I could wake up late, get delayed by morning chores, get further delayed, then finally get back. Still, I should be done very very soon.

First off, I apologize. This thing is long.

Second off, I apologize. This took forever and I really didn't mean for it to. I guess I needed to scrape off some of the rust as I haven't actually RPed or written anything since February.

Third... Uh.... I'm really sorry if this requires a post of its own. It's 35743 Characters. As quoting in this site absolutely sucks, here's a raw version.

Going to break the rules on purpose here and double post. Without further adieu:

"Oh, you didn't know about that? Well, let me fill you in on a little secret..."

Character Sheet

Name:
Aoife (EE-fa) Halloran, the Magic Detective
Gender:
Female
Age:
18
Appearance:

Altogether lean and at a modest height at 5' 4.5" (163.5 cm), Aoife's is a body wrapped in supple muscles that hint at a lifestyle of high-paced athleticism, providing her with a rather pleasing figure and silhouette with her build metaphorically comparable to that of a large predatory cat. Aoife is possessive of bright red hair neatly cut into short locks, with contrastingly cool grey-green eyes that appear to be capable of quite a good range of expressions. While rarely described as being intense in aura, owning a sharp stare that seems to dissect those under her gaze, Aoife much more commonly displays a varied combination of charm, curiosity and craftiness, carrying a dichotomy where she appears to bear experience in many matters while still carrying an almost child-like intrigue with the world surrounding her, constantly watching her surroundings and other people.

Being something of an honor student, Aoife's choice of wardrobe is modest and functional, often covering much of her skin while affording her a deal of mobility and practicality. Her primary outfit manages to compliment her figure while providing her preferred skin-coverage. Aoife often wears a belt with a clip to hold a grimoire and can be seen carrying a magic amplifying staff that can shrink itself into the size of a wand.

Personality:

Abilities:
Intuitive, experienced, and highly capable in her fields of study, Aoife is a prime example of a functional Magestrava and a “great success” as far as an academic institution can be concerned. Powerfully efficient and efficiently powerful, Aoife is a Magestrava who uses her sharp mind and toned physical features in conjunction with superior magical talents to attain any goals she has set for herself.

  • Outsorcery
    In the magical arts relating to and encompassed by Outsorcery, Aoife has attained a level of talent and wisdom comparable to masters and geniuses. Through years of passionate, rigorous and fiercely determined training, she has found herself achieving a level seemingly beyond her years.

    Fundamentally, she is capable of utilizing the Maians of Xi and Karma to ensconce fine adjustments up to massive changes to the environment surrounding her. Aoife is most proficient in her control over the otherwise fickle and often considered as inflexible element of fire, while she maintains a still admirable degree of control over other elements of the Maian's sphere of influence.



  • Intelligence
    In-line with her personality, Aoife is highly observant and displays a quick-witted intelligence that she uses to maneuver herself through situations as well as daily life. For the most part, Aoife uses her intelligence to process information on her surroundings and/or further her goals and interests. Combined with what she already knows, she shows an incredible intellectual potential, capacity to learn, and a proclivity toward critical thinking. She absorbs information completely and quickly in order to solve problems.

    Aoife works markedly well under pressure, maintaining her composure and calmly analyzing a situation to gather as much information as she possibly can in order to make an incisive action at the right moment. Though this does mean that she may take a respite in a time-sensitive situation in order to decide what would be the best course of action, she does her best not to spend too much time thinking. While she is smart, she is by no means a genius on the level of a savant, and thus she may still have to rush things when the situation calls for it.

    She finds the primary use for her intellectual capacity in aiding herself or allies with investigations, and in combat situations. As a matter of fact, the easiest way to dull her intellect would be to put her in a place where she can’t solve anything, somewhere completely peaceful and without conflicts that need attention.

  • Expert Close Combatant
    Believing it necessary for an investigator to be able to fight their way out of a situation when it’s called for, as opposed to the ability to just run away very fast, Aoife has put a great degree of study and emphasis into honing her strength in combat nonexclusive to spellcasting. From strengthening her muscles to learning to use the physique that she’s gained, she has a markedly developed sense for close combat. By no means as powerful with her fists and staff as she is in spellcasting or in a field of tactics, she is still an apt contender that considers physical prowess a boon to a good Magestrava.

    Notably, Aoife is terrible with swords and knives, preferring to stick to using her staff or using bare fists to take on enemy combatants.



  • Other Skills
    On top of everything, Aoife finishes her list of skills with a strong capacity for infiltration and stealth. She isn’t a master of disguise, but instead quite good at sneaking around unnoticed while using all of her other skills in conjunction to neutralize things like observational wards and conceal herself for long periods of time. Similarly, Aoife uses her limited knowledge of insorcery to shield her mind from the prying eyes of insorcerors as best she can.

    While not a personal ability, Aoife maintains a rather large Intelligence Network inside of the academy, and a smaller one in the nearby city. Due to this, she also knows about the Teacher’s wards, though she’s likely unaware of the Headmaster’s Wards, as that is information that only the Headmaster himself is privy to.

Studying:

  • Outsorcery — Primary Subject

  • Pythomancy — Secondary Subject, knowledge mostly theoretical

  • Alchemy — Knowledge purely theoretical beyond homework, she has an oddly hard time innovating

  • Automancy — Studying for the sake of improving her Reinforcement Spellcraft, also to further her goals of becoming a magical crimes detective

  • Art - Painting/Sketching — Mostly for use as a hobby, though she does try to apply the technical aspects of arts to taking notes and making composites


Interests:
  • Studying, both formal and informal

  • Mystery Stories

  • Mysteries

  • School Rumors

  • Secrets

  • Subterfuge

  • Urban Legends

  • Exercising

  • Inspectors from the Constabulary

  • Teachers

  • Eating Increasingly Spicier Foods

  • Music, particularly wind instruments

  • Art, particularly charcoal sketches

  • Violent Crimes that Involve Magic

Dislikes:
  • Cowards

  • Complete and idyll peace where nothing happens

  • Porridge

  • People who are unconditionally trusting

  • Laziness and Procrastination

  • Most Demons

  • Disloyalty

  • Contracts

  • Tactlessness


Biography:
The Halloran Family
The Halloran family had throughout its lineage dating back several centuries found itself blessed with the fortuitous luck of a high amount of Magestrava births. In a world where the capacity for the skilled use of magic is gifted to 10% of the popultation and even with that number is a completely random occurrence, a reputation for “producing Magestrava” can be looked at with high expectations and envy toward both their luck and to the individual skill of such progeny.

In vain of this, the Hallorans have experienced both good and bad reputations with different heads taking different approaches to their the conduct of their lineage. Perhaps due to the will of gods or merely just the ultimate equalizer of time, the occurrence of Magestrava in the past few generations has begun to dwindle and the noble household has begun to see decline. While this decline is gradua, a series of two generations without a single Magestrava and several generations with ever fewer low quality Magestrava has brought worry that the line was fast approaching the end of its fortunes. To add fuel to the fire, actions taken by the family some time ago lead to a few scandals, associating the Halloran name with that of “trouble”.

In the current generation, two surprises appeared: the fortunate birth of an apparently high quality Magestrava child, and the simultaneously unfortunate sudden occurrence of spirit problems that would come to vex even hired Ouramancers.

Early Life
Younger of two children and the first Magestrava in nearly a century, Aoife was born and raised in a warm household going through a troubled time. The duality of the family’s circumstances brought about two separate yet equal needs: that the child be sent to an academy—any academy, though hopefully one of some reputation—that she might perhaps learn the ways of powerful Magestrava in order to help boost the family standing, and that she might somehow eventually come about to help fix the second need; the family’s sudden disposition with demons and other spirits.

As neither her parents nor her older brother knew of spellcraft and spiritual activities kept suitable tutors away, there was little hope to develop Aoife’s magical abilities in the Halloran household, much less any hope to find answers to their situation where all the Ouramancers they could afford became stumped or were scared away. The somewhat farfetched hope was, that by sending Aoife to an academy of repute, she would befriend or come to know an Ouramancer of some skill. As the family had its name and Aoife was already known to have a measure of potential, getting her into some prestigious academy should have been easy and it would have presented an equally important benefit of giving their child a pleasant place to learn.

Responsibilities and the expectations of maturing were thrust on Aoife earlier than most; to some this may be a source of bitterness or resentment, but Aoife instead would later look upon these times fondly and found herself enjoying her earliest years. The concerns of the adults—these always slightly depreciated from their true brevity—were always softly made known to the growing Aoife. The concerns helped instill within her a sense of familial duty and overall loyalty wherein she was instructed by her father to prioritize spellcraft and practical knowledge over any other budding interests. At the same time, many of the world’s wisdoms were revealed to her at an earlier age than many, and Aoife found herself taking an active interest in what she was being taught and told, and any questions she had about any topic were always given with honesty and bluntness. To her, the sometimes gritty realities of the world weren’t traumatizing or mind-bending, but were instead like the kindly fairytales that other kids were taught. To the very-young girl, her family’s problems were like the promise of adventure, and the goal of having her admitted into an academy was where the first adventure would take place.

In the meantime, with her early traditional educational needs being fulfilled by her parents, Aoife managed to scratch at the itch to try and develop her magical powers through reading what books she can. The child had a thirst for knowledge, though she still had yet to develop the interest in magic crimes of her later years. Aoife pored through the illuminated manuscripts, grimoires, tomes and notes found within her family’s library, she began to teach herself a little bit about spellcraft to give herself a head start and so that she could possibly make her parents proud.

The Search for an Academy
Initially optimistic that Aoife would easily get into an Academy, the Hallorans’ hopes were brought into question when using their name garnered little—even negative—attention, and the problems with spirits only continued to grow. Despite setbacks, Aoife continued her limited self-study of spellcraft undiscouraged, while her parents continued their tutoring when possible to the best of their abilities, all while seeking an academy to take Aoife in without too many questions or concerns.

As Lismos was a country that heavily supported the development of magical abilities, it was less of a question of if Aoife would get into an academy with her potential, and more of when. Still, everyone was rather eager to get her in as soon as possible, Aoife included.

Eager to prove herself, though humble enough to know that she was only scratching at the surface of Spellcraft without a teacher, she grew somewhat impatient with her lack of fast progress and bit off more than she could chew with one spell. Invoking energies she wasn’t prepared for, and biting at too much energy at once, the much too advanced spell exploded in her face.

Typically, such an accident would have resulted in the loss of limb, life, or some other important piece of the girl. Strangely, despite initially catastrophically building energies, nothing happened. As Aoife was the only one present, the seven year old couldn’t tell just why she had come out of the accident completely unharmed, but what she could tell was that it seemed like something ate the catastrophe. With crisis seemingly averted, Aoife thought she and everyone that she could have possibly involved were in the clear.

She was wrong.

The immediate effects would not come to light until later. Fearing that her parents might lose faith in her, the seven year old kept quiet about the event. In a way, this did help teach her the importance of sticking to the foundations rather than cut corners and skip to the advanced magic. The biggest problem, however, was that she had exhausted the books that she could learn from at her level of linguistic and analytical skill. Most of the books in the library were meant for much more advanced Magestrava, and she had read all of the ones that made sense to what she knew. It was painfully obvious that she would need an academy to continue.

Unforeseen Circumstances
The Hallorans’ growing spirit problem was strange to begin with. To start, it didn’t appear that anyone in the family or involved with the family were harmed. Ouramancers were perplexed because most of the spirits involved were Cursing Spirits and Demons, yet they all seemed to temporarily retreat, then come back some short time later. This was markedly odd behavior for spirits, who weren’t normally attracted en masse to a bloodline or household without any apparent reason, and most certainly not without harming anyone.

Up to a point, the spirits did absolutely nothing, had absolutely no pattern, and did not bother anyone beyond just having their presence known.

Several weeks after Aoife’s isolated accident, the spirit’s modus operandi had changed for the worse. Even more scarily, the actions of people involved with the family changed as well. Members of Aoife’s family, being herself, her elder brother, and her mother suddenly gained a unique propensity toward meeting, being targeted by, or otherwise pestered by cursing spirits, demons, and even divine spirits—though never gods—along with a host of lower classes of magical beasts.

The spirits’ actions varied between family members. For Aoife, she had inexplicable run-ins with humanoid demons that were known in their circles and amongst Ouramancers to be very dangerous or downright murderous under specific circumstances. Yet despite their dangerous reputation, the creatures almost always tended to be completely harmless to her, and even offered to help without the contracts normally associated with them. Contrastingly, her elder brother was plagued by lesser known demons that would often try and completely fail at killing him. Strangest yet, Aoife’s mother appeared to strike fear into all forms of spiritual life without having to take any actions herself, leading to conflict between spirits trying to run away from her or ones agitated by her presence.

Finally, while no spirits seemed to bother Aoife’s father, the man appeared to change overnight. While physically the same, and with the same priorities, her father Doyle became distant and aloof. He remained with his intentions to have Aoife admitted into an academy, and diligently worked towards this, but it appeared as if the once loving husband and father lost his sense of strong emotions. Doyle became austere and impersonal, serious to a fault, as if stoicism had suddenly become his life creed. It was inexplicable and made him seem strange to all those around him, but as he did no harm and offended no one, the sudden change was taken without too much resistance, if not with slight reluctance.

Still, those with more extreme views took these events as a sign that perhaps the Halloran family was contracting themselves with maligned beings. Those around the family and associated with the family would occasionally get injured, and the tarnished name continued to lose its luster while further associating them with the word “trouble”. Worse yet, whenever a magic related crime would occur in the area surrounding the Halloran estates, it would be blamed on them or “their” demons. It was a matter of fortune that the family members didn’t get arrested, as more sensible people with power supported them, not so easily swayed into believing the Hallorans would stoop so low.

The accident from weeks back still fresh in mind, Aoife easily put two and two together and blamed herself—if only in part, as she understood that these problems had been around prior. With magical crimes being committed near her doorstep, and considering herself as a small-time criminal for her accident, Aoife was even more eager to join an academy, get her learning together, and fix her family’s problems by any means necessary.

Aledine Academy
It was fortunate, then, that Aledine Academy had a somewhat ill reputation. It was home to misfits, accepted non-Magestrava, and seemed to still manage to produce quality Magestrava. It would surely accept the Halloran girl when no other academy would consider the prospect anymore. Best of all, it’s not like it was a poorly performing academy, it merely had the same sort of reputation as the Hallorans themselves.

Initially, the family hadn’t considered Aledine due to its reputation, though they had quickly changed their minds as their reputation continued to take a nosedive, with no small thanks in part to Aoife’s father’s lessened emotional capacity. It was an academy, and perhaps the unorthodox methods that the academy employed would bear fruit? Aoife herself had begun to treasure outside of the box methods, and thought that maybe a slightly unstable Ouramancer might be able to help better than some orthodox floozy.

In short, Aoife completely accepted the suggestion to enroll into Aledine Academy, and finally got her life’s first adventure started…


Equipment:
  • Sage’s Staff — A staff only a head shorter than Aoife. It’s a special-order one-of-a-kind staff made by Aledine’s Alchemy Department with Aoife’s talents and specifications in mind. It appears to be made of iron or steel, though lifting it reveals that it is as light as wood. The staff is topped by a simple metalwork and an ornate green luminescent gem, while the base has a wing motif with a single feather attached to it. Special to the staff is its ability to be condensed into a wand size approximately the length of Aoife’s forearm. While it is able to amplify and focus projected magic to a small degree while in staff form, it is only useful for poking people in wand form. In its wand-like transport form, she keeps the item sheathed and fastened in a leather cylinder.

  • Aoife’s Grimoire — Actually full of Aoife’s notes, the Grimoire is an excessively large tome full of her scrawlings (more along the lines of neatly organized handwriting). While mundane as a magical artifact, it does have the ability to reorganize information to Aoife’s suiting. She uses it to keep notes on class work, to hold information for her intelligence network, and to maintain her list of spell chants. Unlike her staff, it is precisely as heavy as it looks, bringing some to question if she uses a weight reducing magic while it’s strapped to her waist.

  • Magnifying Glass — An ordinary magnifying glass. Remarkable technology for the age just below Danny’s glasses in terms of quality, but otherwise completely without magic of its own. As she can create magnifying lenses out of heat and water, there is some question as to the usefulness of this object, Aoife insists that it “completes her as an investigator”. Like her grimoire and staff, it is usually strapped to a waist belt of some sort.

  • "The Trickster's Crown" — The most significant item in Aoife's possession, it is a highly potent magical item that effectively jams the signals of her mind. It's actually not a crown at all, but a strangely colored feather from a mythical bird's neck. It does take some upkeep to use, so Aoife can only actively use it when she knows someone might be trying to look into her mind, that would overpower her own limited Insorcery. It also runs the risk of backfiring spectacularly and wiping a few memories from her head. The item itself is a family heirloom.

Extra Information:
  • Aoife enjoys teasing people that she finds to be too serious.

  • Aoife means “Beauty”, Halloran means “stranger from across the sea”. This is a vague reference to one of characters that inspired Aoife, Enbi Hishigami, whose name translates to Beauty and Caltrop God

  • Coincidentally, Aoife is also the name of Cú Chulainn’s wife, a powerful warrior lady who managed to overpower him in single combat.

  • The name “Halloran” implies that the family may have originated from a different land than Feledia. As the family’s history in the continent is stated to stretch back centuries, any emigration would have been quite some time ago.

  • Mostly since I couldn’t find a place to fit it in the biography section, I suppose it should be clarified that the Halloran family has tests for magic capacity when children are born. Part of it involves alchemic devices, and the other involves scrying by Sykers.

  • Though Aoife’s spells are highly functional, she considers their spartan lack of flair to be “unromantic”. Despite this, she still feels as if she’s mentally incapable of making flashy spells with unnecessary effects. Unless, of course, flashiness is the point and it’s meant to distract.

I kind of find it ironic that I pick the most overpowered class, for lack of a better term, and made one of the weakest character. I guess it doesn't help he is 11, but still.

@Impy
Ren—or at least what you've told me of Ren—is largely what inspired my character, haha. Though really, being an Ouramancer kind of sticks her on a track for "limited abilities".

@Excidius
Ahaha, uhhhh... I really didn't intend for the sheet to turn out like this at all, though thank you for your kind compliments.

@Jedly
G'night!
So, preemptive talk here, and by that I mean I'll be talking to myself and explaining some things.. I've been discussing the sheet with some friends of mine, who brought up some good points about the sheet as a whole.

First, her background appears to not talk much about her at all! This is intended, as I felt that I wrote enough about her in the personality and abilities section, where there were hints at her backstory and motivations galore. So rather than focus entirely on Aoife, I tried to have the Background focus on the Halloran family as a whole.

Funny enough, I had actually intended for Aoife to be a non-combatant that just happens to be very well informed. Her purpose was just to ask all the right questions and say all the right answers, sort of like what I've been doing here in the OOC but with more accuracy. It shifted toward a sort of "elite" when I realized that beyond Vellie and Eliza, none of the other characters were combatants. After giving her a few skills and modifying her personality, it spiraled out of control from there.

Which brings me to the point of her actual powers. When first reading through the sheet, my friend had noted that it appears that Aoife has no real weaknesses. This is partially a problem of my writing style, and partially how details have been omitted from the sheet. Aoife does have a lot of positives: She is strong intellectually and physically, well trained, and at least passably nice to everyone. At first glance, she seems to have arbitrary disabilities with team sports, and an anger issue, and she can't really write.

Thing is, her weaknesses aren't explicity stated, but there's so much in the sheet that lists what she can do that part of the implication is that there is emphasis of what she CAN'T do. There are several classes of spellcraft she's completely inept or incapable of, like Insorcery. I also tried to imply that she would annoy the hell out of some people by virtue of how much she sometimes talks about irrelevant things. Perhaps I didn't make it clear, though, that Aoife's largest crutch happens to be peace. Her mind dulls when there is too long of a lull in activities, a harmless and idyll town would drive her nuts and her brains gears would stop working. In short: she'd be very easy to take off guard if she's been inactive for too long.

Lastly, the largest implication I tried to make with Aoife is that her level is essentially what is expected of the higher tier of instructors. She's an elite upperclassman, and quite powerful in her own right, but the logic was that there would be others just like her, or others as strong or stronger than her in other fields.

Anyway, that's all I wanted to randomly blurb about.
One more thing, though... @TheHangedMan: I may require a bit of meta stuff for the sake of emulating Aoife's "intelligence network", and for some of the insider information found within her grimoire. If that's okay with you, of course.

I like how you say that Aoife is at a level that would be EXPECTED of an elite upperclassman. It helps gain perspective of just how powerful Masgistrava can be and urges us to think deeper into our imagined powers and abilities. I think often times RPers get caught up in the "I'm a Fire Mage" syndrome, as I like to call it. We label ourselves and call it a day :-p

Just by reading your CS made me ponder about Auguste. He's 32, so experienced enough, a veritable magical NERD and I summed up what he could do in three lines. In your section on "Spellcasting" you developed one of Aoife's sub-skills (or, the fundamentals of her other strengths) which is actually Auguste's AREA OF EXPERTISE. I need to get cracking on detailing what my character can do to better understand it - even myself!

Honestly, that's why I had mentioned that my character would be fond of yours when I saw your original proposal. It's quite safe to say that he was one of the inspirations for her as she was progressing through the academy, seeing as he's an alumni and a rather respected instructor.

Man... I really did skimp out on her biography, though. Things like what I just said are entirely absent, and I may revisit the section later just to add more about her actual school career.

That aside, I'm glad my sheet has provided you with a source for introspection and the like. Interesting what a few days of writing in my university's library can do, since the majority of the sheet was written while I was in class, haha.
