Special Characteristics: nothing really
General Description:
Shawn is a pretty average looking male for his age. He's not the hottest guy in town, and he sure ain't the worst to look at. He's got brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. He has a light complexion, and has a rather friendly appearance. He's the kind of guy you wouldn't mind walking up to ask directions from. Shawn has some muscle under his shirt for the kind of person he is, nerd and all, which might surprise some people.
Average Clothing: Shawn wears what he finds comfortable. That would usually include any kind of shirt, jacket and mostly jeans, plus regular sneakers. He doesn't dress up unless he's going to a fancy restaurant or a wedding. He frequently wears wrist-bans and different types of necklaces, usually with crosses.
Likes: Technology, His powers, Helping others, Getting up early, Being a senior, Math, Science, Girls, Making friends, Cracking jokes, Going to movies, Coffee, Video Games, God
Dislikes: Black Rose, People who dislike mutants basically, Violence, Someone beating him at a technical problem, Having his power weakened, Loosing control, Hurting someone's feelings, Predijuice, Animal abuse, the thought of his parents finding out of his power
Strengths: Smart, Nice, Charming, Romantic, Helpful, Caring, Cautious
Weaknesses: Krothium, Fire, Dehydration, Hot girls, His Family, A good math/science equation, Can over-react/get angry/annoyed easily, can be kinda stupid when it comes to girls
Skills/Powers: Along with being a very smart person in math, science and anything relating to technology, Shawn has a special power and that power is, Cryokinesis, or the ability to manipulate ice.
Cryokinesis or ice manipulation - Basically, Shawn can manipulate/create ice whenever he wants! Well, unless their isn't any moisture or H20 in the air, or if he's in a very hot place like a beach. But usually, it's good temperatures to do so. The way he manipulates the ice is with his mind obviously. He can pretty much make it do whatever he wants; make it into a weapon, an igloo, or heck, a pop-sickle. His over-all body temperature (as of right now, since he's just discovered this new gift) is a little below the average 98.7. He's getting used to it though, and he's attempting to control it, since it can be sort of hard telling people why he's as cold as ice. That's why you'll probably see him wearing jackets often. And unsurprisingly if you offer him a snow-cone he won't eat it, he's had brain-freeze too many times to add any more.
-Obviously, the Krothium will weaken, or utterly cancel out this ability. The enemy of ice is fire, or anything heat related, and is one of the biggest threats to Shawn. The lack of moisture or H20 would definitely be something to weaken or cause him to not use ice. The limits to Shawn's Cryokinesis, even if he doesn't know it yet, aren't very limited. It depends on how far he lets it go.The farthest he could go with it is probably a mini blizzard in his general area, about 30 feet all around him. However, if Shawn makes it SO cold to kill a human, he could injure himself, and that would be bad.
He also has this other ability that makes him so smart...
Superhuman intelligence
-Like above, the Prothium will indeed mess with his mind when trying to use his intelligence to solve a difficult problem. Headaches are also bad for his mind as well, migraines being the worst. High levels of stress can effect him as well. The limits of his intelligence don't go beyond the high level technical problems with any sort of electrical equipment. He's very smart in math, but give him a history or English problem, he won't be able to help you there, it's specifically for technical type problems.
Now, his superhuman intelligence would have to be rated very high, while his ice manipulation can be judged. He can't control it very well, and the only time you might want to run and hide from a guy like this is when he gets upset or angry. He might just freeze your whole body up.
General Personality: Shawn is your basic nerd. No, not the kind of nerd that starts blabbing off mathematical equations and comic book character situations... The nerd that happens to be very intelligent in ways others can't imagine (due to his ability mostly), and the kind of nerd who enjoys helping others solve problems.
Shawn's basic first nature when someone's having trouble with something is to go help them out, no matter who it is. He's a very nice guy, and sometimes wonders why everyone can't be nice and help out others instead of make the situation worse.
Going into that, we can say that Shawn's a very curious being. He asks questions, he tends to ask a lot of questions to make a grown man stick his fingers in his ears and go 'lalalala' to block out his inquiries. But can he help it? No, not really. e it's the right, and nice thing to do, but he has to have something to do!! He hates just sitting, or standing around, he yearns to move around, and with OCD comes the OBSESSIVE nature to help and do things. Plus ask those bugging questions.
Shawn's a smart guy like said, he does have super intelligence, especially in the field of technology. He could de-bug your computer in half the time a regular technician could with the handbook of your 1999 dell!
Shawn tends to stray away from big crowds, he tends to get uncomfortable in big crowds, and he doesn't like tight places, which city crowds tend to be. He likes to take short cuts to avoid those kind of places. But he doesn't just isolate himself form another person, he does have friends. Many of his friends are other gifted (or mutants) he prefers calling him and others like him, gifted, since it just sounds better.
Around his friends, Shawn is very loose, and likes to joke around, he knows he can be silly and weird around his pals because they won't judge him. He picks his friends carefully, and won't go into the wrong crowd, like druggies or something. ha ha. Don't do drugs kids! xD
Shawn has a pretty good sense of humor, he likes to say things that are both true, but in a way that doesn't seem too grudging or offensive to the person he's talking to or about. Now brings his thoughts on Black Rose...
What the mutant capturing gang (black rose) does, is wrong, hell, way WRONG! But he knows that he can't just say, 'hey, you know, we're just like you, past all the unusual abilities...so, could you stop trying to experiment on us?', and expect them to! So, he looks at it from a different perspective. He doesn't want to physically hurt one of the guys in the group, he isn't a violent person honestly, but knows that it could come to that one day. He's hoping that perhaps the Black Rose will one day just stop operating and the people in there would just give up and stop bothering the gifted, but chances of that happening are ....well the math isn't good. It's like a 6.2 percent chance of THAT happening...
Despite the hate and all that other crap going on, Shawn trys to stay optimistic and live a fun life in the city. He volunteers for different things, and now that he's in his senior year, he's looking for colleges and a career path. He's being cautious of course, no one but his gifted friends knows he's one of those, 'mutants', and he's keeping it that way. But it's hard! ESPECIALLY when he's dealing with a kinetic ability that doesn't seem to like him and goes off whenever he gets pissed or upset about something. That could be problematic, a problem he might not be able to solve with his brain this time...
Shawn has a bad case of anxiety. May it be for some assignment or test coming up (not that he needs to worry about something like THAT), or heck, a girl liking him or not, he gets anxious easily, which effects his other power of ice manipulation. One day he froze his pencil during his fifth time taking the ACT!! Soo, that's a problem. Oi vey.
Shawn has a very deep bond with his friends and family; though he won't tell his family about his power, no, that would be very bad. But despite that flaw in his family relations, he's very tight with them. They eat dinner together and everything, go to the movies sometimes, yeah, they're that tight. He's especially close to his older sister, they're sort of like twins really...
Lastly, Shawn has a bit of a short fuse when it comes to true idiots and jerks, he hates being around those who can't put 2 and 2 together, and sometimes forgets that his brain is faster than others, so he gets impatient easily and when he's the one getting annoyed by someone, he attempts to let them know by a sarcastic comment. Shawn's also very protective of those he loves, so it's like, you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us. (but really, if he tried to physically punch a dude, he'd probably fail due to his level oneness with his ice ability...unless you get him fired up, he'll probably freeze you like frosty the snow man)
So, overall! Shawn's a very nice gentleman, pretty comical with his friends, helpful, obsessive about grades (even though he doesn't need to be!), trys to be optimistic about the whole 'they hate us mutants' business, and can get annoyed easily by stupid idiots.

History:
Shawn was born to Olivia and Elliot Woods (lol SVU ref..xP) and grew up pretty normal. Honestly, normal as a stick! Nothing seemed out of the ordinary with Shawn, up until 1st grade of course. He knew most of the time tables and mathematical problems the teacher gave him, rarely missing any, and with age, and grade he just got better and better.
All the way up toward his high school days, Shawn was enrolled in high course math and science classes, top of his class in both subjects. He wasn't all that great in English or History, but he could sure beat your ass on timed math questions. Of course, he didn't think much of it, A LOT of kids were good at math, right? But were they REALLLYY good? Like, better than all four of the math professors in high school good? Now, he had had his assumptions, like, perhaps he was gifted...? NO! haha, crazy... but was he?
At around age 15 Shawn started doing research or math genius, he looked up all the big names, and the list came up with the best math majors on record, and saw all the IQ's, and his eyes widened when he saw himself tied with the top three, which was pretty damn good seeing as he was only 15 at the time. So, he was tied with the top 3 smarted math people in the world...big deal. However, he soon met one of his best friends to date, and they weren't so lighthearted about his situation. They were science partners their freshmen year, and he started telling Shawn that he was the smartest kid he'd ever known or read about in science and math, and he said it in such a serious tone. After a couple of weeks of more studying (his friend was always asking to come over to his house, and watched him do homework and stuff, kinda creepy), but it all payed off once Shawn's friend told him straight up. He was a mutant. Now, Shawn, seeing as mutants were only fictional characters on a TV and comics told him he was out of his mind. Which his friend merely shrugged and said, no I'm not, I'm a mutant too. Which led Shawn to believe that his friend wasn't just out of his mind, but crazy. Denying any of his assumptions, even though Shawn himself had made that exact assumption (but just didn't use the word 'mutant' in it), told him to leave. Now, he'd never heard such an insane remark, by his friend no less, and started thinking really hard, which caused headaches, which made him suck at his math problems, but he started wondering if his friend could possibly be right.
Of course, once he started thinking logically (or in another case, illogically), Shawn finally believed him. He wasn't just that smart kid in math, he was a mutant. Now it took a little while to adjust to that knowledge; and of course Shawn kept that little detail from his family. He of course like most, was afraid of what they would say... All his folks knew was that their boy was real smart in math and science, they didn't know they had produced a gifted.
Now, the sad part of this story is that Shawn's friend, the only other gifted he knew, disappeared, and you know what that usually means. Well, if your a gifted, you'd know. He got captured by the Black Rose. Shawn didn't know how they found out, and that was just a few weeks ago...What was he going to do? He was afraid to ask the very few other gifted, well, mostly due to the fact that he couldn't really find out where they were any more. Was everyone disappearing? How long would it be until Shawn himself disappeared? Got captured...
But come on...An unusually bright kid be accused of being a mutant? ha! Er...that's until his other ability came up... Ice manipulation.
He's just now recently been having these ice problems, like now that he's under a lot of stress, he notices the way the tips of his hair gets covered in frost, or the way he feels so cold that it hurts, but he doesn't go into any sort of shock. Oh, and the worst one, he made it snow in his room one night! It was going to be VERY hard to keep his gifted self a secret anymore... Damn.
