Baati is the kind of kid who likes to make other kids feel included. He's studious, courteous, well-behaved, and at his most comfortable when he's been given a job to do and the tools to do it. Originally from Ethiopia, he came to the United States at age seven when his parents took jobs at a tech firm in Boston. At first deep in culture shock, he made it a point to learn flawless English, and can switch between American, British, and Australian accents with near-perfect accuracy. He also made it a point to learn how to make friends, which frequently meant learning how to reach out to other kids who also didn't have any friends yet. 

Baati's powers manifested at age thirteen, causing him and his family considerable distress before they came to grips with what was actually going on. The FBI caught wind of it and passed word to the CIA, which offered to place Baati in a special program called DAAT (Deviant Asset Ability Training); his parents decided that he was too young, and refused. Shortly after that, Headmaster Saint-Vincent got in touch with them and after visiting the school they decided to enroll Baati there. As Spectre, Baati can step slightly outside of reality to become invisible and/or intangible; he can also communicate telepathically, but only through physical contact. (This still works when he's invisible and intangible, though, so he's quite capable of "haunting" anyone who lacks psychic defenses -- though he would find the idea completely appalling.)
