Ianto Pryce is a Welshman who moved to New York in hopes of starting anew after becoming a social outcast due to his power. He does his best to hide it, but he always winds up using his power for good causes, whether he wants to or not. Thus, he traps himself in social paranoia.

History

rcoyle2.jpg

Before being alienated by his fellow classmates in high school, he was quite athletic and lived a relatively normal life. Then his evolved ability came shining through one cross country race and it all changed. Once he graduated from high school, having been abandoned by the friends he had in the perception that he was a freak, he left his home to start a new life in New York.

As he works and lives in Manhattan, he carries on all the while keeping his power hidden from everyone as not to live the pain of being alone again. Will he succeed? Or can he reveal his ability without wrongful and quixotic judgment?
… Stay tuned!

Trivia

rcoyle3.jpg
  • In high school, Ianto was involved in more then just cross country. He showed promise in rugby, soccer (or, as he would have it, "football"), and track.
  • Ianto only had a few friends and one girlfriend. He never carried much social weight.
  • His last name, Pryce, is said to have been mistakenly derived from the Welsh family name "ap Rhys". The surname prefix "ap" means "son of" in old Welsh naming.
