Angel
(Warren Worthington III) (Profile #1 - Early)
Context
The Angel (Warren Worthington III) was one of the original X-Men who appeared in 1963. He went on to have a storied career spanning decades. Though he remained primarily associated with the X-Men, he had a wide span of activities (so to speak).
This old profile is primarily concerned with a game stats estimate for Angel as he appeared during the early 1960s. It is not even a gisted profile, and will have to be reworked to more modern standards.

Powers & Abilities
Angel can, well, fly by flapping his wings.
Also, his entire anatomy is enhanced to deal with flying. This is most apparent in his eagle-like sight and how his hollow bones can endure falls and collisions.
History
See the Angel (classic) writeup. Note that, at this point of his history, his parents are still alive.
Description
As a civilian, the Angel dresses like a rich, young snob (expensive white suits and the like).
Personality
A this point, Warren Kenneth Worthington III is pretty much a rich brat. He acts like a damn snob, a kid who’s accustomed to having a nice sports car, the best-looking girls and the best entertainment. In particular, he has difficulties accepting Cyclops giving him orders, and wants to date Jean (causing deep teenage angst for Scott).
However, he’s a genuine do-gooder, and the most experienced of the bunch – making him reasonable competent and effective. He’s also already a decent team player, although the group is still quite a chaotic bunch.
