Vampire.

Lecturer at a university during night shifts.

He's a lone stranger who wanders the streets at night patiently waiting for the right person to capture. Of course, he drinks supplements too, cause drinking too much human blood can make him a little tipsy, and he tries to avoid going through that direction. He works and teaches students at a university because there are less people studying at that time and they're also less annoying, not to mention, no sun to be seen.

Reading peoples mind. Thats basically all he needs, i'm pretty sure theres more but, i'm sure he'll discover them sooner or later.

If my toddler won't behave, I might climb up to the highest tower with him hanging from my fingertips only to just drop him from mid-air, just enough time for me to catch him at the bottom of the floor just before he crashes and lands. And then i'll tell him off and teach him a lesson, hoping that he'll understand. But of course, i'm not entirely a cold hearted person, i'll treat him out for some ice cream or something as a sign of our promise.
