Description

Personality

Xypher is a very cocky and stubborn individual, always insisting he can handle anything by himself, and constantly refusing the help of others. Most believe that it's because his ego is humongous; that's what he wants them think. In reality, he doesn't want anyone he cares for to get hurt. He attaches himself to people pretty quickly, even though he pretends everyone annoys him. He always brags about how quickly he figured out how to use his power, even if he only discovered them by a fluke. He is prone to making snide remarks and seemingly hurtful comments, but these are meant [though not always received] in the intended manner. He is a hard-core rebel supporter; he feels that the Genesis process is wrong, and takes away from their human rights. At the same time, however, he is secretly thankful that it happened to him, and could not imagine his life without his powers.

Sarcastic and brash, yet very mature when it comes to his position in the Rebel Faction Armada, to the bewilderment of everyone he knows. Not even he is quite sure why he acts the way he does when given responsibility, but he believes its due to his nature of seeing things through effectively to the end. For reasons unknown to him, he hates vehicles. He prefers to wear close-fitting, durable clothing that allow for movement, such as slim-fitting jeans and sleeveless shirts, and is almost never seen without a pair of leather gloves and boots on.

History

When the boy awoke in confusion from Genesis, he instantly started firing off his mouth with questions and profanities; why was he naked, where was he, who was he, who the hell were these men surrounding him, why did they have guns... the likes. They simply answered, "You are our creation,". Before they could continue, the boy flew off the handle even further, cutting them off asking them what they meant by that and why he was still naked. Due to his reaction, they didn't even give him the option of servitude, fearing he would be too much of a loose cannon to keep a tight chain on. And so, they put out the order for his extermination. Just as the bullets began to fly at him, he panicked, accidentally activating his power, and ended up behind the firing squad. He was bewildered for a moment, not knowing what had happened, but knew he didn't have too much time to think about the past minute; he had to escape. After ten minutes of aimlessly teleporting around the facility, he finally found his way to an unguarded emergency exit. He climbed up the ladder as quickly as he could manage, but security was hot on his tail. They began open fire, so again he panicked, and not knowing the danger behind his actions, teleported to the other side of the hatch about four-hundred meters above him. Luckily, the boy had estimated exactly how far he needed to go, and ended up on the inside of the operation's cover facility.

After finally teleporting out of the building's premise, he was so fatigued that he could barely walk. He found himself a tree in a near-by forest, and teleported one last time to a large branch high up, almost instantly falling asleep in its boughs. He awoke the next day to commotion; jumping from his hard bed and nearly falling to the ground fifty meters below, teleporting at the last second to slow his momentum enough for him to survive the fall. It turned out that the commotion was simply a squirrel nearby, but he realized that dwelling here for too long was probably not the smartest of ideas.

After a good two hours of stumbling south, he finally found his way to New York City. No one payed any mind to the naked man as he stumbled along, asking multiple questions, except one person. This girl almost instantly realized what had happened to him, herself being an escaped mutant, and offered him sanctity, clothing, and answers. She brought him to her apartment, where she lived under the alias of Nina Lione, [though within the mutant community, she was known as Lillia] and told him what she knew of Genesis. After he had rested enough, and absorbed the info she could offer, Lilia brought him to a local support group, and got him integrated into human society under the alias of "Alex Cross". Since then, he has adopted the name Xypher, and has trained with Lillia and the support group, rising up in its rebellious ranks. It's been a year since then...

Xypher is currently one of the higher-ups in the Rebel Faction Armada, yet though most would expect it from him, he is extremely mature when it comes to his position and its duties, such as mutant integration and documentation [despite Armada being a band of rag-tag mutants with no real line of power, they are extremely organized, documenting each mutant they help.] Lilia remains his closes friend, though romantically they are not and will never be involved. He looks after her like a little sister, and her likewise, though on a more profound level.
