Anyway, regarding relationships and people Tommy (who's been at Nebula since freshman year and is currently a junior) might know or get along with.  On a broad note, he's a fair bit less stereotypically nerdy than one might expect given his abilities and ancestry, but...well, it wouldn't be surprising if people found his linguistic habits off-putting.<br/><br/>On a related note, although Tommy's power errors probably do not involve accidentally triggering it when he has no intention to creationspeak at all, feel free to react somehow if he happens to mention an object that you wouldn't want to see.  He has never actually created bovine excrement while swearing, but I'd worry.<br/><br/>Tommy's a bit different than in the previous go-round, but he probably still quite likes Karter.  Although he's not so prone to active troublemaking, the fact that he's good at school for "honest" reasons this time does give him a lot less reason to actively play nice with the teachers as long as he's not doing something that his dad would thunderbolt him for.<br/><br/>Tommy's initial reaction to Beth's codename probably soured the Bs on him forever.  Vice versa given that she presumably kept it.<br/><br/>Cold Heritage, I almost missed your earlier post.  I'm not sure how much Tommy and Michael really have in common, but it could be interesting.<br/><br/>I'm sure someone will make jokes about how similar Tommy's and Martin's codenames are.<br/><br/>Tommy might actually not be perceptive enough to realize that Connor should scare him, in which case he...might actually get along with him.  Maybe.  That could go either way and possibly not end well.  (Given Connor's ability to do crazy things with limited resources, the teachers might actually worry that he'd trick Tommy into helping him get things that...would be innocuous for people who aren't Connor.)<br/><br/>In general Tommy might be interested in meeting people whose powers are somehow mystical or spiritual, mostly because there seem to be so few others his own age (Brittany and kinda Martin are about the only ones -- well, Robert too, but it's probably easy to forget since his power is basically just kicking ass).<br/><br/>By the way, GM(s): how bizarre is it for someone who inherits powers from a parent to have seriously different abilities?  In Tommy's case, it might make the most sense for him to just say "my dad has weather powers, weird how I got the words thing instead."  But if that's so bizarre it would be questioned seriously (instead of just "huh, weird how that goes") he would probably know better.  By X-Men standards this isn't crazy but just about every other PC with inherited powers seems to have pretty much the same stuff.
