Furthermore, Adrian is good-looking, charismatic and charming.

Backstory: Adrian Carver was a curious boy who grew up with a life of privilege and the finer things in life, but his world changed the day he got his first camera. He took picture of any and everything and found himself wanting to tell stories that went with the pictures. Harboring a love for writing as well, Adrian, began to explore the world of journalism in high school, then studied it college. Adrian traveled the world with his camera, creating home-made news reports that he put up on his website “The World in 360”, which still exists today.
Adrian used his uncle’s political connections to get himself a job as an intern with the Central Intelligence Agency for two years, but eventually, he chose to become a television reporter. Adrian has met both the Pope and the Dali Lama, and had lunch with the Vice-President of the United States. He’s currently a well-known face on CNN’s Adrian Carver 720, and has spoken previously on the issues facing humans in relation to mutants and other super-human types.
How do you plan to introduce the character to the game?: Adrian will begin a slow, steady quest to bring the “super-human issue” back to the forefront of American politics on his show Adrian Carver 720
What are you planning to do with this character? Have Adrian become one of the more vocal proponents of registration for ALL super-types, not just mutants, and be in the thick of the stories that matter most to the American people.
What do you want to see happen with this character?: I want to see Adrian work with others to push his agenda of getting mutants and others to Register and possibly gain further power and exposure as a member of the media.
