Name: Eugene Brown
Age: 24
Birthday: May 28th
Appearance: http://cache.desktopnexus.com/thumbseg/436/436944-bigthumbnail.jpg
Mutant Ability: He has a highly advanced brain capable of learning almost anything at a advanced rate. He has improved reaction time which makes it seem as if the world slows around him but it doesn't and of course he's highly intelligent.
Control Level: He has complete mastery of his powers.
Weaknesses: However if he has to actively use them, kind of like switch them on, and if he does this too often or uses them too long he begins to have massive migraines. To the point of losing all of his senses if held for too long and becoming incapacitated with the pain. The longest he's ever held in what he calls 'reaction time' is fifteen seconds before he lost his sight. He is also weaker than the average man.
Talents: Eugene is a master marksman with his Winchester rifle. Because of his intelligence he can do all the calculations required to make any shot quickly and then fire his weapon. He's also decent in hand to hand fighting due to knowledge of the human anatomy and reflexes, but can be easily over powered.
Fears: Watching those he cares for die.
Occupation: Bounty Hunter
Personality: At first Eugene comes across as cold and uncaring. Which isn't far from the truth. He doesn't care who he hunts down and is in it for the money. The only people who have seen that he has a soft side are those who work in the saloon. He will die to defend those he cares about, but dying isn't going to be in his top ten plans.
*Background: Eugene was the son of a tavern girl who fell for a wandering cowboy. Because he didn't have a father around and his mother didn't have anywhere else to go, the tavern owner at the time let him stay and his mother keep his job. As he grew, he became popular with the visitors to the saloon. He was even given a small allowance by the owner for helping with everyday chores. One day a gun fight erupted in the saloon and Eugene watched his mother get shot. It was at that point that his powers awoke and he grabbed a pistol and after firing it once was able to hold it correctly and killed all but one of the gunmen who manage to escape. Since then he's made the tavern his home base and has gone out searching for bounties hoping to find the man who killed his mother. More than once he's helped protect the tavern that he calls home.
Other: He prefers to use his trusty Winchester rifle but also carries a Colt revolver and a small knife.

[Deserving Child]

Name: Jackul Stevens.
Nickname: Goes by Ruby, or at least attempts to.
Age: 23.
Birthday: April 13th.
Appearance: Jackul has maroon hair with bangs swooping across his forehead. It is shoulder length in all other areas. Very thin stubble across his jaw. Angular/sharp facial features. Nearly flawless (though slightly tanned) skin. Jackul is a well sized man. Maybe a bit thin for his height at 6’4, 200 pounds. Firm muscles are hidden underneath a thin mesh shirt and a slightly tattered black coat. No gloves, but his hands are tightly wrapped at almost all times underneath some boxers tape.

Mutant Ability: Fists as strong as most gemstones, as well as a set of instincts animal like in nature. He has the ability to sense danger, to a degree.

Control Level: He is trained with his fists and can use them well. With them he can block all blades, and even a bullet or two if he’s lucky.

Weaknesses: The animal like instincts come with a price. In times of very heavy stress he will occasionally regress into a very primal state. In essence, he takes on the personality of a wounded animal. Outside of that, though trained with his fists, a human is still not meant to have fists as heavy as his. Fatigue is a sincere concern.

Talents: Free running (or parkour as the kids call it). Acrobatics. Training in Hu Quan (Tiger style Kung Fu). Stitching and basic medical skills. High pain tolerance and an inherent understanding of where to hit someone and how to make it hurt.
Fears: His mother, wolves, and his own temper.
Occupation: Drifter.
Personality: Ruby is a bit of a hot head. His temper has a tendency to get him into trouble, and so does his personality. He’s a jokester at heart, as long as he is in a proper state. He’s a fairly intelligent man, even if he chooses not to show it.

Background: Ruby was not as lucky as some mutants. He was born with a very obvious physical deformity, and one that was fairly useless without a proper training. It also didn’t help that his family environment was...Unhealthy, for lack of a better term. From the young age of 6, Jackul fell victim to horrible amounts of domestic abuse. The beatings of his mother were far worse than those from his father, but that doesn’t change the fact that they were both very painful. Jackul always knew when the beatings were to come, but for some reason he would just lock up. He would panic and become incapable of rational thought. He would remove his shirt and lay on his stomach, waiting for the beating to begin.

This would happen every day, until it actually became too much for Jackul. This was on the day of Jackul’s 15th birthday. The sound of his mother in the other room, chatting away with her “Business associates”, the mournful look on his father's face, the beating itself. It was all too much to take, and something in him snapped. Jackul thought he had simply blacked
out from the pain, as the beating had been rather savage that day. When Jackul surveyed the room he noticed a set of feet on the other side of his bed. He began to slide over to the other side of his bed and immediately regretted it. His father's body was lying on the ground, and his jaw was torn from his face.

Jackul, assuming he would be blamed for the crime which he didn’t believe he had committed, left out his window with nothing but the clothes on his back, knowing immediately that he was never to return to his childhood home. It wasn’t long before he realized how good it felt to be able to speak freely and act however he wished. He survived for months off of nothing but the food he could steal and the clean water he could find. He did this until he made the mistake of attempting to steal from a group of Chinese men, who were here on “Business”. They took him under their wing when they caught him, and one of them, Sho Fumiya, actually discovered and explained to him the strange sense of danger and the blackouts. He referred to him as the son of the tiger from then on, and took him as an apprentice.

Sho Fumiya taught him the ancient art of Hu Quan, better known as tiger style Kung Fu. He took every message to heart and has become a very strong man, with an even stronger weapon built onto his body. After mastering the style he was soon exiled from the group for getting in a fight with a man who insulted him for his hands. Ever since that day he has travelled the lands, looking for work where ever he can and trying to survive, before he gets exiled from yet another town.
