Powers

Mutant Power: Full Empath with healing abilities

Extents: Able to send out emotions while singing although she is able to receive at any time but only within the radius of about 20 yards. While connected to a person she can heal them however this is limited to her medical knowledge.   The more extensive the damage the more power it takes from her and does drain her.  They also have to be able to hear her so distance can be a problem.

Personality

Psychological Background: Over all Melody is very caring person.  She talks with anyone and is friendly however she doesn't open up to everyone.  It takes her a while to trust others.

Personality Quirks: Claustrophobic and Fear of the dark.  Melody is fine in areas so long as she knows she can get out.  If she cannot she panics.  The same is with darkness.  She is fine as long as she can see something (even if it's just her hand in front of her nose) but in total darkness she panics and almost becomes catatonic.

History

General History: Melody grew up in New York city.  Her mother had given up her parental rights when Melody was ten and she was then sent into foster homes.  She never knew her father for her mother wasn't sure who her father even was.  As her mutation developed she began to sense the emotions of others in the house and when she was at school this became even harder for her for she'd feel so many emotions as to overwhelm her.  She tried running away numerous times finding that she could escape to areas without people for some time.  Not having any clue as to why she was feeling what she was she had no way of explaining to the social workers who would then send her back to group homes.  When she was sixteen she was still trying to get away when she ran into problems of four men.  The police took the report but she was then sent back to group home.  Dealing with the emotions she was feeling there and what she'd felt from the men was too much and she tried to commit suicide.  It was while at the hospital that one social worker realized she was a mutant and contacted the Manchester school where she was sent upon release from the hospital.   

There she learned how to control receiving emotions.  How to block them out when needed and to also control it so she could receive from one person only.  She also learned about her ability to project emotion and her healing ability while there.  Upon graduation she went to school to become a nurse so that she could use her abilities to help others.  She then went back to the Manchester school to help there.
