Powers:
'My power may only have got me to Cabin Three, but I wouldn't trade it for the world'
Escape Intuition or Escape Artistry as Noah likes to term it is the power to escape any bonds, break through any fetters, or otherwise escape captivity with ease.
Noah has the ability to intuit how to avoid danger, it allows him to perceive what part of an area is least dangerous, and how to get there with the least harm. If Noah is cornered (even in a conversation), it allows him to perceive which of the foes he will be able to slip past, and how to slip past him most effectively.
Noah can silently escape from any place as long as he is under captivity. He can make stealthy getaways without interference and instinctively sense the best way to escape from a situation.
Weaknesses:
Noah's power only works in avoidable situations. If something has even a small possibility of being able to escape, he'll be able too. But if an event has been sealed as a definite future, is too big, or is too widespread, then this power will be of little use. So if the situation is unavoidable Noah's powers mean nothing.

Fears:
Finding an inescapably trap 'I can escape the impossible, but one day I fear that I'll meet my match'
Large Crowds 'I can think of nothing worse than being stuck in the middle of a massive crowd.'
Losing his sisters 'They are the world to me and if I lost them... I'd be distraught'
Hobbies:

Thoughts:
'Maydon is... intense. It's definitely not for those who want to slack off. I've loved being able to enhance and push my power to the limit... but I do always look across the lake and wonder what fun the Fairview kids are having.'
Personality:
Noah isn't the loudest of people. Sure, around his friends he can often be found making loud, low-brow jokes and chattering like there's no tomorrow, but put him in a room of strangers are you'll rarely hear Noah say a word. He's shy when he's uncomfortable and prefers not speaking to blurting out odd sentences.
Not only that, but until someone has proved that he can trust them he views them as potential threats. He's very analytical of those he doesn't know well, it takes a lot to get Noah to relax around strangers. When he's with his friends there are times when he'll let his guard down, close his eyes and relax. Around strangers that would never happen. His power gives him the ability to escape from seemingly impossible situations and he's always ready to use it in case someone goes on the offensive.
Oddly enough, when it comes to bravery and daring, Noah has that in abundance. He might be shy and mouse-like around strangers, but when confronted with an extreme sport or dangerous activity Noah will rarely back down. This is, in part, due to the fact that he can get himself out of any situation with his power. If something goes wrong he'll manage to save himself, so in his eyes there is little risk in what he does.
Noah's powers mean that he can avoid any dangerous situations. While he'll willingly throw himself into an extreme sport, when he's confronted with a dangerous situation out of his control he'll escape.
Aside from his initial shyness and distrust, Noah is actually a pretty friendly guy. Once you've gained Noah's trust he becomes a reliable, caring guy who is quick to laugh and slow to anger. The only thing to try his patience is persistent teasing or bullying. It takes a lot to rile him up, especially since he's likely to avoid confrontation.

History:
Noah father, Sir Gregor Fenton, was a knighted entrepreneur with a talent for inventing. His mother was Alicia Fenton, a prize winning horse rider. The two joined forces for a project and fell in love, their mutual determination drawing them together. They married a year later and another year after that Noah, their first and only boy, was born.
It was evident from the get go that Noah was a little... odd. His nannies would often remark to his parents that they would return to his nursery to find Noah had escaped from his cot, or that he'd found his way outside when he was grounded and locked inside. Anyone that tried to contain Noah always found that it didn't stick.
When he was three his parents graced him a pair of sisters, twins. Unlike Noah they didn't seem to magically escape containment. They were adorable, sweet and grew into just as kind girls. Noah doted on his sisters and from a young age was very defensive of them. He took it as his role to protect them.
As he got older his shyness became evident. He had a set of good friends but rarely struck out from them. Still, he was never too fussed. As long as he had his friends and his sisters then he never lacked anything. Bullies often found it hard to pick on him too. They couldn't quite comprehend how he was able to avoid any physical harm all the time. If he was cornered in an alley somehow he'd manage to squeeze by. Even when being verbally bullied Noah had the skill to turn the conversation around with such a degree of subtlety that the aggressor didn't know what was going on until Noah had left.
It was until his mid-teenage years that Noah realised what he could do wasn't human, that it was in fact a power. He told his parents who obviously had some idea that Noah wasn't normal, considering his early childhood. They in turn got into contact with the director of Camp Maydon. That was how Noah began to attend the camp. He has never regretted the choice, but sometimes finds himself wondering what life at Camp Fairview would be like.
