1. Character's Name: Robert Louis Drake, though he goes by Bobby 2. Fandom: X-men Movies, with a few elements taken from the comics to fill out Bobby’s pre-movie backstory 3. Time Frame: At the end of the third movie, after they've returned from Alcatraz but before Rogue’s return 4. Age: 20
5. Background: Bobby grew up in Boston, at first as an only child and then a proud big brother after Ronnie came into the picture. He was popular at school and got along well with his family, which meant he pretty much had a more or less perfect childhood. Sure, there were petty little fights and squabbles, and as Bobby got older he was pretty sure he didn't agree with the views on mutants that his parents showed in their conversations, but his parents obviously loved both him and Ronnie, and Bobby was happy

After that, they made a quick stop by the White House to help convince the President to see things reasonably (which, okay, was pretty cool). And then it was back to the mansion to try and sort things out. With Jean gone and Scott in no shape to help keep things going, Bobby, Rogue, Kitty, and Peter were made junior X-men, training with Storm (and occasionally Scott, when he was having a good day, or Logan, when he was there). Bobby found himself being de facto leader for the junior X-men, usually speaking on their behalf

6. Personality: Bobby tries very hard to hide the fact that he’s really kind of a dork. He’ll readily admit to liking video games and math and all those other things, but he does his best to be cool and suave and charming. And sometimes ends up tripping over his own shoelaces and rambling on about nothing at all, but he still does it in a charming way, dang it. He can be a bit of a flirt, though this isn’t always intentional. Above all, he’s incredibly good hearted. He’s very slow to take offense, unless the offense is directed towards someone else. You can insult him all you want, but insult one of his friends and there’s going to be a problem.
He has a great sense of humor, and is always up for a joke or a good laugh, from things like freezing a fireball John’s formed in the middle of class to try and show off and getting John in trouble (back when he could do that, and John would only be amused instead of probably trying to kill him, anyway), to teasing a smile out of his friends. Bobby hides a lot behind his sense of humor and

9. Abilities: Thermokinesis: Bobby is able to manipulate his body temperature. He can lower it drastically, to about -106 degrees Fahrenheit, which makes him virtually immune to cold temperatures. If he lowers his body temperature to a point that's in extreme contrast with the current temperature, the air around him also cools, which means condensation will form and then freeze on him, creating a sheen of ice. To some degree, he can lower the temperature of the moisture in the air around him, enabling him to cool down medium-sized rooms. However, he is also more susceptible to high temperatures. Heat, especially dry heat, bothers him a lot more than normal humans, and spending too long in such a climate can seriously weaken him. Especially if the change in climate is quick, such as stepping off an air conditioned plane into the desert. His solution to this is usually to create lots of ice and hide in it, or keep his body temperature constantly lowered, which also wears him out a lot faster than normal. He can also sense the amount of

13. Writing sample - Third Person Prose:It was good the school was back open. He was happy about that. And Bobby was very busy concentrating on that, and not on anything else. Not on how different it felt with the Professor and Scott and Jean gone, or about Rogue leaving in the middle of the night, or Pyro in general. He was refusing to think about anything awkward or depressing. None of it. Just being glad the school was open and Jimmy was safe and the Cure was hopefully taken care of. He was taking a break from any more complicated thinking than that
