<br>Rules are for suckers. And, basically every one. But Tabby isn't a really big fan of them, and goes out of her way sometimes to break the rules, and it doesn't always matter which ones. However, most of the time it's in the misguided course of having fun or her personal freedom and not out of any malicious intent.

<span style="color:#8a14ff">'''Novice Telepath:'''</span>
<br>Tabby's mutant ability allows her to create balls of explosive plasma of various sizes. So far the largest that she has made has been the size of a basket ball, and in direct relation to the size is the destructive force that is emitted when one of those balls explodes. She's fine tuned the little ones, ones that explode with little more concussive force then a cherry bomb. However the top end of her abilities is as of yet unexplored. She has also learned how to add a timer delay on the little bombs, allowing her to set them and not be there when they explode.
+
<br>Tabitha has been training her nascent psychic abilities with the psychics of the X-men. With a little focus she can pick up surface thoughts and emotions around her. Simple communication is possible with individuals or shared in a small group via established mind-link. She has learned the basics of low-level mind-reading and how to enter someone's psyche. Anyone with even a modicum of anti-telepath training and/or natural ability can ward off Tabby's attempts. Her training has also included psychic self-defense, and she can detect and defeat most low-level efforts to confuse or harass her. Her defensive idiom is less 'mind palace' and more 'mental trailer park', sending her thoughts scattering into dozens of directions before returning to circle and engage the intruder.<br><br>
 +
<span style="color:#8a14ff">'''Plasmakinesis:'''</span>
 +
<br>Tabitha's power is the psionic creation, ignition, and manipulation of mostly volatile Plasma. Her first and easiest manifestation is what she calls her Time Bombs. Spheroid concentrations of explosive force from the size of a marble and as powerful and loud as a firecracker to bombs the size of beachballs that can destroy heavy armored military vehicles. The bigger the bomb the less control over the length of the timer and she is in danger of being caught in her own blast radius and taking the brunt of the concussive recoil <br><br>As time has gone on she has further learned to better control this plasma. She can psionically create and move her charges without needing to throw or use hand gestures though she still does for theatrics and rule of cool. She can manipulate the shape and volume, controlling the plasma content and sound level so the bombs can be as quiet as a pop of bubble gum or a suppressed gunshot. She can even move plasma in streams of explosive and concussive force at the same levels as her timebombs but this is murder on her metabolism and energy levels to sustain at higher outputs. <br><br>She has also developed an immunity to at least the heat and energy involved in creating plasma. Able to withstand blasts from those with higher outputs such as Sunfire and the Human Torch though how much she can take is unknown, she still flinches. <br><br>She can reabsorb any unexploded energy she created. She is not immune to the concussive force of her blasts. This can be used to increase her mobility with tricks like rocket and grenade jumping or at least surviving lethal heights. <br><br>In addition, due to the nature of how plasma is created via the moving of ions and electrons and the heating and electrifying of them. She can create plasma via conduction through any suitable material like steel or copper.

<br>She's had to learn the basics of combat skills, and she's not the best. She's undisciplined and often breaks out of training to react more out of anger or fear then doing what she was trained for. But she's adapted her powers to combat in a way that works for her, and probably would just confuse most reasonable people.<br><br>

<br>She's learned unarmed combat skills from some of the best teachers the Xavier Institute can offer and beyond, though she's not the best herself yet. She's undisciplined and often breaks out of training to react more out of anger, fear, or frustration then doing what she was trained for. But she's adapted her powers to combat in a way that works for her, and probably would just confuse most reasonable people. Most of the time she's just pulling moves out of her backside.<br><br>

<br>Never had much growing up, still don't have much in the personal things department. But that never stopped Tabby. She's a master of making it work with whatever is on hand, and that has taught her that sometimes you've got to think outside the box.<br><br>

<br>While she might be a bundle of chaos, and just as likely to get into trouble as she is to behave, she really does know when best to keep her mouth shut. She's had to fend for herself from an early age, and that has taught her when you just shut your mouth and go along with things to survive, it's also taught her how to read people and a situation to see just how far she can push a situation, who can she go to for help or who might have what she needs in a given situation.

This is a euphemism for being a thief. Sneaking, stealing, breaking and entering. Concealing things in clothes way too tight and clinging. She's no master thief but she doesn't have any real jail time either. and some people just deserve to have the rug yanked out from under them.

<br>She was practically a kid the first time she landed at the school, and she stuck around for a little while before running away again. It wasn't because she didn't like it, it was she liked it too much maybe. But even having run away from home a second time, it's still the home she returns to, and she knows she'll always be taken back. No matter how many times she messes up.

<br>Tabby has difficulty managing stray thoughts and emotions from large groups. The filtering of background noise is not quite reflexive for her and requires ongoing focus to accomplish. Tabitha aggressively suppresses her own psychic presence out of a deep fear of someone overhearing her thoughts inadvertently. With her ADHD, the constant noise and periodic intrusive thinking can be highly distracting if not unbearable at times.<br><br>

<br>Life wasn't easy for Tabby growing up, her dad was basically the worst. She's struck out on her own, and would call herself a loner and say she didn't need anyone. But the reality is that she really does need a family, friends, a group to belong to, and she's bad at being alone.<br><br>

<br>The flipside to her flirty, hotheaded, and almost random personality. Tabitha has undiagnosed cases of ADHD. Her difficulty to focus makes it hard for people to try and get information through to Tabitha if it's not presented in an engaging enough manner and also leaves her prone to frustration and often charging at a goal or plan with seeming nary a care. The hyper-focus side often leaves her single-minded and stuck on a subject longer than need be. Her diet of sugar, carbs, and caffeine does not help even if it's what her powers require. <br><br>PTSD set in hard after the Genoshan genocide. she tries to hide it but it's always there and having to deal with death is difficult for her. It's also a backfire on her usual solution to difficult situations. She could just run away, but when she left for Genosha and the massacre happened, she isn't sure when running is the safe idea or not. So with that hot headed side she'll often stand her ground when she shouldn't out of misplaced bravado.<br><br>

<span style="color:#EE204D">'''Power Source:'''</span>
 +
<br>For all that Boom-Boom's powers allow, they still all come from the same source. Tabitha's own metabolism. This is why she keeps a steady diet of sugar, carbs, and caffeine. The electricity needed to ignite, and ionize electron heavy gasses that constitute plasma comes from her own nervous system and much like anyone that power lifts, Tabitha has a very high caloric intake to keep her going. Higher and more intense use of her powers can leave her very drained to the point of becoming powerless and sometimes too tired to even move. As a result of her generous bioelectrical situation, she's also subject to draining via those capable of electrokinesis such as Surge or Electro. Due to her powers triggering the same time as her sex drives, the two have been linked and has she uses her powers it also messes with her hormonal state and urges to her increasing chagrin. Effort is made to control and detach the two but they remain tied and one more issue to add with Tabitha's personal problems.<br><br>

<br>Tabby literally had nothing growing up, except terrible parents and a lot of bad habits. She knows that her family was poor, close-minded, and trashy, and as hard as she tries to shed that image sometimes it never fully polishes off the surface. It's a chip on her shoulder that she'll use as a shield sometimes, and just as often use what she assumes is someone's judgment about her as a reason to be difficult.
