character name: lorna sally dane. > also known as polaris during her time as an villain/anti-hero & self-titled mistress of magnetism. age: 25. faceclaim: halston sage. voiceclaim: liza del mundo (in wolverine and the x-men) skill set: lorna’s skillset is divided into two sections.
mutation.
electromagnetism manipulation: the ability to create, shape & manipulate electromagnetism which for accounts for almost all physical phenomena observable to the unaided human senses, including light and other electromagnetic radiation, all of chemistry, most of mechanics (excepting gravitation), and of course magnetism and electricity. this allows for her to generate & control electricity, see electromagnetic fields, manipulate technology & low-level psychic immunity.
magnetism manipulation: generate, control & manipulate magnetism in all its forms, both natural (planetary, solar, lunar, stellar, magnetosphere, magnetic materials/ferromagnetism, etc.), organic (generated by the electric currents of living beings) or artificial (everything creating/using electricity). can affect any matter that is magnetic (iron, nickel, cobalt and their alloys, some rare earth metals, naturally-occurring minerals such as lodestone) manipulating and controlling them as they will and indirectly use them to manipulate other things. this allows for the creation of magnetic force-fields, flight, electromagnetic sight, concussive blasts, energy absorption, a geomagnetic link to earth & its em-field, control of organic iron & control over the electromagnetic spectrum.
abilities.
extensive expertise in geophysics in which she has gained a masters degree in that field— probably helps that she can feel the earth rotate and predict natural disasters from the way the earth moves but yknow.

was your character “blipped” out? if so, what did they return to and how is it affecting them? if not, who important to them was blipped out, and what has it felt like after those five years have passed? ( if your character is a dc muse: what were they doing when they passed through the portal? )
she was in a coffee shop drinking a terribly overpriced latte. and there she felt two things. one: a distant echo as half the population of earth was ripped away. two: the mind-numbing scream as her sister, wanda, was pulled from the earth. however she didn’t have time to try and process anything. half the population vanished & it was in that moment that the planes and helicopters started to fall from the new york city skyline.
lorna dane was a secret identity. polaris was a hated anti-hero. but those are innocent people in the sky. so she throws her coffee to the side and catches hundreds of planes and lowers them carefully to the ground. she filled new york with a dark green swarth as she captured falling planes and collapsing buildings. and so? she’s spent the next five years trying to repair the world. she’s been pulling together destroyed buildings and dragging up boats that sunk, moving rubble and remains. she’s taken up polaris again to do so, keeping lorna & her job as a geo-physicist separate. maybe the world doesn’t trust polaris but that’s okay.
where are they living? are they living with anyone?
in a small apartment thats cluttered with plants. she’s alone— bar her lazily named cat, katze.
why is your character affiliated with who they’re affiliated with?
lorna is alone for the simplest reason: because no one understands her. she watched her father & his allies be branded as evil for believing in mutant equality and being willing to do whatever it takes to get there. she may align herself with others if their motives happen to be the same but lorna is a lone wolf more then anything. however if she did find likeminded people, she would join them.
who are their major friends, allies, and foes?
to call lorna an ally of the x-men is.. inherently untrue. she is the ally of her father first and foremost. and if he chooses to align himself with them, then so does she. for now, she is alone. the identity of polaris was scorched with the terrible things she did in the name of mutant rights and few are willing to trust the vigilante— even after her help after the blip.
whose hands do they believe the country should be in?
magneto obviously— jk but maybe not. as long as humans are in charge, mutants will never have the rights they deserve in lorna’s mind and she’s spent far too long being held down to even care who is running the country unless its her father. he is the only person she trusts to give them the freedom they deserve.
what’s their current mental state at? their physical state?
she is her fathers daughter above all and so that means.. not that well sometimes. lorna suffes heavily from undiagnosed bipolar disorder & clinical depression. while she is doing well physically, her mental state is constantly up in the air & varies from day to day.
