Walking around the Institute, Eric watched as a few of the kids ran around and played in their free time. There were mutants af all ages, but despite their power, they were all harmless. Using their abilities to aid them in the games they played, the looks on their faces were happy. They were free.
And that's why he loved the place. Even though he had responsibilities here, nothing was ever forced on him. He was free to go where he wanted, not that anyone could stop him if that weren't the case. Yes, they had a few problems here and there, but that was a part of life. And the man would be damned if he didn't prefer this part of life over his other option.
Sitting down on a bench he watched as a girl with telekinesis used her ability to move a basketball in the hoop, gaining two points for her team. The others complained, but it was all in good fun. He just wished his younger siblings could experience this. He had thought about asking them to join him, but after what had happened recently, he wasn't sure if it were the right time.
Scanning the area, he sighed. If he didn't have an this class to teach later on in the day then he would be exploring more than just the grounds right now. And though that wasn't an excuse because he was fast enough to do both, the man felt as if he needed to spend most of his time here in case something else happened.
"Next time, you'll protect them all," he said to himself.

"Cheese and Rice! Masters?!? You scared the daylights out of me!!!"
Eric laughed at the odd statement that came from the woman as she tried to calm her heart once more. You would think that she would be used to it by now, but no. He got her every single time. And each time was funnier. Where in her mind she dug up those random phrases, he didn't think he would ever know.
His smile faded slightly as he gave her a confused look, standing still as she looked at him with joy in her eyes. It was like she hadn't just seen him a few days ago. She placed her hand on his chest, and he stiffened as he felt the heat from her touch. And it was not only radiating from her palm, but from within him. She pulled it from him, and created a beacon, which he looked at in awe each time he saw. Giving him the first, genuine smile he had seen from her in a while, she gave him the tool to find them in case he got separated.
"Let it guide you..... In case we can't keep up."
Nodding, he moved in closer so that he could hear the plan from Sarah, who had fallen into the leadership role quite gracefully. She was being direct, and certain. For someone who wasn't on the team before now, she seemed seasoned. His job was to take the rear and await further instruction
"Got it."
So when Julie led the way with her lights and Sarah walked close behind, Eric followed.

The best thing about the weekend is that you got to sleep in. Ever since Eric was a child, he had been sleeping in on Saturday morning, building all the energy he needed for the next week. When he had gotten his powers, though he didn't need to rest as much because of his enhanced endurance, he still stayed in on Saturdays just to keep ritual going.
But this didn't fair well with his schedule once he had joined the x-men. Now, if there wasn't a training session, there was a mission that they all had to go on. And that meant that he had to wake up earlier just to play part of the team. But that didn't mean that he would do it happily. It was common knowledge that he took his time in the morning, which was funny seeing how he could literally get ready in the blink of an eye. But he got ready on his time.
Eric had to admit, he loved this place. It was a nice contrast from the filth he came from. And unlike his days doing crime, he felt at peace about being here. As the ethics teacher and a member of the X- Team, he had been able to make at least a small difference. They were grooming young heroes and he was sure of it. Which made things even harder when they had lost half the team not too long ago. They were up against impossible odds, and even though he did all he could, it wasn't enough.
Julie was a good leader. Yes, sometimes she was a bit too nice for his taste, but she had the position for a reason. He followed her because he believed that. But he could tell that since then, her confidence has been diminished. He understood that she held herself responsible for what happened, but she wasn't the only one out there.
However, the loss didn't take anything from him. Instead it gave him more vigor, and he would be damned if he let it happen again. Today was the first team meeting since that dark day, so he was prepared to make an entrance. Getting dressed quickly, he sped to the Danger Room and pushed the doors open to see, that the stimulation had already begun.
"Rude much?" he thought to himself as he scanned the greenery of the rainforest. He wasn't the most patient man, so it just made him chuckle when others couldn't wait on him. So he guessed he just had to catch up.
It didn't take long for him to find a lead to follow as he ran. Drums began to rumble making, him turn and follow a dark path to the sound that was beckoning him forward. Before long he saw the bended light of none other than Julie as she followed...Sarah through the forest? This was a pleasant surprise. Sarah was a great teacher, but he had never seen her show interest in the team. In fact the only thing he had known her to show interest in other than her job was with Julie.
And speaking of the team, there was no one else around. Maybe they had separated at the split back there.
Speeding up behind the two women, he spoke out of nowhere as if he was always there.
"So what are we doing? Chasing a bad guy? You guys look like you're chasing bad guys."

x Eric Masters(Velocity) Eric i best described as a mystery. As opposed to many of his allies, he walks a morally gray area. Having gone down the wrong path before, he knows how easy it is to flip into darkness, so he has more of an understanding for those who call themselves pro mutant. While this man's demeanor would make you think that he's a danger to humans, all this man wants to do is make sure the future is safe for his younger siblings and every other person who needs help. Petty crime is of no concern to him. It is when you threaten what he fights for that you're in trouble. He is quick on his feet and also has a silver tongue, always happy to pull someone in with his charm.
If you can get under the thick exterior that is Eric's nonchalant personality, you will get a fiercely loyal friend the will do anything to help. He is usually mistaken as angry all the time, but he is just passionate about what he believes in. Those who help him with his cause are friends. Even if he sometimes makes them feel as if they are not.
Enemies are easier for this man to get. He is quick to step to whoever challenges him, and for a while that has included whoever is against the Institute. He has built many rivalries and made many enemies, not just from other factions but from his own if their ideals seem too different from his own.
Possibly the easiest way to build anything with Eric. It's more common for him to interact with the opposite sex through flirtation and by physical means than letting them know what he's really thinking. So while he's had his fair share of flings, getting that special place would be slightly more difficult.

x character name NAME. Eric Masters NICKNAME. Velocity AGE. 27 BIRTHDAY. September 2 MEMBER GROUP. Mutant GENDER. Male(He, Him) SEXUAL ORIENTATION.Heterosexual POWER: Absolute Speed STRENGTHS:. Velocity can move at speeds that not even the most attuned of beings can grasp. He can outrun or avoid anything an opponent can use against him. Velocity can move at infinite velocities, allowing user to surpass and perceive light speed movements and move at speeds that allow him to move past time and space itself.
Velocity's mind and senses process information at such speeds that time appears to have slowed down, allowing him to perceive what would normally be moving too fast to see and respond accordingly. He also can process information at incredible speeds, allowing him to analyze and come to conclusions at an unprecedented rate and perceive everything at a faster time frame.
WEAKNESS: 1. Though his level of speed is limitless, Velocity's stamina and endurance is steadily exhausted as he runs. The faster and farther he runs, the more he has to fill up on. If he continues to run without nutrients, he will eventually pass out from exhaustion. 2. Telepathic Attacks- Velocity is vulnerable to telepathic attacks if caught off guard. 3. Cold temperature and Velocity don't mix. If he is met with cold enough atmosphere, he slows down. 4.Despite his speed, Velocity is still just human. His durability is like that of any other human.

Eric grew up in the streets of Philedalphia in a pretty poor neighborhood. He absolutely hated being there, trapped in a situation he couldn't get out of. There was nothing to do, nowhere to go. He spent a lot of his time looking at pictures of faraway places that he could vacate to when he had the money. His twin siblings were born, and that made things a little better. But he was still trapped. Then his mutant abilities manifested, he had received just what he needed to leave. He began to travel and fall in with the wrong crowd. It was easy to steal when you couldn't get caught. The only thing that helped him get on the right track were his younger siblings, who had developed speed related abilities as well. So in order to make them proud, he joined the x-men, and moved to the Xavier school. He has since been a vital part of the movement. NAME. Plot King, PK AGE. 27 EXPERIENCE. 10+
