Basics: Garm, Karrl. Camaxtli
Full Name: Carlos Alexander Draven Marino Garm
Codename: Camaxtli
Nicknames: Karrl, Cam, The Silver Haired Casanova, The Lord of Searing Flames.
Type: Original
Gender: Male
Species: Mutant
Age: 18
Date of Birth: 22/12
Hometown: Southall, London, England
Current Residence: Xavier School for the Gifted
Loyalty: X-Student
Occupation: Mechanic
Hair Colour: Silver
Eye Colour: Red (Wears Hazel Contacts)
Height: 6ft 2”
Weight: 210lbs
Body Type: Due to the fact he has trained as a martial artist from a young age, plus his love of weight lifting his is a buffy guy. His build is something some bodybuilders have spent all of the life trying to achieve, because it is muscular but not overly so
Typical Style: Camaxtli’s style of dress is similar to the ninety’s Grunger. His upper body’s clothing is more punk then grunge but still similar. His usual top is a skin-tight tank-top, black in colour. He also wears a pair of short spiked cuffs and a pair of fingerless, black, leather gloves. To top it all off he wears a pendant with the lion on it to symbolise both his strength and courage as well as his loyalty to his birth country of England. There is also a long, flowing, leather, trench-coat he wears as well which reaches his ankles. On the lower half he wears a pair of stonewashed, dark blue, demin jeans. He also wears a pair of black boots.
Distinguishing Features: N/A
Physical Mutations: His hair is pure silver. Out of direct sunlight it looks more grey then silver but when it is hit by sunlight is shines like perfectly polished silver. His hair is very long and reaches his lower back and is usually tied up into a braid. Behind the hazel contacts are his true eyes. They are red and nothing else. They have nothing to them other than the red, there is no pupil or iris. The red itself is a deep crimson, which would seem cold other than the fact that it glows. The more intense Karrl’s emotions are the stronger the glowing of the red becomes to the point of it seeming that his eyes are made of fire themselves.
Uniform: his young man’s costume was inspired by his father’s favourite movie, the crow. His upper body is covered in a sleeveless, black, leather top. The top itself is quite basic in design with a high raised neck covering not only his chest but his neck as well. Then there is his gloves, he got the idea from the crow but put a spin on it. Taking the design of lady’s evening gloves he used that design and made them leather. He also made them semi-fingerless, with the gloves fingers being removed from the top half of his fingers and completely removed from the thumbs. The gloves themselves reach to just below the elbow. He also wears a basic looking trench-coat, which reaches down to his ankles. His lower half is covered in a pair of trousers, which have the same simple design of the top, no thrills, not extras, just a basic pair of trousers. There is also a pair of black, ankle boots. The boots themselves are steel-toe-capped. To mask his appearance there is not much in that way, just a simple black mask, covering his mouth and the lower part of his nose tied up at the back with a lace. His contacts have been taken out as well so his true eyes can be seen. The suit martial was once leather, however, during his time at the Institute they have been replaced with durable, highly heat resistant materials due to his close quarters style of fighting as well as his pyrokinetic powers.
Personality: Likes: Karrl first love in life are cars and bikes. The truth is, he loves bikes more than car, his favourite bike being the Yamaha YZF R1. Growing up the way he did, there is little wonder, why he loves bikes, more so their engines. Due to his personality he loves extreme sports. He loves to snowboard and skateboard. He is pretty good at them both, not to the point where he could a pro, but he could succeed in the amateur rankings of the sports. One of his more mundane likes in the world is football (soccer to the Americans out there) his team is Chelsea, which does bring an intense rivalry between him and his father during the European cup, since his team is Beyer Munich. Since he was a young lad he has loved this, martial arts, he has not loved it as long as bikes, but he has loved it from a very young age. He is a typical teenager, and because of this he loves to party, he loves the fairer sex and he loves a good smoke with his beer and birds.
Dislikes: He is a slightly arrogant person, well, a very confident person, and because of this he hates people who doubt themselves. He may mainly concern himself with his own problems, but, if he sees someone, who has not annoyed him in any way, with a crisis of confidence he will try his best to help them out, because he cannot stand self-doubt, in himself or anyone else. Another thing he cannot stand is discrimination. Being brought up in an area like Southall he has been the subject of discrimination and racism. Due to this if he sees anyone treating people badly due to their difference like their race, colour, creed, or, since he has become a mutant, species. Due to his personality he has a kind of mundane dislike and that is being bored. He has to almost always be doing something, the only time he is not active is when he is sleeping, or, when he has to, do his school work.
Overall Personality: This young man is a complicated one By most standards he is quite laid back, and will not give a second thought to just chilling under a tree somewhere with his guitar and a note pad tree somewhere with his guitar and a note pad. But there is also another side to him, and this side can come out in the most random of situations, two words, Adrenalin Junky. But there is also another side to him, and this side But there is also another side to him, and this side can come out in the most random of situations, two words, Adrenalin Junky. He loves the thrill of doing something daring to the borderline point of crazy. He has been asked on a number of occasions, after doing some of these things, if he had a death wish, and his response was always the same, what’s the point in living without taking a few risks.
That pretty much sums up Karrl, but there is a third side to him which will come out now and again. The third side he has is the side of a philosopher When the mood takes him he can be a very deep and meaningful person, and when the time is right he might come out with a saying or two which would make most people stop to think about it. To put it simply, and in words Karrl has said before he can go from a scatterbrain to a philosopher in philosopher in 0.5 seconds.
Family: Vincent Garm (Father) Isabella Garm (Mother) Damien Valentine (Younger Half Brother / Never Met) Gareth Greaves (Son: 4)
History: Before he was even born his life was complicated, his parents moved to an Indian and Somailian controlled area, when they were not even of either heritage. His mother was half Italian and half Spanish, whilst his father was half German and half English. So even before the spark of life in his was made he was going to have it rough.
He was born, and spent a good part of his life in a place called Southall, a small, but extremely rough area of Middlesex, London. His mother died giving birth to him, so he never knew her, and when he asked his father about her he rarely gave a straight answer.
His father supported them both, on his job as a motor mechanic, and Karrl pretty much grew up around engines, and because of this he learnt how to fix and build them. He was never as good as his father, but Karrl still knows his way around the bonnet of a car. At the age of thirteen he began to work for his father dealing with things, and learning more and more about bikes and cars.
Growing up he spoke English as his first language, but because of his father growing up in Saarlouis, Saarland, Germany, he also speaks German. He did not use it outside of his family home, but he was and still is fluent in the Germanic Tongue.
He went to Primary School in Southall in the RC (Roman Catholic) School of Saint Anselm’s. Because of his mixed heritage he was bullied from the get go. He tolerated this, because it was simple name calling, and as the old saying goes, sticks and stones may break bone but words will never hurt.
But that soon changed when he hit seven. Two years into Primary School and the name calling turn to regular beatings from the older students. When his father found out, he told his son he would be sending him to learn martial arts, to help defend himself, but Karrl got to pick. After a lot of thought he picked Muay Thai.
He learnt quickly, but did not use it unless he had to defend himself, as his master taught him. But because of this not many of the students would pick fights with him anymore and by his last year of Primary School the bullying stopped altogether. Which was a relief for Karrl, but he still continued with Muay Thai, simply because he loved it so.
When he was eleven and was old enough, by English Educational rules, to join Secondary School he went to a place called Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School. He got in because of his good grades, plus the fact his father was a constant help at Saint Anselm’s Church, which more then likely contributed just as much as Karrl’s grades. It was also at this time that he decided to pick up another martial art, Judo.
The first two years were actually quite nice, since the fact his heritage did not come into play here, since The Vaughan, as it is called, is in Holland Park, and not Southall. He gained a few friends in those years, and they enjoyed playing together. Karrl kept up with his good grades, and was learning quite a few new languages, including, French and Spanish. He also started to learn how to play the guitar because of his music classes.
But when he hit puberty at the age of thirteen instead of gaining a dodgy moustache he gained silver hair and red eyes. This freaked him out, and he ran straight to his father. Wayne, his father pulled him out of school for a few days trying to dye his hair, but it would not change, and to cover his eye he bought a Hazel contact lens for Karrl. Seeing that he could not do much for the hair he spoke to the school and told them due to a server deficiency of cobalamin his hair had gone grey.
When he went back to The Vaughn there was a class assembly about it, his friends did not mind, but the older students picked on him about out, and once again, the fighting commenced, but by then he was skilled in both Muay Thai and Judo so was able to handle himself against any who wished to hurt him.
At the age of thirteen he had started to date a girl and he was fourteen when they took there relationship to the next level. It seemed like it was going very well and Karrl believed that he was in love with this girl, this Rebecca Greaves. A month or two after something happened, she was taken out of the Vaughn and without a word she left, she didn’t even leave him a letter. After trying time and time again to find a way to contact her he finally gave up. Not even to this day does Karrl know the reason why she was taken out of the school. That reason was Rebecca was pregnant with Karrl’s child, who is now four.
At fourteen with seven years of Muay Tai experience and four years of Judo under his belt he decided to try his hand at something, he entered the British Under 18 Mix Martial Artist Tournament, and he actually won. He did this one more time at the age of 15 but lost, at the age of 16 he tried one more time and won for the second time. At the age of 17 he entered the European championships and won that, but he did not enter another one since he was too old for it the next year along.
He was fifteen and something happened that day that changed his social standing in the school. One of the few people who still picked fights with Karrl got a lucky punch in, straight across the side of his face, knocking out his contact lens, revealing his red eye. With that punch he had lost all but one of his friends, and even she did not openly hang out with him. The students hated and feared him, but the school itself would not expel him, for two reasons, the press, and the fact he was one of their top pupils.
Sixteen and he had finished his GCSEs, all eight of them in fact, taking, German, French, Spanish, Mathematics, English, Information Communication Technology, Modular Science and Music. He was finished for the year and was getting ready to go on to Six Form, which is the next stage of learning when a student hits sixteen.
He was on his way home; he was quite excited because his father had said they were going on a trip to his homeland. It was the first time he was going to go abroad, and couldn’t wait, but on his way home something happened that would change his life. He was confronted by the last three people who picked fights with him. After a quick scrap it would have been finished, But something happened, all the anger, all the hate, every negative emotion he had bottled up inside of him exploded with this punch and a ball of flames came from his hand, burning the young man’s face to a crispy critter.
Karrl eyes widened as the impact caught him off balance and sent him flying back, crashing into a wall. The last thing he could remember was everyone running screaming shouting the word mutant. Through all the commotion there was one figure that came towards him and as the figure bent down Karrl blacked out.
When he woke up he was in his bedroom, confused he looked around blinking, he had no idea how he had gotten into his bed, as far as he was aware he hadn’t been drinking. As he slowly got up the memories of what had happened came back to him. It was at that time that the door opened and his father walked in. His father switched on the light, which he was confused about, because has seemed like the light had already been on, little did Karrl know that the reasons behind it was his secondary power. After a few seconds of silence, his father told him to meet him in the kitchen when he was ready.
About ten minutes afters that he met his father in the kitchen, and they talked, a number of things were revealed about his family background. First of all, was about his mother, she was, like Karrl, a mutant, a former member of a group called the Brotherhood. Then there was his father, he was also a mutant, and had been a student at a school in America called the Xavier Institute for the Gifted. There was also one last thing he had learnt, about his father’s side of the family, and that was in fact that Karrl was the twelfth generation of Garm to have mutant abilities. This shocked Karrl to no end, but, after a short amount of time and a couple of shots of whisky he came to terms with it.
After they had talked his father offered him a chance, a chance his mother also wished for him, it was in fact her dying wish for it to come true, he offered his son the chance to go to the same institute that he had. It did not take much time to think, wanting to hold up such a long line of mutants in the Garms, as well as fulfilling the only thing his mother had ever wished for him to do, as far as he was aware, he agreed to it, and after an international phone call he was getting ready to go. In fact he was on the plane to New York City that very night, because his father wanted him out of the country before the fallout could happen from what Karrl had done. That was two years ago.
Over the two years he has been at the Institute, he had learnt how to skilfully use his powers, as well as received a high level of education, he focused on motor mechanics, because, even though he knew as much as the average mechanic he needed the qualifications if he wanted to get a job. However, over those two years he not only evolved educational but emotionally. When he first got there he didn’t get along with most of the other student and most of the teachers as well, he thought it was them but, when someone he thought was his friend set him straight, he realised it was him that was being the ass. Current he has matured quite a bit since the early days when he called himself the Lord of Searing Flames.
However, over the two years that Karrl has been at the Institute there is one figure in particular that stands out above everyone else and that is the person the put as his mentor, Miss Jean Grey. Over the two years she has always been a constant source of comfort and support for the young pyro, she even guided him in coming to terms with the people he killed the day his powers awoke. Needless to say Karrl cares for her dearly, and sees her like an older sister.
However, from time to time he wonders if there could be anything more that could come of their student, mentor relationship. However, as soon as these thoughts come to mind he shakes them off because, even if he did care for her in that way there was no chance anything could come of it. He was a student and she was a Professor, and despite his good looks and charisma, he knew he could not break the boundary, not with her.
When the Mutant Registration Act came in he knew what he wanted to do before anyone even asked him, and he told anyone that did ask, that he wanted to take the act roll it up into a nice sharp points, sprinkle it with lemon juice and shove it in the eye of whatever bastard thought it was a good idea to sign up. There were two reactions to this, a chuckle or just a completely shocked expression. He has just turned eighteen.
Classification: Alpha
Powers: His main power is Pyrokinesis, but it is not normal. For one thing, unlike most pyros he could manifest flames as well as control them. There is one drawback to it, he can only summon flames from his hands and forearms. Even though he can only do this his natural ability with it is good. Not only can he summon them but he can send it as projectile mainly in the form of a fireball. However he usually works his Pyrokinesis as an extension of his martial arts send out snaps and short bursts of flames from his fists. His flames are not normal as well. They are normal in the fact they burning and are made of what fire is made of, but because of the intense emotions that awoke this power it effected the colour of the flames. So instead of the usual orange colour they have the flames are an intense red. Even though it is strong, the impact against armour stuff is minimal, and because of this, it take a lot more effort for him to melt through things, which are stronger or tougher than three inches of steel. He also has a high resistance to fire, not just his own, but other flames as well. If he was to walk into a burning building he would probably say that it was a little warm. However, he could not survive in the earth’s core, or the sun, and he could probably last about an hour in a volcano before it started to actually physically affect him.
His second power is to do with his eyes. He has gained the ability to see in the infrared / heat spectrum. When he is on a night mission he can switch his sight from normal to this mode to aid him in spotting a potential problem when it comes to getting past people, or sneaking up on them for a quick, clean, knockout blow. Alongside this he can see certain things that normal eye could never see without aid, and that is things like security lasers and various other things that are hidden and can only be seen through infrared. Also due to this, he has a slight ability to see through solid objects, however this only works when spotting heat signatures in the other room or behind any solid object.
Skills: Karrl has a number of skill to his name, the first of them is his eleven years of experience when it comes to Muay Tai and eight years in Judo, this means he is skilled in close combat being able to use his fists, feet, elbows and knees effectively as well as grappling and throwing moves. Cam is also multi lingual, able to knees effectively. He is also multi lingual, able to speak, German, French and Spanish. He has an above average understanding of both bikes and cars, due to his father. Finally he is also skilled with a guitar, and has quite a nice voice, sounding a bit like the lead singer of the Goo Goo Doll mixed with Alice Cooper, slight strange, but in a good way.
Weaponry: N/A
Role Play Sample: Karrl had a big problem, and he only knew one way to solve it, get a job. The money his father had given him to help him get settled in New York, more so the Xavier Institute, was draining faster than a glass of whiskey when put in Karrl’s hands. Unfortunately his main profession, mechanic, well, he couldn’t find a mechanic job for love nor money. So, as he drove along the streets thinking about what he was skilled at, and he something to back it up, there was two things that came to mind, his skill with languages and his skill with his fists.
All of a sudden he glanced a sign in a window reading bouncers wanted, and he smiled, that was a job he could do. Even though he did not fancy standing out in front of somewhere come rain or shine he had to stop being so fussy and take what he could get. So with this in mind he turned around and parked up. As he got of his bike, his attire could be viewed better, his upper half was covered in a black, skin-tight, tank-top, and a leather trench-coat with a pair of fingerless, leather gloves. His lower half was covered in a pair of plain jeans and a pair of DM boots. He smiled before running his hands through his hair and walking up to the front door.
As he went to enter a massive hand started to press against his chest. Karrl looked around and saw a guy there, he was about an inches shorter than him, but easily had fifty pounds on him, however it seemed, unlike Karrl, to consist mainly of fat. The portly bouncer pointed upwards to a sign, no id, no entry. Karrl smiled and pointed to the bouncers wanted sign. A brief moment passed before the bouncer removed his and signalled for him to go in, Karrl nodded and walked in. What he saw next made him smile even more; it was a strip-club. Karrl removed his sunglasses and said, “Now this is my kind of place.”

The students hated and feared him, but the school itself would not expel him, for two reasons, the press, and the fact he was one of their top pupils.
Sixteen and he had finished his GCSEs, all eight of them in fact, taking, German, French, Spanish, Mathematics, English, Information Communication Technology, Modular Science and Music. He was finished for the year and was getting ready to go on to Six Form, which is the next stage of learning when a student hits sixteen.
He was on his way home; he was quite excited because his father had said they were going on a trip to his homeland. It was the first time he was going to go abroad, and couldn’t wait, but on his way home something happened that would change his life. He was confronted by the last three people who picked fights with him. After a quick scrap it would have been finished, But something happened, all the anger, all the hate, every negative emotion he had bottled up inside of him exploded with this punch and a ball of flames came from his hand, burning the young man’s face to a crispy critter.
Karrl eyes widened as the impact caught him off balance and sent him flying back, crashing into a wall. The last thing he could remember was everyone running screaming shouting the word mutant. Through all the commotion there was one figure that came towards him and as the figure bent down Karrl blacked out.
When he woke up he was in his bedroom, confused he looked around blinking, he had no idea how he had gotten into his bed, as far as he was aware he hadn’t been drinking. As he slowly got up the memories of what had happened came back to him. It was at that time that the door opened and his father walked in. His father switched on the light, which he was confused about, because has seemed like the light had already been on, little did Karrl know that the reasons behind it was his secondary power. After a few seconds of silence, his father told him to meet him in the kitchen when he was ready.
About ten minutes afters that he met his father in the kitchen, and they talked, a number of things were revealed about his family background. First of all, was about his mother, she was, like Karrl, a mutant, a former member of a group called the Brotherhood. Then there was his father, he was also a mutant, and had been a student at a school in America called the Xavier Institute for the Gifted. There was also one last thing he had learnt, about his father’s side of the family, and that was in fact that Karrl was the twelfth generation of Garm to have mutant abilities. This shocked Karrl to no end, but, after a short amount of time and a couple of shots of whisky he came to terms with it.
After they had talked his father offered him a chance, a chance his mother also wished for him, it was in fact her dying wish for it to come true, he offered his son the chance to go to the same institute that he had. It did not take much time to think, wanting to hold up such a long line of mutants in the Garms, as well as fulfilling the only thing his mother had ever wished for him to do, as far as he was aware, he agreed to it, and after an international phone call he was getting ready to go. In fact he was on the plane to New York City that very night, because his father wanted him out of the country before the fallout could happen from what Karrl had done. That was two years ago.
Over the two years he has been at the Institute, he had learnt how to skilfully use his powers, as well as received a high level of education, he focused on motor mechanics, because, even though he knew as much as the average mechanic he needed the qualifications if he wanted to get a job. However, over those two years he not only evolved educational but emotionally. When he first got there he didn’t get along with most of the other student and most of the teachers as well, he thought it was them but, when someone he thought was his friend set him straight, he realised it was him that was being the ass. Current he has matured quite a bit since the early days when he called himself the Lord of Searing Flames.
However, over the two years that Karrl has been at the Institute there is one figure in particular that stands out above everyone else and that is the person the put as his mentor, Miss Jean Grey. Over the two years she has always been a constant source of comfort and support for the young pyro, she even guided him in coming to terms with the people he killed the day his powers awoke. Needless to say Karrl cares for her dearly, and sees her like an older sister.
However, from time to time he wonders if there could be anything more that could come of their student, mentor relationship. However, as soon as these thoughts come to mind he shakes them off because, even if he did care for her in that way there was no chance anything could come of it. He was a student and she was a Professor, and despite his good looks and charisma, he knew he could not break the boundary, not with her.
When the Mutant Registration Act came in he knew what he wanted to do before anyone even asked him, and he told anyone that did ask, that he wanted to take the act roll it up into a nice sharp points, sprinkle it with lemon juice and shove it in the eye of whatever bastard thought it was a good idea to sign up. There were two reactions to this, a chuckle or just a completely shocked expression. He has just turned eighteen.
Classification: Alpha
Powers: His main power is Pyrokinesis, but it is not normal. For one thing, unlike most pyros he could manifest flames as well as control them. There is one drawback to it, he can only summon flames from his hands and forearms. Even though he can only do this his natural ability with it is good. Not only can he summon them but he can send it as projectile mainly in the form of a fireball. However he usually works his Pyrokinesis as an extension of his martial arts send out snaps and short bursts of flames from his fists. His flames are not normal as well. They are normal in the fact they burning and are made of what fire is made of, but because of the intense emotions that awoke this power it effected the colour of the flames. So instead of the usual orange colour they have the flames are an intense red. Even though it is strong, the impact against armour stuff is minimal, and because of this, it take a lot more effort for him to melt through things, which are stronger or tougher than three inches of steel. He also has a high resistance to fire, not just his own, but other flames as well. If he was to walk into a burning building he would probably say that it was a little warm. However, he could not survive in the earth’s core, or the sun, and he could probably last about an hour in a volcano before it started to actually physically affect him.
His second power is to do with his eyes. He has gained the ability to see in the infrared / heat spectrum. When he is on a night mission he can switch his sight from normal to this mode to aid him in spotting a potential problem when it comes to getting past people, or sneaking up on them for a quick, clean, knockout blow. Alongside this he can see certain things that normal eye could never see without aid, and that is things like security lasers and various other things that are hidden and can only be seen through infrared. Also due to this, he has a slight ability to see through solid objects, however this only works when spotting heat signatures in the other room or behind any solid object.
Skills: Karrl has a number of skill to his name, the first of them is his eleven years of experience when it comes to Muay Tai and eight years in Judo, this means he is skilled in close combat being able to use his fists, feet, elbows and knees effectively as well as grappling and throwing moves. Cam is also multi lingual, able to knees effectively. He is also multi lingual, able to speak, German, French and Spanish. He has an above average understanding of both bikes and cars, due to his father. Finally he is also skilled with a guitar, and has quite a nice voice, sounding a bit like the lead singer of the Goo Goo Doll mixed with Alice Cooper, slight strange, but in a good way.
Weaponry: N/A
Role Play Sample: Karrl had a big problem, and he only knew one way to solve it, get a job. The money his father had given him to help him get settled in New York, more so the Xavier Institute, was draining faster than a glass of whiskey when put in Karrl’s hands. Unfortunately his main profession, mechanic, well, he couldn’t find a mechanic job for love nor money. So, as he drove along the streets thinking about what he was skilled at, and he something to back it up, there was two things that came to mind, his skill with languages and his skill with his fists.
All of a sudden he glanced a sign in a window reading bouncers wanted, and he smiled, that was a job he could do. Even though he did not fancy standing out in front of somewhere come rain or shine he had to stop being so fussy and take what he could get. So with this in mind he turned around and parked up. As he got of his bike, his attire could be viewed better, his upper half was covered in a black, skin-tight, tank-top, and a leather trench-coat with a pair of fingerless, leather gloves. His lower half was covered in a pair of plain jeans and a pair of DM boots. He smiled before running his hands through his hair and walking up to the front door.
As he went to enter a massive hand started to press against his chest. Karrl looked around and saw a guy there, he was about an inches shorter than him, but easily had fifty pounds on him, however it seemed, unlike Karrl, to consist mainly of fat. The portly bouncer pointed upwards to a sign, no id, no entry. Karrl smiled and pointed to the bouncers wanted sign. A brief moment passed before the bouncer removed his and signalled for him to go in, Karrl nodded and walked in. What he saw next made him smile even more; it was a strip-club. Karrl removed his sunglasses and said, “Now this is my kind of place.”
