Name: Astrid “Gestalt” Ambramovic
Age: 20
Power: Astrid is a telepath with a great affinity for telepathic perception. She is able to take information from even the most guarded mind without too much difficulty. Unfortunately, her bad experiences with her abilities left her with issues separating her thoughts from the ones she receives from others.
While she has the potential for telekinesis, the manifestation of her powers has permanently damaged her brain in a way that prevents her from actually developing these abilities in any real way. According to X-Corps doctors, it is extremely unlikely that she will ever manifest any telekinetic ability.
Description: Astrid is a taller than average girl with a slim build. She has brown hair which she keeps very short and grey eyes. She enjoys dressing in a general “punk rock” aesthetic, complete with various piercings and tattoos.
Background: Astrid was born in the city of Zadar in Croatia to mutant parents with minor abilities. She enjoyed a healthy, normal childhood until her abilities manifested shortly after her seventeenth birthday.
For a moment, her mind connected with the minds of almost every single person on the planet. She held the entire world in her mind and it absolutely destroyed her mind. Acting purely on animal instinct, her mind managed to shut out the voices and desperately grasped at whatever it could use to create a functional person. Unfortunately, most of what it took was scraps of other people’s memories, experiences, and personalities.
This process took her nearly three years. During this time she was aided by various doctors and specialists from X-Corp. Once she had managed to get to a point that she was comfortable leaving home, she was invited to continue her training at XU.
