CHARACTER NAME: Katherine Anne "Kitty" Pryde
FANDOM: X-Men
CANON: After X-Men 3: The Last Stand
WHAT THEY LOST: Kitty will lose her ability to ice skate. While it may not seem like much, for Kitty ice skating isn't only a skill but also a hobby and something which she uses not only to relax but to also relieve herself from stress or negative or sad feelings. It reminds her of the first snow at home, something which she dearly misses. If Kitty attempts to skate whilst in Paradisa she will find herself falling over whenever she tries. If someone tries to hold her up to allow her or help her to skate they will only be able to do so for a matter of seconds before a 'magical' gravity like force pulls her down or she falls again.

ABOUT THE CHARACTER: Kitty was born in Illinois, seemingly an average and normal girl until the age of thirteen. The first sign that something was wrong started when Kitty began to develop headaches, something which later strengthened before her ability manifested itself. Kitty has the ability of phasing, allowing her to move through objects - for example walking through walls - by altering the vibratory rates of her atoms. During a phase Kitty is completely intangible, allowing objects to pass through her or her through them without harm coming to either. Kitty is also able to use this ability with others, altering another's atoms to allow something to pass through them also but only whilst she is touching them. Other than objects, Kitty can also use her ability to move through electrical fields, interfering with them as she does.

Kitty's first meeting with another mutant was with that of Professor Charles Xavier, the founder of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Whilst Kitty was at first weary and unsure of this, he ultimately managed to convince her to go with him to find out who she is whilst exploring and learning to control her gift. At the school, as well as learning how to phase at will and extending her abilities onto others, Kitty proved to be a smart girl, excelling in subject areas. Her friendly, and often bubbly, personality allowed her to quickly make friends and even gain romantic interests and she was briefly involved in a relationship with a fellow student named Colossus. With her friends Kitty is a confident girl though at certain times, even with her friends, she will become unsure of herself and second guess herself too. The support from her friends as well as their friendship helps to reassure Kitty's beliefs and they have helped to make her stronger as a person, strengthening the girl that she is as well as her determination. Kitty wishes to help others and partakes in the training sessions in the Danger Room, training to become one of the new X-Men so that she may help as previous X-Men also have.

In the face of danger Kitty has shown herself to be rather gutsy and instinctual, able to use her ability under pressure and with quick thought. When faced with trouble, for example when Kitty rescued Leech from the Juggernaut, Kitty was able to come up with a quick solution when it was shown that her own ability was unable to work due to Leech's, her idea using that knowledge to also counteract the Juggernaut's so that they would be able to escape. While Kitty may not be tough in a physical sense, she is mentally and tries not to let danger scare her quite so much.

It is unknown as to whether Kitty's parents are still alive or whether they are part of the group which are not only afraid of but are also, in a sense, disgusted by mutants. In a conversation with Bobby after Professor Xavier had died, Kitty mentioned that she had no one or anything but the school. Despite her sadness around this, as well as that of the situation, one of Kitty's fondest memories of home is when it snows, particularly the first snow. Kitty is a skilled ice skater and skates when she wishes to relax or to relieve herself of tension or bad feelings.

Kitty is also a very morally strong and though her ability can be used for harm Kitty has no intentions or wish to harm anyone. She's seen and fully understands the fear regarding mutants without wishing to add to that herself and any training that she does she uses for a protective nature, to protect herself, other mutants and humans harmed by mutants. One of the things that Kitty would love to see - as well as the general mutant consensus - is peace between mutants and humans. Whilst things are becoming better, a mutant holds a high political standing, the president is understanding and humans are becoming more educated, full peace has yet to be fully achieved, something which - for Kitty - looks a little less likely through recent acts. Though she believes this it will not stop her from being who she is - she is a mutant first and is becoming prouder of that fact with every good thing which happens due to mutant acts. Kitty is also of Jewish heritage from her paternal grandfather, though whether she is religiously Jewish or just culturally is unknown, though no one has seen her practise or speak of religion.

THIRD-PERSON WRITING SAMPLE: When Kitty had stepped into the Danger Room she'd expected something that looked more like a war zone than a castle, a weird looking castle at that. She turned on the spot, looking behind her to see the reactions of Bobby and Colossus, to ask Storm what this was but was instead surprised when she saw that no one was there, that she was instead alone.

"Guys?" It took a moment or two before she wondered if this was a joke, but then why weren't they with her to laugh at her expense? Her next thought was mutant; something high level had to do this. Xavier had told them once about a former student, an illusionist, though he hadn't told them whether he was still alive or not. It was a good possibility, though being trapped in her own mind scared her. She took a breath and looked back to the hallway of the castle, trying to work out what she could do. Shutting her eyes Kitty mentally readied herself, opening them briefly to look at the wall in front of her before closing them and walking to it, fast enough to push herself through. Kitty hadn't known whether to expect to hit it or to be able to go through it, if she were trapped in her own mind then she didn't know what could happen. When Kitty appeared on the other side of the wall she let out the breath that she'd held, letting herself become tangible again.

"So now what?" She wasn't fully aware that she'd said that aloud and while the biggest contender for whatever this was was an illusion there was a part of her that still wondered if they were playing a trick on her; they could have just changed the setting. "Think, Kitty. They're not here, you can do it." This wasn't the toughest situation. Okay, so maybe it was but she'd been in scarier - Phoenix was a lot scarier, so was Magneto. "It's just like before, just a little more alone." Turning back to the wall Kitty placed her hand on it, moving her hand over the surface before phasing her hand into it and back out. It was real, at least it felt real. The Danger Room felt real and generally so did her mind. It might not have ruled anything out but it was a start, that was something. One thing that she was glad to remember was that whatever this was - trick or illusion someone would find her; someone would help her.

FIRST-PERSON WRITING SAMPLE: It's not always easy. The Professor was helpful, he was great actually, but sometimes it gets a little tough, you know? I don't wish that I was different, maybe when it first happened but not now, not with everything that's happened. I guess I wish that I could do more but it's not as if there's anything else to do. It's not easy being alone either. I know that Bobby says I'm not and... I'm not, but that's not the same. I miss home. It wasn't always great but it was still home, I can't even go back there and now I can't even skate. So... what is there, what's left? What am I even fighting for?

INTENT: I blame Arden and Wolverine. I've never tagged with them (with Kitty) but their Wolverine is absolutely fantastic and it made me want to bring the muse back. Other than that, Kitty is a fun character, she's a strong young girl whom I love playing and I'd like to explore how things would happen with her in Paradisa with people she knows as well as those that she doesn't, her ability and her general growth. She's a young girl who is still finding herself, anything could happen.
