AU Profile for Fortes et Liber
History: Aaron and Zeke's parents split shortly after the twins were born. Their mother is human; their father was a mutant. They were raised mostly by their mother, but it was their father who made the biggest impact on them. He was the one who taught them how to use their powers, and he was the one who tried to convince both of them that they didn't need to worry about anyone but themselves. He succeeded with Aaron, but Zeke remained attached to their mother and didn't believe she was inferior.
Their father had the power to create illusions in people's minds, so the twins' time with him appeared, to them, to be much longer than it really was. As far as they were concerned, they spent years with him at a time, celebrating every day of it, despite the fact that they only had half their weekends with him. They both knew their father was creating these illusions, but they believed them anyway.
Personality: The twins are narcissistic and playful, and extremely competitive. They agree on most things and frequently speak in unison but disagree on a few fundamental, important points, mainly surrounding mutants. Aaron believes humans are worthless and mutants--especially the twins--are inherently more important, a belief he picked up from their father. Zeke, simply put, disagrees.
If they had the chance, the twins would retreat from the world and hide away with a few hand-picked other "specials". They like each other more than they like anyone else, even when they disagree.
Powers: Zeke has telekinesis; Aaron has the power of persuasion. When in contact with each other, they can teleport.
How they came to Fortes: Recently their father was killed in a car accident. Aaron blames their mother and doesn't trust her; Zeke thinks it's too much of a burden to ask her to raise them alone. So when they learned from Scott that Fortes had openings, they decided to take all their things and come to the mansion.
