History: Hazel was born in Radcliffe, Kentucky, a place where she wasn’t strictly raised. She did learn how to play the piano on her own accord and learned bits and pieces of Mandarin from her parents. Her brother was a major influence for her, being the one who taught her how to fit into society and what was ‘in’. Hazel took up martial arts at a young age, after her brother. This required her to become very flexible and athletic. She was neither smart nor stupid, maintaining an A- average in her classes. Her skills were developed after an encounter with a group of men in an alley, which caused her to freak out and shoot out a burst of light which stunned the men and allowed a frightened Hazel to escape. After staying up at 4 AM playing with small orbs of light, her parents decided it was best to send her to Xavier’s School to cultivate her abilities.
