Personality:
Julian could easily be described as an arrogant douchebag. In fact, almost everyone who knows him would describe him as an arrogant douchebag. He was renowned for having a huge ego and bragging about it, shoving it into everyone's faces and reminding them that they aren't as good as him. He was -- and sometimes -- is arrogance epitomized, inevitably coming off as quite the elitist, looking down on others who didn't agree or follow him, or just those he deemed weren't as good or qualified to be alongside of him. He's a troublemaker, someone who resists authority, and in the end, finds that only his word is right and that all else should believe in what he says. It doesn't help that he's charismatic too. In fact, enough that, while his jerkiness was obvious and everyone knew it, people were drawn to him despite this, if only for the charm he can fake and his natural good looks.
Of course, he's flirtatious. He objectifies women and spends most of his time making crude comments, and yet, somehow always getting the girl. And, of course, Julian's a bully -- manipulative and almost cruel at times, vicious to those he can't stand or are against, and relentless when it comes to getting them back. He's almost immature because of this, bratty when he doesn't get what he wants and vindictive, determined, stubborn, and inevitably, thinking only for himself and his ego. (Yes, there was the loyalty and his passion for his friends, but most of the time, he comes first.)
After all the events that happened to him though, Julian could be described as someone who matured. Using the word very, very loosely. However, instead of growing up into, say, a sensible adult with good moral values or whatever consists of sensible adults, Julian, like the other students, only grew bitter and somewhat serious (with a small sprinkling of PTSD to boot! Oh boy!) He became much more quiet and someone who spent a lot less time smirking and a lot more scowling at, well, everything. His arrogance quickly grew into something of a superiority complex, especially against the humans of his world, with him firmly believing that they couldn't live amongst one another, or the mutants must live on top. He was quick to refer to them as cavemen and even quicker to harm and beat them down. Julian grew to be reckless and headstrong, someone who jumped into anything without thinking, despite his insistence on having a "plan" and the plan leading to them "getting arrested" because that was a good idea.
Sure, he may be smart but he wasn't a genius and he sure didn't like to use his brain a lot, going into everything irrationally or just thinking, "fight" when the options may not just be "fight or flight". He wasn't someone who saw the big picture, just a small little clip of the current scenario he was in. He doesn't think of consequences and he doesn't think ahead, only thinking of the here and now, despite his claims of being "of the future". And his recklessness and headstrong-hood only adds up to his one major quality that developed from having a slight temper to being something that was truly frightening -- his temper. Julian grew to have rather impressive anger issues, ones that need to be pointed out almost all the time. To add to his short fuse, not only does he snap very quickly, his temper becomes something to fear with the way his telekinesis is prone to affect it and the things around him. And he's easily set off, whether it be comments from people, actions done by others, or something done by himself, taking it out on those around him and becoming almost blinded by who he could hurt or how many relationships he could lose. In fact, Julian lost a sense of making a real relationship that was anything outside of sexual satisfaction, and became almost unable to process real romantic feelings. It was part fear of becoming attached only for his heart to be broken again and another part just having a real inability to understand it. Julian grew to suppress most of his emotions, such as sadness or depression or anything of the like, and instead, bottled it all up and if he were to release his emotions, only doing so in a violent or a moment of rage. When he lost his hands, Julian's reaction was one of bitterness and constant complaining, but there was no real outlash until he was fighting an infected Karima. This could be shown as yet, more fear of having to confront something that he was afraid of or didn't understand.
Julian became someone who refused to be censored and refused to be kept down. He wouldn't take orders from anyone and he was constantly trying to make himself first. His opinions were always right and whether it was because of his spoiled childhood or because of his inability to let anyone else be the leader, Julian often finds himself in conflict or confrontation with almost everyone. It's not that he can't be a good person or a good friend, it's just that he always has to be right. Or on top. It's the alpha male in him -- Julian acts aggressively if he feels threatened in anyway and tends to lash out irrationally or becomes easily provoked. He has to prove himself to be the best and that everyone should follow his lead.
Despite all of his flaws though and there's a great many of them, Julian still remains extremely protective to his friends and the people he cares and holds closely, protecting them no matter what and at any costs. He's willing to travel to great lengths to stand by them and has a great sense of loyalty, whether it's to his companions or his species. He can be very caring and has a softer side that he puts up walls around at all times, only showing such a side to his friends and girls that he knows very well. He can be very gentle and an understanding person, proven to be someone who's good at listening to others' problems when he wants to and good at comforting when he can. He can have something similar to a big brother complex and has an unfortunate weakness to less than aggressive girls, bonding with them better than he would anyone else. Even if he's still a flirtatious pervert who often thinks with his dick than he does his brain.
And even with his his trouble-making nature and the constant rage that bubbles under the surface now, Julian for the most part, comes off as angry and quiet. He's quick to shrug people off he's disinterested in and ignore those who he couldn't be bothered with. The cold shoulder is his favourite response to use, and if he wants to say something, it's usually dripping with sarcasm and an almost cruelty. The childish naivety is gone and his ideals of fame and glory are replaced with something similar to walking the fine line between justice and sadistic tendencies -- finding himself willing to almost kill or brutally harm those just to project a selfish sort of revenge upon them, or just because it gives him the concept that he won. Going from someone with strong ethic morals and a firm belief in killing, Julian has developed a skewed morality, clouded by his own selfishness and frustration.
Julian grew from an arrogant, spoiled brat of a wannabe-hero to someone who saw the harshest side of a society that hates his kind, and grew only to survive this cruelty and prejudice, leaving, if anything, someone "of the future".
Flavor Abilities:
His powers are his mutant gene -- his telekinesis. Without that, he's a normal human.
Suitability:
Julian has a stubborn streak to him and that means he won't back down from a tough situation. Despite the fact that he'll be extremely out of his comfort zone in regards to weather, lack of powers, everything, he won't give up. He keeps a cool head in tough situations and surprisingly, he'll keep an eye out for the little guy! Or rather, girls. He'll end up hoarding rations that he can find and protect himself the best he can, but not before he makes sure the people he cares about are taken care of first.
