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!

Hello, hello! I always feel somewhat inadequate in these welcome posts with just my lone pup. Sigh. Anyway, YAY, Betsy! I'm both excited for Blind!Betts and for BitchAssNinjaSlut!Betsy a la Regan. Just throwing that out there. lol

John is, as always, pretty "meh" about the whole thing. Then again, there's a nice bonus in that she's hot and blind so she can't see him checking her out, so that's kinda cool, he thinks. But he'll definitely keep his distance, not only because he's just not that much of a social butterfly (ha! See what I did there? Ah...) anyway, but also because he doesn't like telepaths to begin with and he really doesn't like the fact she can't even really control her telepathy.

So that probably wasn't very helpful at all, actually, but there you go, one antisocial jerkwad in a nutshell. :)

	So basically, she's eye candy for him. XD I'm sure she'll pick up on this, but choose to ignore it- she'll probably try and put a positive spin on it by being glad he's staring because he thinks she's attractive and not because she's blind. :P (Reply to this) (Parent)
