Personality:

Polaris's best attribute is that she is one of the most honest people in the world. She have no fear of other people, or the consequences of what she feels/thinks. Thus, she will always tell the truth. It is something that was drilled into her as a young kid, and it's something she is incapable of contradicting. She also lacks tact, and has taken the phrase, "if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all," to the extreme. While She can be very opinionated and is easy to have a conversation with, if given the choice, she'd rather not say anything at all. Polaris doesn't feel like most of the people in the world are worthy enough for her contribution, vocally, and is not worth a damn usually.

Polaris is violent, and more than a little scary when pissed off. She is the kind of person who will not yell, will not fight, but will simply crush you. she has lived with her father long enough to understand that confidence is everything. So even when she's scared, even when it feels like the world is falling down, she'll pretend everything is okay. No matter what is going on his life, or in the particular situation, she'll make it look like it was no big thing . .

Lorna Dane has been fighting for the peaceful coexistence of mutants and humans most of her life. Mutant kind is probably the only thing she put before herself. Lorna would gladly lay her life on the line to protect mutant life. She would love for a peaceful coexistence, but if the humans wanted war, she would give it to them. There's a part of Lorna that thinks if everyone would just listen to her, everything in the world could be fixed.

This is a trait she is proud of, and she does nothing to suppress it. She doesn't deal with people, or their problems. She disconnects. One minute, you're talking to her, the next minute, she might as well not be there. Sometimes? She'll even just walk away. It's almost like watching someone fade into nothing. She doesn't like "emotional drama", and she doesn't participate in it.

"With great power comes great responsibility"

Powers:

Magnetic Field Manipulation: Polaris is a mutant with the ability to manipulate magnetism, she can use her powers manipulate the magnetic, electrical, and gravitational fields. Since she has preferred not to use her powers in combat situations, she has not worked nearly as hard to develop them as Magneto has so she cannot summon as great an amount of energy as Magneto can. Even though, Polaris can levitate metallic objects and create force fields in which she can suspend persons or objects in the air and in which she can protect them from attacks from outside the fields. The main feat made possible by magnetism is Polaris' ability to lift and manipulate metal. She has shown such fine tuned skills as to nearly liquefy, mend, and reconstruct metallic objects, and has some level of influence on the ferrous metals that reside in everything.

• Magnetic Force-Fields: Polaris can protect herself from physical harm, can stretch her fields to protect a large group, and can suspend persons or objects in the air.
  
  
• Magnetic Flight: Polaris can suspend herself in flight by riding the Earth's magnetic field
  
  
• Electromagnetic Sight: By concentrating, Polaris can perceive the world around herself solely as patterns of magnetic and electrical energy. She can perceive the natural magnetic auras surrounding living beings, as well.
  
  
• Magnetic Pulse: Polaris can focus her magnetic energy into powerful concussive blasts. She can also overload or short-circuit electrical systems. She has been shown destroying Shi'ar warships with single magnetic pulses.
  
  
• Magnetic Flight: Polaris can suspend herself in flight by riding the Earth's magnetic field
  
  
• Geomagnetic Link: Polaris is tied very closely to Earth's EM Field. As is it effected, so is she. She knows instinctively all that happens to it, and with this link, is granted an odd sort of immortality. Earth lends her strength by it's simple existence. She draws on this strength all unconsciously.

Weapons N\A

Strengths/Abilities:

Natural Charm - Since Lorna was young, she has possessed a very likable personality. Though not quite indicative of her true personality, her smile and eyes have always come off as trust worthy.

Smarts - Though his IQ is only above average, Polaris' life experiences have sharpened her mind. She can manipulate most people,and convince them of things that aren't completely true. Lorna also possesses expertise in geophysics, and has earned a Masters degree in that field.




Weaknesses: (at least 2)


Mentally Unstable -Although Lorna appears to be currently sane, her mental stability is still questionable, she is potentially as powerful as her father, but constantly fights psychotic and manic states brought-on by overuse of her powers

Emotional Influence: Lorna's ability to wield her powers is affected by her emotions; hence, if she does not maintain control, a fit of rage might induce a destructive magnetic wave. As a result, Lorna has in the past kept a tight rein on all extreme emotions.

"All it takes is one bad day to reduce
the sanest man alive to lunacy,"

History:
The illegitimate daughter of the mutant terrorist Magneto, Lorna Dane. Lorna Dane was orphaned only weeks after her birth when her parents supposedly died in a plane crash. She was adopted by the Danes, a couple who claimed to be her mother's sister and brother-in-law, and did not learn of her adoption or the fate of her birth parents until she was nearly twenty years old. Lorna had been born with green hair, which she always kept dyed brown so that she would not be seen as "different." Lorna’s hair color was the only outward sign of her latent genetic potential for magnetic powers, but certain genetic factors were absent which would have allowed her to exercise those powers.

Iceman met the young Lorna Dane after she was identified as a mutant by Cerebro and discovered that she had green hair after Lorna stepped out of the shower. Lorna's magnetic powers emerged when she was controlled by Mesmero and subjected to a 'mutant energy stimulator' device. Lorna and Magneto were convinced that they were father and daughter, due to the similar natures of their powers. Iceman provided evidence that convinced Lorna that her true parents had died in a plane crash years earlier and she turned against Magneto, who was revealed to be a robot double. Lorna returned home with the X-Men and, eventually, joined the team.

Lorna returned home with the X-Men and, eventually, joined the team. In the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, the X-Men were tutored, by Professor Charles Xavier, and trained in the use of their powers, in the Danger Room. For a while, Iceman had a crush on her, but Lorna didn't truly reciprocate the feelings. Lorna did, however, fall in love with her teammate, Havok, the brother of Cyclops. They both served for a time as active X-Men. During this time, Professor X revealed himself alive and enlisted Lorna and Alex Summers' help repelling an invasion by the alien Z'Nox

Lorna returned to Genosha with Magneto to supply him with power and help him keep order. She believed she was doing it for the greater good, but also knew that she enjoyed the education in her powers that she was receiving.Magneto launched a full-scale assault on Carrion Cove, the last city opposing his rule, in order to gain access to technology that would restore his full abilities. Lorna attempted to stop him, but was defeated and left the country only to later return covertly to help oppose Magneto's tyrannical rule.

Later, when Magneto captured Professor X as the first step in a war against humanity, Polaris returned to Genosha to help evacuate the humans still living there. After Wolverine nearly crippled Magneto, Polaris stayed to help him recover and maintain order. At this time, Lorna began running genetic tests on Magneto and herself, while investigating the plane crash that killed her parents. To her shock, she discovered that all the metal on her parents' plane had been magnetized and that she was Magneto's genetic daughter. She left Genosha in a hurry. After coming to terms with her discovery, Polaris returned to Genosha, and found out that Magneto had known of her research and its results and had proclaimed them to his people, so she was greeted as a returning princess.

rebuild this place outta Lego."

Writing Sample:

A petite woman past-- more like pushed past-- civilians on the streets of New York. Eyelids were shut like concrete, a look of pain and discomfort playing across her visage. She could think of nothing to do, it was as if her brain took a break and her muscles were just acting out from memory. Lorna stumbled here and there with each foot step. She had no destination, just to get far away; far away enough so that the headaches would subside.It was strange it was as if she woke up with this lingering pain…she knew, over the years, what it meant that nearby there was trouble. It only progressed when it was trouble towards her, but it seemed like the headache just wouldn’t go away this time. With length the pain became more of a hassle to just ignore, the poor girl nearly collapsed due to it on her way to meet her father, but now the day was ending—the sun setting.

Lorna Dane was on the path to her apartment but unknowingly had past it a few blocks back. All she wanted to do was get somewhere safe a place where she could handle this lengthy headache alone—of course not too alone, it would be somewhere in sight of the public but just more inconspicuous. She wouldn’t want to have a freak meltdown in front of society now, would she? The throbbing remained potent. As she wondered with eyes closed she felt her form bump accidentally into a being in front of her. With eyes stuck to her feet she winced as she flickered them open and noticed a pair of mud covered sneakers, foreign to hers. Had it been raining? As if on cue the woman felt the little wet droplets embrace her skin as well as notice the almost clean soaked ground beneath her, puddles indicated it had.She wasn't in the mood to be saying excuse me, one would probably kill the poor sap,

After Lorna managed to wonder a few more blocks, head still in hands, she came to an alleyway clearing. Something made her stop call it will or instinct, her feet precisely met at the middle of the opening. A rustle then an audible crash met her ears as she slowly picked her head, brunette locks bounced from her gaze then there it was. A man having some sort of quarrel with a woman not 20 feet down the alleyway, it seemed that he had a black leather hand bag in hand with a glittering, silver gun to the woman’s head. . A mugging, how original Lorna knew that was the danger she had sensed; there was her man; the criminal, the bane of her existence. If people could just be nice…she wouldn’t be in these horrendous headaches all the time.

"Let the woman go..." Polaris' voice was powerful, catching both the mugger and the victim off guard. The mugger pointed the gun at Polaris and then back at the woman, Lorna hated guns, they were a cowards tool. The Polaris was making the mugger nervous, he back away from her and held the gun up to the woman's head. " You come any closer and I'll kill her" he said as he cocked the gun. Polaris narrowed her green eyes, she couldn't let this creep kill this woman for nothing. She step a little closer and smiled, " You kill her and you won't have anything standing between me and you, when I rip you in half" the threat went on def ears, the mugger pointed the gun back at Polaris, she could tell in his eyes that he was about to shoot her.

Of course Polaris wasn't going to let that happen. The Mugger quickly turned back to the woman and unloaded 3 shots, Polaris had created a dense sheet of magnetic energy around the woman's body. The bullets deflected off the energy wall, and ricochet back into the body of the mugger. The woman walked up to Polaris and spit at her, " Damn Mutants.... this wouldn't be happening if it weren't for you. Killing a human..." it was like the woman didn't care if the man was robbing her. She foe some reason hated mutants more then a person who tried to kill her, even if the mutant just saved her life. Polaris had half the mind to kill her were she stood, but that would have made her stoop to there level, and she is Homo Superior, and she would never bow to the humans.

Polaris left the old hag where she stood, her house was right around the corner, she stayed here when she was away from genosha on official business, ranging from recruiting new mutants or taking out extremist mutant protesters. She walked into her house and closed the door, she was to return back to genosha tomorrow, and she new her father would have a few plans for the humans. Lorna just knew that the age of mutant kind was upon them, and she would help her father show the world who is truly superior.
