William

William tentatively raised his hand in the air.

"My name is William Klaskovsky. Thirteen years of age. I'm a very convincing writer."

Sitting back down with an almost inaudible sigh of relief, he turned to regard the closest thing he had to an ally in this new environment. "Guess that answers your question, then?" he murmured quietly. His pen moved in conjunction with his eyes when they danced across the other students in the room, analyzing and storing all the information that was freely so easily served to him for later use.

William Klaskovsky regarded the other boy as though he were covered in acid-spitting insects.

Name: William Klaskovsky
Age: 13
Gender: Male


Backstory (Event that caused character X to get the power):

        Prior to his inauguration into The Union, William was an orphan in every sense of the word. He bounced around various child support systems and facilities entirely alone, and be it his unnaturally sunlight-deprived pallor, hair the color of India Ink, or crystalline blue eyes whose skittish shifting belied a certain world-weariness,  he was actively alienated from his peers. Due to his young age, the specific details of his Parents' "disappearance" were withheld from him, and the only physical article he received was a fountain pen: a subtly complex and ornate artifact that has always felt comfortable in his hand. Later on in his life, he began to write personal mementos in an attempt to dissuade loneliness; fake letters to a father he never knew. Simply writing with the pen that everyone claimed his parents had cherished as an heirloom made him feel closer to them, part of a lineage greater than his own dismal life. It remained this way until a worker in his current orphanage discovered these "letters" between father and son in a routine cleaning. Stories of baseball games that never happened, and school that never existed to be boring. William was expelled permanently from the social security system that very week for living a life that had never truly existed outside of paper. Thankfully, watchful eyes looking for strange events exactly like this one took notice: it was rather unusual to see a ten-year-old so brutally punished for the first known case of "orphanage fraud". Those watchful eyes were followed by comforting voices and beckoning hands soon after, and William Klaskovsky's life as a full-time border began.

Power:

      William sustains the ability to temporarily influence the conscious thought of others through his writing. Utilizing the fountain pen (which he constantly keeps about his person), any statement he writes on an adjoining piece of paper will be held true by those that read it. This being said, he lacks the ability to maintain more than three of these separate "notes" at one time, and no anomalous properties will manifest on new slips of paper until one of the previous has been destroyed or rendered completely illegible. In addition to this, the created "truthful" statement must be considered well within the realm of feasibility by the recipient, or his abilities will fail to have any influence. For instance, a sentence reading "The sky is purple." handed to any normal individual would simply be dismissed as nonsense instead of having the intended effect. Note that while the amount of notes are limited, the number of influenced subjects are not, so long as the statement is not addressed to an individual. Not even the original writer is immune to the effects. For this reason, William has developed safety measures surrounding the use of his unique abilities, and refuses to use his father's pen unless it is labelled for a specific individual.

Romantically Available (Yes or no): Technically yes, but you may be on the receiving end of a lot blank stares if you try.
