    Scott Summers also known as Cyclops stands at a tall 6' 3” and weighs only 195 pounds . He is wrapped with noticeable yet wiry muscle. His eyes are naturally brown though due to the nature of his powers they glow red as he can't turn his powers off. His hair is brown and is generally parted down the middle and barely reaches to his eyes. As to his preferred outfit he can been seen in any of his many various uniforms and as to which he wears seems to depend on the day, recently he has taken to a black leather like ensemble and a visor that is much lighter in weight than many older versions. Outside of work he wears a pair of ruby quarts sunglasses and can be seen in a wide variety of clothing depending on what his plans for the day happen to be.


Special traits/Physical traits:He always wears either Ruby Quartz glasses of his visor as they are needed in order to allow him to control his powers.


Skills:
    He is a skilled Tactician, pilot and also has received martial arts training in judo and aikido.

    Spatial Awareness: Cyclops seems to possess an uncanny sense of trigonometry, in this sense used to describe his observation of objects around himself and the angles found between surfaces of these objects. Cyclops has repeatedly demonstrated the ability to cause his optic blasts to ricochet and/or reflect off those objects in a trajectory to his liking. This is commonly called a "banked shot" when applied to this talent. Cyclops has been observed causing beams to reflect from over a dozen surfaces in the course of one blast, and still hit his intended target accurately. It is his sense of superhumanly enhanced spatial awareness that allows him to perform these feats as well.


Powers/Gift:Cyclops possesses the mutant ability to project a beam of heatless ruby-colored concussive force from his eyes, which act as inter-dimensional apertures between this universe and another. Cyclops' body constantly absorbs ambient energy, such as sunlight, from his environment into his body's cells that allows him to open the apertures. Cyclops' mind generates a psionic field that is attuned to the forces that maintain the apertures. Because this field envelops his body, it automatically shunts the other-dimensional particles back into their point of origin when they collide with his body. Thus, his body is protected from the effects of the particles, and even the thin membranes of his eyelids are sufficient to block the emission of energy. The synthetic ruby quartz crystal used to fashion the lenses of Cyclops' eyewear is resonant to his minds' psionic field and is similarly protected.

The width of Cyclops' optic blast is focused by his mind's psionic field with the same autonomic function that regulated his original eyes' ability to focus. As Cyclops focuses, the size of the apertures change and thus act as a valve to control the flow of particles and the beam's relative power. The height of Cyclops's eye-blast is controlled by his visor's adjustable slit. The beam's effective range is approximately 2,000 feet.

Due to a head injury, Cyclops is unable to shut off his optic blasts at will and must therefore wear ruby quartz lenses to block the beams.

Trustworthy: yes

Personality type (a paragraph or two will do): Scott has always been the shy loner or social outcast. Emotionally he tends to hold things close to the vest and tends to get attached though finds friendship very hard. He has a tendancy to be very strategetic and a good leader and does his best work while under the stress of the field

Attitude (A paragraph or two will do):He takes Xavier's dream very seriously and it has been the very cornerstone for his life since he was taken in by Preofessor X. However over time he has slowly become grim and more serious than ever from the various emotional disasters that have rocked his life. He finds it difficult to stay close to his wife due to the various times she has “died” only to be reborn. This has led to an emotional and physical estrangement to occur. Though having hosted the Spirit of Apocalypse hasn't helped his emotional well being either.

Is the character confident in his/herself: yes

Wise:In his own way

Caring:yes

Leader: Yes

Brave:Yes

Fears: Jean dieing... again, not sure on the rest

Likes and dislikes: He likes Jean, Fishing(he worked for a fisherman), things he dislikes would be those that persecute mutants and being alone...

Pass times:Fishing, teaching, and working on Xaviers dream to take place eventually.

Parapanelia: The mask Cyclops wears to prevent random discharge is lined with powdered ruby quartz crystal. It incorporates two longitudinally mounted flat lenses that can lever inward providing a constantly variable exit slot. The inverted clamshell mechanism is operated by a twin system of miniature electrical motors. As a safety factor there is a constant positive closing pressure provided by springs. The mask itself is made of high-impact cycolac plastic. There is an overriding finger-operated control mechanism on either side of the mask, and normal operation is through a flat micro-switch installed in the thumb of either glove.

Pet(s): none

History:
I got most of this inormation from Marvel

    Scott Summers was the first of two sons born to Major Christopher Summers, a test pilot for the U.S. Air Force, and his wife Katherine. Christopher was flying his family home from vacation when their plane was attacked by a spacecraft from the interstellar Shi'ar Empire. To save their lives, Katherine pushed Scott and his brother Alex out of the plane with the only available parachute. Scott suffered a head injury upon landing, thus forever preventing him from controlling his mutant power by himself.

    With their parents presumed dead, the authorities separated the two boys. Alex was adopted, but Scott remained comatose in a hospital for a year. On recovering, he was placed in an orphanage in Omaha, Nebraska that was secretly controlled by his future enemy, the evil geneticist Mister Sinister.

    As a teenager, Scott came into the foster care of Jack Winters, a mutant criminal known as the Jack O'Diamonds. After Scott began to suffer from severe headaches he was sent to a specialist who discovered that lenses made of ruby quartz corrected the problem. Soon after, Scott's mutant power first erupted from his eyes as an uncontrollable blast of optic force. The blast demolished a crane, causing it to drop its payload toward a terrified crowd. Scott saved lives by obliterating the object with another blast, but the bystanders believed that he had tried to kill them and rallied into an angry mob. Scott fled, escaping on a freight train.

    Winters sought to use Scott's newfound talent in his crimes, and physically abused the young boy when he initially refused. However, Scott's display of power had attracted the attention of the mutant telepath Professor Charles Xavier, who teamed up with F.B.I. agent Fred Duncan in their mutual attempt to find Scott. Scott was rescued from Winters' clutches and was enlisted by Xavier as the first member of the X-Men, a team of young mutants who trained to use their powers in the fight for human/mutant equality.

    As Cyclops, Scott became deputy leader of the X-Men. While he was a skilled tactician, his social skills were lacking. Scott had fallen in love with his teammate Jean Grey, but his reserved demeanor prevented him from expressing his feelings for her for years. When Xavier's other original recruits left the fold following an encounter with the sentient island-being Krakoa, Cyclops stayed on as deputy leader of the new team.

    Shortly thereafter, the cosmic entity known as the Phoenix Force took Jean's place. When it committed suicide, Scott believed the love of his life had died and he left the X-Men. During his time away from the team, Scott met fishing boat captain Lee Forrester who helped him work through his grief. Scott eventually returned to the X-Men whereupon he met Madelyne Pryor, a woman who bore an uncanny resemblance to Jean. Unaware that Madelyne was a clone of Jean created by Sinister, Scott fell in love with Madelyne and they were soon married. Madelyne fell pregnant and bore Scott a son named Nathan Christopher.

    When the real Jean emerged from suspended animation, Scott abandoned his wife and son and rejoined the other original X-Men in establishing a new team, X-Factor. During a demonic invasion of New York City, X-Factor and the X-Men fought against a super-powered and insane Madelyne. The invasion was thwarted after Madelyne perished in combat with Jean.

    Later, the mutant warlord named Apocalypse infected baby Nathan with a techno-organic virus. To save his son's life, Scott had to allow a member of the Clan Askani to transport Nathan two millennia into the future, where it had been foreseen that he would deliver the world from Apocalypse’s clutches. X-Factor disbanded soon after, and its members returned to the ranks of the X-Men. Scott and his long-time love Jean were married, and whilst on their honeymoon their spirits were taken into the timestream by the Clan Askani’s matriarch. Arriving in the future, they inhabited new bodies and raised Nathan for twelve years. When they returned to their own time and bodies, Nathan remained in the future and ultimately matured into his time's greatest hero: Cable.

    Following Professor X's arrest for crimes committed as the evil psionic entity Onslaught, Scott assumed the role of leadership of the X-Men once more. Soon after, the government sponsored mutant-hunting operation known as "Zero Tolerance" took effect, and the villainous Bastion captured the X-Men. In his attempt to destroy mutantkind, Bastion placed a nanotech bomb inside Scott's body. The X-Men escaped, and the mutant doctor named Cecilia Reyes saved Scott's life. Scott and his wife soon took a leave of absence from the X-Men for a period of recuperation.

    Not long after returning to the team, Scott and Jean soon found themselves embroiled in Apocalypse's bid for cosmic power by assembling "The Twelve" - a group of mutants who would determine the fate of their kind that included Scott, Jean, and Cable. They were wired to a machine that would channel their awesome energies into Apocalypse, allowing him to absorb the body of the time-tossed powerful mutant teenager known as X-Man. As his teammates fell around him, a powerless Scott saved X-Man and merged with the would-be conqueror to create a new evil entity. Jean detected Scott's psyche inside Apocalypse and prevented the X-Men from destroying him, however he was presumed dead by most of his teammates. Only Jean and Cable refused to believe Scott had perished.

    Investigating rumors he was alive, the pair found him in the birthplace of Apocalypse in Akkaba, Egypt, struggling to reassert his mind over the villain's psyche. Ultimately, Jean was able to physically rip Apocalypse's essence from Scott's body using her mental powers, and Cable destroyed it with his own powers.
    Scott left for a small period of recuperation, during which he met and reconciled with his father. Afterwards, Scott returned to the X-Men, but his association with Apocalypse had given him a grimmer, more serious personality than ever before. As a result, many of his relationships became strained, including his marriage to Jean. Scott recently sought the counsel of fellow teammate Emma Frost in order to try and fix his strained relationship with his wife...


What is he/she doing now: Leading the X-men

Relationship with other characters: Married to Jean Grey

Special feelings toward other characters: Loves Jean Grey

How he/she reacts to other characters: Depends on the person and how much respect he carries for them.

How other characters react toward him/her: I'm not other characters so it is hard to say

Extra info:

Sample RP:
    Home, that is what the Mansion was, with its basketball courts, and students running about. The chaos of the place had always been home ever since he had come as a teenager. Ever since he had met Jean Grey he had always been part of himself and yet losing her time and time again had hurt him more than he wanted to share. Leaving her was something that he would never do that was something he was sure of. Yet at times in his quiet musing he wondered how much more he could take.

    He had seen her Die, he had lived through the grief that it had caused and the same cycle had started again. The Phoenix the creature that had led to her constant deaths and rebirths... caused part of the emotional scarring that he bore but not all of it. Perhaps he was just to hard on himself or expected to much from himself. He had taken Apocalypse into himself and fought him for how long he didn't know but his son and wife had saved him taking the thing that had taken his life from him and destroyed it.

    The experience had changed him and he had withdrawn again as he had with his first wife with whom his son he had conceived. His son that was in fact older than he was from his time in the future to save his life. Yet he could not get close to his wife again. Something about him had changed in his time with Apocalypse and he hadn't quite figured out what it was. That was why he had asked Emma to help him as a counselor to help him figure out a way to patch up his marriage with his wife. What he had not expected was her putting on his Wifes Costume the one from her time as the Dark Phoenix. He hadn't wanted her in his and his wifes room and her putting on that outfit had annoyed him. It hadn't been what he wanted but why hadn't he been able to go to his wife and talk about his insecurities. It was something that he couldn't figure out it annoyed him to a near breaking point that he wanted to talk to his wife yet he couldn't find the words to explain what was happening to him.

    The dream was faltering equality between humans and mutants was it really possible. Why was it that every time the X-men saved the lives of a few people or a city all they saw was more fear coursing through the city streets. Such were the thoughts of the Field leader of the X-men the man that felt the world standing on his shoulders. The person that when the push came to shove he was expected to know where to push. The leader that wasn't good enough, the husband that couldn't bring himself to go to his wife. The Man that had watched his friends and Family die around him. The turbulence of his mind was clearly visible on the false smile that was fitted on his face. His haggard drawn eyes weren't visible beneath the deep red of his glasses, the glasses that he couldn't take off simply due to an inability to control his powers.

    He turned to face the place that had been his home for so long that no other place truly could be his home. The students that would eventually take the Places of each of the other X-men as they aged and fell to the earth, but would time take such a toll on his wife. Wasn't the Phoenix Eternal would it not exist till the end of time so would she not return long after he died or would she will herself to remain dead. He could remember the fiery passion that had been their teenage years but that seemed to have dried up to nothing, perhaps they were both just waiting for the phoenix to come along and take her away again as it always did. He had seen it stirring though perhaps it was is imagination that had made it seem like it was there in her again. In the end though was it the simple fact that She could become the Phoenix again and die again and him have to bury her again that made him withdraw from her. Was he trying to cushion the blow of grief if it chose to come at him again.

    “Why did I ask Emma for help, why am I drawing away from my wife? Why can't I go to her to talk to her like I used to?”


    His words came from his lips unwarranted as he continued his eternal walk of solitude along the outer edges of the Mansion Grounds outside of the gazes of the students and the other X-Men.
