Family: Nick doesn't have much family to speak of.

Significant Other: He had a special person in his life once, but it's all in the past. Now he's alone.

Personality: Nick is more often then not cocky and somewhat arrogant. He is tough, brilliant, and doesn't let others get in the way of his goal. He's passionate and fuled by his emotions which results in him being rather impluse. With his level of witt and brilliance his impulsive decisions often work out for the good. He is pretty intense and isn't afraid of exposing the evil in modern day life. He doesn't belive the world to be black and white, he sees it more of a place with different shades of grey. But he has a strong sense of justice and will fight for it. He is hard on those around him, but only so that they learn to adapt to the new world around them. Nick does care for those around him, and has no problem doing what's right, even if it comes at a cost. Nick was always a leader, he often took the leadership role whether he was asked to or not. He was never one to just follow along. He's outspoken and stands up for what he believes no matter the cost. He has a lot of passion and has an outspoken nature. This doesn't always lead him to the best situations. He also struggles alot with authority and doing as ordered. If he agrees with the orders given then no problem, but if he doesn't agree then he'll do whatever he thinks is right. And that's another thing, with all his confidence he thinks he can't be wrong.

Habits: Nick has a habit of running his hand through his hair or rubbing the back of his neck when nervous or stressed. He never realizes he dose it, but he does it often.

Casual Wear:

Physical Mutation: Nick doesn't have any physical mutations. His mutation is all beneath the surface.

Abilities: Nick has enhanced senses. Basically those five senses you learned about in kindergarten, his are ten times what yours are. He can hear a heart beat from a mile away, track a sent better than any blood hound, see in the dark and at farther distances than you could ever dream of, taste even the faintest of flavors, and let's not forget that sense of touch he's got the steadiest hands you'll ever know.

Weapons: Because Nick's mutation can not be used offensively he carries a set of five Bowie knives. He is talented in throwing the knives and is known to never miss a target. He can also handle the knives quite well in hand to hand combat.

Weakness: Nick's mutations doesn't provide him much protection. He is just as vulnerable as any other human. Though because of his heightened senses Nick is more sensitive to pain, loud noises, and bright lights. Typically he compensates by preparing himself for the oncoming stimulation, but if caught unaware he can be caused a lot of pain very easily.

Backstory: Nick was the only son to the worst kind of father. His mother didn't stick around long enough to stand up for him. No, cancer took her before Nick even had a chance to know her. So from then on Nick was raised by his father who was CEO of some big brand company that everyone hated. Well, it was more the day-care nannies that raised him, considering his dad left for work before he woke and didn't come home until Nick was back in bed for the night. So that was a fun childhood. Nick ended up hating his dad, and anyone who reminded him of his father. As soon as he turned eighteen Nick took off for the military. It got him as far away from his father as possible and cut off any connections to the man. So it was a good fit. After several years Nick eventually made it as a medic in the marine corps. As for his powers, well he was a late bloomer. He didn't start noticing them until he was about 17. Though he kept it a secret. His father was part of a company who helped develop devices to control mutants so the whole coming out to his dad situation wouldn't end well in Nick's favor. And anyways it wasn't really a power any one could see so what's the harm. Anyways while in the marine corps his powers were helpful, though the process of learning to hone them was hell. Eventually he got the hang of it, but after awhile others were starting to get suspicious so he decided it best to leave before he was taken away. Once back in America he started a residency at a well known hospital. Wasn't long before he got a hell of a reputation. He was a damn good doctor, but he also wasn't a kiss up and was confrontational to the higher ups who were used to yes men. So eventually he was thrown out with his license revoked. He was at rock bottom. Not to mention that by this point his dad's company was producing more anti-mutant products daily. So there was that cherry on top of the hell of a life he had going for him. That's when he was found by a certain rag tag group of mutants, the X-men. He was brought in, not as a student, nor a teacher even, but to be a doctor of sorts and a tracker for those times Xavier is unable to locate someone.

Other: Ever since he was little he loved helping people, that's what led him to become a doctor later in life. Aside from that he enjoys sarcasm as well as dry humor in general. He also just cares for people in general. More often then not he's the guy routing for the underdog. He enjoys 80's and 90's rock bands such as Beastie Boys and Journey. He hates the pretentious privileged type who think people are disposable, hates being told what to do, and being treated as if he were a child. Nick never took too kindly to people who treated others like dirt. Got into alot of fights because of it too. Nick also has two tattoos as shown below:
