THERMAL MANIPULATION |
Xan can sense and manipulate temperatures around him. He can feel in a sense heat and coll temps from people and objects allowing him to almost see his surroundings. This is just natural and doesn't shut off. If there are too many of the same temperatures around him he can't always differentiate between the objects.
Manipulating temperatures takes focus and he can hold a temp for up to three hours as long as it doesn't exceed -20F point or 300F. Anything past that the length he can keep it up differs. He doesn't have to be in physical contact with what ever he is working with but does have to be withing three feet of it. He can heat up a 10ft radius of water as long as he is in the water. It seems that if he is in contact with water he can make the heat or cool temps travel further. If he is not concentrating it doesn't work and there is the chance of getting too hold or cold that it will burn or freeze him only when the temp is at a more extreme. Also it is stronger if he is in physical contact with the object.

FLY ME TO THE MOON let me play among the stars |
Basketball wasn't an easy sport to begin with, but it was increasingly harder when you couldn't see the hoop or the ball for that matter. His dad loved to play basketball and they had rigged the hoop in the back yard of the house with things to help the blind kid play like a bell on the net so Xan could hear where it was. He could hear the ball bounce but he used to have a hard time figuring out who had the ball. That is till his power came in.
The game became a little easier when he could sense the other people around him and where the hoop was, not necessarily where the net itself was but the general area. He still wasn't able to play on a team. It wasn't like he could see heat and tell one person apart from another based on heat, no he could just sense people. But he could play one on one or maybe with a couple people. The only problem was that he couldn't pinpoint the net without a bell on it. The temperature was the same as the other things around it making it blurry for lack of a better term.
That didn't mean that he didn't still try to make the basket. With the courts just about void of people at this time he was free to practice as much as he wanted without any stray noise. He was still missing often but every now and then he would make it and that was all that matter to the blind kid. At least he was having fun. | wearing THIS lovely outfit |

In his defense, Tyler didn't mean to be a creeper - he was just looking the window to pass the time. Poetic, really. It took only a minute or so of losing his mind in boredom before he spotted Xander out by the hoops, attempting what he could only guess was basketball.
He wasn't actually half bad - Tyler even saw one get in. Which was actually quite crippling to the boy's self esteem, since he wasn't even sure if he had even gotten a basket in throughout his entire life. And Xander was blind - no?
Excusing himself from whatever dreaded group activity he had gotten himself into, Tyler phased right through the door and made his way down the hall and down a few flights, intending on dragging himself to court side seats.
Minutes later Tyler approached Xander, though there was still significant distance between them, and ran to collect the ball as it bounced wildly from the backboard. "Almost," he announced, grasping the ball in his hand, too afraid to try and dribble.
Tyler sized up the senior, his head titled slightly to the side. "A fan of baskektball?" he asked. "Cause, like, I'm the shittiest player there ever was."

Xander noticed the other person walk into the room. Well in the persons own way. Xan grinned and turned to the person. "Hey Tyler" He said in a cheerful tone. Xan recognized the underclassmen's voice. He was always good about that, a skill perfected from being blind. He had to recognize people some way. "Yeah, love the game but can't exactly go pro" Xan joked. He did love the game and knew going pro was not happening but he was good about having a good time with it.
"I could show you some moves. That or totally chill with doing something else. Not sure how good of a teacher I would be" He joked. He couldn't really teach the boundaries or anything since he couldn't see the, But maybe he could teach how to shoot. That was the most important part right? | wearing THIS lovely outfit |
