Amy "Aurora" Myers

Name: Amy Myers
Codename: Aurora
Age: 18
Country of Origin: US of A
Hometown: Seattle
Powers:
Amy's body is brimming with energy that manifests itself in two ways. She can discharge the energy as bright white beams that emanate from her hands or fingers. They increase in intensity the more energy she focuses into them, ranging from narrow beams that set paper on fire after a couple moments to huge beams that leave gouges in walls. It takes effort and control to dial them down while dialing them up comes easy but takes a heavy toll in that it quickly exhausts her to the point of being harmful to her.
She can also channel the energy through herself to fly, which causes her to emit a faint glow. Just like the beams it takes focus and willpower to not go zooming off haphazardly while increasing speed quickly exhausts her the faster she goes. This also gives her a minor boost in toughness and resilience to being hurt.
Personality:
Amy is a mousy young woman who tends to appear a little shy and guarded in how she holds herself. She's easy to fluster and often a bit nervous, especially in larger groups she tends to stick to the sidelines. She can have bit of a temper when pushed and she's concerned about it to the point of keeping a lid on it fairly successfully.
Description:
Amy is of average height and has relatively unremarkable brown hair. Occasionally her eyes betray her mutation, although usually they only glow when she's significantly channeling her power. She's not very flashy and tends to not wear a lot of makeup. Her clothes tend to be unremarkable and almost boring at times.
Background:
Amy had never been one of the popular girls, but for the most part she'd been okay with that. She had a small group of friends and that was just fine with her. Unfortunately, when she was 15 she began to notice that something about her was different. She felt like she had a live wire running through her body and felt increasingly on edge. Even one of her friends confiding in her that he was a mutant did little to convince her to mention her concerns to anybody. Until one day on her way home from school it reached a breaking point. She'd realized she probably was a mutant as well and the thought scared her. Unable to contain the energy coursing through her she did the only sensible thing she could think of and ran. She only made it a couple steps before her mutation manifested itself in full and flung her into the air in a bright flash of energy. She only remembers waking up in the forest in a clearing of her own making, smoldering and shattered remains of trees all around her with her friend Vinny standing at the edge of the devastation.
Terrified of being found out she did her best to hide her power from everybody else. As a result she became increasingly fidgety and withdrawn, losing most of her friends in the process except for Vinny, who encouraged her to at least try and experiment with her power. The two helped each other learn how to better control their mutations, though she never quite got comfortable with hers.Eventually things came to a head when her control slipped during one of her final exams in high school. Thankfully nobody was injured, but she destroyed several desks and the blackboard, at which point the jig was up. Her parents made her register under the MRA and among the fallout over that decided it'd be best if she went to XU instead of a "regular" college.
