How about this as an updated personality section? Anything else you need me to add or will this be alright?
Silas is a bright and cheerful boy with an excitable demeanor. He thinks he would genuinely enjoy the thrill of crime fighting and helping people and cannot wait for the more intensive combat classes he will soon be receiving. He wants to be a hero to use his talents to help people and though he understands the risks involved, he admires those like him (like the X-Men) and aims to be as brave as them one day and fight for what is right regardless of the risks from enermies and misunderstanding innocents alike. Silas is quick-witted and seemingly tireless and ambitious. His animated nature often comes across as fidgety or busy and this can sometimes be offensive to people who think he is being insincere. He is bold and resourceful but his gullible, often tactless comments and actions can get him into trouble at times. He likes to believe the best in people and therefore has a hard time understanding why people might ever hurt other purposefully but his ignorant, innocent thinking is often thought of as naive and childish of a boy his age, in his situation. Silas is also an incredibly tolerant boy, having not only come into contact with many who experienced similar situations as his own at Helix but also a great variety of people throughout his life who are very different; his language skills also help him accel at the tolerance of cultures and beliefs due to the distinct tie between these concepts.

Since Collin rarely uses his powers I think he will have a hidden power similar to combustion man from avatar that he doesn't know about.

All right!
In the same vein, if people would like to add on latent/minor abilities (within reason, of course), just let me know.

Katerina 'Kisa' Kuznetsov (a.k.a. Affinity)
gender Female | age 17 | sexual orientation Heterosexual
power(s) Empathic Manipulation
Kisa is aware of the emotions of those around her, however if she is in the midst of a large crowd she is unable to discern which emotion is emanating from whom. She is currently incapable of turning off this ability. She can also influence the emotions of others as long as she is maintaining direct skin contact.
appearance Platinum blond hair worn short and somewhat choppy with pale green eyes. Her skin is rather pale and she has a petite stature standing at exactly 5'.
When it comes to clothes, Kisa is the sort that wears whatever feels comfortable even if it's not the most flattering. She usually wears layers even when it's not cold.
personality Despite her powers, of perhaps as a result of them, Kisa isn't someone who can express herself clearly and tends to come off as apathetic in general. She usually avoids crowds due to her inability to shut out the emotions of others, but watches things from a distance. When responding to others she can come off as snarky or sarcastic even when she doesn't intend to. To be fair it can be difficult to tell when she's being sincere since her expression and intonation seem to remain about the same either way. When asked she'll always give her honest opinion. Her sense of humor can be a bit dark at times.
Looks like I arrived a bit late to use my own Cecilia haha

noooo cecilia ;w;
I'm going to have to ask you to expand a little on the personality as well - just a few more thorough sentences will do the trick. The description is a little too cursory; maybe expand on why she's insert-trait-here or find other ways to go into depth?

Dr. Jeremy Vause (a.k.a. Donor)
gender Male | age 38 | sexual orientation Demisexual
occupation Doctor/Medicine Development | subject School Health Professional
power(s) Hemokinesis and Regeneration
He can freely control his own blood and solidify it into a crystal-like substance used to create claws, weapons, and a shield. His main methods of fighting (if needed) are claws made of blood, firing darts from his palms, and whips that extend from between his fingers. By controlling his blood and levitating it, he can in turn levitate himself, but it takes a lot of focus to keep his blood moving. His blood contains a healing property that allows all of his tissue and blood to regenerate rapidly. A transfusion of his blood allows you to temporarily gain his ability to heal rapidly, and he has a universal blood type unique to him. He is also immune to most diseases and his cells have been the key to curing many blood-related diseases.
appearance Dr. Vause is a tall man standing at 6'3 with an impressive physique, but he is by no means 'ripped'. Despite his age he appears to be in his early 20's, which is all thanks to his power of regeneration. His skin is a bit pale due to him spending a lot of time inside. His face is chiseled and handsome, causing him to get a lot of remarks saying he looks like a Soap Opera Doctor. He has grey eyes and short brown hair that is kept parted neatly and combed back. He has the beginnings of a beard and mustache growing on his face. Even though he appears to be youthful, the hair on the sides of his head are grey from an X-gene unrelated mutation.
His work uniform consists of slacks/khakis and a button up shirt with a long white labcoat worn over it. He spends so much time working in his office he is rarely seen without the labcoat. When he isn't working he usually wears a T-shirt and jeans with sunglasses. When he uses his powers all of the veins in his body bulge and his irises turn the color of blood.
personality Soon~

ughhhh I was just about to respond and then I fell asleep on my laptop. I am a mess.
Anyways, pandora, accepted! I'll go edit that in.
Also, clef, re: sexual orientation, I think the descriptor you're looking for may be panromantic demisexual? ignore this brainfart

Hmmm, I don't think that's quite right though either, Wyndi. Demisexual just means that someone cannot crave sexual intimacy with a person unless they get to know them first on an emotional level but panromantic implies that they are interested in romantic relationships with anyone, regardless of sex/gender/appearance. However, while a panromantic demisexual would come close, I think it's important to remember that romantic orientations and sexual orientations, while often matching, are not always the same things and therefore unless Clef specifies he does not care about gender/appearance on a romantic level (he has only mentioned sexually so far based on a sexual orientation), the proper terminology would be pandemisexual as I understand it.

Dennis 'Dujun' Yoo (a.k.a. Castle) gender male | age 16 | sexual orientation Asexual
power(s) The ability to turn his body to sand and project sandstorm from his hands, Dennis is literally living sand and due to this he is almost indestructible due to being able to simply collapse into sand and not take damage. He's also able to project sand into weapons such as turning his arm into a mullet to use for example. The easiest way to stop him is to spray him with water- the water solidifies his sand into mud and renders him unable to move until he's evaporated or comes in contact with fire(which may or may not worsen things because it'll end up tempering his body). It's also infinitely easier to separate the sand he collapses into, since he cannot reform until a certain amount of sand is obtained. (Think of it as having a little dirt friend with only two eyes and a mouth begging you to put him back together- yeah, it's quite a huge tradeoff.) He can also draw organic compounds from his surroundings that have a similar construct to sand such as cement or bricks, but due to how volatile and confusing this secondary ability is, he only uses it when he's bound or immobilized by water.
appearance Most of the time Dennis appears in a human form, a sandy-haired teenager with bright chocolate pupils and tan skin. He's tall and fairly muscular despite not needing to be buff or whatever, and tends to wear a black trenchcoat with a tight grey collared shirt underneath. The boy usually wears khaki slacks, revealing a pair of toned thighs that most girls would die for. For a person that's literally made of sand, his skin is unusually pristine and devoid of any form of grainy scarring anywhere. Oddly enough, there is a huge scar on his back in the event anyone is able to see it- nobody knows about this except the school's doctor and the principal of the premise.
personality Witty, snarky and friendly by nature, Dennis is like the class clown of every occasion. He likes being cool and swaggy, which pays off seeing as he's one of the more popular kids in school. He's also a prankster, often abusing his abilities to scare or confuse students he dislikes or even teachers. Due to an incident involving someone else losing control of their abilities, he's very obsessed with getting stronger and protecting his friends to prevent another incident like this from happening again. Dennis often prefers to surround himself with people to hide a crippling sense of loneliness and inferiority he feels within, since he's almost never recognized as a mutant within his family or anywhere outside of Helix. To him, Helix is a refuge where he can finally be himself.

Mdf ahhh you're right, of course. Sorry, looks like I thought that since sexual orientation had been addressed, anything left was romantic orientation (...even though demisexuality and pansexuality address different aspects of sexuality. good job there, brain). Ignore what I said, clef!
--
drac I'M SO TIRED I READ HIS POWER AS BEING ABLE TO PROJECT SAND FROM HIS SAND HANDS otl i also spent five minutes laughing at sandy-haired but that's a normal thing for me probably
Accepted; will add if brain functionality allows.

no
I am literally waiting for a time where someone accidentally mixes sand!Dujun with a bunch of other sand-like compounds like chalk or clay. You'd see Dujun reappear with varying shades of skin tint from black(charcoal) to pale white(chalk).
