Hi, guys! My name is Callirhoe and I have an addiction to picking up new characters, apparently. I AM SORRY. This is my last kid here, though, I swear, and you can hit me if I look like I'm about to break that promise. :)
So, this is Jean-Paul Beaubier. I know that he was played before, but since my version of him is very different from the previous one, I think it's probably best to handwave that and start fresh. He'll be brand new at the school, as of... tonight, actually, I think, since that makes sense, and I'll be putting up an intro narrative for anyone who wants to meet the new kid. :) In brief, though, he's 19, a college student, and from Québec, Canada (though he will give you the evil eye if you say he's Canadian, because he is a fervent Québec separatist and doesn't consider his homeland part of Canada). If your character follows winter sports, they've probably heard of Jean-Paul -- he was a junior world champion for two years, qualified for this year's Olympic Games and had a lot of international buzz about being the one to beat in his events -- but just after qualifying he caused a scandal by announcing that he was ending his skiing career in order to pursue his education. He then disappeared (which, let's face it, is a whole lot easier when you can run ten times faster than anyone around you) and has spent the past several months training with the Canadian superhero Guardian, and has now come to Xavier's to continue his training.
His number one character trait is arrogance, followed closely by cynicism. But all that aside, he's actually a pretty interesting person to hang around, and he's fairly okay at being social. He's gay, which hasn't been publicized in the media but which he has no problem with people around him knowing, so I'm sure that will come out (NO PUN INTENDED) fairly quickly. Um, other than that, idk. Let me know if you have thoughts and stuff. :)
