| Mutant Power(s) | Hydro-kenesis (2) = Users can create, shape, and manipulate water, inorganic compound with liquid, gas (steam, water vapor), and solid (ice) states. This involves water itself, ice in any form, steam, water pressure, and other variations. The user can also change them from one state to others. More skilled and powerful users can use water-related weather such as blizzards and rainstorms. Some users are able to completely control the temperature of the water at will. Calypso is not that skilled yet. Limitations User needs to be around the element in order for the power to be successfully executed. User can use the water/moisture/humidity in the air, but not as effectively due to smaller amounts. That said, distance, mass, precision, etc. depend upon of the knowledge, skill, and strength of the user, and their power's natural limits. User cannot control and manipulate great bodies of water (ponds, lakes, seas, oceans) due to youth and inexperience. User is susceptible to Electricity Manipulation and can be opposed by Fire, Magma, Ice, or Sand Manipulation. |

| Origin Story | Hayden grew up in a quiet suburb of Buffalo, New York, where life was predictable and summers offered the only taste of adventure she craved. Despite attempts to sneak into the city with friends and live life on the wild side, her escapades were always foiled by watchful parents who cared deeply about her safety. Her childhood was ordinary, filled with school, family dinners, and summers spent exploring nearby parks. Everything changed for Hayden at the age of fourteen when her latent mutant abilities emerged unexpectedly during a particularly stressful day at school. It began innocently enough at the school pool during swim class. An emotional outburst from being mocked as the lanky girl caused the water in the pool to become turbulent. Uncontrolled waves fell onto the students standing nearby, knocking many of them to ground. Startled classmates and a drenched poolside were the immediate consequences of her newfound powers. Unable to grasp or control her abilities, Hayden inadvertently drew attention and ridicule from her peers, isolating herself. The incident marked the beginning of a tumultuous period for Hayden as her frustration grew. Her lack of control over her powers led to ostracization and bullying, exacerbating her feelings of isolation and anger. One particularly intense moment occurred at the school water fountain during a confrontation with a bully. Her emotions boiled over and the water pressure spiked uncontrollably, inadvertently unleashing a powerful burst of water and injuring her tormentor. Fearing the consequences and feeling utterly alone, Hayden contemplated running away from the life she couldn't seem to fit into. However, Hayden's parents refused to give up on her. They would not let her face her struggles alone. Despite their initial confusion and concern, they remained steadfast in their support. Determined to help their daughter understand and control her abilities, they sought assistance from experts who could guide Hayden in mastering her powers and integrating into a community where she could belong. It was during this period of uncertainty that Hayden adopted the name "Calypso," inspired by the mythological sea nymph known for her association with the ocean's mysteries and enchantments. Several weeks later, visitors arrived at Hayden's home—representatives from the Xavier Institute in Salem Center, New York. They offered Hayden a place where she could learn to harness her abilities in a safe and supportive environment among others like her: mutants. Recognizing this as a chance for a fresh start and a path towards understanding herself, Hayden accepted the invitation. She embarked on a journey that would lead her to discover not only her true potential, but also a newfound sense of belonging and purpose. A journey that would eventually take her from a confused and isolated teenager to a confident and compassionate young woman. |
