Abilities
Mutation: Illyana has the main mutant ability of being able to teleport herself places using what is called 'Stepping Discs.' In using these stepping discs, Illyana must first transport herself through the astral dimension. As to why this happens it is unknown, but it is thought that she does it because of the fact that it is one of the places with the most power in it. As to just how far she can teleport herself, Illyana has so far managed to teleport over continents.
Another thing that is thought with her teleportation abilities is that she can travel through time and space. Now Illyana has never out and out tried this, and the thought of it actually scares her. Thus in a way, to her it is an exaggeration of her abilities and that.
Illyana has a second 'mutation' in the sense that she is highly skilled in magic Illyana's powers are limited to minor spells, the summoning of her soulsword, astral projection as well as the ability to detect magical presences.
Skills:
Soulsword-She is extremely skilled when it comes to using her sword. With this, she has the ability to use any sword although they just don't feel as right to her as her Soulsword does.
Hand to Hand Combat-Illyana was taught basic hadn to hand combat by her brother Mikhail. She may not be extremely good at it or anything like that, but she still knows a fair amount to actually be classed as good.
Personality: Illyana's moods run the gamut depending on what mask she decides to show that day. She is capable of extremes of emotion, going from sullen to enraged at the drop of a hat. When pressed, she can be bossy and hurtful, rarely thinking about the consequences of what she says or does. By the same token, she can also be sweet and thoughtful, doing what needs to be done in order to help her friends or teammates. Illyana feels alone in the world, disconnected from her fellows. She can be withdrawn one second and coy and flirtatious the next. In a bad mood, she will lash out with her words and anything else within reach. Most of the time she hides herself behind jokes and sarcastic quips, trying to keep people away from her so they don't realize what's going on inside of her. She is leery of people and slow to trust, which, given her past, makes a lot of sense. People hurt you, get what they want and then hurt you again. That's just the way it goes. However once she does manage to trust someone and let them get close to her, she is loyal and will fiercely protect them with everything she has.
Illyana also has a bit of a big brother complex. Piotr is perfect and wonderful and kind and can do no wrong. Anyone who says otherwise or makes some kind of mean comment regarding her older brother will face her full wrath, which is really nothing to scoff at. Piotr is the kind of person that Illyana wants to be but that she feels she will never live up to. Oddly enough, rather than making her resentful and spiteful, she views him as a knight in shining armor who, despite all his power, could not save her. She doesn't blame him; she blames herself for not being strong enough to hold out until he could come rescue her.
Formal education and Illyana don't really mix. She has a very short attention span plus, given everything that's happened in her life, she doesn't see any real need for her to be educated in the normal way. She picks most things up rather easily when she bothers to apply herself. It's getting her to care long enough to sit down and concentrate that's the real problem.
One thing that she keeps hidden though is the fact that Illyana has a dark side. A major dark side. Coming from Limbo has affected Illyana in ways that nobody could ever imagine. She has seen and done things that she isn't proud of. She is an angry girl that tries her hardest to be good as she fears that her dark side could take over and she will once again become Darkchylde.[
History:
Sample Post: Illyana Rasputin was not the type of girl that liked to swim. It wasn't that she wasn't good at it or anything like that, it was more that after growing up in a place like Limbo...Well, there wasn't really any need for water in her limbo or anything like that. After all, how many demons tended to wash themselves? So, in a way she didn't really need to swim...It was moments like this that made her contemplate going back to Limbo to escape from things like Swimming Classes “Stupid swimming...” she muttered softly to herself as she walked around.
Brushing a tiny bit of light blonde hair out of her eyes, she tilted her head to the side slightly ass she glanced around at her surroundings, her light chilly blue eyes narrowed slightly as she tried to figure out whether or not she really wanted to go to this. She knew that she kind of had to...it would make her even better at swimming considering she didn't really have that many skills or anything like that. Again, it came from growing up in a place like Limbo.
Sighing softly to herself, she closed her eyes for a moment before heading towards the Sub Basement area where their swimming pool was. Walking in, her eyes landed on Jubilee there, and her often chilly blue eyes lit up slightly at the sight of her best friend “Jubes!” she cried out in a happy voice, glad to see her friend, happy that she wasn't the only one here that she knew or was friends with. That would make her even happier right now.
Smiling at the teacher, she gave him a rather fake perky look “Illyana Rasputin Reporting for Lessons...” she murmured softly not entirely sure why she was acting rather stupid right now.
Raising one of her eyebrows slightly at the teacher, she sighed softly as she waited for a response from him. This was obviously going to be a long class at the rate this was going. She knew she shouldn't have come here now.
