Part Two - Character Info
Character Name: Dr. Hope Chandler
Canon: X-Men OC
Age: 39
Base Location: Washington D.C.
Appearance: Hope is a tall woman, standing 5’9” with sharp features. Her hair is just about shoulder length and a deep brown color. She tends to wear it up when she is at work and down when she’s relaxing at home. When she’s nervous she’ll tuck it behind an ear even when it’s up and there’s nothing to tuck. Her eyes are a hazel color but appear simply brown in most light.
She is built like a model, thin and delicate looking. She always carries herself with an easy grace, though when she talks with her hands her gestures tend to be sharp and definitive. She is not trained as a fighter and because of this lacks any real muscle. While not diminutive, she can easily go unnoticed in a room. She is most confident and assertive in the lab and wearing a lab coat.
She wears a medical bracelet on her right wrist. It says she’s an epileptic and has emergency contact information on it as well as what medicines she is taking.
Species: Mutant
Abilities: Hope’s mutant abilities all stem from her nervous system. Her X-gene has increased the level of bio-electricity in her body. This increase gives her nervous system a boost, making it work better and faster than a normal person. It has gifted her with her genius level intelligence, incredible skill with logic and reasoning as well as an almost flawless memory.
She is also able to concentrate the excess bio-electricty and project it out of her body in little bolts. These bolts only have about a three foot range but they can be transferred into another person through skin to skin contact. These bolts render a person unconscious in seconds. Their bodies are not adapted to the increased levels so the body shuts down to protect itself. This can last a few hours to a few days depending on the severity of the shot.
However, there is a downside to Hope’s abilities. Her body is constantly producing more and more bioelectricity. If she doesn’t discharge this build up it can overload even her mutated nervous system. When overloaded, Hope experiences grand mal seizures which can erase portions of her short term memory and leave her dazed and disoriented afterwards. She takes seizure medication to help control this, but isn’t allowed to drive and wears a medical alert bracelet.
Personality: In a word, Hope is kind. She hates violence and claims conscientious objector status to any conflict. She is polite, warm and trusting to anyone she meets which makes her come off as somewhat naive. Though she doesn’t broadcast this, Hope sees her kindness as an advantage. She knows it leads people to underestimate her and if the need arises she’s willing to take advantage of that.
While friendly, Hope is not a social butterfly. She much prefers to spend time on her own, either researching what interests her or reading anything she can. This has led her to a few complicated relationships and the occasional moment of social awkwardness. She just can’t help getting bored with people who can’t keep up with her mind or aren’t clever enough to entertain her. She gets especially bored when men try to charm her with flattery and completely obvious lines. She is straight and enjoys a partner who keeps her curious about him.
When she believes in something, Hope will defend it to the end. She has a very strong will underneath all her kindness and will cut down anyone who argues against her with a quit wit and sharp tongue. She rarely gets this agitated though. She’s easy enough to work up if you know the right buttons to push, but mostly she tries to let things roll off of her. This is a constant struggle for her.
She has the odd habit of talking to herself nearly all the time and often loud enough for people to hear. When she has an idea she will write on any available surface and in a short hand code she developed herself. It’s very hard to get her attention when she is having one of these brainstorms. She likes to swim and finds water very calming.
History: Dr. Hope Renee Chandler was born in Charleston, South Carolina and is the middle child of the wealthy and influential Marcus and Mary Chandler. The wealthy upper class family is Southern royalty and Hope grew up in a world of Southern manners, wealth and power.
She was a shy young girl and from an early age showed signs of an above average intelligence. She loved to read and her parents often worried about the hours she’d spend alone with books instead of going out with friends or socializing. She did take etiquette classes, learned to be a proper Southern lady and went to all the events her parents insisted on but she never cared much about any of that and was often miserable at them. Still, she liked to make her parents happy and tried very hard to please them, even if they didn’t understand her or her quirks.
As she grew, her intelligence made her stand out more and more. She always excelled at math, science and anything that involved logical reasoning. She wasn’t quite as good at things that involved a little creative or outside the box thinking. After a few tests, the school system decided Hope was gifted and she got sent ahead to another grade and another and another. She was already a high school senior when she was fifteen.
At the time everyone assumed Hope’s intelligence was just the luck of the draw, a gift. While at lunch during school one day, Hope had her first seizure. She was taken to the hospital and the doctors ran as many tests as they could to get answers to what was going on. They didn’t realize that Hope was a mutant and her strange test results were because of her mutation.
It was then that Charles Xavier appeared in Hope’s life and explained to her and her parents what was going on. Her parents were shocked, but Hope was fascinated. That first conversation with Charles changed Hope’s life forever. She did briefly attend Xavier’s School for Gift Youngsters, long enough to gain control over her powers and understand her limitations but the boarding school environment was too confining for her mind and she left roughly a year after coming.
Back in the academia that she loved, Hope focused all her genius on gaining an understanding of genetics and human biology. She went to Harvard for a pre-medical and biology degree and then went to John Hopkins for medical school where she further refined her degree onto human genetics. Once she had her medical license in hand, she started searching out a research position that would allow her to continue to dissect the mysteries of the X-gene.
She heard about a project at Worthington Labs which involved the X-gene and genetic manipulation. She immediately applied for a position and the project and was brought in. She became one of the lead doctors on the Cure project. While she kept her own mutant abilities quiet from the other doctors, her brilliance pushed the project along until finally she built the protein that made the Cure work. This was distributed to the mutant community and eventually the military. She never intended her work to be used as a weapon and argued over the weaponization of it. When Magneto attacked the lab on Alcatraz Hope fled to San Francisco. She saw the destruction and chaos the Cure brought and regretted her part in it.
After the battle, Hope quit Worthington Labs and settled just outside San Francisco. It was there SHIELD found her running and working in a clinic. They offered her a position in SHIELD as a doctor and a researcher. She agreed and moved to D.C. to work at SHIELD headquarters.
