in color, and always in a ponytail.
Eyes: Psycho's eyes are a dark silvery/grey color that seems black if
he's in shadows.
Height: 5' 11"
Build: Lean and stringy, but
muscled pretty good.
Visible mutation: The visible manifestation of Psycho's mutation is the
moving black marks that adorn his body. These black marks are tattoos made from
a special secret ink recipe that reacted with his mutation. The swirling
energies of his body interact with the tattoos to make thim writhe and dance all
over his skin, although they are more agitated when he makes use of his
mutation.

on left side of his lower back.

picture an elf without pointed ears.

pair of torn-up jeans and a hard-metal concert t-shirt.

Sleepwear: He sleeps in a set of more torn up than usual jeans and
t-shirt
about twenty sizes too big.
Miscellaneous clothing: On nicer occasions, Psycho wears his only pair of not
torn up jeans and a plain white shirt.
Character
Personality: Psycho is almost the stereotypical juvenile delenquent. He has a
disdain for society and the limits of it, and so rebels violently. He tends to
drown his problems in metal and booze, and both of those end up getting him in
trouble. He maintains a hard exterior to deter those who would try to befriend
him, and when that doesn't work he generally ignores them. He has no
friends, and wouldn't know what to do with one if he found it.
Hobbies/ Interests: He loves listening to hard metal, and you can often find
him with earbuds, uncaring about the world around him.
Job or part time job and description: N/A
Fears/ phobias/ concerns: Psycho has very little fears. The only noticable
thing is his trepedation concerning women. Women just
always seem to make him
nervous, so he tries as hard as possible to remain distant. Even more distant
than he usually is.
Special talents: Psycho can paint with acrylics fairly well, and is moderately
good at gymnastics.
Morality
Good/ bad/ neutral/ other: Nuetral; Psycho is not evil, he is neutral. However,
his actions more often than not are rebellious, falling into the bad side of the
spectrum. Depending on his environment and other influencing factors, Psycho
could fall either way.
Mutations
Mutation description: Psycho is a very strong telepath. A telepath is one who
can read the minds of others. Psycho can, with a little bit of concentration,
completely hear an untrained person's surface thoughts. When he is not
concentrating on hearing a particular person's thoughts, Psycho hears
snippets of every unprotected person's thoughts, all at once. Psycho can
also, once he has penetrated
someone's mind, use his powers to talk to them
mind-to-mind. He can use this to communicate over long distances, or just for
screwing around with people.
Strengths: The ability to know what a person is thinking would give Psycho an
advantage in any diplomatic actions, or in a fight, as he could know what the
person was thinking and how to counter or avoid the next move. Also, being able
to talk to people inside their heads is useful because he can communticate over
long distances silently, and he can, over a long period of mental conversation,
often drive someone insane.
Weaknesses: When Psycho is not concentrating on a particular person's
thoughts, he hears bits and pieces of every thought around him. This is very
overwhelming, and he has an almost continual migrane. Also, some people have the
training or instinct to recognize and defend against mental intrusions. Such
mental battles leave Psycho very weak, and
he often loses. Sometimes
Psycho's surface thoughts are projected into a person's mind when he is
talking to them mind-to-mind, letting them read his mind for a little while.
Secondary mutation description: Psycho is also an accomplished telekinetic. A
telekinetic is a person who uses psychic energy to move things with their
thoughts. At this moment in time, Psycho can lift and move about 50 lbs easily,
70 lbs with some strain, and 100 lbs with much strain, within a 25-30 ft. radius
(depending on his concentration.)
Strengths: This allows Psycho to stop people who are attacking him, move
objects he can't reach or lift, and it scares the hell out of most everyone.
He can also use it to fling light objects very fast, and these can wound his
opponents.
Weaknesses: If Psycho tries to lift more than 100 lbs, he risks fainting, going
into a coma, or even dying. Also, his control is not very good, so he cannot
do
anything delicate with his telekinesis.
Fighting Style
Explanation: Psycho mainly uses his powers to fight, but when that is not
possible for whatever reason (or he just feels like it) Psycho has about ten to
twelves knives always on him in hidden spots. He is very skilled with these
knives, although he never learned to throw them.
Pros for fighting style: Using knives ensures that anyone fighting him
hand-to-hand is at a distinct advantage, and knives are much easier to hide
than, say, baseball bats, guns, or other such weapons.
Cons for fighting style: The fact that knives are very sharp means that it is
hard to truly fight someone without inflicting some sort of serious wound. If
Psycho needs to incapacitate someone without any lasting damage, he's out of
luck. Also, knives have a shorter reach than many weapons, and against a gun
he's just screwed.

History Of Your Character:
Psycho was born in a small local hospital in one of the many small cities
dotting the regions around the U.S. border. The city he was born in was
notorious for it's drug and illegal immigrant trafficing, and he got
indoctrinated into the gang of a drug lord at age seven, serving as a
transporter of the drugs to the drop site near the border. He worked for the
drug lord for three years, until he and his new partner were caught in a
stakeout by U.S.. border patrol as they were crossing the border near Tuscon,
Arizona. The border patrol took them to Tuscon, where they were scheduled for a
stint in juvie. After serving three weeks of his eighteen month sentance, Psycho
escaped from juvie during a bathroom break, and began living on the streets. He
was approached the next day by a group of drunks from
the Mexican Mafia. They
were looking for some sport, and figured that beating a little kid to death
sounded like fun. They formed a circle, and started kicking
at him. Then one of them had the bright idea of taking the kid into the gang.
However, two of the three didn't want to share the loyalty of their new
member, and a fight started. When the whole thing wound down, three had been
killed. The two who survived later said it was like an outside source was
reading the minds of the other three, and telling them mentally where they were
going to strike. So were his powers revealed. Six years later, Psycho was a
luteinent in the Mexican Mafia, having used a combination of driving the
competition insane and subtle displays of telekinesis to gain power. It was
because of that same combination that his nickname was coined. All the telepathy
in the world, however, wasn't strong enough to penetrate the strong
mental
barriers of the SWAT team waiting in ambush for a drug run. He was still a minor
at the time, by a year and three days, so he was given a choice. The first
choice was high-security juvie until eighteen,
then jail for four years, and paroll for three. The second choice was to go to
the sister school of Xavier's Mansion. This was given as an option because
Psycho had tried to read the mind of the judge at his trial. The judge was a
mild telepath himself, and after he won the mental conflict that ensued, he
figured out that Psycho was a mutant as well. While he was waiting to leave, the
Mutant Registration Act occured, and he was put into prison. The real thing, the
slammer. When it passed, things went on as planned, but many of the inmates had
to be transferred to insane aslyums. It was rather dull in jail...
Roleplay
Where did you learn about this site?: I was looking around on google for some
Avatar
rp sites, and one of them had your banner up, so I checked it out, and
liked what I saw.
Do you have any other existing characters, if so who: Nada
Sample RP: "Come, William, you wouldn't want to be late getting to the
mansion, now would you?" Mr. Gregory, or Gregorgy, as Psycho called him,
was sitting in the back seat of the police cruiser with Psycho. They were riding
to the sister school of the X-Mansion, and Psycho was none-too-thrilled.
"Actually, Gregorgy, yes I would. Why don't we take a stop at
Starubucks, or something. I'm thirsty. And it's Psycho. P-S-Y-K-O. Learn
it." Psycho was looking out the windowsill, wishing he had his Mp3 player
so he could drown out the drone of his social worker with some heavy metal. Even
Mr. Gregory's mind was boring. I hope this kid can turn around. Otherwise, I
don't know what I can do for him. My first kid and I get me a convict,
geez... Why does he smell so bad? I told him
to take a shower... This officer is
driving fast, wonder if he's following the speed limit? Boooring.
"It's spelled P-S-Y-C-H-O, William, and I'm going to call you by
your given name."
Psycho sighed and looked out the window. He would say some disturbing thoughts
(mentally) to Mr. Gregory and watch him sweat for a while, just to pass the
time, but he had already done it three times, and any more would just be
redundant. "Whatever." Mr. Gregory sighed, and said "How about
this, William. If I give you your Mp3 player back, will you call yourself by
your given name?" Psycho sat up quickly, and nodded. Mr. Gregory pulled it
out of his pocket and handed it to Psycho, who promptly plugged in and pounded
away...
