A high-school junior, Jean is a vibrant redhead -- very beautiful and very popular. She's the only one from the Xavier Institute who is not regarded as a little weird at Bayville High.

Jean has a sibling relationship with Scott Summers, and likes to push his buttons. Knowing that Scott might have a slight crush on her  she is not above using other people to make Scott jealous.

Although Scott and Jean are in different grades, they have many classes together -- as is the case in high school. Since they are always budding around together, people perceive them as a couple. This will lead to Scott getting razzed and hassled by jealous football players, and other such high school situations.

Because Jean is a cheerleader, she gets to hang out with the other cheerleaders and jocks. And although Scott wouldn't be excluded from such activities, he would keep the perspective that their duties at the Xavier Institute always need to take precedence over, say, going out with other kids. Jean will need to learn this lesson, since she will be pulled in two directions at once.

Jean grew up in Connecticut, in an utterly normal upper-middle-class family. She has a non-mutant sister, and her parents are still alive and happily married. Jean is a telekinetic (TK), enabling her to move objects merely by thinking about it. At first, weight will be a real issue with her -- and she starts out only able to move what she can actually lift with her arms.

Jean has latent telepathic (TP) abilities. Professor X, the world's greatest telepath, will train her to use and refine these powers. However, telepathic abilities are hardly a blessing -- especially in high school! When her TP powers first manifest, Jean will first overhear exactly the last things she'd want to -- especially about herself!

An additional drawback to TP is that some of the things you hear are true, and some of the things may actually be misperceptions, or even outright lies planted into other people's heads.
