My, this is fun. :D

Name: Timber [Teresa Calhoun]
Power: Manipulation of plantlife - that manipulation is limited by the amount of water and natural ground (soil, sand, even rock) nearby. She can't make something grow straight out of concrete, for example, unless some organic ground is running through or underneath it. If you let her near a water main, however, she can really screw over a city street. Besides the ability to make plantlife grow, she can also manipulate it once it is grown - wrapping vines around something, as another example.
Backstory: From the midwest US, Timber lived on a family farm and continuously won blue ribbons in the county fair for the best vegetables - she had no idea that she was a mutant until Professor Xavier recruited her. She lives at the Xavier Mansion, and helps teach when they're low on staff. She has a garden in the back of the house, where she tends rare plants that have medicinal properties. She also researches these plants in association with other mutants, should an ailment suffered by a specific mutant require a different remedy than tradition calls for. Timber takes night courses to get her doctorate in botany.

(Her specific power is why that stylized flower on her vest is there - it's a flower, but also an X. ooh, I know I'm clever.)

Real Name: Rikuyo Mirimoto
Alias: Siren
Age: 17
Powers: She can create ultra-high sound waves with her voice. She can lessen or strengthen these waves at will, to the point of irratation, paralyzation or even death. One setback to her power is that she has no way of directing this at any specific target, so if she takes that mask off, you better run. She cannot talk normally with her voice because of her powers. She also has telepathic abilities that can, when combined with the powers of her voice control someone for a short amount of time.
Abilities: Highly skilled in ninjitsu, judo, and aikido.

Rikuyo was always a quiet girl, even before her powers manifested. She was born in Osaka, Japan. One day, at the age of 13, in school while making a presentation to her class Rikuyo's powers manifested. They did not kill anyone, but several people blacked out. Scared and confused she ran back home. After several monthes of tests and trying to figure out what was going on, the doctors realized that Rikuyo was a mutant. Her parents decided that the best place for her would be with other mutants like her, in a place where she could learn to control her powers. She now resides at the Xaviar Institute as a student. She uses telepathy to communicate with others.

what ho wooster!

...Ok, finally done!
So I dont have a name for the x man, but for the pink one Gumix sounds ...funny enough!

Because of the violent anomoly that orbits close to the colony every 4 years and briefly engulfs the neighboring moon Sitis the citizens cannot work for that one year and use that time to process the ores and metals found in abundance on Aracon. The anomoly's radiation is so harsh that should one be exposed for more than 5 minutes they have little chance of surviving. But despite this danger the citizens are willing to risk it for all the riches that can be found on the planet.

um... yeah, tried again, still think its awful....

As you can see, Link is in Halo land or whatever you call it. :)

I love this contest idea. :O

okay, first off, this is (obviously) for the comtest week 20 x-men thing.
secondly, i would like to say that half way through i accidently clicked a bookmark button because it was so close to the undo button so i went to a different page. i was able to go back and the comp remembered what i had done, so that was good, but the timer was put back to zero...i started around 11:45 i believe and the time now is going to be 3 in a few secs.... ANYWAY. just wanted to let you all know that the timer is off.


okay, so about this guy:
his name is stealth..he is alot like a cat, but I did not like the thought of him being known as 'cat man!' or 'kitty boy'...plus i dont know if thats already an x-men... so-since cats are very stealthy animals (quiet and quick) thats why i named him 'Stealth'
Powers: no special powers such as fire balls and stuff, but he is very quick. He has a very keen sence of hearing (duh. ears), he can jump, and hes got some claws....yep. so yeah it is kinda a cat man. but an x-cat-man. see? he's got them glowie eyes cause its all dark out...>>
weapons: katana and claws

ooohhwww maaan. the background turned out like sH897e4r5z. i should stop using the air brush tool for large surfaces...

anyway, overall i think i did pretty good, if you think otherwise, PLEASE tell me, i love to hear constructive critisism C: helps me get better.
oh and by the way, i love hands O.o

This is ferril she has no memories of her past only of the time of her death and her rebirth as a mutant known as black plague, her power is to bring death to things her deadly clawed hand touches,she can control this power at times but not when angered,she only knows two things in life"to live and to hunt those who killed her in the past." she will not die till those men die so mainly she's a undead maniac seeking revenge........(1:45 in the morning my hand is cramped and I'm unable to draw well but I don't care)

blah, been too long
