She is not above making a joke at her own expense and seems to be a happy, vibrant woman. Anyone that is acquainted with her more intimately will know that it's sometimes and act, albeit a very good one. Like many in the mutant world she harbors her own set of demons.<br/><br/><strong>Hobbies:</strong><br/>-Painting and drawing<br/>-Reading<br/>-Language/Cultural studies<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong><br/>Catherine was the eldest of two children born to Galen and Anna Weiss in Syracuse New York.  From an early age there was indication that she was exceptionally bright and had a prodigious talent for painting before reaching her adolescent years. Cat attended a private Christian school and many of her teachers implored her parents to pursue her talents further, but they declined. It was always her father's preference that his daughters remain sheltered within the Church.<br/><br/>The church attended by Cat and her family held a particularly hostile view of mutants and both girls were indoctrinated into a small but mostly ineffective movement. As she got older she began to reject the ideals and attempted to sway her younger sister to her thinking, though was never successful in doing so.<br/><br/>When Cat was 21 an automobile accident claimed the life of her sister and left Cat in critical condition. She was admitted for care into a local hospital and survived, but seemed to suffer some serious after effects associated with her latent abilities. Memories seemed to linger in her mind for longer and were remembered in more vivid detail. There were times she was unable to stop the rush of them and the memory of her sister's death often played on repeat with excruciating accuracy.<br/><br/>Before long her parents decided it best to have her admitted for inpatient Psychiatric care where a psychiatrist by the name of Samantha Anker took over Catherine's case.<br/><br/>Catherine was only present for a short period of time before Dr. Anker recognized that there was something else accounting for her struggles. While pursuing ways to help Catherine cope, she reached out to a contact at Xavier's institute. In the month that followed it was determined that Cat could be considered a mutuant. While institutionalized she demonstrated an ability to marginally impact the empathic state of others and experienced episodes of synesthesia.  All of these seemed attributable to trauma, and certainly seemed to coincide with an intensified manifestation of her eidetic memory.<br/><br/>The long term solution was that Catherine was stabilized and transferred through her own wishes and by Dr. Anker's recommendation to Xavier's Institute For Higher Learning. She has only just recently arrived and will begin by selecting classes.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Mutations and Powers</span></span><br/><strong>Classification:</strong>Delta<br/><strong>Type of mutant:</strong>Dormant Gene<br/><strong>Powers:</strong>Long term Eidetic memory. There has also been some indication that there may be minor empathic ability, though this has not been explored.
