Personality: JK is a very reserved and shy man. He may seem like the dark, mysterious type at first glance, but once you really get to know him, you'll find that this Mutant is very trustworthy and very good, even if he has no idea of the dark past he’s been through. When he’s on business, or has duties to do, that's all he'll focus on. He won't care weather you're a Human or Mutant, friend or enemy. James is very protective of his friends too, and he'll do anything to keep them from danger, however, he doesn't make friends too easily. Plus, he may seem like an obnoxious player, but truthfully, he doesn't really take much interest in girls like most men his age do. He doesn't know this, but he never had a girlfriend in his entire life. All and all, he's more the kind of guy who'll end up falling in love with a friend he has known for a while, but never imagined himself having a relationship with. He only remembers brief, useless parts of his past, but can't make anything out of them..

Mutation
Mutation Description: JK can decrease other people's senses (Sight, Hearing, Touch, Taste, and Smell) to enhance his own. Normally, after three full hours, the victim will get his or her senses back to normal. His senses however, weather he chose to enhance the entire 5, or just one in particular, will decrease to normal again after 1 hour only. The only way it could take more time for either him or the victim, is if he drains the senses completely. Therefore, in these extreme circumstances, it would take from 12 to 24 hours, depending on how strong of a healer or Telepath this victim is.
Strengths: Strong emotions will enhanced the capacity of senses JK can take from his victims, but when those are bad emotions it can also make him lose control of his own senses (They will be so strong, it’ll actually cause him pain), and mind. Before, he used to drain people's senses when he felt strong emotions and even lost control of himself, but nowadays he has practiced hard and can avoid those terrible accidents. Plus, he automatically takes a bit of everyone's senses once his mind tells him he's getting to a Human's level, so he usually has the sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell about 20-30% better then Humans all of the time. When he does that, he cannot stop himself, even if it's never enough for someone to actually notice. The less people around, the more he's mind will tell him to take, so if there's only one person in a 1-2 mile radius, that person may notice a slight change.
Weaknesses: Telepathic Shields (90% chance of shielding his abilities) and sometimes even Telepaths (10-70%), can avoid his abilities, but with a lot of concentration, he can get through and decrease their senses to a minimum still. This will tire him a lot. However, he has absolutely no problem getting to Humans and non-telepathic Mutants, and the stronger his emotions are, the more easily he can drain someone's senses. Plus, when he has extremely strong negative (Anger, Sadness...) emotions, he can lose control of his powers and his mind, and do terrible things, though only under the influence of his incredibly increased senses.
Secondary Mutation Description: None
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Fighting Style: JK usually has weapons on his side, but he doesn’t have an actual Fighting Style, surprising his opponents every time. He also tends to decrease someone's sight or Hearing, so they have slower reflexes, but he never usually takes away more then 20-30% from what they had. Plus, it can really disorient someone when they lose their sense of touch, but he doesn't usually use it, as it also makes them resistant to Pain.

History of Your Character:
James Kyte, A.K.A Sensor, was born to a FBI Agent and his wife, a Stay-at-home mom. They were grateful and very proud to have a new son, but they sure didn't know exactly how that would change with the years. Kyte also had older twin brothers, who were 6 years older then he was. All was well for the first years of his life. He was quieter and more obedient then the average kids his age, but that didn't raise any questions. When he started school however, things changed for the worst.
Being surrounded with 20 kids everyday changed him, he was way to shy and nervous all the time, but what others didn’t realize was that he was taking a bit of everyone’s senses around the clock, making his strong, and this scared him more then the number of people he had to be around of all the time at school. He didn't have friends, he didn't want any. He questioned his mother one night, asking her 'why do I see and hear better mommy?’ Surely enough, her mother laughed, thinking he was just joking around. JK didn't think much about it for a while, until one day, his abilities took on a dangerous turn.
One stormy evening, his family got attacked by a group of killers. Those men's leader had been arrested by Mr. Kyte a few months previously, and now they were coming for their revenge. They were able to kill everyone in the family apart from Kyte, and he actually saved himself using his powers. He was so full of anger when he saw his parents dead, that he absorbed all of the killers' senses, making him grow too powerful for his own good. He was in terrible pain, and wanted to do terrible things to those men. He didn't know why though.
JK's senses were so enhanced after the attack; that he could actually see the dust in the air, hear the cars coming from the Freeway miles and miles away. He could feel the bumps on a flat wall as if it was sandpaper. After a few hours he was back to normal, but his life had taken on a scary turn. An orphanage took him in, not knowing the cause of the killing and why he'd been the only one to survive (The men had blindingly fled), but oddly enough, they never did catch the Murderers. He tried telling them, but they didn’t believe him. After all, how could a 5 year-old save himself by draining the evil men's sight, touch, hearing, smell and taste?
As the years fallowed, accidents like this kept happening every time his temper got the best of him, but no one saw how much he was suffering inside. Every time he'd lose control, the pain got even more intense. Around the age of 7, he grew a little dangerous, the pain never seemed to ease up, and he kept hurting people. Little by little, he became very aggressive, and even when his abilities weren’t taking over, he kept hurting people. He never got adopted either, not when he was so restless, so shy, so…dark.
Finally, he decided to take action upon his abilities, knowing too well that what he could do was far from normal. He started training himself, trying to figure out how his abilities worked and how to stop the terrible loss of control he had whenever someone angered him. With long years of practicing, being kept up at night because of the nightmares, he grew strong, with a lot of self-control.
The 10 year-old was now mature beyond his years. With his abilities and the way he could control them without problems, and the way he felt so alone all of the time, it was no shocker he was the smartest kid in the Orphanage. He had no emotions towards anyone in the place, and was so anxious to one day, finally get out of here. He wanted to do some good in the world, and prove to everyone that were scared of him, that he wasn't the scary one, he also wanted to convince himself about that.
His life finally changed for what he thought, was the better. On his 13th birthday, a man who’d been around the Orphanage a lot, examining him from afar, adopted him. He didn’t know this man was actually a Scientist, and when he was brought to a lab in Japan, he didn’t really see any harm. It was a few weeks later though, that he realized that something was wrong about this. He had been treated like a king, but after over hearing a conversation between a few women working for this man, he now knew he was going to be used as a weapon.
For four long years, that’s how long he accepted the fact that he was being threatened, that if he didn’t obey these men, he’d be killed. He went through tests, being experimented on. He was always angry, always depressed. Always in pain, both physically and mentally. He injured many helpless Humans, just like he’d been ordered to do. So many lives had been destroyed because of him. He wanted this to end, he actually missed the orphanage. At least there, he wasn’t in a dark cell whenever he wasn’t needed for testing and scary missions.
Around the age of 18, he escaped the torture, destroying the entire Lab when he allowed himself to lose control of himself, something that had never happened after he’d started training himself a long time ago. He also killed all but one of the scientists, who later caught up with him back in the States, and erased all of his memories. Kyte was in a coma for exactly one year afterwards, and when he woke up, at the age of 20, he remembered nothing about himself. All he had was a scar on his left hand to remind him of his Mutant abilities.
Three years past by and JK traveled around the States, trying to find out more about his family, and his life. He came out empty though, and at 23 (just a few short weeks before his 24th birthday), returned to New York, where he'd woken up a few years back. His memory hadn't gotten better, even after the three years, but he has gained enough knowledge and experience to know exactly how to function now. He doesn't think it's necessary to have his memories to live a normal life, and he hopes to get on with the future.
