outside a living organism. Not only in that certain field are the essences unique in utility, but they can also disintegrate any kinds of toxic substance that either had been injected or in-taken by the body.
However, the part of the ability used for certain tasks of healing or detoxification is only the utility phase whereas the energy essences emitted by his hands has an offensive capability of granting self-defense. Danny can reverse the rejuvenating presence of the energies and make them a harmful ray of heated light. The yellowish-green glow shifts into an appearance of laser-like rays on Danny's hands. Once these certain rays touch a certain object, the object of contact quickly disperses through incinerated heat. The rays can also cut through thin metal or anything which has a weaker foundation.
As unique as it would sound, there is a limit to where Danny can use his abilities. Doing so requires a significant amount of energy exertion meaning, it is similar when doing a certain task only, the amount of energy to be used is doubled. If ever Danny runs out of energy or is exhausted from doing other physical activites, he won't be able to activate his abilities' full potentials and if he activates it, the presence of the energy essences will be very weak. However, if Danny still managed to activate his abilities even at a dire state, he might pass out from severe exhaustion.
History: For a newly wed, moving on wasn't a very easy task to carry especially when the tragedy was the grave loss of the loved one. For years, Danny sought to find happiness again after loosing his wife, Mary. It was difficult to manage from the start, going through a lot of depressing wrongdoings such as excessive drinking and therapy, but his vision towards the mutant race and the determination to make a change helped him through these tough trials in life and eventually served as an aid for his 'moving on'.
After turning away his passion for basketball, Danny became a successful businessman after studying and graduating from a very high-standard university in Massachusetts. His parents, although still in favor of having him return to his sport, felt rather uplifted from the hard work Danny had demonstrated. Everything was almost at a perfect glance when he started working. He had a high-paying salary, his boss liked him often because of his innovative mind and the effort he wholeheartedly exerts and especially, his appealing figure which attracts several of his co-workers making him somewhat of a leader. But there was something which wasn't in a good compatible notion to his life as he is also a kind of person who is despised by most ordinary people, a mutant.
For years after the discovery of his true potential, Danny hid his true self away from people and especially from his own kind. Life was almost perfect for him but the true nature of him being a mutant wasn't entirely accepted by his own prospect. He hated being a mutant much as he hated the chaos caused by his own kind. He even did several attempts to get rid of his unusual ability by partially taking drugs just to see if there was ever a slight progress of a cure. Unfortunately, it just made things worse than before making Danny suffer from mild depression and eventually affected his work.
Years had passed and Danny met a beautiful woman named Mary. At first glance, they thought they were just co-workers either helping each other or working for the betterment of the company. But it was just a thought and as soon as they started hanging out with each other through dinners and parties, they eventually fell in-love in a few months of fondness. After their first official date as couples, their relationship strengthened until such time when Danny proposed to Mary at their office which shocked several of their co-workers altogether. Despite suffering from depression, Danny once again found happiness in front of his eyes and he hoped that the wedding he planned before the proposal would be successful.
And it did. It succeeded more than what he never expected. There were numerous visitors including his bosses and co-workers from the company as well as his family and a few relatives. After the wedding, they rented an apartment of their own, hoping to buy a house after they sorted out their finances for the future. However, two months after their wedding, a very tragic event followed up which changed Danny's views towards mutants but left him to be in a very dire state. They were both kidnapped by unknown people but they later revealed themselves as mutants after Danny and Mary were brought in to the kidnappers' headquarters. They demanded cash for more than a million dollars and if not, they would kill Danny's wife. The kidnappers knew what Danny was truly capable of and they gave them a choice of either joining the cause of the activists or betray his own kind by discarding their rights. Danny refused thoroughly and told the million dollar cash was impossible for his reach.
His actions alone aggravated the kidnappers and started harassing his wife. Furious, Danny had no choice but to use his mutant abilities to get themselves out from the grave situation. However, he wasn't exactly sure if he would ever show himself to his wife that he was a mutant. But he was out of choices and wouldn't afford to lose his wife just after being newly wed. Danny sprung out from the restraints, using his mutant powers and knocked several of the kidnappers unconscious. But unfortunately, Mary was killed right before he could free her from the kidnappers. His powers might actually bring her back to life but he was outnumbered and was again repressed and was knocked out, leaving him unconscious. After that, Danny witnessed the grim fate which abruptly ended his married life as he saw Mary lying in cold blood. He tried to use his healing powers to mend wounds and stop the bleeding until there wasn't enough energy to supply his ability's potential. Sadly, it was too late as Mary's life came to an end.
One of the kidnappers actually approached him on that ill-fated moment and it was surprisingly a young girl concealed in thick clothing to make her look like an adult. Danny was enraged about everything, the kidnappers, mutants and his mistake of a loving husband. He was almost close into killing the young girl but he knew through himself that such violent actions would make things much worse. He just couldn't accept the fact that his wife was gone. The girl tried to talk to him about the intentions of the kidnappers, telling it was all they could do to gather more allies in order to have power on their activism activities. Of course, Danny thought it was ridiculously absurd especially if they would take innocent lives. But the girl continued saying that it was an unexpected accident which led the kidnappers on killing Danny's wife. The young girl was also a mutant but after their small conversation, she left without letting Danny feel at ease from the loss he just suffered.
The aftermath of Mary's loss led Danny back to depression and thus, affecting his work with several absences without leave until he reached to the point where he was close at getting fired. He took drugs and started to drink heavily. It was as if he wanted to end his life immediately just after loosing his wife. After all, what was the point of everything? Moving on was incredibly difficult for him to handle and he just couldn't find anyone who could comfort him through his struggles in life even though several of his friends and co-workers tried to do so.
There was, however, another incident which changed his views on his own kind and eventually, helped him move on from his loss. Shortly after work, Danny was on the streets finding a place where he could have a good drink and eventually, drown himself into intoxication. The streets he was traversing was a dangerous side of the city where gangs and drug addicts loiter around. Coincidentally, he saw the young girl again. The girl who was affiliated from the kidnappers who killed Mary. At that moment, the girl wasn't in a very good situation as middle-aged men were surrounding her all equipped with weapons. Danny wasn't actually thinking of leaving the girl even though she was involved in his wife's murder since there was as much innocence a child could bear. He rushed towards the girl, attempting to save her. Danny didn't want to reveal his mutant powers, so he used hand-to-hand combat in order to confront the girl's attackers. Unfortunately, Danny was foolish enough to realize he was outnumbered and was beaten up. However, the girl unleashed her mutant abilities in the nick of time which led the situation in good hands. The group of young men then blazed away from the mutant and instead of having the girl saved, Danny was in the opposite position of being the one who needed the saving.
Later on, the girl confessed that she was making peace with mutants and humans, telling that there was no purpose of warfare between the two conflicting races. Danny was moved, not only by what the girl envisioned, but also of how determined his own kind is (even for a little girl) to live at peace. Ever since the incident, Danny started to be aware of the different outbreak of mutants. The news, the live broadcasts of activists and also the 'precautions' through which the government used in order to retain 'order and justice' between humans and mutants. Danny was heavily influenced by the girl and instead of seeking revenge for the death of his wife, he sought to contribute for the betterment of his own kind and also for the humans. But as determined as he was on doing so, he clearly had no idea where to start.
Views on Mutants: Danny fully supports the rights of his own kind though mostly, he is in favor of agreeing peace among mutants and humans. Unlike other mutants who has violent reactions towards racism and discrimination, Danny envisions a way which would bring both races in unity that would make the future an even better timeline for mankind. Although his own kind is the one responsible for the demise of his loved one, Danny believed that these actions are done through misunderstandings or if not, by desperate decision making from which mutants are suffering just from the ill treatment they were receiving from humans. Every actions of mutants are justified and can be forgiven as long as there is a logical reason to why it was done otherwise, justice must be served either to mutants or humans.
Other: Danny took drugs before but he ended the nasty habit of his soon after realizing it wasn't worth of his life. He still drinks but now, he does it with moderation.
