Motivation, and Why:
Daytona really wants to be able to complete school in a place where she won’t be judged for being a mutant. She would also prefer not to hide her abilities either.
Loyalty:
X-student
Physical Appearance:
Daytona is a scrawny, small girl built like a twig who runs a lot of track and field. She tends to cycle through t-shirts and hoodies throughout most of the year. She normally only wears running shoes, but there may be a pair of heels hiding in her closet for special occasions. Her brown hair is cut short and many times cover her blue eyes and youthful face. Her complexion is quite fair.
History:
Daytona grew up in a small town Indiana, born to Judy and Douglas Hodges with a caul on her head. However, Judy was Judy Bell at the time, as the two didn’t get married until after her birth. She isn’t sure whether the caul part is true, but it something that her parents always told her when she’s feeling down about herself.
Her early childhood was nothing too extraordinary. She grew up like most children, played the same games as more children, went to the same kind of schools as most children. In fact, up until the age 7 or so, she could be described as living an incredibly average life. At age 7 is when she discovered her mutant powers. Douglas was headed on a trip to visit her uncle Bryan in North Carolina for a week. She didn’t really want to see her father go, particularly since he promised to take her into Indianapolis to see the zoo, so she ran after his car. It was cute until they realized that she was actually keeping up with it.
From then on, Daytona was asked to hide her powers. Her parents seemed very serious about the whole thing, and Daytona didn’t really understand at the time. In truth, the family didn’t know any mutants in the whole county, and weren’t sure how others would react to this kind of thing. Daytona would use her powers in secret though, pushing to see how fast she could go.
She didn’t really have any issues until she was about 14 or so. She can recall the situation perfectly. She was walking home from school along the side of the road, and she was watching an opossum crossing the street. At the same time, some other students where barreling down the road, not really paying much attention. In hindsight, maybe she should have watched the animal go splat, but instead she whizzed by, grabbed the animal, and got it to the otherside. And of course, it freaked the hell out of the people in the car. To make matters worse, the opossum bit her, and she had to get a bunch of rabies shots. School got tense after that. People would tease her, try to get her to use her powers when she didn’t want, steal her things.
The Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters seemed like a safe haven of sorts. She’s never been to the East Coast before, so New York is very new to her as well. Hopefully, it’s everything she needs right now.
RP Sample:
Daytona holds her backpack tight and walks along the right wall as she leaves. She slouches as if to make herself seem even smaller, unnoticeable. However, she is spotted as she always is. There really is no avoiding it. Hands grab hold of her backpack as they try to wrestle it away from her.
“Yo, Nascar, come on show us!”
“Get off my backpack,” she growls, tugging on her backpack and taking a look at who is bothering her now. She doesn’t know this one. He must have just heard about her or something. The tussle is getting some attention.
“All I’m asking for is to see you run!”
“And I don’t feel like it. Leave me alone, a**hole.” But he keeps following her. God, why wouldn’t he just go away.
“Mutant should watch her mouth.” Now, she really wants to leave. Doors, she is almost there. She picks up speed, but nothing superhuman yet.
“Hey, I’m talking to you,” he yells at her. Doors. As soon as her hand reaches the handle, she bolts. In a blink, she is home. She sits down on the porch with her head in hands, catching her breath.
