{{Tab}}Roscoe is five-foot-four and fervently hoping for a growth spurt. This is particularly unfortunate combined with his sinewy build, which just refuses to bulk up despite his best efforts. He has straight black hair cropped short and not very stylishly, dimples when he smiles, and prominent front teeth. He was supposed to get his braces off like a year ago; he’s still waiting.
{{Tab}}Roscoe is an unassuming Vietnamese-American teenager -- five foot four, skinny, twitchy. He wears almost exclusively athletic clothes, usually with his hood up and earbuds in, looking deceptively like he doesn’t want attention. He's been growing his hair out again, and it's reached an unfortunate length that refuses to lie flat. He has olive-toned skin, thick black hair, dimples when he smiles, and prominent front teeth.

{{Tab}}Roscoe has been hanging around Lassiter for over a year now, so he knows his way around, and pretty much everybody knows him. He doesn't command much respect, but doesn't ask to. He's meek with the labcoats, less meek with the guards, but still respectful enough that he gets away with teenagerness. Keeps to himself around the inmates; has a handful of friends who mostly think of him like a kid brother or occasionally a kid. Somewhat scrappy but tends to lose fights.
{{Tab}}Around Xavier's, Roscoe is best known as yet another Nu-Methean recruited to the school in late 2023, and among that cohort he doesn't stand out ''too'' much; he's still figuring out how to be in high school instead of the labs. Contemporary ex-labrats might know him as that loudmouth kid from Lassiter Cell Block E, where he spent a year and a half challenging everyone he met to a friendly game of chess, or (less likely) as that loudmouth kid from Lavoisier, where he spent three months taking bribes to snoop around in classified filing cabinets. He is highly sociable but habitually rude; if you don't already know he's from Boston, you will soon.

{{Tab}}Could have gone to juvie and saved himself all this trouble, but he’s been told they would have gotten him in the end, anyway. Labrat since October 2021, Lassiter lab since February 2022.
{{Tab}}Raised with very high standards and very little supervision, Roscoe Vo spent the first eleven years of his life figuring out how to overachieve without actually doing any of the requisite work. This worked smoothly for everyone involved until Roscoe developed a mutation. Nobody took this well. At some point in the ensuing collapse of his entire life, Roscoe started acting out a little too destructively and ended up detained in the Prometheus Project, where he remained until its collapse, twenty-one months later. Not long after that, he turned up at Xavier's.

{{Tab}}Roscoe describes his powers as “x-ray vision” but they have little to do with x-rays at all. His vision is exponentially sharper and more fine-tuned than the average human’s, which allows him to see through most solid objects by refocusing his eyes to ignore the particles of matter in the way. His range of vision is not much greater than average, but his visual acuity is something like 20/2.

* Medical breakthroughs Roscoe has aided in: zero. Every few weeks someone new stumbled across his file and got really excited about the potential, whereupon they would go to Lassiter, run a bunch of tests, either come up empty or get their project nerfed by someone in the CIA, and slink away in disgrace. At least one of them did so like three times. LOL suck it.
* Roscoe has actually contributed fairly little to either military or medical science yet; every so often someone new came across his file, got really excited about it, went to Lassiter, ran a bunch of tests, then had their project quietly nerfed by the CIA as soon as they submitted a proposal to move him to a new lab. LOL suck it!
* Good at school. Skipped third grade and was an additional year ahead in math, or at least he was before everything went down.
* If you look very closely at his eyes you can see a lot of odd discoloration, scarring, damage, so on from infections, medical interventions to treat the infections, complications from the medical interventions, you get the picture. He probably won't let you look very closely at his eyes; for some reason he's kinda twitchy about that.
* No longer allowed to have pens. Has stabbed three people with pens. Which isn't a lot, but it's a lot to have had a fairly negligible impact on how nonthreatening people seem to find him. One of them wasn't even in Prometheus. But if you bring it up with anyone who was there you'll get a lot of shrugs and "Eh, the guy was asking for it" and he didn't even die anyway, so it was no big.
* Roscoe has stabbed three people with pens, which maybe isn't a lot, but it's a lot to have had a fairly negligible impact on his reputation.

Are you tired of being nice? Don't you just want to go ape shitt?

Introduction

xxxxxNosy no-goodnik (recovering.)

Description

xxxxxRoscoe is an unassuming Vietnamese-American teenager -- five foot four, skinny, twitchy. He wears almost exclusively athletic clothes, usually with his hood up and earbuds in, looking deceptively like he doesn’t want attention. He's been growing his hair out again, and it's reached an unfortunate length that refuses to lie flat. He has olive-toned skin, thick black hair, dimples when he smiles, and prominent front teeth.

Reputation

xxxxxAround Xavier's, Roscoe is best known as yet another Nu-Methean recruited to the school in late 2023, and among that cohort he doesn't stand out too much; he's still figuring out how to be in high school instead of the labs. Contemporary ex-labrats might know him as that loudmouth kid from Lassiter Cell Block E, where he spent a year and a half challenging everyone he met to a friendly game of chess, or (less likely) as that loudmouth kid from Lavoisier, where he spent three months taking bribes to snoop around in classified filing cabinets. He is highly sociable but habitually rude; if you don't already know he's from Boston, you will soon.

History

xxxxxRaised with very high standards and very little supervision, Roscoe Vo spent the first eleven years of his life figuring out how to overachieve without actually doing any of the requisite work. This worked smoothly for everyone involved until Roscoe developed a mutation. Nobody took this well. At some point in the ensuing collapse of his entire life, Roscoe started acting out a little too destructively and ended up detained in the Prometheus Project, where he remained until its collapse, twenty-one months later. Not long after that, he turned up at Xavier's.

Powers

xxxxxX-ray vision, like Superman but without the super stuff.

Skills

xxxxxPoint karate, sort of out of practice. Minecraft survival mode. Minecraft in general. Fairly good at chess, even better at mind games. Audiovisual tech support and troubleshooting. Reading upside-down and backward, reading really fast. Limited conversational Vietnamese. Cheating at a respectable number of card games, both with and without X-ray vision. Hiding things and then remembering where he hid them.
