The BasicsName: Michael Anthony Blaise
Nicknames: Mike, but usually goes by Michael
Age: 21
Orientation: Straight
Desired Rank/Job: College Student
Powers: Remote Viewing
Michael has the ability to view images in real-time that are in different locations from himself. All the images he sees take place in the very moment he sees them. He is more likely to see images to events that are physically or emotionally close to him, but there are times where the distance has been up to five miles away from him, but this is extremely rare. Most of the time, his images come at random times without warning, but he can see an image if he focuses extremely hard on the location it is taking place (he has to be very familiar with the location, too). He normally chooses not to use it, because he gets an extremely bad migraine that can sometimes last for days.
Headaches are quite normal for him, and they become more and more sever if he sees more than one image in a day. It also isn't uncommon for him to become disoriented and confused about where he is.

General Appearance:
Michael has always been described as “charmingly goofy” looking. The ears. The chin. The distinct walk. It looks so awkward, yet somehow works for him. For a boy, he’s about average height, standing at six feet exact. Michael can be describe as lanky, for he doesn’t have much meat on his bones. He’s just naturally thin, and isn’t very muscular. He has dark brown hair, which is normally parted towards the very left side with his long-ish bangs slicked over to the side, yet he had recently cut his hair pretty short, so he’s currently sporting a buzzed cut that he’s still trying to decide if he likes or not. He has a very defined face – his jaw is very square and his chin is, well, protruding in a sense.
His sense of style is a little whacky. He likes to mix things up, but often is seen in something that resembles a hipster-punk type look. One day you’ll see him wearing an ugly sweater, the next he’ll be wearing leather pants. Sometimes he’ll wear both at once. He loves wearing dress boots though; you'll hardly see him wearing sneakers. He can be quite dressy when he needs to be, and sports a suit and tie quite nicely when he is interning for college credits.
Personality:
Michael is a bit of a strange boy. He often tries to play the cool act, but in normal life situations, it usually goes terribly, terribly wrong. Yet, at the same time, it adds to his charm. He’s the type that is always willing to go out and have a few beers with his friends. With that said, it’s pretty clear he’s a social butterfly, but he’s also loyal to a fault, especially towards his little sister, Penelope. He has done (and still will do) extremely stupid things for the people he cares about, and doesn’t think about the consequences behind them until they're already happening.
Although he's one of the most laid back members of the Blaise family, he can be quite...British, in the most stereotypical use of the word. Tea. Books. Says sorry more often than needed. Loves football (or what those Americans call soccer). When he's irritated, he's less likely to be upfront about the subject and tends to fall back onto being passive aggressive. He values proper manners and can be a little bit of a control freak when it comes to things he's invested time and energy into.
He loves the single life, having not yet felt the need to try and settle down into anything serious. If anything, he's slightly afraid of the idea. He loves people, but the idea of settling down with one person for life is, to put it frankly, terrifying. Nothing is definitive, in his mind.Your VicesLikes:

Mother: Anna Blaise (43)

Any Other Important People: He is very close with his sister, but nobody else in particular.HistoryMichael was born August 28 in Blackpool, England. As far as he was concerned, his early childhood was pretty normal. He watched cartoons, played with trains, and drew on the walls with crayons. What wasn’t to love? The kid was pretty happy.
When he was three, he walked up to his parents and demanded for a sibling. Fortunately for him, his mother was four months pregnant at the time and the Blaise family had found the perfect way to inform the boy about it. Five months later, he got his wish; Penelope Blaise was the newest member of the family.
Since his sister was born, Michael had taken the roll of big brother a little too seriously. He was more outgoing as a child, and wasn’t afraid to confront anyone who dared mess with his younger, more timid sister. Because of that, they had a strong connection growing up. Still, Michael managed to be quite social, and proudly wore the title of “cool kid” throughout primary school.
This didn’t change much when his father, Jonathan, lost his job in Blackpool, and the Blaise family moved to New York City. Michael was twelve. The move was tough on him because he was forced to leave all of his friends growing up, but his outgoing personality helped gain him a few friends in the States. Life in New York was significantly different in comparison to Blackpool, but Michael had managed to transition between the two pretty smoothly.
At fourteen, his powers manifested. When he was in class, he saw an image of students knocking books out of Penelope’s hands and teasing her. For some reason, the image was so vivid in his mind that he felt compelled enough to leave the middle of class and go find his sister. As it turned out, Penny was being bullied at the time. Michael showed up yelling, and when asked why he left class, he explained what had happened.
The next thing he knew, there was a recruiter sitting on the couch in their living room, explaining to him that he was to go to school at Hammel. If anything, Michael was excited. He was worried to leave his family and sister behind, but the idea of going to a school where people had super powers was exciting.
At Hammel, Michael was your average student. Good enough grades. Healthy social life. As the years at Hammel flew by, Michael started to calm down. He was social, yes, but not quite as outgoing as he had been as a child. He felt like there was no particular reasoning for the change other than becoming more mature.
When he graduated, he went on to the University of Vermont, where he is currently studying Interior Design. Originally, he had decided to go back to school in New York, but when he learned that his sister was also going to attend Hammel (he was a senior at the time) he changed schools to remain closer to her.Roleplay ExampleOnce upon a time, Sai posted a thing and it was cool.What About You?Name: Saiiiii
