Simon Tam | Touchstone

[om_touchstone]

Name: Simon Tam

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): MS2 (second year of medical school at Yale University)

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Junior Faculty at Xavier's, but also shares an apartment in New York City with Jean-Paul.

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Fencing

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):

Simon and River are going to have a little plot soon where Simon is shaken and River learns that she knows more than she thought. Other than that, he's just settling in to the rhythm of balancing med school and his other responsibilities. There's a lot of commuting involved, and he's starting to become addicted to podcasts and books on tape. I'm always happy to take logs with him, however!

Laura Kinney | Talon

[om_talon]

Name: Laura Kinney

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): N/A

Living Accommodations (graduated students): She will be constantly traveling, so the best way to reach her is via phone.

Favorite Hobby/Sport: She...is actually starting to enjoy art, particularly sculpture. This may develop more while she is gone.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):

Laura will be going to auxiliary, so will only be available for plots after May. She will be traveling through Canada at first, then to other parts of the world, familiarizing herself with the world and other people. I may bring her out of auxiliary later, but for now, she's taking a break.

Damon Salvatore | Incubus

[om_incubus]

Name: Damon Salvatore

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): N/A

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Damon currently lives above The Dusty Bookshelf in Salem Center, but will be moving to New York City shortly.

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Shock and awe, Damon really enjoys reading. And terrorizing people, if that could be considered a sport.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):

Lots of changes for Damon in the future! X-Factor will be undergoing changes, and Damon will be moving to the city to open a bar (called Evolution) that's friendly to mutants; especially the graduated students from Xavier's - a kind of meeting place away from campus. If anyone would like to talk to him about these changes, or his broken state of mind, I'm open to logs!

Re: Damon Salvatore | Incubus

[om_thoth]

Expect that Alisha will handwavily frequent the bar, complete with a decent fake ID should anyone try to card her. (Cue laughter.)

Kitty Pryde | Shadowcat

[om_shadowcat]

Name: Kitty Pryde

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Freshman at MIT!

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Junior Faculty at Xavier's, but she also has an apartment in the Stark Building, and a dorm room in Boston. So many rooms! The dorm room will be mostly empty - just a place for her to crash after tests and things.

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Dance! But martial arts is becoming a second favorite.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):

Kitty is off to college - although she'll still be at Xavier's most of the time. She'll be helping to TA math classes and is still on JVX. Her interning at SI will cut back considerably because of all of this, but it's understandable. In the meantime, she's trying to come to terms with whether she wants to be a vigilante like Peter, or if she wants to turn her talents to engineering or teaching. Real life philosophy, right here.

Clint Barton | Hawkeye

[om_hawkeye]

Name: Clint Barton

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Freshman (he's finally catching up. Sort of.)

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Living at the school, but crashing at the Stark Building on the weekends to hang out with his puppy. He may soon have an apartment there.

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Archery. Duh.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):

Clint is finishing up his preliminary pilot training - to get his license. He'll then be starting more sophisticated training with different types of aircraft. He's also going to be doing some vigilante stuff, just to keep some of his friends safe, and may join in on some Avengering. He may be trying to keep his face out of newspapers and away from any cops for the next long while due to that incident in Times Square, but at least Trickshot seems to be leaving him alone for now.

Illyana Rasputin | Magik

[om_magik]

Name:Illyana Rasputin

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Much to her surprise - Junior!

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Living at the school

Favorite Hobby/Sport:Dancing, though she's getting fond of fencing as well.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
Illyana may be paying a visit to Russia this summer (really not sure yet). Otherwise, just playing minion for Harry, working at Empire, hanging out, and coming to grips with the idea that just because people graduate doesn't mean they "leave".

Doug Ramsey | Cypher

[om_cypher]

Name: Doug Ramsey

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Senior

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Living at the school

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Hacking

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
I'd like Doug to get to the bottom of WHY he freezes up when thrown into combat situations, and start working through it. Otherwise...he's going to keep being a workaholic computer geek. If anyone wants an intern computer programmer (or something he can put on college apps), please let me know!

Luornu Durgo | Triptych

[om_triptych]

Name: Lu Durgo

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Senior

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Living at the school

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Martial arts/softball/art

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
Lu will be going home to San Diego for the summer to intern with Brande Industries. She'll be available for logs if wanted/needed!

Quentin Quire | Omega

[om_omega]

Name:Quentin Quire

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Freshman at ESU

Living Accommodations (graduated students):Living at the school

Favorite Hobby/Sport:Painting t-shirts. Yes, he insists this is a hobby.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
Quentin will be starting college in fall and commuting to ESU. I have a plot idea for the near future, but I need to run it past mods first.

Toby Daye | Changeling

[om_changeling]

Name: Toby Daye

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Sophomore

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Living at the School

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Reading, with martial arts a close second

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
Toby's still adjusting to the school and forming attachments (though she'd deny the latter, because hey, she doesn't get attached). She's going to spend the summer finishing up the classes she started this Spring, training with Scott when he's available (and maybe Abby, if she's interested/has time?), and grudgingly working on getting more of a handle on her powers. Which are still gross. Volunteers to have their blood sampled are welcome!

Re: Toby Daye | Changeling

[om_brand]

Abby is always happy for an excuse to hit things.

Steve Rogers | Patriot

[om_patriot]

Name: Steve Rogers

Living Accommodations: Moving into the brownstone, and he doesn't know this yet, but he's going to be moving into Tony's apartment.

Favorite Hobby/Sport:
Hobby: Art! He will be going to FIT for illustration in the coming year.
Sport: Boxing

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
-Graduation! (he is READY TO GO. As in, load up the car before hand, leave ten minutes after graduation ceremony ready. Sorry Xavier's, he loves you, but he misses NYC.)
-Art school! (Crying over art assignments at 3 AM forever)
-Tony's birthday
-Steve's birthday
(+ a little bit of angst bc he gets half of the settlement from his mother's death and is not v happy about it.)
(+ getting his legal gender changed to male! HE'S EXCITED, OKAY?)
-Getting arrested at a baseball game with Pietro!
-Going to an 'adult' store, with Pietro, for Reasons, and it ending up on Twitter. No angst, just hilarity.
-Vigilante-ing!
-Getting recruited from ROTC by SHIELD!
-Bad things happening while working for SHIELD.
(Avengers people- I thought this could maybe be the thing that solidifies the Avengers, if people want, but also feel a little like a tool for being like LET'S MAKE IT ABOUT ME. So. If y'all are game we can do that, if not, that's cool too. I'm easy.)

This will be spread out over the rest of the year, so I'm open for other things too! It's not as much as it seems.

Re: Steve Rogers | Patriot

[om_clarius]

I feel like Steve and Steve should meet each other just because. (Although Daniel also shares your love of NYC, Steve. He misses being able to go where he wants on his own timetable.)

Carlos | Scientia

[om_scientia]

Name: Carlos Solano-Avila

Grade Level for the Coming Year: Junior

Favorite Hobby/Sport:
Hobby: Science.
Sport: They do run for their health, but they don't enjoy it.

Anything you'd like to do with them:

I don't actually have much! Something planned with Felix and eventually rooming with Cecil, but other than that, just nerding over everyone's powers. If someone wants them, let me know!

Re: Carlos | Scientia

[om_velikaia]

Shall Carlos and Caius meet?

John | Daken

[om_daken]

Name: Akihiro John Howlett

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Sophomore

Favorite Hobby/Sport: John's actually taken up wood carving, particularly by using his claws. It's a bit strange and it all started with some little gifts he'd made for people close to him.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up): Currently, John's stuck in plot limbo. Otherwise, he's available for anything X-Factor related, but he might be getting auxed out or dropped depending on certain factors very soon. So we'll see.

Santo | Rockslide

[om_rockslide]

Name: Santo Vaccarro

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Actually, just realized he's going to be a Senior. Holy crap!

Favorite Hobby/Sport: ALL THE SPORTS. But no really, Santo wants to start a wrestling team/league COME ON GUYS!

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up): Honestly, I'd really love an opportunity to blow Santo up during a JVX mission or a training accident, so that he can demonstrate his ability to make himself a new body. Otherwise, just him being a bro with people would be awesome.

Nick | Wolf Cub

[om_wolfcub]

Name: Nicholas Gleason

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Sophomore

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Nick still really enjoys video games, but after his trial, he's kind of growing out of them. He's learning to play guitar, though!

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up): Honestly, Nick's quest of self-discovery and what he wants from his life now are vastly different than they were before his trial. He sort of had an awakening, I guess. That being said, he definitely wants to work toward getting into JVX, and eventually into LXQ so that he can give back to the mutant community, since he thinks he'll likely never have a chance at a "normal" job, due to his looks.

Teon | Primal

[om_primal]

Name: Teon Macik

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): The Headmasters were likely a bit confused about where to place him, but given his age and the fact that he's foreign (and a bit tough to motivate), he'll be starting at sophomore level.

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Lounging in the sun, climbing trees, meeting new people... Teon has lots of favorite things. It's hard to nail down just one!

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up): Honestly? Anything and everything. Teon has a knack for getting to places he's not supposed to be, especially if he wants to go there. He won't be overly invasive or anything (except maybe into some science labs if he smells something neat) but otherwise, yeah. Up for anything, really.

Felix Harrowgate | Ghost

[om_ghost]

Name: Felix Harrowgate

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Senior!

Favorite Hobby/Sport:
Reading books! In the last three years, Felix has mowed through the Xavier's library (fiction, mostly) and remembers most everything that he's read.
If "being adored by others" is a hobby, that's his second favorite. :p

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
- Senior year! Felix is looking forward to totally shedding his Weird Kid past. New icons forthcoming!
- Felix is taking a bigger role in the Black Court at the Hellfire Club. He's also working his influence on a few of the older non-mutant HFC members.
- Working on dream-sharing with Eames and Arthur in order to turn to a life of righteous crime when he's a little older.
- Since Remus is leaving for University in England :( Felix will be auditioning new boyfriends. I'm accepting volunteers. :p Your PC may or may not be aware of the audition, and Felix may be stringing some flirtations along over the summer.
- Seriously he's a terrible person and someone should stop him. >.>

Re: Felix Harrowgate | Ghost

[om_thoth]

*Hands another Weird Kid over on a silver platter*

Diaval Woods | Rook

[om_rook]

Name: Diaval Woods

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Senior. He caught up well enough, and he should already be done with secondary school by now anyway.

Favorite Hobby/Sport:
Changing into animal shape and being adorable, I guess. :)

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
Diaval might get it in his head that he could actually Do Something about being a mutant, and make his own choices about his life. I'd like to get him talking to someone in LXQ who might encourage him to join. He'd make an excellent spy?

Also, relationships are maybe a thing he could try?

Re: Diaval Woods | Rook

[om_clarius]

Steve's about to join and he can be on the side of 'non-combat powers' and encourage him to join anyway?

Cindy Ye Xian | Echo

[om_echo]

Name: Cindy

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Senior

Living Accommodations (graduated students): N/A

Favorite Hobby/Sport:
Hobby: Shoe Design
Sport: Anything that gets the adrenaline pumping

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
-Hellfire Club stuff? As the new White Queen, she's sure there is plenty to do.
-Birthday on 10/24 which means 1) Awesome birthday party and 2) turning 18 and taking over her father's company.
-Something to play with her mutation more

Re: Cindy Ye Xian | Echo

[om_ghost]

Reading up on Cindy's power more, it sounds like she and Felix could be a very dangerous pair, if Cindy were to take on his "manipulating people for fun and profit and also no reason" abilities... but also have like, an actual moral compass which Felix is lacking. Maybe they should meet doing HFC things?

Irvine Kinneas | Trickshot

[om_trickshot]

Name: Irvine Kinneas

Living Accommodations (graduated students): An apartment in Salem Center, commuting back to school to help with Equestrian class and the stables.

Favorite Hobby/Sport:
Gunnnnssssssss.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
- Mutant Thievery Scandal!! They're gonna make it big, okay.
- So his long-lost Love Of His Life is showing up at the school and doesn't remember him, so THAT'S A THING. Cue lots of upcoming Irvine-angst!
- Incidentally he'll also be getting a job and attending community college studying Agriculture, but that all is clearly inferior to ROCK STARDOM and SELPHIE.

Re: Irvine Kinneas | Trickshot

[om_echo]

Cindy is in the stables often. Maybe they could meet?

Kurt Wagner | Nightcrawler

[om_nightcrawler]

Name: Kurt

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): N/A

Living Accommodations (graduated students): Living with Blaine at the school

Favorite Hobby/Sport:
Hobby: Acrobatics/gymnastics
Sport: Fencing

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
-Visiting his family/the troupe, as well as his birth father in Germany.
-For now, he's been keeping the news about his birth father a secret, and has only told a few close friends. When he leaves to visit, word will be getting out. Mostly because he doesn't want people at the school learning about it from the news.
-Getting married
-Acrobat stuff!
-Something with Mystique eventually?
-More concrete plans for his future! Will he go to college? Join the X-Men? Do something else? He doesn't know, and I'm still figuring it out too!

Re: Kurt Wagner | Nightcrawler

[om_shade]

If Mystique ever comes out of the woodwork Eames begs to opportunity to meet Kurt's mom. >.>

-Have the are we boyfriend/girlfriend talk with Kitty. Come on, Pete, get on with that

Re: Peter Parker | Spiderman

[om_shadowcat]

Re: Bigby Wolf | Grimm

[om_changeling]

Should Bigby find himself in need of an assistant with the PI work at some point (or some office help, for that matter) please keep Toby in mind?

Steve Jinks

[om_clarius]

Name: Steve (Jinks)

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): N/A

Living Accommodations (graduated students): He has an apartment in town, though definitely still spends some nights with Jack at the school.

Favorite Hobby/Sport: Basketball, no brainer. Maybe he can be one of the coaches, now that he's graduated?

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up): He's joining LXQ and graduating, so he's definitely figuring out how he's going to fit in that role. That said, he'd love to interact more with some of the graduates. Also, *eyes Kate*, possibly some drama with his mother.

Re: Steve Jinks

[om_quicksilver]

Oh god, Steve and his mother. PREPARING FOR HEARTBREAK NOW.

Daniel Jackson

[om_thoth]

Name: Daniel

Grade Level for the Coming Year (students): Junior (believe it or not)

Living Accommodations (graduated students): N/A

Favorite Hobby/Sport: The history and culture of...essentially the entire world, though he does have a specific interest in ancient Egypt.

Anything you'd like to do with them (or plots coming up):
- He's introducing Ianto to New York City and the wonderful world of coffee. That said, if you're very nice to him, he might let you have a cup of his really expensive, really good quality coffee.
- He needs to get over being scared of, not his powers, but of what it might mean if he doesn't have them. So he wants people he can trust and people who might be willing to record him to show that he's not just crazy.
- More people. Just...more. Especially people with an interest in history. Or language. Or anthropology. Or archaeology.

Re: Daniel Jackson

[om_ghost]

an interest in history. Or language. Or anthropology. Or archaeology.

Hi. :D
