Power Description: Cesca has the power to change her density. She can go from completely phased to a super dense form that is nearly indestructible. It acts as a sort of invulnerability. Her phased form is visible but she cannot be touched while in that form. She can only phase her self and other small objects, such as her clothing, a pistol, something physically on her. She can not phased large objects and is unable to phase anything biological.
Power Limitations: While she changes density, so does her weight. So if she becomes completely invulnerable she becomes extremely heavy and can fall through floors and other items if they aren't strong enough to support the weight. When phasing, becoming as light as possible she still needs to breath. So while she can walk through items and walls, she still has to breath while doing this so she can't just sit inside a wall or something. She also recently discovered that some forms of energy can still disrupt her while she is in a phased form.
Hobbies and Interests: Cesca loves to ride motorcycles and high thrills. She seeks big thrills, like sky diving and cliff jumping, a bit of an adrenaline junky now. She owns a Kawasaki motorcycle crotch rocket that is neon green, her brother calls it the "snot rocket". She is a former bartender and knows how to make a good drink, but no longer drinks at all herself. Thanks to Clover she also has an increased love of fashion.
Background:
Cesca grew up in the lights and glamor of Las Vegas. She had a fairly normal life even after her powers emerged. Vegas had openly embraced mutants with clubs and strip shows (the Vegas strip, not the naked kind, though they have those to) all mutant friendly and oriented. Cesca and her brother were very close all growing up.
He was the quintessential popular boy. Loved by the jocks, goths, nerds, art kids and anybody else because he had a very charismatic personality. He was a social butterfly. Cesca on the other hand was what a lot of people called a loner. She spent most of her time, school lunches included, in the art classes and ceramics room. She had only one real close friend through high school and that was her boyfriend, Bret.
She was still pretty popular a lot do to her brother and her constant appearance at parties but she kept herself distant from other girls her age. Bret and her broke up her senior year when she caught him cheating on her with
her own brother. It was this that finally brought her out of her shell. She started hanging out with everyone she had ever met even briefly. She began to party a lot more and supplying alcohol to a lot of her friends. She changed a lot from this experience and decided to speak up a lot more, she wasn't going to be alone like that again. Cesca's mom worked as a show girl and her dad was a dealer both in the same casino so she spent a lot of time there. Her favorite part was seeing all the different people that came and went through Vegas. After graduation she bought herself a motorcycle with money she had been given by her grandparents and that she had been which she instantly fell in love with and rides all the time now. That same year her mom passed away when she got drunk and wrecked her car over the edge of an embankment. Cesca had been upset and mourned for months. She scattered her mom's ashes over the winds. That was the year she graduated high school. Her brother is a junior in college this year and has already been suspended once for sneaking into class as a gas to steal the answer sheets. Cesca didn't feel comfortable in college anymore as an art major after her mom passed on and remembered that her Dad had offered to send her to a private college in New York for mutants only. Cesca's brother did not want to go and Cesca was okay with that because they had been on bad terms for a long time. Not really having many connections left since her mom's death and her brother and she stopped talking she packed her bags and made her way for the Grey Institute. Cesca spent the last few months of her freshman college year at the Institute and attended graduation. During a stoned adventure she was given her code-name by Chance, Celestial. As summer approached she decided to attend Excalibur in England so she could learn more about control of her powers. That didn't last long as she quickly went back home to Vegas. Once in Vegas she made amends with her brother and even her ex-boyfriend, Bret She started hanging out with all her friends and her former roommate from college. She spent the summer partying with them and is ready to go back to school again for her first full year as a college sophomore at the Grey Institute.
Over the next year at the Institute, Cesca grew to have a lot of friends at the Institute. She quickly became best friends with Clover. The two girls were placed on an undercover mission alongside Gunner. The three, much to Gunner's chagrin, became very good friends over this time. Cesca even roomed with Clover for that entire year. She dated Apollo, a fellow student, all through out that year and attended prom and other events with him. But, the two broke up when Cesca did drugs, Apollo not approving of these
activities
Cesca spent the summer after that working as a full time bartender and further mending the relationship with her brother. Over the summer she met a man, Steven Scott, and the two were bartenders together. One night she got drunk and the two were married. Going back to school, she was sad to leave Steven. But, the two have kept in contact and Cesca really enjoys when she does get to see him. The two are discussing getting a place together and Cesca leaving Grey. She has considered this, and on Steven's advice to be more adult has moved out of sharing a room with Clover and now has her own room at the Institute.
Over the year Cesca experienced a divorce and found a new relationship in Vincent Khron. Cesca was admitted to a rehabilitation clinic after a bought with alcoholism. She is back at the Institute, but is struggling to not only stay sober but decide what she wants to do with her life. Cesca was depressed and unsure of what the future holds for her. She spent a good chunk of time with Vincent and just being around the mansion. If she wasn't with Clover she was out with Vincent. Eventually though Cesca began drinking again and broke up with Vincent in a rather messy moment.
After spending some time at home and the SHIELD take over of the mansion, Cesca (having graduated with a degree in Social Sciences) is considering going further and getting a masters so she can be a social worker. She had a bit of a falling out with her best friend Clover, though the two seem to have resolved things. She is also working a bit harder at staying sober again after pressure to do so from her friends. Though it is secretly bothering her she has to deal with them still drinking when she isn't allowed too.
She struggled with trying to stay sober and as the year came to a close with the mansion being destroyed and Elisa's death, Cesca moved back into just partying, she didn't want to feel anything anymore. She moved down to Emma Frost's school to continue her schooling and education. She wanted to get her degree and didn't feel much interest in being an X-Man anymore. She was doing decently in school and things seemed to be just flowing along, but then they took a turn for the worst.
Shortly after Cesca moved in with Dash, spending almost a year living with Dash, she spiraled downward quickly, spending most of her conscious time intoxicated. It resulted in her being kicked out of the Massachusetts Academy and her being pushed into rehabilitation for a second time. She went willing this time and spent six months at a highly intensive rehab facility. On her day to reconcile things she had Dash, Clover, Gabe and Vincent all come, feeling she owed them all different apologies and explaining how she had done a lot of things she regretted while drunk. She moved out of Dash's place after a lot of thinking, she needed to work on herself for a long while and being with Dash wasn't going to give her the chance to do that. Their relationship ended fairly easily.
Going back to University Nevada Las Vegas, Cesca became a Bachelor student. She moved back in with her parents, shortly afterwards her brother was arrested for possession of Meth and wrecking his boyfriend's stolen car. Cesca was sad, but she had sort of seen her own brother spiraling that direction for awhile now. She graduated with her Masters in Social Sciences, still unsure of what she wanted to do with it, but loved the idea of figuring out the mind, of figuring out why people did things and how addictions worked. It helped her a lot with her own struggles and helped her stay sober by focusing on the whys of things.
When the school was rumored to be opening again, Cesca volunteered for staff work, she was surprised when David asked her to try out for the X-Men team as well. She did and was both excited and glad when she was accepted onto the team. Stepping into the school as the Counselor she has loved the first year and a half of the school being opened, she also loves being back on the West Coast of the country. Its a lot easier to pop down to Idaho to see her cousins or Nevada to see her family then it was before, having to always rely on Dallas.
Cesca has been sober for just over three years now, she is happy being sober and doesn't touch alcohol at all. She will still occasionally smoke some weed, but that is the only thing she touches at all when it comes to mind altering substances. Cesca's main vice as of late has been speed and thrills. She has gotten four tickets in the last year for speeding on her motorcycle and she has taken to go cliff jumping, surfing and sky diving on occasion when the thrill fits her mood, it was one of the main reasons she likes being on the X-Men now, she enjoys the thrill of the missions.
Personality: Cesca is upbeat and happy, she is a very positive person. Kind of a big gossip, she loves to talk to people. She worries a lot more about people then she used too, having grown up a lot. She does have a feeling of failure and want when it comes to men, she is fairly convinced she'll never really succeed on that front after multiple failed relationships and a divorce. She is a bit of an adrenaline freak now, loving thrills and high speed activities.
Special Notes (if any): Model: Sophia Bush. Her favorite song is Living on the Edge by Aerosmith.
