Once her powers manifested, Tandy found herself to be more confident and assertive. She's still a nice girl to be around, however.<br/><br/><strong>Hobbies:</strong>Gymnastics, dancing (more for fun)<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Tandy was born to a mother who was a famous, and self-centered, model. Her father left her when she was young, and her mother remarried to a man named Phillip Carlisle. Her mother received a lot of money from her ex-husband's estate. Tandy's stepfather was kind to her, but the young girl was still very hurt at her father's leaving. It didn't help that her mother neglected her.<br/><br/>Seeking love, Tandy met an older boy named Rob Daltry. However, he left for college not long after their relationship started. Feeling rejected and alone, Tandy left her home and got on a bus bound for NYC. Once there, a man tried to rob her. Fortunately, a homeless man intervened and prevented that from happening. Tandy thanked him by buying him some food, and thus her friendship with Tyrone Johnson was born.<br/><br/>Some time later, a man named Doctor SImon Marshall was offering runaways and homeless people a place to find food and shelter. Tandy accepted happily, but Tyrone was suspicious of it. Regardless, he followed to keep an eye on Tandy. Once there, everyone was knocked out and given a dose of a designer drug that the Maggia had made as a replacement for heroin. Unknown to the doctor, as well and Tandy and Ty themselves, the pair had latent mutant genetics in their DNA. This allowed them to survive the effects of the drug, while everyone else died...<br/><br/>The two escaped their confines, and jumped into a river. There, their powers began to manifest. Tandy discovered her powers could keep Tyrone satiated. Some of Marshall's men found them, but Ty consumed them when Tandy hit them with light daggers. The two of them pledged to protect each other from that moment on, as well as help out young people who found themselves in similar positions.<br/><br/>The pair worked together for some time before they were nearly beaten by someone much powerful. A man named Charles Xavier intervened and offered them a place for them at his school. Initially reluctant, the pair refused. But, after some time and another offer, they accepted. They found a place that accepted them, and they've been happy at the school ever since.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Mutations and Powers</span></span><br/><strong>Classification:</strong>Gamma<br/><br/><strong>Type of mutant:</strong>Mutant parent/drugs manifested her ability<br/><br/><strong>Powers:</strong><br/><span class="bbc_u">Lightforce Generation</span>- As a result of her exposure to experimental drugs, Dagger generates a form of 'living light' which is actually Lightforce. She produces much more than normal humans do, but is usually conservative in the use of her powers. Overuse of her powers could be fatal. Dagger generates and stores this lifeforce energy automatically. If she goes for more than a week or so without using her powers she will become fevered and delirious, and eventually discharge her energy involuntarily.<br/><span class="bbc_u">Lightforce Daggers</span>- Tandy can form 6-inch 'light daggers' which she can throw from her fingertips. Her daggers may automatically form under certain conditions, such as another person in danger. The maximum effective range is unknown, but the daggers seem to weaken with further distance. Tandy has a limited ability to control their flight and reinforce them by compelling them to seek targets. They can track a being, but it is most effective when searching for Cloak. Those hit by these knives have their own lifeforce disrupted. Dagger can then drain a portion of their lifeforce; enough to kill if she wishes. Normally she chooses to leave them in a state of shock where they will see a vision of how their life might be different. The experience is powerful enough to make most individuals rethink their choices, although a hardened criminal or evil being is unlikely to change their ways.<br/><span class="bbc_u">Lightforce Detoxification</span>- Tandy's energy can also 'purge' a person, removing toxins, drugs, and other malignant substances from their system. It also has the capacity to cure certain persons of drug addictions.<br/><span class="bbc_u">Lightforce Manipulation</span>- Sometimes Tandy can redirect the daggers after they ricochet, other times the daggers are dispersed if they hit a non-living thing. She can project her lifeforce energy in a diffused manner, allowing her to illuminate dark areas as if by natural light. Tandy can also projects her 'light' into Cloak's dimension to feed his 'hunger.' She is unharmed when traveling through his dimension and can pass this protection to others.<br/><br/><strong>Abilities:</strong>Acrobatic and pretty flexible<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">School Information</span></span><br/><strong>Classes Taken:</strong>History (Human & Mutant), History 101, Power Control<br/><br/><strong>Clubs/Extracurriculars:</strong>Trying to get a gymnastics club going<br/><br/><strong>Relations:</strong><br/>Tyrone "Ty" Johnson (Cloak) - Her partner, and someone she is fiercely loyal to.
