Name: Joseph Nohman
Nationality: American
Religious Affiliation: Atheist
Age: 64
Hair Color: white
Eye Color: Light Blue
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 183lbs
Appearance: Joseph is a casual looking guy and despite the fact that he is grey and balding keeps up a youthful demeanor.. He has a small gut but is still very fit someone his age. He tends to hold himself in a way that demands respect and often times people have found themselves saying things they meant to keep secret under his gaze.
Clothing: He dresses very casual wearing jeans and a button up shirt as well as a brown jacket with leather patches on the elbows. He looked to be the traditional college teacher of sorts. He occasionally wore a tie but didn't care for them to much because it adds a barrier between him and the students.
Personality: Joseph is a strict person that doesn't take crap from anyone lower than him in rank and tends to fight with his bosses. This is do to the fact that he "knows" he is right and people are being stupid for not listening to him. Despite this he is a kind old man that wishes to help people which is why he became a teacher in the first place. Because the best way to help someone is to teach them. He will keep his word to people no matter what unless it is life or death then he will do what he thinks is right. Joseph is the kind of person that one can talk to about there personal life and get an honest answer back in return. It may be unprofessional but he likes to bond with his students and in a way is almost a kid himself though he still will not hesitate to lay down the law if needed.
Background: Joseph was born in the 1940's in the city of New York. He had started to have a very normal life his father being a police officer and his mother a housewife as was proper of the time. He went to a public school and this is where he started to develop his powers though he was not aware of it at the time because his is a special type and very rare.
It wasn't until he was 20 did it actually come up. He was in a bank and it was getting robbed as he was about to leave. One of the robbers pulled a gun on a young girl as a hostage and his body started to turn in to flame. Joseph felt something well inside of him and the man was no longer flame and looked shaken at not being flame anymore. This is when Joseph realized he had these powers too that had started to develop about a year ago.
Joseph was taken in by his father to get tested and they found out that he had an ability and from the looks of it was about ten years developed making him one of the first to develop one. Over the years he worked in a small job as a business man traveling around the country selling this product or that item.
News of the so called mutants started to spread and as always people began to fear them and hunted them down to kill them. Riots were started as were groups against them. Many people were killed in the riots before laws were passed to stop it. Joseph had survived them because he was able to blend in and his power went unnoticed. Tired of traveling he eventually settled down by himself not wanting to marry and pass on his "curse" to another generation and decided he would live on through others buy teaching them. So he went back to school and became a teacher and had taught at various high schools in the country.
Then he heard about Alice academy and how they are for children with special gifts and Joseph decided he would go to work there and help some children go through what he did. He is now currently a teacher of the middle school which is the high school grades by the American system.
Alice: He has the power to nullify others Alice's if they are weaker then him and because of how developed his power is he can hold a permanent Field over both the girls and guys locker rooms (so no peeping for you invisible chaps)
