“Sometimes when you intensely dislike a person due to something,
you just have to take comfort in the fact that, one day, they will be dead."
Andrew Xavier Proctor
Nicknames
The adults refer to him by his surname while the rest of the trainees simply call him 'Drew'. Those select few who he's not particularly socially awkward around get the priviledge of calling him 'Andy'.
Sexuality
Heterosexual
|| Shocking, he knows ||
Sexuality has always been a touchy subject for Andrew because, no matter how many girlfriends he's had, people automatically assume he's homosexual. Don't get him wrong, he isn't homophobic in any way. In fact, he could give a shit less what sexuality you are. But to be outright judged like that bothers him, and it severely throws off his game...what little he has.
Alliance
Hero
Power
Telekinesis
||The power to manipulate objects with the mind||
Andrew has always considered it to be a lame power, one that couldn't get him far on the Hero scale. Before he learned to hone his powers for combat, he used it to do simple things like fix himself a drink whilst sitting on the sofa or cooking while he played video games.

Socially, he's as awkward as they come. Andrew has always been an introvert, ever since Primary School. When he's around a crowd of people or a small group of strangers he'll occupy himself in some way: be it pretending to text or simply making small stuff move around. It's when he gets comfortable enough around you, that's when he truly shines. Andrew has a heart of gold and a good sense of humor to match. He's hilarious when he wants to be and an incredible dork, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. People are captivated by his articulation, his literacy, his high level of intelligence, and overall great common sense. It does take some time to see that beautiful person beneath all those high security walls, however. And some people just don't bother to give him a chance.
Andrew is a sucker for intelligence. If he can have an in depth conversation with you, you're pretty much the best thing that's walked the planet. And as much as he loves using his well-rounded vocabulary, he's very vulgar. He loves cursing, but he doesn't abusive it. Now the small things. Andrew likes: Miyuzaki films, the BBC, Starbucks Coffee, all variations of Music besides Rap and Country, the Internet, and playing video games. A few things he hates: stupid people, ignorance, arrogance, inconsiderate people, and diet soda.
His power is Telekinesis. What does that mean? Well, users can manipulate/move objects with their mind. Telekinesis is one of the basis of many superpowers that are based on "controlling/manipulating", it may evolve to the point that a Telekinetic can control anything at a subatomic level. That's the ultimate goal of his training, not just moving his furniture around his dorm. On the other hand, there are some limitations. Beginners need time to practice. Fortunately, Andrew's had plenty.The user may be prone to headaches due to the mental focus that is required, as a result the ability could be limited to allow recovery. This happens to Andrew when he overexerts himself. His training requires him to improve little by little. Psychic strength may be proportional to user's capacity as well, meaning an opponent with physical strength stronger than the user's mental strength may break free, or even be immune to the ability altogether.
Because of all the time spent on the internet, Andrew has become quite the gifted computer hacker. He's not good enough to be considered Techopathic but he's pretty decent considering he was self-taught. He's also very adept in linguistics. He could be considered a Polygot if it weren't for those old dead languages. Except Latin; he's fluent in Latin. He probably became so highly skilled because of his eidetic memory, if he could take a guess. As a child he was taught how to play the piano and the violin. Sometimes he would use his abilities to freak people out (i.e. playing the theme from the horror movie Halloween with his mind.) He's an internet enthusiast, meaning he could probably teach your grandmother how to make a better Facebook page than yours in half the time it took you to make your own. He's also an avid gamer. He doesn't mean to brag, but he can play Free Bird on Guitar Hero to perfection.
Andrew was born in Berkshire, London and stayed there for the majority of his childhood. The first time he ever used his powers, or ever found out he had them for that matter, was at Primary School. A kid was bullying him—Henry, his name was. Henry had bullied him to the point where Andrew couldn't take it anymore. Young Andrew let him to the tether ball pole and made the ball come around and smack him right in the face, all without touching it. The damage inflicted couldn't have been achieved by any child, said the Headmistress, so Andrew was never expelled. His parents took him out of school nonetheless. He was home-schooled from then on, and his parents slowly coped with his abilities along with him. Oddly enough, they were very understanding about having a 'freak' for a son. However, Andrew learned quite quickly how eager they were to get rid of him. When he was picked up at age fourteen to be taken to the Hero Facility under Golden Gate Bridge Park, his parents didn't so much as bat an eyelash. Andrew felt abandoned, unloved, and betrayed. Though, once he began to adapt to his new lifestyle, he didn't feel so broken anymore. He's happy, for the most part, even after his bad experience the first night he was allowed to train outside by himself. He was sent by Scott into the park above the compound for some solo training when it happened. He saw a woman getting mugged and he immediately stepped in to intervene. He was shot, left alone after both the mugger and the woman almost-mugged disappeared. He can't recall how he got back to the compound that night, or how the bullet managed to vanish from his shoulder blade. Since that night he's had dreams of a strange girl with amber eyes and bright red lips, though he can't recollect where or when he's seen her. It's one of those things he can't forget but doesn't keep him up at night. Eventually though, he learned to avoid getting hurt when he was allowed on ground. Those were most possibly his favorite assignments, when he was sent up from their underground compound to do something tedious or training related. Being stuck under Golden Gate Bridge Park for too long often set him on edge. Despite that, over the past five years he's honed his powers to an impressive amount. But his social awkwardness and incapability to put his trust into anyone has forced him to live amongst kindred spirits as a bit of an outcast. Except, of course, the one friend he has amongst the trainees...
Theme Song
Hear Me | Imagine Dragons
Try to hear my voice
You can leave, now it's your choice
Maybe if I fall asleep, I won't breathe right
Maybe if I leave tonight, I won't come back
I said it before, I won't say it again
Love is a game to you, it's not pretend
Maybe if I fall asleep, I won't breathe right
Can nobody hear me?
I got a lot that's on my mind
I cannot breathe
Can you hear it, too?
You kiss and you kiss
And you love and you love
You got a history list and the rest is above
And if you've won, then you can't relate to me
From the floor to the floor
And the sky to the sky
You've got to love and adore and the rest is awry
And if you've won, then you can't relate to me
I said it before, I won't say it again
Love is a game to you, it's not pretend
Maybe if I fall asleep, I won't breathe right, right, right
Can nobody hear me?
I got a lot that's on my mind
I cannot breathe
Can you hear it, too?
Leave your shoes at the door, baby
I am all you adore, lately
Come with me and we will run away
Can nobody hear me?
I got a lot that's on my mind
I cannot breathe
Can you hear it, too?
Can nobody hear me?
I got a lot that's on my mind
I cannot breathe
Can you hear it, too?
