Julian Grey Sinclair
FACE CLAIM: Sean O'Pry
---------------------------------
AGE: 21
GENDER: Male
ORIENTATION: Pansexual
POSITION: College Student and a Burlesque Club Owner
POWER: Disintegration
Julian has the ability to collapse non-organic objects into dust. What his ability does it that he causes objects to lose cohesion by manipulating the molecules and atoms to a point where they vibrate so rapidly they will press together and then dissolve into dust. It looks as if the objects simply shatter into a million fragments. The power itself doesn't need any movements by for example using hand gestures; it's a mental power that's used simply by thinking about/visualizing it, which in turn can mean that it's not always voluntarily triggered.
It's important to remember that this does not make objects explode; he simply collapses the atom/molecular structure of objects to the point where they simply turn into the dust. The dust is shimmering in consistency, the color depending entirely on the color of the object.
The further away Julian is from an object (check range in limitations), the more he will need to focus and concentrate. The same goes for size, density and the time he needs in order to collapse an object. The smaller and more breakable the object is (wood, glass, porcelain, etc), the quicker it will work. And the opposite for bigger and less breakable objects (metal, steel, etc). A small object, such as a glass can take a few seconds, whereas a wooden box might take a few minutes, and a steel box might take up to an hour (Again, the bigger the item is, the more time it'll take).
LIMITATIONS:
- This ability ONLY works for non-organic objects, which means that his ability will be ineffective against humans or animals.
- He cannot shatter something partly, only fully, which means that he cannot collapse the arm of a statuette, and instead, the entire statuette will shatter completely. Likewise, he cannot -at all- reassemble what is already collapsed into dust.
- When the object is in a range of 15 feet, it doesn't need eye contact. However, between 15 and 30 feet, he needs eye contact/line of sight in order for his ability to work. Any further away and he will not be able to use his ability.
- He cannot shatter the world's hardest material, such as nano materials, and he's never actually had the need to test the limit of his ability, but it's assumed he wouldn't be able to collapse harder materials such as diamonds either.
SIDE-EFFECTS:
- Prolonged use, pushing himself too far and long bouts of concentrating will eventually lead to headaches that further develop into migraines, nose bleeds, nausea, fainting and in extreme cases, other external bleeding.
- Increased heart rate and occasionally feeling increased adrenaline, which causes him to grow restless and impatient, which in turn can make him moody. This will eventually lead to both mental and physical exhaustion.
- Sneezing: the amount of dust the collapsed objects produce can caused him to sneeze and sometimes even get stuffed, as if he has a cold. Sore/red eyes and dry mouth are things he often has to deal with.
HEIGHT: 6'1"
HAIR COLOR: Dark brown
EYE COLOR: Blue
MISC: When it comes to the way Julian dresses, it's usually the newest fashion, though he often finds himself preferring a suit or a simple white t-shirt along with a pair of dark jeans. He opts for something classic, refined and simplistic, as opposed to something more detailed, like accessories. The only accessory he really uses is a watch his mother gave him for his eighteenth birthday.
PERSONALITY: Julian is incredibly socially adept; talkative when he needs to be, and quiet when the time calls for it. He has under several instances proved to be incredibly charming. Though, many would also consider him incredibly arrogant, as he often gives off the impression of thinking that he's untouchable, simply because of how good he thinks he is at observing people and picking up cues. He prides himself in everything he does, and few things ever phase him on a deeper, emotional level.
Hardheaded and built for success, Julian hates losing. That doesn't mean he won't quit if he knows that the battle is lost, but that doesn't mean he won't put up a fight either. Very laid back, he tends to not get bothered by most things. Especially not such childish things as drama and gossip. He considers himself a free man, free to roam and do as he pleases - whenever he pleases.
A flirt by nature, Julian has a long record of sleeping around, casually dating and breaking many hearts. He never lies about his intentions though, and to his core, he considers himself honest. He never leads people on by letting them think that they'll get anything more than what he's prepared to offer. Of course, that doesn't mean Julian cannot fall in love; he has before, and will likely fall again, but thanks to a lot of determination and self control, he's taught himself to stray away from such distracting matters as steady and exclusive relationships; life is too short for him to be tied down to one person.
Despite his laid back nature, Julian does have a dark side. Whether it comes from his need for winning and being on top, or his ability, he doesn't know: he tends to get moody. Severely so. Most people only get to see his either charming and/or flirty, or carefree/stoic nature - where few things bothers him. Some unlucky people have experienced his anger, which sometimes gets out of control. That doesn't mean he would purposely harm someone (unless they deserve it, mind), but it has gone so far that he has punched a hole through a wall.
Being very honest, as mentioned before, Julian has very little to hide. He sees no point in keeping secrets and making an air of mystery around himself, as that often tends to bring more trouble than what it's worth. He's confident, arrogant (even to the point of being smug), charming and well versed, but also stubborn, too expectant of people and easy to disappoint; a walking contradiction even, in some cases.
In Julian's opinion, he always gets what he wants.
SECRET(S): [Trigger Warning: Underage Sex:] When Julian was sixteen, he had an affair with a married woman; The affair lasted for about a year, but ended as the woman thought she was pregnant and threatened to tell her husband everything. After Julian convinced her to go see a doctor, they quickly found out that the woman wasn't pregnant. The affair ended regardless, though, the woman agreed that now that she wasn't pregnant, there was little need to tell her husband - besides, Julian made a strong case, pointing out that she had in fact had sex with a minor.
FATHER: Carter Sinclair
MOTHER: Katherine Sinclair
SIBLINGS: Rebecca Sinclair
WORTHY MENTIONS: A Shiba Inu puppy named Marvin.
CHILDHOOD: Born to Carter and Katherine Sinclair in New York city, it was obvious from the very beginning that Julian was raised to become a successful business man just like his father was. From the moment he was old enough, Julian's parents urged the young boy to explore his talents in various fields, such as sports and art. His parents pushed him to become the best he could possibly be and never give up on anything. Nothing but the best was ever good enough, and excelling at everything was to be expected.
Although one would imagine that the young boy would mind being treated more as an object of which his parents could use to further their own careers, Julian didn't mind. After all, it was all he'd ever known and all he'd ever grown up to learn. When he was old enough to enter school, his parents offered only the best home schooling teachers along with the finest nannies money could buy.
Although his parents presence was scarce, Julian lacked very little in life. His parents made sure that he had everything he could possibly need, and even more so. Most of the young boy's social life revolved around the maids, nannies and private tutors, as well as the kids living in the same building as he did. Other than that, the remaining bits of social life was strictly surrounded by his parents friends and business partners.
Julian was always amazed by the way his parents went about their careers, and in a way, despite their lack of close proximity, he idolized them. He wanted to make them proud. He wanted to be just like them, but do so his own way; he didn't know what just yet, but he was determined that once he turned eighteen, he would have a clear plan about his future.
ADOLESCENCE: It was around the time when Julian was eleven that he first manifested. The manifestation itself was subtle, barely noticeable by the naked eye, and such, not even Julian noticed anything different. Even so, within two weeks, a recruiter showed up in the Sinclair apartment's doorstep. He announced himself, and told Julian all about a school fit for the boy's needs; at first, Julian's parents thought it was some sick joke made by one of their business partners, but after a bit of reassuring, it was made apparent that this wasn't quite the case.
Reluctantly, the Sinclairs let their son go - not that they really had a choice in the matter anyways, making only one request; that their son was sent overseas, to St. Bethany, as opposed to the school located in America. They believed the English school would offer a lot more opportunities than a school located in the middle of nowhere. And with that, Julian was sent of to St. Bethany. The boy was excited to see what all of this had to offer - mutants were new to him, and the ever curious boy was looking forward to see what it all would bring.
While attending St. Bethany, Julian grew into his own character; the older her grew, the more adept he became when it came to being around other children his own age. Considering how the boy was used to spending most of his time with adults, his manner of speaking and acting reflected that. He was overly mature for his age, but also very charming. Being a bright kid, Julian picked up on the different social mannerisms, and quickly grew to become quite adapt at both socializing, as well as adapting to various situations. He continued doing sports, such as dancing, fencing and tennis, as well as being quite the talented artist; he didn't focus as much on his drawing skills as he did socializing and training himself to become better at handling people.
[Trigger Waning: Underage Sex:]
Unknown to the public, Julian had an affair with a married woman at the age of sixteen; she was the wife of some hotshot lawyer. Julian met her during a night out with some friends. The two of them got to talking and started meeting up for coffee. One thing lead to another and their 'friendship' took form of a sexual affair. This lasted for about a year and the two of them grew decidedly closer and closer, although Julian refused to be exclusive, considering how she was married already. The woman agreed.
After a year had passed, the two of them encountered a pregnancy scare and the married woman threatened to tell her husband about the affair, but Julian calmly talked her into at least going to the doctor to get it checked up properly. It turned out that the woman wasn't pregnant, but the affair ended regardless. After Julian pointed out that she had in fact had sex with a minor, the woman agreed to leave her husband out of it and the two of them separated and ended the affair.
[Trigger Waning Ends.]
As he reached his later teenage years and hormones started kicking in for full, Julian found a newfound passion for casual dating and sex (More so that what he had previously). He quickly realized that when it came to matters of genders, they mattered little. Although renown for being quite the... Tool, Julian himself claimed to be exceptionally picky; there had to be a spark, or at the very least, something to keep him both entertained and interested to begin with.
ADULTHOOD: It wasn't until he turned eighteen that Julian really settled his mind on focusing the rest of his days on getting into real estate and property. He started the plans of starting his own burlesque club right after graduation. College pretty much worked the same way for Julian as high school had; his interests and way of carrying himself didn't change much, apart from the fact that he was now actively planning on making himself a burlesque club called "Dirty Little Secrets" or often referred to (by him, mostly) to as "The DLS". The planning took the boy roughly two-three years before finally,everything was ready.
It was around this time that Julian requested a transfer to Bellefonte Academy - which was accepted. He kept up the planning even as he started college, studying business management. The building for his club was purchased in Montana, as it was where he'd transferred. The money was spent from his own savings, along with taking a loan from his parents, which he'd pay them back in full, plus extra for the time spent paying them back.
He made several business partners (employers along the way, both fellow students and educated partners that could help him properly run the club; basically, anyone interested). The club itself was a male/female burlesque club, hiring both male and female employers - holding open auditions for anyone above the age of eighteen. Right before the club itself opened, Julian got himself a Shiba Inu puppy and named him Marvin, after a robot that had amused him so when he was younger.
Now, "Dirty Little Secrets" has just opened, and Julian is looking forward to seeing how everything pans out. He's confident that the club will grow quite popular among both the school and the locals. The club even has some evenings open for those under eighteen as well - no alcohol served, of course. He's hoping that all his planning and all his expectations are going to be as fulfilling and successful as he expects it to be - because as his parents hammered into his head;
Nothing but the best was ever good enough, and excelling at everything was to be expected.
