Ability: Can absorb and manipulate surrounding light into 'hard light' constructs, forming luminescent weapons and armor.
Powers are directly linked to current exposure to light. The more light that is available to create the constructs, the more powerful, durable and bright/hard to look at they are.
The constructs dissipate the moment he is not longer touching them.
Using his power absorbs the light from the light source. If in a room with a single light bulb, using his power would make it appear the light bulb is off while his weapon/armor/construct would be the only illumination in the room.
He can create constructs while standing outside in sunlight/moonlight and then walk inside with them, but they will slowly weaken and deteriorate over time, becoming more transparent as they do.
Typically prefers to wield a large Hammer formed of hard-light and style his armor upon medieval knights.
Bio: Dominic is from a heavily religious family but is extremely interested in science and technology. He finds himself often torn morally between his faith and his studies / between his friends and his family.
His family believe his powers are a divine gift whilst his colleague and the X-Men have informed him he is actually an evolved mutant and ask him to come with them.
He eventually accepts but hides it from his family, feigning maintain his enrollment at university.
Prominent X-Men relationships: Kurt and Hank, both of whom he often talks to about his issues with faith and science respectively.
