“This is the bit that really annoys me, all the things that could be fixed in this world with money? And every time it's 'well I've got all this cash but I bought an asteroid base with it instead”
CYCLOPS
Name: Scott Summers
Alias(es): Scotty, Cyke, Slim
REGULAR
Age: 27
Height: 6'2
Physical Description: The thing that most people notice about Scott first are his eyes, always hidden behind his visor or sunglasses but still they can be seen to glow with unnatural red light that only stops when he shuts his eyes other then that Scott his fairly average looking, he wears his dark brown hair in a casual yet slightly messy side parting that is more for ease then any sort of fashion statement and is always clean shaven, over all he could easily be handed a pipe and a turtle neck and fit in to a lawn mowing scene in 1950'ies suburbia. He is well built but more lean then muscular because of his focus on speed rather then pure power when engaged in his near constant danger room sessions. When it comes to clothes Scott only really has one 'look', normally a pair of jeans and a t-shirt topped with a leather jacket and shoes/boots as well as his red shades that he can not be with out and unless the situation deems it he very rarely changes the combination. The most colourful he gets is when he is wearing his combat uniforms, normally in the X-men's blue and yellow with a small X logo on the left breast, he wears what appears to resemble a diver's suit that exchanges his shades for a visor with a trigger button and power dial that controls the power of his optic blasts.
Face Claim: James Marsden - PLEASE MAKE SURE THEY’RE NOT ALREADY TAKEN]
Personality: Scott is a very moral individual and likes to view the world in very black and white terms. He always believes that there is a right and wrong choice to every decision and gets most stressed in situations that have a grey morality. He is an extremely calm individual and believes the best situations are ones made with a clear head. It takes a lot to get under his skin and it has to be very personal for Cyclops to lose his cool, normally something that endangers the people he cares about or violates his personal belief system. Speaking of his belief system Scott Summers is a proud disciple of Professor Charles Xavier, he believes whole heartedly in the ideal of Human and Mutant co-existence and believes it is Homo-Superior's duty to help protect and aid humanity whenever it can.
Affiliation: X-men
Identity: SECRET
Powers or Special Abilities: Cyclops' mutation stems from his eyes, upon the activation of his Mutant X-gene a change in Scott's brain discharged an extremely powerful mixture of kinetic, light, and heat energy in the form of a blast of red light that at full power can level thick concrete walls and kill instantly. Luckily for Scott after joining the Xavier School for Higher Learning he was given both a ruby quartz visor and a pair of sun glasses that were able to contain his beams. When using the visor he is able to control the power of his beams by adjusting the settings on the sides of the visor from the lowest settings that are about as powerful as a punch to full power which allows him to use the full force of his ability.
Skills: Marksman: Scott is an expert at using his optic blasts to hit targets, he is equally at proficient at hitting targets at point blank or long ranges and can also hit targets moving at speed.
Tactician: Scott is a skilled tactician when it comes to fighting as a team and uses his quick thinking to come up with strategies that out think his opponents.
Pilot: Cyclops is trained at flying the X-men's Bluebird jet and when needed can perform difficult areal manoeuvres.
Advantages: Close Combat Fighter: Whilst not trained in any particular close combat style Cyclops is a good brawler and whilst not as skilled as he is at ranged combat he can throw a good punch and when needed can fight hand to hand.
Leadership: Scott sees himself as the de facto leader of the X-men and is very easy to follow in to battle. He tries to be there for everybody at the mansion in order to gain their respect when he has to give orders. He uses his team mate's strengths and weaknesses to get the best performance out of them.
Disadvantages: Unable to control his powers: With out his glasses and his visor Scott can't control how strong his optic blasts are and must close his eyes in order to stop them, rendering himself blind.
Slightly Colour blind: Scott sees the world through a red tinted hue both when wearing his glasses and when his optic blasts are firing meaning he can not identify colour properly.
Occupation: Hero and part time teacher.
Citizenship: The United States of America.
Place of Birth: Anchorage, Alaska
Relatives: Christopher Summers (Father), Cathrine-Anne Summers (Mother) Alex Summers (Younger Brother)
History: Hello, I am Scott Summers and I suppose this is my story. I was born in Alaska, Anchorage to be exact though it has been a while since I have been back. I grew up in a fairly normal family home...your average all American place I suppose. I had... still have a Mom and a Dad and a kid Brother, I went to school and I had friends who I liked to hang out with. I suppose that isn't the part you're interested in though is it?
Didn't think so, alright then...Well it begun at High School, I'm not sure exactly what set it off really. Some Mutants have their powers set off by puberty but I suppose I was a late bloomer? ...With my powers not puberty! Oh god...Alright back on track. Well I suppose I was lucky in how my powers activated. It was after school and I was walking through the hallways probably some sort of after school club or something but I can't quite remember what. Anyway that isn't really important what is important is that suddenly for no reason as I walked towards the exit I felt a slight vibration inside my head and suddenly the double doors and most of the wall holding them up was blasted out of the building.
Now I was terrified at this point and rightly so...I mean doesn't a seventeen year old have enough to worry about with out his eyes spontaneously firing concussive blasts? Well naturally I closed my eyes as tight as I could and it stopped...that was the last time I opened my eyes for a long term until I met them. I say them despite the fact that I tend to credit Charles Xavier for finding me himself but I should point out that it wasn't only him. This was 2002 and I met both Charles Xavier and Erik Leshnerr...known my most people as Magneto and despite the monster he has now become I owe him almost as much as I do Professor Xavier. The first thing they did for me was give me my red glasses, after they did that then I would've done whatever they asked of me. It was then that with my parent's permission I left with them to join the Xavier Academy for Higher Learning.
It was at the Academy that I met life long friends like Hank, Bobby, Jean and Warren. We were some of the first of Professor Xavier's X-men and the school has been growing ever since, I've been on a lot of Adventures many that were good and many that were bad but I haven't regretted a single day since. My life has become a whole lot more interesting but what I really love about my life over the past ten years is that I've genuinely helped people. The Xavier School helps every one it can both human and mutant alike and it's wonderful to know that a place like that can exist.
