Personality:
Ben can come off as cocky at first, but this was just how he was raised. However, he isn't mean or rude. He just has a lot of faith in himself. Ben is somewhat of a ladies man and thinks he can get any girl he wants. He thinks it is easy for him because of his british accent. He loves his home country very much, but knows that his allegiance lies with the X-Men and thus made a promise to stay with them. He is very loyal to his friends and companions.
Power Description:
He can absorb light energy and convert it into physical strength, stamina and a certain amount of invulnerability. He can also fly, because he can manipulate the light to do something physical, such as carry him. When he flies he has a trail of light behind him, like the tail of a meteor or something.
Power Weaknesses:
There needs to be light for him to absorb in order for him to use his powers. Though he has a degree of invulnerability, he can get hurt if he falls from a great distance, or if something hits him with great force.
Fighting Skills:
boxing
Family: Brian Braddock (dad), Meggan Braddock (mom), Breanna Braddock (younger sister), Betsy Braddock (aunt)
Contacts: Esther Wagner (friend), Wolverine
Enemies: Brotherhood, Acolytes
History:
Ben was concieved and born during a brief period of peace between the mutants and the humans. He was born in London to Brian Braddock (Captain Britain) and Meggan. Trouble started to brew again by the time his younger sister was born. To keep them safe, they were sent to boarding school. This was so the parents would be free to save the world without worrying about their children. Because of this, he didn't form that close of a bond with them. Once he developed powers, at age 13, he was sent to the institute so he could learn to control and deal with them. He learned control by the time he was 18, but still choses to stay at the mansion and help. His sister however, is powerless and goes to school in England.
Sample Post:
It was 3 o'clock. It was also a Tuesday. This meant it was danger room day. A training session was held every other day at the same time. At first this was something he detested, but now it wasn't so bad. He actually enjoyed it. It gave him the chance to show off his powers in the privacy of his own home. He stood outside and waited for the others. He kinda hoped they'd be doing one of Logan's training sessions today. They were challenging and he loved a good challenge.
It was eerily quiet. This was because most people were forbidden to be near the danger room. You had to earn your spot on the team in order to use it. Most of the new recruits weren't able to use it yet. It was something you learned as an upper classman or once you had control of your powers.
He heard footsteps coming down the hall. He waited, feeling like a moron for being the first one there.
