Hey all, it's Anne (Tandy/Dagger) here to say that I decided to pick up Betsy Braddock, aka Psylocke!

Straight from England, Betsy is a former model forced to retire and embrace her powers due to an injury that left her blind. Said injury also resulted during the same battle that killed her lover, so she's got a bit of trauma in her life, but after the initial shock of going somewhere new without her family (with whom she is very close) and without her sight she'll be looking for plenty of people to talk with, though it might take awhile to overcome those trust issues she has.

Also, she's another psychic, and an empath at that, so careful of your emotions around her (I'm looking at you, Remy!) since it's hard to keep a secret from her. Her control is lacking, but that just means she senses everything- and often gets sick as a result.

Also, to my fellow Brit... she'll find you, don't worry. XD

So, enough of the details (unless you want more, in which case you can check out her profile here.) I look forward to meeting everyone as Miss Betsy!

They WERE love intersts at one point, yes! So we could definitely play around with a flirtation there and see where it goes. He may look up some of her past shoots after he meets her and will definitely get a 'guardian angel' complex because of her vision impairment.

Needless to say, Bobby will be overly nice to her and be smiling the whole time they're talking.

Sam is definitely a family man and is having problems there right now, so if Betsy ever needs to talk? Sam's ear is always open. They're big ears.

Sofia is going to give Betsy such a headache. And then get very emotional if she found out what she was doing to the older girl, thus making it worse.

Rahne and Betsy could probably get very close these first few weeks. She's not going anywhere either so they can talk about people and life in general. Every time Betsy meets someone, she can come back for Rahne's horribly butchered, lying, supportive opinion. "Och, yes. Magneto is a wonderful person... >_>"

Emma definitely is a frightening person, even mentally. She's always up to something and horribly guarded.

All of this should be fun! If you ever want to throw up a thread, feel free. I'd actually kind of love to do a Betsy/Rahne/Sam log with him coming over to give Betsy a tour and Rahne fawning all over him until they leave. Two introductions for Betsy with one stone, too.

	Ohhh, I fully support this plan. And with her empathy... I'm sure Betsy is going to pick up on that fawning mighty quickly. ;D (Reply to this) (Parent)
