Sammy
power: Lightening or electricity in general. Her control over electricity can give her the ability (once she has mastered all other parts of it) to travel at speeds close to that of light, though it expends a great deal of energy. Also, she can use the electrity to hover above the ground and shoot herself in a direct with some accuracy, though it's not truely flying. These finer points will not be available to her for a while, though.
Bio: She was born near the close of the war,so she was in the last period of children born with the mutation. Her parents had always had hopes that she would be one of the children who did not recieve the mutaion, but a blood test when shewas 4 proved that she had in fact been affected.
Her parents decided not to tell her about her abilities, and her whole life they ytold her how unfortunate and cursed the children who were touched by the mutations were. They told her that they were so glad she was normal and that she should be too. However, she always gfelt that a part of her lifewas missing. Then, one day, she got really mad at her parents for not letting her go to a school dance, and as she yelled, the lights began to flicker. Then, as her emotions peaked, all the bulb exploded. She was shocked, and her parnts were appalled. They hadn't considered that she might figure her powers out on her own. She demanded that they take her for a blood test, but they refused. But it was done. Now she knew what she was. She was angry that her parents had hidden her ability from her, but she figured they had done it to protect her. After all, they loved her.
One night, she was out on a ate with her boyfriend, and they saw a man being mugged. She wantd to help, but there was nothing she could do. They just continued on by. She wished that she could learn to use her powers so that she could help those in need. Then, she got the letter. The government wanted her to attend an academy where she could legally develope her powers. Shewould have to fight for the government, but in return, she would recieve her college education on a complete scolarship!! Also, she'd get a nice lump a cash to put in the bank.
At first her parents were against the idea, but when she told them about the scolarship, they agreed.
Soo... I guess she's at the school now??
Personality: She kinda preppy, but she really likes to skate board and surf. She loves the mall and seems to always be happy. She's a complete optomist, glass half full kind of girl.
