Bio: | Player Info Name: Sara Email Address: magikfanfic AT hotmail DOT com and magikfanfic AT gmail DOT com IM/MSN Username: AIM: magikfanfic Basic Info Real Name: Paige Elisabeth Guthrie Nicknames: Country Mouse, Sunshine, Paigey Code Name: Husk Affiliation: X-Men Occupation: Student Education: Paige finished high school at Xavier's and is currently working on college courses while also aiding in the training of the younger students. Canon: Other: XG Physical Age/Birthdate: 19/January 13 Height: 5'6" Weight: 140lbs. Hair: Blonde. Paige keeps it short, normally anywhere between chin length and just a little bit longer so that she can tie it back sometimes. Eyes: Blue Appearance: Paige has a very clean, fresh, country look to her. She has clear skin that is covered with freckles. Her eyes are wide, and they brighten when she's interested in something or when she smiles. She's attractive but feels that she lacks the full degree of stunning that's almost inherent in so many of the X-women. Until she smiles. Paige is gorgeous when she smiles. She's a little on the thin side though that can be deceptive as she is finely toned due to all the exercise and training that she participates in. Paige is a jeans and a t-shirt, pair of sweats kind of girl. She dresses for comfort more than anything else and does not bother with what colors look good on her or with make-up or anything like that. It's not that she doesn't like to dress up but more than it feels weird to her to spend more money on clothes than her family would have earned in a year. When she does dress up, she appears more awkward and self-conscious than she does in denim and cotton. Due to her powers, Paige does not form calluses or permanently scar. Physical markings of these kinds tear off along with her outer layer of skin when she husks. Things built into her genetic code, such as freckles, moles, hair and eye color, all return when she shifts back to her normal form. Played By: Clea Duvall Powers, Abilities and Stats Mutant Powers: Paige is a metamoprh with the ability to strip off her outer layer of skin--or husk as in a corncob--to reveal a new skin underneath. This new skin can take various forms but does require Paige to concentrate on what she wants be it diamond or stone or metal, etc. She can also simply husk off one skin to leave her with a fresh one underneath if she wants to avoid taking a shower, though this use of her power has been deemed disgusting by her teammates on occasion. Paige can only hold the husked form for so long and if she is injured in her new skin--aka cuts in diamond form--those injuries will remain when she reverts back to human form, which can be dangerous. Her new skin will be as invulnerable to surroundings as the element would normally be,but any damage sustained remains when that skin is done. With practice, Paige should be able to husk into things besides solid objects, such as gases, various liquids, etc. as well as focus her power to specific parts of her body rather than husking herself as a whole. Paige cannot shed her skin indefinitely. She will eventually tire to the point of fatigue. She also needs time before she sheds to the new skin or the form underneath will be incomplete, leaving her more rather than less exposed to attack. Hearing: Normal Eyesight: 20/20 but Paige wears glasses to make herself seem more intellectual. Dexterity/Agility: Paige is clumsy. It's not just that she doesn't pay attention; it's that she trips over anything, everything and, sometimes, nothing at all. Physical Strength: Normal for someone her age and in her physical condition. General Health: Good IQ: Well above average. Mental Health: Paige seems pretty well adjusted, but she tends to take on too much responsibility for everything that goes wrong with anyone that she knows. She also has issues relating to people, especially her family, which results in a lot of disagreements. Paige also has pretty low self-esteem. As such she spends almost all of her time trying to prove that she is capable and worthy of being a part of the X-Men. Skills: Paige is very good with computers, chemistry, physics, mathematics and other sciences. In fact, she pretty good with just about all book learning. It's common sense that she's lacking. Equipment: Her glasses. Background Family: Parents: Thomas Guthrie (deceased) and Lucinda Guthrie Siblings: Sam, Joelle, Joshua, Elizabeth, Melody, Jebediah, Lewis, Ann. Religion: Baptist although Paige doesn't agree with a lot of the organized religion's teachings. History: From the day that her brother Sam left home to train at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Paige was bound and determined to develop her own mutant gifts so that she could not only join her brother but also show him up. On her thirteenth birthday, determined to make her mutant powers appear by hell or high water, Paige began to perform a number of tests for herself. She tried telekinesis on a turtle, dumped herself in a bucket full of ice in order to try and control her own temperature and even jumped out of the hayloft in an attempt to fly. None of these resulted in the hoped for conclusion although she collected a rather interesting collection of bumps and bruises. After watching her daughter throughout all the attempts, Momma Guthrie finally told her that all things take as much time as God wants them to. Paige, however, wasn't terribly comforted by this statement and, standing in the moonlight outside her home, basically told God to get it over and done with before she tore out of her own skin, which was when she found a loose chunk of her skin and ripped it off, revealing a slightly rocky Paige-girl beneath. She didn't know what her power was, but she was still grateful to have it. And then, for some unknown reason and despite her fervent desire to join Sam at Xavier's, Paige hide her mutant ability away from the rest of the family for a number of years. After a visit of Sam's went horribly awry, however, Paige had to expose her powers in order to save him from danger at which point she decided that it might be in her own best interests to enroll at Xavier's, not to mention that by this point Sam had graduated to being a full fledged X-Man and Paige once again felt threatened and needed to prove herself. Once Paige graduated into the ranks of the X-Men, she had to deal with her feelings about being in Sam's shadow. Eventually, she began to realize that they could both be special, but that revelation didn't keep her from trying her hardest to top her brother. Following the demise of Jay's gf Julia, Paige and Sam decided to stay at the Guthrie farm and help the family out while remaining on as auxiliary X-Men. After a couple of weeks there, Paige returned to the Xavier's to prove her mettle by fighting alongside the X-Men and also hoping to help Jay deal with his feelings or resentment, guilt and loss. Since rejoining the X-Men, Paige found herself drawn to one of the new arrivals, a young man named Jonothan Starsmore. The two found that they were attracted to each other, though Jono kept trying to push her away. Paige resisted wanting only to be his friend. Eventually, they both admitted to the fact that they had fallen in love and began a serious relationship that has not met with the best reception from friends and family, though Paige is just stubborn enough to not give the slightest bit of a damn. She and Jono have gone through a lot in the relatively short time that they've been together from the haunting in Germany to Jono's body restored to Sam almost dying to Jono blowing his restored body back apart. All in all, Paige has proven herself as a valuable member of the X-Men and is involved in training and field missions. AMX History if applicable: None Personality: Self-assured, smart, witty, snide and utterly naive at the same time. Paige would like to think that she's a badass and has been an X-Man from the word go, but it's not at all true. There are a lot of areas where she's lacking, humility being one of those. It's not that she lacks the potential and the drive to be a leader and a good hero and more that her ego and her in-ability to admit that she's wrong, keep her from being able to truly learn from her experiences. Being a mutant and a hero like her brother Sam was what she wanted from the day that he left the farm. And the drive to prove herself as better than he is in every aspect of her mutant life overshadows the natural intelligence and ability of this girl. She's driven by all the wrong things. That said, she has been learning to tone it down but her enthusiasm to one-up her brother still occasionally drives her more than it should. She also has a tendency to try and shake off the perception that she's just a country hick by reading large books and trying to get as much of the twang out of her voice as possible. That said she's also a sweet person who tries--and sometimes fails--to be empathic as possible. She usually falls short in her attempt because of the fact that she approaches people's problems as though she has a ready solution rather than as a person just trying to help them find their own solution. When she isn't being pretentious and all-knowing, though,she generally manages to get along with most people unless they call her a hick then the fighting gloves come off. Paige doesn't try for witty pretense or, rather, she doesn't try for witty pretense anymore since she discovered that she's not as good at it as she'd like to be,and she has a tendency to scrap plans that don't go her way. Paige is at her most likable when she lets her guard down and admits that she might not have everything in the world figured out. Mannerisms and quirks: Paige tries very hard to control her accent but it comes out, especially when she is upset or tired or otherwise stressed. She rolls her shoulders, stares at the ceiling while thinking, fidgets, twitches. Paige has a lot of energy and seems to almost always be moving. She tends to wind herself up so much that she barely remembers to sleep or eat.

Dislikes: Fighting with Jono, fighting with Jay, fighting with Sam, her accent, carpeted floors, sleeping. Relationships: Friends: Jono, Rogue, Jubilee, Angelo, Kurt, Kitty, Clarice, Jay, Sam, Mel.

Marital status: Unmarried but involved in a serious relationship Past Relationships: None Present Relationships: XG Jono Planned Relationships: XG Jono Sexual Preference: Straight Info at a glance: Paige fidgets. She touches things all the time. She plays with her hair, chews her lips and fingers and glasses and pens and pencils. Sample RP Exempt.
