He's rich, a little bit entitled, and often too confident of his own good (or those around him). He's headstrong and doesn't take criticism well, and at times can be a little snarky and a bit of an asshole. That said, he is rarely mean without reason though those who display a lack of spine or are overly weak may wind up on the wrong end of a sharp tongue. Still, he dislikes people who are mean simply for the sake of being mean, or only to raise their own egos, and he sees cruelty as a sign that someone lacks confidence in themselves.<br/><br/><strong>Hobbies:</strong> Fast cars, languages, gambling, partying, training, being a playboy<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong> Marcel was born as the second child of a rather rich and eccentric Ambassador from Monaco. His mother was a descendant of royalty who gave birth to him while the family was on a ski trip in Bosnia. In addition to his older brother (Marius), he grew up with a pair of twin sisters (Claudette and Nicole), though it was Marcel who became the 'favored' child. Most things about him seemed blessed, genetically speaking at least. He was handsome at a young age, was never sick, was strong, fast, and competed (and excelled) at sports and was everything his parents wanted him to be.<br/><br/>His brother was the first of the family to exhibit mutant abilities, though it was in a terrifying fashion. The elder brother had a hunger for genetic marrow from mutants, and he attacked and killed their mother to feast on her dormant mutant marrow. Marius then fled, leaving the family to grieve and try to come to terms with what happened. It wasn't until several years later when Marcel's own mutant powers finally emerged in the middle of a mountain climbing trip when Marcel lost his footing and plummeted down the side of the mountain. Miraculously the fall didn't hurt him, and even more impossibly his will to return to his family launched him into the air where he learned that he could fly.<br/><br/>His father had many connections, and knew what he was, and he reached out to Professor X to help deal with things. Not long afterwards, Marcel was sent to live at the Mansion against his will. Being sent away from his family, his friends, and being forced to live in a school of all things was... more than a little annoying. Living in a mansion? Great. Living in a mansion with a billion other people, including some annoying kids? Less great. But still, Marcel had damn super powers, and he was going to learn to use them. He threw himself into his studies, working hard by day, being a bit of a troublemaker and partier at night, and did well under the tutelage of those at the mansion over the last several years.<br/><br/>Now, entering true adulthood, he is finishing his second college degree at the school while starting to teach some classes of his own. Introductory Telekinesis they called it - the one part of his powers that he was the least practiced in, of course, which he was pretty sure they knew exactly what they were doing when they set him to teaching that. But still, teaching others would force him to learn his own power better, and besides, some of the students were handsome.<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<br/><br/><strong>Powers:</strong><br/><em>Super Strength</em> - Marcel is immensely strong, able to toss cars and similar around with ease. While he doesn't quite enter the realm of those such as Colossus and Juggernaut, he can still bend steel and punch through walls with little effort.<br/><br/><em>Superhuman Durability</em> - Perhaps his most potent power, Marcel is nearly impervious to physical harm. He's been punched by the world's strongest heroes, leaving him only bruised. He can catch bullets in his hands without a flinch, and normal weapons fail to pierce his skin. This isn't to say he can't be hurt, but it takes a good deal of effort to tire him out enough to where he can be brought down. Because of his physiology he is immune to poisons, toxins, infections and other disorders.<br/><br/><em>Speed, Reflexes and Agility</em> - Marcel is far faster than any human. He can dodge point blank gunfire - even catch it and toss it back at his opponents as if it were thrown from a gun. He can run at impossible speeds as well, though he is no speedster.<br/><br/><em>Flight</em> - Simply put, Marcel can fly. When exerting himself he can fly at Mach 3, and can leisurely keep up with typical jets and the like. He has been shown to be able to fly even carrying large weights, such as an elevator full of people he was rescuing.<br/><br/><em>Healing Factor</em> - While certainly not anywhere close to beings such as Wolverine, Marcel heals exceedingly fast. Broken bones, torn muscles, and other series injuries heal within minutes or hours. This has the added effect of slowing his aging process as well, much like others with a similar power.<br/><br/><em>Superhuman Senses</em> - Marcel has keen hearing, allowing her to hear things far outside the capabilities of a human. Additionally her eyesight is enhanced to hose of the best creatures on earth and he has telescopic and night vision to boot. Furthermore, her vision allows her to see auras of other mutants, allowing her to know who is and isn't superpowered.<br/><br/><em>Telepathy</em> - Marcel is a telepath of moderate capability, and he can read minds, projects his thoughts into the minds of others, defend and mask himself from other telepaths. He has the ability to implant suggestions and manipulate the memories of others as well, but these are not very practiced and of limited capability. <br/><br/><em>Telekinesis</em> - Like his Telepathy, this is not his most practiced power. He can generate concussive waves of force and has rudimentary control over moving objects.<br/><br/><em>Superhuman Inuitive Ability and Intelligence</em> - Marcel has an ability to innately understand the things he sees, and has an accelerated learning aptitude that allows him to analyze information and pick up skills quickly. This means he can operate most new technology and machinery within moments of coming into contact of it, though does not give him any sort of advanced 'hacker' type abilities and the like. It does, however, mean he has a perfect memory and can read at high speeds.<br/><br/><strong>Abilities:</strong> <br/><em>Languages</em> - Marcel speaks English, French, Italian, Russian, Monégasque and Arabic along with basic skills in several other languages<br/><em>Fighting</em> - Marcel often relies on his mutations, but he's been learning intensively at the school for nearly six years and has become extremely proficient thanks to help from Wolverine, Banshee and others.<br/><em>Extreme Sports</em> - Skiing, fast cars, skateboarding, surfing, base jumping. If it is fast and/or dangerous, Marcel has done it and enjoyed it, and is (probably) good at it.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">School Information</span></span><br/><strong>Classes Taught:</strong> Beginner Telekinesis<br/><strong>Classes Taken:</strong> Intermediate Telepathy, Mental Resilience, Strategy and Tactics, History 101<br/><br/><strong>Clubs/Extracurriculars:</strong> None currently<br/><br/><strong>Staff Relationsh:</strong> TBD<br/><strong>Student Relations:</strong> TBD</div></div>
