[Link] | Character Information
Name: Lorna Dane
Codename: Polaris
Age/DOB: 18/January 14th
Affiliations: X-Men
Occupation: Student
Physical Traits:
-5'7. Green hair, green lips, kinda hard to miss.
Powers:
Lorna can sense and control metal. She can manipulate the Earth's magnetic field so that she is able to fly, generate magnetic energy pulses, and create force fields. If she concentrate hard enough she can see the world around her in patterns of magnetics energy.
Personality:
Lorna is shy. Since coming to Xavier's she has become a lot better about it but tends to get flustered easily if she is in a large crowd. She can be a bit jittery, playing with her metal bracelets that she always wears or fiddling with her hair. She also has a habit of biting her lower lip, something she can't seem to break no matter how hard she tries. When nervous she begins to babble uncontrollably, she'd like to think she is better about it but that is a dirty lie.
Lorna is fiercely loyal and protective of those she cares about. She has a fear of being left behind that might make her try to push people away but that is mainly for her own self protection. Overall she sticks to herself but once she opens up there is no holding her back.
Backgrounder/History:
Lorna Dane was born and raised in and around San Fransisco. Being born with green hair she grew used to having it dyed and eventually wearing a wig. Her lips were a little harder to conceal and over time her mother pulled her out of the school system to be home-schooled. She figured it was easier that way.
Growing up she never knew who her father was but she figured he left because of what she was. She learned from an early age that her being different was something that she should hide from other people for safety's sake. When she finally developed her ability to control metal her mother cried for days, she never really understood why. As she grew older she became more defiant and refused to wear her wig, luckily San Fran was pretty open to the weird and the strange. She still remembers seeing Magneto on her television. She thought about joining him, if for no other reason then wanting to be around others like her. In the end she didn't though, she was too afraid they wouldn't want her around either.
When she was sixteen her mother was diagnosed with cancer and it wasn't long before she was left on her own. Lorna was sent to Xavier's school not long after and she couldn't be more miserable. Her first couple of days were...rough at best and she was sure she was doomed to be an outcast forever. Over time she formed a close friendship with Warren Worthington which slowly turned into something more. She was crushed when they put their relationship on hold so he could go work with his father but there wasn't much she could do about it.
Lorna is now trying to finish her education and trying to decide what to do with herself.
RPG Information:
Gizmo/LJ Chat Screenname: </a></b></a></div></a>![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)

Car:Nada, luckily she can fly.
Cell phone: Some random one she found at Verizon.

oh goody, more homework
I don't know. Doesn't our entire childhood shape us?
Ok, I guess it would have to be when I was thirteen and wore my hair normally. I had always dyed it or worn a wig, anything to hide what it actually looked like. It's hard to explain why a four year old has green hair, I guess. Anyway, I wore it out around San Fran and sure it got some looks but no one said anything to me. They probably thought I was just rebelling against my parents.
It's not much but it was the start of me going out without hiding. It's nice not having to hide behind a wig and worrying about people noticing. So there you go, something from my childhood. Horribly exciting I know. I'm going to go find another way to waste five minutes of my life. Sadly. I doubt it will be too hard.

[Link] | Well I had my first big Thanksgiving celebration. I've never really celebrated it before, no real point i's not like I eat turkey anyways. I have to say it was nice, weird but nice. The weather here sucks and I have to admit I'm am really missing Cali right about now but what can you do? I think I might get a part time job and save up for a trip this summer. I miss the coast and the sun and it would be something to look forward to. Overall I don't have any complaints. I've managed not to cause myself or anybody else any damage in the DR and drama around here is actually pretty low (knock on wood). Well I've caught up with my homework and now I've done my blog so I'm going to go treat myself to an afternoon fly. Later!

[Link] | Just when I thought I couldn't hate the danger room any more! It's been a week since we went up against that overgrown tin box and I still have a bruise from where that beam hit me. It wouldn't be so bad except that my shirt keeps rubbing against it.
Speaking of clothes I have no idea what I'm going to wear for this Halloween shindig. I haven't dressed up since I was 5 so I have no clue as to what to go as. I don't suppose anyone is up for a shopping trip into town to go look for something? Seriously I could use the guidance.
Classes haven't been too bad so far, the whole actually going to class is still weird but oh well. At least the rain hasn't really started yet (knocks on wood), still I miss California weather. I can't believe I've been here for almost six months, that it's almost been six months since...
Well I hate to waste a decent day on here so I'm off for a fly, maybe then I'll do some homework, but probably not.

*Private*
I'm so excited! I'm finally getting a place where I can be on my own. Granted I still have to build the tree house, but the point is I have someplace that is just mine again. Since Cupid has said he will help build it I have thought of nothing else, not even mom or home. I know thats probably bad but I don't care because I feel happier, not top of the world but better and that's a start. Besides Cupid is nice and Lord knows I could use with some more friends, and honestly I think he needs this place too.

Holy Magneto!
I swear the only thing anyone is talking about is Magneto. Students, the news, it's all the same Mags, Mags, Mags. I know he has done some terrible things, but at the same time it kinda makes sense that he has this job. I had never heard of the guy until his little march on San Fran. On one hand I was scared, the friggin city was in a panic and anyone who even looked like a mutie was treated as threat number one. Then again I have to admit that when I saw him march with all of those mutants behind him, I wanted to go too. It was like, we were in control, like I didn't have to be ashamed or have to hide. Finally I could show my green hair, I could use my powers in public, I could be normal. It was appealing. I didn't go because I knew the march was against people like my mom, but I understood the allure.
I guess what I'm saying is it makes sense that they would choose someone like him for the job, someone who can organize and inspire people. Maybe he's just a man who in the past felt trapped and powerless, but he has something that's his. Something he can mold and shape so he can actually do some good. I mean come on he's going to be watched like a hawk, he wont be able to scratch his nose without people knowing. I know he's done wrong but I like to hope that he can do some good. No one is pure evil, even if we like to classify them as such.

Boys suck, my mom was right to home school me.
Just want to be friends. Does he really think he's that much of a catch that I thought it would be anything else? Seriously it's not like I was throwing myself at him, besides he offered to take me. So what if I thought he was cute, and sweet, and ahhhhhh I'm an idiot. I still maintain that I did not act like it was a date. Hell, I barely talked between his and Ali's verbal sexcapade. He really doesn't know how lucky he is that I didn't accidentally cause a metal storm in that piercing shop. After all my control on my powers have been a bit iffy nowadays. Speaking of which, WHAT THE HELL was I thinking trying to start a power fight with Ali? I have a feeling NY is not in the mood to deal with another metal wielding mutant. The East Coast officially sucks, the one day it's sunny is the one day I would like for nothing more than a downpour. At least I did not cry in front of him. So I have a friend, good, great, now to just get over this awkward rejection feeling I have whenever I see him. Maybe I can convince cupid to dress up, you know to make me feel better. After all something good is bound to happen soon, right?

I think I have developed the plague. The only person to talk to me since I have been here has been avoiding me since the girl, Rogue I think, pushed past us while we were talking. Nobody has said anything about my mom, so at lease I know he hasn’t said anything. I just wish I knew what I did wrong, cause obviously I pissed Julian and that girl off somehow. All she does is glare at me, and I swear I heard her growl at me in class that day. Any other student that might want to talk to me is either A) friends with her, so talking to me is awkward B) pissed off because I ripped a piece of metal out of their body, ACCIDENTLY or C) hiding around the mansion, or off visiting the sick kid, busy, or whatever The point is I’m lonely, I have more homework than I have ever had, and my body HURTS from all the martial arts/Danger room sessions. On a happier note the chick with the blue hair left so no snoring to annoy me at night. I never actually talked to her and yet still she leaves after my being here only 2 days. I’m sure it’s not all my fault but hey I might as well take credit. Well I’m officially over being emo, and now I’m off to watch Boondock Saints, hopefully there’s a free tv somewhere in this place. I’m in serious need of some hot Irish brothers time.

So about the other day....
So It has come to my attention that my little...episode if you will, the other day in the Danger Room caused a little damage to certain metal studded students. Yeah sorry about that, I usually have good control, I'm convinced it was the ridiculous amounts of cow carcasses you lot were wearing. Anyway if I messed up your face or um other areas, hell even if I threw you against the wall I apologize. I really didn't mean to!
That being said, you'd think there would be a rule about wearing piercings to power ranger camp,.I mean I know it's all about learning how to handle yourself in 'real life' or what not but really it just seems like you're asking for trouble. May I suggest plastic jewelry in the future? Less cool but at least your safe from having it ripped out of anywhere. Or you know there are always tattoos, I'm just saying.
Also, I'm not sure if I'm the only vegetarian here or not but is it possible to have a little more variety? I mean salad is fine and all but I really can't afford to become anymore green.

Oh that's right I'm at a school
So I still don't know where the hell anything is in this place and I've already been given a schedule, at least I know one semi-sane person in each class, not that I've met half the students yet, I don't know how much more drama I can take:
8:30 - 9:00
General Music- At least it wont matter that it’s too early to take, not alot of thought required for that class
9:00 - 9:40
AP English- Could be interesting
9:45 - 10:25
Science- Accidental explosion anyone?
10:30 - 11:10
AP History / Ethics – This at least looks cool
11:15 - 12:00
Mutant History- The story of how mutants destroy precious historical monuments one by one
Lunch
1:00 - 1:45
Mixed Media- Cake class
1:45 - 2:25
Math – EWWWWWW
2:25 - 3:00
Beginner's Martial Arts—So that right after my brain gets the shit beaten out of it by math by body can get beaten up by pissed off students
On another note it seems I have already made an enemy. I swear all I do is cause havok, no freakin wonder my mom home schooled me. Oh and nobody should require war games, Danger room sessions, whatever, that early in the morning. Honestly you are just asking for a homicide. Now I'm going to go figure out how to get ten metal hangers out of my wall, honest to god I had no idea how that happened must have a ghost or something fuckin wire hangers...
