Hi! Michelle here with the last Gitter sibling (of the full-sibling Eric/Johnny trio), Shannon. She's the only girl obviously, and the middle child. She's 20, turning 21 next month, and empath. An empath was absolutely no idea how to deal with her powers so that's great. A lot of strong moods and feelings here (or anywhere) have her get really grouchy in a hurry, and she self medicates with... not... pharmacy medication. So that'll be stopping here, anyway, especially when she can learn how to shield some of it.
Her life was just as shitty as Eric's and Johnny's - you know the story by now. Trailer park, abusive father, shitty mother who was just as abusive. A bunch of half-siblings she doesn't know. Creepy, awful boyfriends of her mom leering at her. She left, had some good luck, had some bad luck, and was living in Toronto. Unlike Eric she's kept in touch with Johnny so that's why she knows about Xavier's, and well, she's here.
She's still got the Gitter chip on her shoulder like Johnny does, but she's less outright uh, angry I guess. She prefers way less strong feelings all around due to her powers but then again she causes her own trouble and fights too so that's great. She'll get along with other trash folks more easily, or those that she definitely knows aren't judging her or fucking with her which her powers help her with. She'll be arriving tonight!
