Another Post About the_gifted...

[calliopes_pen]

Turns out that the_gifted doesn't have an Illyana Rasputin. (Or if they do, I don't see her listed anywhere, and must have missed it if it was.) She's my favorite character from the original New Mutants.

After I write up her history, I'll send in an application for her. (Give me a while, she's had the most complicated life of all the X-Men...other than Jean--and the rest of the Summers clan.)

And for her year of birth, I'm trying to figure it out. I made her birthday month April. (New Mutants #14 of the original series came out in April. That was the issue with her birthday. So her birthday will be April 14th. Yes, I'm a total geek. I admit it.)

Can anyone help with the birth year? I want to make sure I don't mess up.

She's 16 years old in this game. She was kidnapped by Belasco when she was 7, and spent 7 years in Limbo. What would be the right year for her to be born in that case?

ETA: Keep in mind that 7 years in Limbo equals probably 7 seconds in normal time.

ETA 2: OK, since it was pointed out that the story took place shortly before Christmas, I'm changing her day of birth to December 14th.
