She puts off an air of "nothing ever gets to me". Her bright colored hair is one of the only things she puts attention into when it comes to her appearance. She likes to be noticed. She's aware that her hair washes out her other pale features (such as her eyebrows and lips), giving her an alien-esque appearance, but she doesn't care. It never bothers her when she hears people say "Skeleton with a rainbow wig". Tommy will talk to anyone and try to be friends with everyone.<br/><br/>But deep down, she's rather cautious of who she actually lets get to know her. She's more of an acquaintance to all and friend to none. She'll let anyone vent to her and tell her their life story, but they likely couldn't tell anyone how old she was or what her favorite color was with how little she admits to. She would rather spend her day letting people chat her up and then going back to her room to spend the night in silence while others are likely still out having fun.<br/><br/>Tommy is embarrassed that people may find out that she's illiterate. She's managed to get by most of her life avoiding having to read or write things, but now that she's at a school, she hopes to overcome this without letting on to anyone about the issue.<br/><br/><strong>Hobbies:</strong>Hiking, hair styling, looking at magazines, looking at artwork (but she isn't an artist herself), watching movies.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Tommy's mother was a mutant, but she died in child birth at the hospital, bled out. She never knew who her father was. She assumes that if he had been a mutant too, he would have been there with her mother, so she figures he wasn't a mutant and abandoned her mother when he found out she was a mutant. What sort of mutant she was, Tommy never did know. She figures that it wasn't anything powerful. Weak, like herself. She spent several months in the NICU, due to how small she was. They were amazed that a child with such a small weight could even survive, but she did.<br/><br/>Eventually, she was placed into foster care. It was when she was six that her mutation first took affect. The foster family was highly abusive. Not physically, no, they would never leave marks. Instead, they would lock her up in closets with the other children they took in and threaten them through the door. If one of them made a mistake, they were all punished. During one of these punishments, Tommy began to have a panic attack. The foster parents ignored the cries for help and before Tommy knew it, the world just sort of fell away. She could still see and feel and hear everything, but it was all different somehow. The other children screamed louder, but her body just 'slipped' under the door.<br/><br/>When she got back to her feet, her foster parents had come into the room and demanded to know how she had gotten out. Unable to answer them, Tommy ran for a window and climbed out. They were in such shock, that they didn't chase after her. Tommy left a tip with the police that the foster family was abusing the children and never looked back.<br/><br/>By the time she was ten, she had full control of her mutation. It was fairly simple. She just flattened herself out. There was nothing special to it, though she can't stay in that form for too long, because her organs start to go into failure. But long enough to slip under doors or into cracks to get to the other side was never an issue. She was soon picked up by the Morlocks. They made use of her ability to slip into places and unlock doors.<br/><br/>When Callisto returned and turned over leadership of the group, Tommy made the decision to leave as well. To go to the Institute and try to be something more than a street thief.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Mutations and Powers</span></span><br/><strong>Classification:</strong>Epsilon Level<br/><br/><strong>Type of mutant:</strong>Mutant parent<br/><br/><strong>Powers:</strong><br/><br/><em>Two-Dimensional Form</em>- Ability to render herself into a two-dimensional state in which her body was as flat as paper.<br/><br/><strong>Abilities:</strong>Despite her bright appearance, Tommy is well adapt at fading into the background and going unnoticed for long periods of time.

Had a very short 'friends-with-benefits' relationship with the other mutant. It only lasted a few weeks before Caliban confessed to her that they did not feel sexually attracted to her. Rather than continuing the relationship, which Caliban would have allowed for the sake her finding comfort in it, she ended it. She preferred the idea of being friends over forcing Caliban to go through with it any further.
