Notably anyone he labels as a loose cannon. Recently, however, he has become more hardline with students and staff, viewing the recent attack on the school as a personal failure to prepare appropriate defenses for such an eventuality.<br/><br/><strong>Hobbies:</strong>Baseball, chess, motorcycles, and fixed wing aircraft.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Scott's father was a Major in the USAF stationed in Anchorage Alaska, and took his entire family up for flight as a sort of family event when Scott was still a young boy. They came under assault by Unidentified craft, and as the plane went down in flames Scott's parents used the only available parachute for Scott, fastening his younger brother Alex to him. He watched on the way down as the plane crashed in a ball of fiery destruction.<br/><br/>He and his brother became wards of the state, and were separated. Over his time in orphanages, his abilities began to manifest and life in the orphanages became harder and harder. Eventually he ran away with the intent of finding his little brother, but was found by Professor Xavier after an accident with his Optic Blasts. Xavier offered to train Scott to use his powers, and he became one of the first X-Men.<br/><br/>While Professor Xavier failed to teach him full control of his power, Hank McCoy discovered that Ruby Quartz resonated with the same Psionic shielding his body used to protect him from his own Optic Blasts. This has allowed him some modicum security with the dangerous strength of his Optic Blasts, and he's become an effective leader for the X-Men, and teaches Strategy and Tactics as a preparation class for anyone who wants to join the team.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Mutations and Powers</span></span><br/><strong>Classification:</strong>Alpha<br/><br/><strong>Type of mutant:</strong>Dormant Gene<br/><br/><strong>Powers:</strong><br/>Optic Blasts: Scott emits beams of energy from his eyes, which appear as red lights and cause massive concussive force without recoil or heat. These can pulverize rock and rupture steel, and he is accurate enough with his manipulation of them to punch a pin sized hole in a penny. However, when his eyes are not protected and are open, the blasts continually emit from them.<br/><br/>Psionic Shielding: His body resonates with the same frequency of his optic blasts, making him immune to his own optic blasts as well as his Brother Havok's powers. He's resistant to most form of energy blasts.<br/><br/>3D Spatial Awareness: Scott's awareness of his surroundings is nearly absolute, and work on an instinctual level. He can use this awareness to accurately predict the location of beings moving at superhuman speeds, to ricochet his blasts off of hardened or shiny objects with lethal accuracy, and to assist him with piloting or driving.<br/><br/><strong>Abilities:</strong><br/>Expert Pilot: A natural and trained gift, likely inherited from his father, and enhanced by his spatial awareness.<br/><br/>Expert Combatant: Trained extensively in martial arts, unarmed combat, and acrobatic fighting.<br/><br/>Master Tactician and Strategist: Scott's spent his entire adult life as leader of the X-Men, and has developed exceptional leadership skills. He's at his best and most dangerous in tense situations, when he has little time to think about his options or to doubt his decisions.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">School Information</span></span><br/><strong>Classes Taught:</strong>Strategy and Tactics<br/><br/><strong>Staff Relations:</strong>Long term romantic relationship with Jean Grey.

Ororo Munroe(storm) is his second on the team of X-Men, and should he fall the default leader.
