Kylun's only mutant ability is something he finds a little embarrassing, especially compared to the flashy, dramatic, useful powers possessed by most of the people at Xavier's. He can exactly replicate any sound he hears, from the call of a chickadee to the crack of a home run to the honk of a car horn to a full orchestra performance. However, he can only replicate sound--if he imitates someone's voice, he must do so using the words he heard that voice say, at exactly the volume and tone he heard those words spoken. He considers this ability a parlor trick that he isn't particularly proud of, and won't demonstrate it unless pressed.
He is much more proud of his other skills--Kylun is an expert martial artist and swordsman, who maintains and improves his skills with daily practice. His strength, agility, and speed are all within human capability, but definitely on the high end of the bell-curve.
The mental discipline of the Zz'rian monks gives Kylun excellent psychic shielding--a sufficiently powerful, sufficiently determined psion could breach them, but his mind is basically impenetrable to casual scans. His shields are a conscious, self-willed act, and he can lower them if he chooses.

Kylun: Stolen from his family for sacrifice by a cult worshipping the evil entity Necrom, led to believe his parents were dead, the young Colin McKay - obviously a mutant from birth with his fur, his lion-like facial appearance and claws on his hands and feet - was rescued by a group of monks, sworn enemies of the Necrom cult. Named "Kylun", he was brought up as a warrior and he came to the school seeking refuge after his second 'family' - including his wife - perished in a last, victorious battle against Necrom. A man adrift in the modern world, Kylun found purpose with the X-Men. Upon discovering his true family were actually alive, he left to join them in Edinburgh, reestablishing ties with his long-lost parents. Raised to duty and battle, however, the warrior-monk may very well return to rejoin the fight for mutant rights.
