OOC: alot of this had to be improvised or copy/pasted cause it's hard to find info on this guy XD Did the best I could. Also, it's 5 in the morning, so if this makes NO sense whatsoever, let me know and I'll redo it when I'm functioning properly

Name: Joshua "Jay" Guthrie
Code Name: Icarus
Affiliation: Institute for gifted kiddies
Age:17
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 193
Hair color:Red (dyed)
Eye color: Green
General Appearance: First thing you notice about Jay are his red wings. With a 15ft wing span and being red in color, it's hard to NOT notice them. Generally he keeps them out and in the open but there was a time when he first got them that he kept them hidden, only pulling them out on stage while performing with his band as a stage gimmick. His red hair has a gentle wave, falling to just above his shoulders. Normally it isn't pulled back and hangs in his face, but occasionally he has it held back by a small black hair-tie.
His clothing changes from time to time, but he mostly sticks to jeans or slacks and a tank top. Sometimes it's difficult to find shirts for him (and his wings) but he deals with it, he isn't one to fret over his wardrobe. He also has a scar over his chest from when he tried killing himself, it remains to be the only scar on his body that his healing factor won't fix. His stance is normally contraposto, leaning from one leg to the other, or crouched down over his knees. If he isn't hiding his wings, the are folded gently behind his body. His face is that of a typical pretty boy, a soft look to his skin and a strong jaw line. Normally, he seems devoid of any expressions on his face, or just deep in thought.
Personality: Icarus keeps to himself, spending much of his time playing on his guitar. This leads many to believe he is anti social and hates interaction. In truth, Jay keeps to himself out of the lingering depression from Julias death and his suicide attempts. For the most part, he is over her but emotional scars still rake his body and demeanor. When it comes to friends, Jay is very caring and loving, willing to do almost anything for them. Sometimes, he plays as the voice of reason, trying to talk friends out of doing something which might get them in trouble, but ultimately going with them incase they need his help.
When on stage or performing, another side of Jay comes out; the show stopper. While on stage, Jay can get the crouds going like no other and is full of energy. On and off stage, Jay knows what people want and for the most part, is willing to give it to them, if it was within his power.
X-Factor: Red Wings which allow flight, Strong regenerative abilities and he can mimic any sounds he hears.
Power Details: Red-colored, feathered angel-like (a 15ft wing span) wings allow flight and produce extensive regenerative enzymes allowing him to recover from normally fatal injuries. His voice is capable of producing sonic frequency beyond the range of human capability as well as creating multiple sounds or voices at once.
He also has the healing factor and can heal almost immediatly from a fatal wound. However, this healing factor comes from his wings. If something were to badly hurt his wings or if he had his wings cut off his healing powers will fail to help him and he would die(if the injury were fatal).
General Skills: Skilled in Guitar playing and singing
Brief History: Jay is the son of Thomas Zebulon Guthrie, also referred to as "Ty" and "Zeke," and Lucinda Guthrie. Thomas dies early in Jay's life due to black lung, developed from working in the local coal mines. Jay's siblings Sam, Paige, Jeb and Melody are mutants as well. He has several other human brothers and sisters, and his whole family is generally hated by his home town due to the fact that they all seem to be developing mutant powers.
Jay fell in love with Julia Cabot, but due to a long feud between the Guthries and the Cabots a fight broke out. Jay was struck down by Julia's father, who had acquired and modified some superpowered armor. Believing Jay to be dead, Julia dragged Jay's body to the river. She wrapped his arms around her, heading for the deepest part of the river. The two sank to the river's bottom and Julia subsequently drowned. Neither Jay nor Julia were aware of Jay's mutant regenerative powers, but when Jay sank to the bottom of the river, these powers manifested. Jay awoke at the bottom of the river with Julia in his arms. He swam to the surface with her and brought her to the riverbank. When he discovered she was dead, he tried (unsuccessfully due to his healing factor) to stab himself in the heart with a sharp piece of wood. Warren Worthington arrived on the scene, found Jay, and helped him carry Julia's body back to the Guthrie house.
After Julia's death, Jay attempted to kill himself a few more times, hoping his healing factor would fail. Eventually his mother sent him to the Xavier Institute against his will. Jay speculated this was just so she wouldn't feel guilt if he tried to hurt himself again.
Sample Post: Jay walked down the mahogany lined hallways of the institute, guitar in hand and heading for the garden. The birds singing and the breeze blowing made for a beautiful day, one were he could hopefully get some song writing done. He had only been there for a day or two and was starting to get used to his surroundings. It was a big change to be away from his family and home, but 'mother knows best'. Icarus scoffed out loud at the thought that his mother had simply sent him there so she didn't have to deal with if he tried to hurt himself again. Still, in all the place wasn't bad. He had a room to himself (for now) and kids his own age.
The thought on his mind today was that of school. He was allowed to attend Bayville High, but the question remained to how he could hide his wings. He had heard kids talking when he first arrived at the mansion about some kid named Warren who also had wings, but when Icarus passed by the boys room, he didn't appear to have any, though he DID have a trench coat on. Maybe that was how he could go to school. Before Jay knew it, he was already outside. He smiled, breathing in the air before making his way under a big oak tree to finally relax and get some songs done. "Finally some shade..." Jay said aloud to himself. "Now maybe I can get some work done." he said, sitting down and getting to work.
