Bio:

Character Info

Birth Name :: Unknown. Adopted name: Lorna Irina Dane

Nicknames :: Lornie, Po-Po, Doone

Codename :: Polaris

Age :: 30

Gender :: Female

Race :: Caucasian

Homosapien | Homosuperior :: Homosuperior

Mutant Abilities :: Polaris is a mutant with the ability to manipulate magnetism. Although she has the potential to exercise all of the powers that Magneto has, as yet she has only used powers involving the manipulation of magnetic, electrical, and gravitic fields. Moreover, she cannot summon as great an amount of energy as Magneto can. The exact limits on the amount weight that she can magnetically lift at present have not been measured, but they are considerably below those of Magneto. Since she has preferred not to use her powers in combat situations, she has not worked nearly as hard to develop them as Magneto has. As with Magneto, it is unknown whether Polaris's powers are purely psionic or whether they derive from her physically.

Polaris has been observed levitating metallic objects and creating force fields in which she can suspend persons or objects in the air and in which she can protect them from attacks from outside the fields. She can also overload or short-circuit electrical systems. By concentrating, Polaris can perceive the world around herself solely as patterns of magnetic and electrical energy. She can perceive the natural magnetic auras surrounding living beings, as well.

Personal History :: Lorna Dane was orphaned only weeks after her birth when her English mother, supposedly died in a plane crash. She was adopted by the Danes, her mother's brother and sister-in-law, and did not learn of her adoption or the fate of her birth mother until she was nearly twenty years old.

Lorna had been born with green hair, which she always kept dyed brown so that she would not be seen as "different." Lorna’s hair color was the only outward sign of her latent genetic potential for magnetic powers, but certain genetic factors were absent which would have allowed her to exercise those powers.

When she was twenty-one, she was contacted by Charles Xavier (who had learned of her true identity only soon before) and invited to finish her college courses at his school. After making life-long friends with other original students of his (including Jean Grey, Hank McCoy and Ororo Munroe) she began to feel comfortable as a mutant and a woman - which led her to become an X-Man (and to stop dying her hair).

For a time, she lived in California, in the Diablo mountain range studying geology and concentrating on her career. While there, she kept in close contact with fellow X-alumni Drew Cousins. Charles Xavier kept particularly close contact with her through the years she was absent, in attempts to keep her safe from her father's sway.

Lorna would come and go from the mansion, staying for holidays and the like, but never permanently until recently.
