A bit about me
Hello! Hi! You can call me Gothic (the character/oc that runs this blog), if you would like, I'm not too keen about sharing my name yet. Gotham is a big city, but I'm pretty easy to spot in a crowd.
My meta gene activated when I was really young, to the point where I don't even remember why or how, but it effects the way I look more-so than giving me noticeable powers that some other metas have.
My friends joke that people, animals and plants just seem... healthier around me, but I do not think it is related.
My mum says that the mutation I have may be genetically tied - as one of my relatives had traits that were similar. What this exactly means - I have little idea. Doctors have been no help in the matter.
I am often able to cover the mutations with hats and other clothing, but shoes have been difficult to manage. I have yet to find a pair I can appropriately modify.
Thankfully this has allowed me to fly under the radar for rogues thus-far, but I worry.
I was raised in Central City, where my family still lives, but I moved to Gotham to attend school. I currently live in the student housing, but have plans to move into an apartment closer to the botanical gardens once spring hits.
My personal favorite heroes are the Flash and Wonder Woman.
Favorite vigilante is Spoiler. She's amazing.
Some other notable people you may see on my blog!:
Toby -- My lab partner in the Botany lab, and overall a good guy. He knows about the blog, and occasionally posts on my behalf. He is a TA for a biology lecture.
My mum -- has supported me from day one in pursuing my degree. She is my go-to person for information, and helped me find scholarships for different universities.
My aunt Kay -- "Kay" is short for... something. She has never told me what it is short for. She works as a musician.
Dustin -- My friend from childhood who is attending school in Metropolis.

Now! About the person behind the blog! Hi there! You can call me Beck. I'm a fairly casual fan of all things DC, and am working on familiarizing myself with more the fandom as a whole. Most of my DC knowledge is centered around film/animation/info from friends, and as such I am not in the know about everything in the comics. I know some of the MAJOR events, but not everything. I apologize in advance if anything I post doesn't fit the canon, but this blog is mostly to have fun and get my creative writing fixations out into the world. Feel free to interact with Gothic as much as you would like! I love seeing people enjoy my writing and expand upon it.
If you have any questions, send them in, and I will answer them to the best of my ability!
