Sofia’s mutation concentrates on not so much ‘the wind’, but air itself. This allows her what she refers to as ‘TK for those of us not fond of brain hemorrhages’. While obviously she can not affect matter on a molecular scale, and she neither has extended her abilities to, say, bend metal, she can move things around quite easily, including herself, and create a considerable amount of damage with the creation of small – and sometimes not so small – hurricanes. On the more creative side, Sofia is capable of carrying sound to her, allowing her to hear, for example, distant conversations, disrupting the equilibrium of others with a quick blast in the ear and is even capable of stealing the oxygen right out of their lungs. The possibilities for her mutation are somewhat endless. She has seamlessly incorporated her mutation into her very lifestyle, whether it be the fluidity of her movements, her lack of closing doors by touch or simply the gentle breeze that seems to constantly follow her, windows opened or closed.
Sofia is very comfortable and even proud of her mutation, but doesn’t feel the need to push the limits of it either; it’s merely a part of who she is and in no way defines her.
Equipment
None. Well, really fantastic shoes at all times.
