Character's Name: Leonardo "Leo" Remy Howlett
Character's Age: 23
Character's Attitude: He's stubborn and defensive about his past. He wants nothing but to be left alone to gamble his life away, but secretly craves to be something more and to be forgiven for the things he's done. Burdened by the death of his mother and the abandonment from his father, Leo takes upon the rogue loner persona. He's arrogant, charismatic, stubborn, sarcastic, and considered a "flight" risk to some. He doesn't care for anyone but himself, however, he only does that so he doesn't make any close relationships, for the fear of being abandoned or hurt by them. So instead, he makes a pre-emptive strike of wreaking any type of relationship when he believes them to have outlived their usefulness. He jokes a lot, in order not to care about anything
Character's Allegiance: Neutral
Character's Appearance (Clothes, hair, face, etc. If you can provide a picture, that would be awesome!): He's 6'2, brown eyes and brown hair. He has a small light trimmed beard. Caucasian. Medium build and well-toned.

History: Born in Las Vegas Nevada, Leo grew up in the casinos as he father taught him the trade of gambling. Addicted to it at a young age, he worked as a runner for loan sharks, grasping the game and its connections to people. When his father lost a big poker game and couldn't pay back his loan from the loan sharks, he bolted from his family and life, and the loan sharks went after Leo and his mom instead. Using the skills he learned, Leo played in underground gambling spots in order to help pay back the money, despite his mother's protests. While he was gone, the loan shark's henchmen attacked and killed his mother - she died in his arms and he has never forgiven himself for leaving her. Despite his hate for gambling, he has become addicted to it, and finds that it is the only thing that erases his pains.
Leo was placed into foster care after his mother died, and it was there that he discovered his powers. Flighty and a socially outcast, Leo used his powers to run away. After that, he never looks back to his past, except when he looks at his necklace, which was given to him by his mother. It is the only thing that reminds him to keep his humanity.
An avid gambler, Leo has learned the style of the streets, which gives him the skill of perception and analysis of people. As of now, Leo is running from some loan sharks that he hasn't been able to pay off.
Role Play sample:
"Full house, boy." The man with the cigar placed his cards onto the table. Leo held a straight face, knowing better to reveal any tails. Glancing at the pot in the middle he imagined how much he could spend. "There's about 25 Grand in that pot." Leo said, pointing at the cash. "It's a shame to lose so much." Leo smiled and placed down his cards. "Royal Flush, old man." He revealed a nice row of white teeth. "So sorry." He began packing away the cash.
The man stared at Leo's hand, his cigar hanging out of his mouth. "You cheated!" He yelled and accused Leo.
"What? The hell I did! I won fair and square!"
"NO! You cheated!" The man jumped up quickly, making his chair fall back with a loud thud. Everyone in the room stared at the group, feeling extremely nervous.
"No one beats me! No one beats Reginald Kingston! I own this town! I own that money!" He yelled at Leo.
Uh oh. Leo's internal alarm went off. Grabbing all that he could into his backpack, Leo slung it around his shoulders and ducked down just as Kingston drew a 9mm caliber pistol and started shooting.
Screams were heard as Leo bolted for the exit. He didn't want to use his powers out in the open - that would give away that he was a mutant...and they weren't too accepted here. Running past people, he was able to escape into the dark alley.
"Get back here, cheater!" one of Kingston's men shouted at him as he pointed a gun at him.
"Sorry...I don't cheat, and I don't stick around." He gave a two finger salute and used his powers to allow him to fly away.
ACCEPTED!!!! AHAHAHAHA
