Name:Mattew Parkman
Age: 36
Power(if applicable): Matt Can hear other peoples thoughts
Personality: Matt is determind, but he lacks self belief. Sometimes he can seem short tempered. There are also times when he hates hearing someones thoughts. Though he does use his power inappropriately at times
History:
Matt Parkman is a police officer with the Los Angeles Police Department. He has tried to become a detective, but has flunked the qualifying test three times most likely due to his dyslexia. Parkman is a mind-reader; he can hear the thoughts of people around him, which he first realizes after hearing the thoughts of Molly Walker, a little girl who was hiding from a serial killer named Sylar. When he found the girl, suspicion of how he knew her location led to his arrest.
Appearance/Celeb: Greg Grunberg
Gender: Male
Roleplay sample:
Taken from TCN (I can do a Matt one if needed though)
Life was so infuriating around these parts. Xavier's Institute might sound like a tempting prospect from the outside but, honestly? The place was overrated. Lucas Bishop wasn't looking for an easy way out by any means but he was expecting to find a place where there would be no discrimination. Hell, there were blue people around the place made, this did make him feel like less of a freak, being black meant nothing. He had to admit, around these parts nobody judged for outward appearance and few people even looked at his scar.
There was a difference between the outside & in the inside however. Xavier's was not the place of equality at all. Just like any other school there were the golden boys and girls, thens there was everyone else. Bishop was one of those student that never seemed to shine in any class. He was frustrated & had sort of stopped putting the effort in any more. After all the teachers always seemed at a bit of a loss for exactly what to do with him during training sessions.
Still, the grounds of the place were a lot nicer than the urban atmosphere he had been raised in. Bishop stopped walking for a second to admire the vast shrubbery at the front of the school before continuing on his journey away from the school, away from another person who at first seemed to have accepted him with open arms. He stopped once more when he heard the voice to his left
"You look troubled, young man"
Bishop couldn't believe what he was looking at. The silver haired man in front of him looked to be about the same age as Xavier. He looked pleasant, he could pass as a highly respectable gentleman if it weren't for the helmet he held under his arm... not to mention the cape. Bish had planned leaving the school in the middle of the night to avoid conversations like this
"Maybe I am troubled, old man. But what do you care?"
