Lucien Wraith Danvers
Take Control...
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR CITY
Full Name: Lucien Michael Danvers
Nicknames: Luke, Wraith
Gender: Male
Age: (Appears) 18
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Location: New York
Origin: OC
Play-By: Dylan O'Brien
Height: 5'9"
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Hazel
Typical Clothing/Uniform:
Very casual, mostly jeans and hoodies. Anything comfortable really. He usually looks very wrinkled and thrown together, as if he's found his clothes from the floor. Which he probably did.
Powers/Abilities
Luke manipulates what he vaguely refers to as 'shadow matter'. From shadows, he can conjure animals to control, which take on a very physical form until his focus is broken. He can teleport from one shadow to another, but so far only with absolutely no control over where he's going. Using shadows, his healing is accelerated, but it takes a toll. When he heals his body, it appears to damage him mentally, destabilizing him and causing him to hear whispering voices in the shadows around him, some times for days depending on the severity of the healing.
Team Affiliation:
Student at Xavier Institute
Personality:
How Luke behaves generally depends on how he's approached and by who. Adults, figures of authority, and most especially medical professionals set him on edge, causing him to be quick tempered, suspicious, and generally vindictive whether he has cause or not. Around people closer to his own age, or those who defy authority, it's a difference of night and day. He's less likely to strike out, generally agreeable, and social even. He enjoys showing off his powers, especially bitter towards humans for their hostilities towards mutants in the past and present. When threatened, his humanity drops away entirely and his ugly underside surfaces. The result is something close to a sociopathic personality, being friendly to some and homicidal to others.

History:
Born in the mid 1800's, he can't remember when exactly any longer, Lucien lived in a fairly well off family. His father was a police constable in Whitechapel, London, though they lived just outside of the impoverished district. When he was sixteen, he began waking up in random places - sometimes his sister's room, sometimes half way across London. At first his parents thought he was lying about not remembering how he got to these places during the night, but after his father handcuffed him to the bed and woke in the morning to find Lucien asleep in the garden they began to know something was wrong.
When one morning Lucien woke up in Whitechapel to find a group of men picking through his coat, he got into a fight which resulted in him being brutally beaten. After they left him in the wet cold, bloodied and half stripped, he began hearing the voices. By the time he walked home in the night by the moonlight, he was completely healed. Lucien told his sister about the voices, terrified he was being possessed by some evil spirit, Lucien swiftly found himself inside and insane asylum.
From there, things got much worse. All the treatments failed, naturally. Any physical damage they produced was healed in the nights as he lay strapped to the bed, and that only made the voices louder and more violent. After three attempts of lobotomization, he was locked in the most secure ward and kept under sedation. Years passed, and while everyone he knew grew old and died, he remained exactly the same. A handful of times they attempted to euthanize him, terrified by whatever he was, but those who tried were attacked by things in the shadows, or he healed before he could bleed out.
Eventually when the institute was shut down, a few of the orderlies had him drugged till he was unconscious, then locked him up in a metal box and buried him in the grounds behind the building. He remained there, his powers keeping him from starving, the voices growing to screams, until Xavier found him with cerebro. Luke had been driven insane by his time alone with the voices, and so in order to salvage some shred of the boy Xavier buried the boys memories in his mind, putting up a block between him and almost all his past.
Now all Luke knows of his time in the box is what the whispers tell him, and through the ghosts of memories he still has. From that, he picked his mutant name, Wraith.
