Name: Caleb Koch Age: 16 Powers: Duplication How did they discover their power(s)?: The earliest manifestation of his power was an imaginary friend he created for himself called Joshua. He began gaining full control of his power when he was 16. He needed money to catch a bus, and managed to duplicate himself and the money. Do they have a dark past?: Not really. His brother, Jeph, was murdered in Texas. But apart from that, not really. Why is he/she a Hero/Villain?: Hero because he's not particularly mean-spirited and it just doesn't occur to him to use his powers for his own devious means. What do you see them doing 5 years from now? Do they change or stay the same?: He'll have changed a bit, simply because he'll have matured. He'd like to live a normal life, get married and have kids, but whether or not that will happen is undecided. In the 10 Years Gone timeline, he lives as two, the original Caleb and a duplicate who goes by Joshua Cainen for safety.
Name: Amelia Pechlos Age: 9 Powers: Omnilinguism How did they discover their power(s)?: Her first use of her power was an unconcious use when she became friends with a boy named Luke. She believed that he spoke Spanish too, but was unaware that she was speaking English. On her ninth birthday, two of the children at the orphanage she lived at were adopted. Having never spoken English before, she somehow managed to understand a conversation between the children and the adopting mother and contribute in English. Do they have a dark past?: She lived in Mexico until she was 5. At that time, her parents were killed by revolutionaries and she was rescued by American missionaries who brought her to the orphanage in Philly. But not much of a dark past. Why is he/she a Hero/Villain?: Hero. She believes her power to be a gift from God (it first manifested itself on her ninth birthday) and doesn't see that she could use it for evil. What do you see them doing 5 years from now? Do they change or stay the same?: She will have developed her powers so that they are entirely natural and may use it to create confusion amongst her enemies - if she has any. It is possible (I still haven't decided) that she will go by the name of "Babel" for security reasons - or something like that.
