Personality:
Logan is the kind of kid that has been through ehll and back and still has the ability to smile. He doesn’t like to be reminded of his past and tends to lie about it so he doesn’t have to relive it. Though you won’t catch him lying about anything else. He hates liars, and he only lies to keep himself sane. He doesn’t like when people talk about others behind their back. He’s the kind of person who will tell you like it is to your face. He hates cowards, his father was a coward and he never wants to be like that. He’s blunt to a fault, sometimes and it has gotten him in to trouble with other people. He’s been in his fair share of fights, even though he really doesn’t like to fight, he’ll do it if he hast to.
He likes to be adventurous and will try anything once. He’s tried a lot of things since coming to Tatum and hopes for that to continue He likes to surround himself with people who are open minded and like to do some of the same things that he does. Logan prefers to have a stable amount of close friends, rather than a plethora of people he barely knows. Though, don’t expect for him to open up right away, it takes a little while for him to warm up to people and trust them. But once he does you’re his friend for life.

Biography:
Logan grew up in a fairly normal household, at least that was until he turned thirteen. Upon turning thirteen he found out exactly what he was and he told his parents. What he didn’t know was that his mother had an ability similar to his own. She tried to teach her son how to mature his powers, but this only proved to piss of Logan’s father, Travis. Travis had been fearing that his son would be a ‘freak’ like his mother was and he would tell his wife that he didn’t want his son using his abilities at all, but Yvette wouldn’t listen to him. She wanted her son to accept who he was, unlike herself, who had to hide her abilities from everyone including her family.
One night his father had enough and beat Yvette right in front of Logan, telling him that he was next. He told the fourteen fourteen year old boy that he was the reason for this. He was the reason that he was beating his mother. The man wouldn’t stop and Logan was frozen in his spot, it didn’t stop until the police came because a neighbor called and arrested Logan’s father – only to find that his mother had died from blood loss. He spent the next two years in and out of foster homes, until he was shipped off to Tatum for a ‘better life’.
New to the town, Logan has been trying to get a hold of himself and has found that laughter and good friends have helped him forget about his past. He doesn’t want to forget his mother, but he would like to forget that night. So, in order to keep himself from thinking about it, he tells people that his parents died after he was born and he has been shuffled in and out of foster homes, until finally winding up here. Logan hopes that he’ll be able to completely lose his past and hang on to the good memories that he can hold on to, but will his lying make him forget completely?
