I saw that you were re-making this, and I decided I would join back. ^_^ [hider=James Feryana] Name : James Feryana Nickname/Alias : James Age : 14 DOB : 28th December Gender : Male Sexuality : Heterosexual Appearance :[img=http://images.picturesdepot.com/photo/a/anime_boy_in_tux_photo-47398.jpg] Other Details : James has his guild mark on his right shoulder. He is also slightly shorter that he is in the picture, but not [i]that[/i] short. Just slightly below the average height for a fourteen year old. Personality : James is quite shy, and is quite socially awkward. He is often found alone, but he would hang out with people he knew really well. In general, James is quite a nice, kind boy, often cracking a few jokes. He often would keep an eye on people if he thought they were talking about him, as he is slightly paranoid about things. He gets upset quite easily, and it's often hard to get back in his good books if you're the one who caused it. He is too polite not to shout in anger and be mean, but he'd probably start to ignore you and 'not realize that you were there'. James has a few hobbies, one of which is reading. Other than that, he likes to be outside, but spends an equal amount of time inside. He's quite fond of admiring nature, and he often looks at the sky, probably expecting Zariana to come back. During combat, James keeps his cheerful nature, unless he gets angry, which he will start to be aggressive, rarely even to his own teammates. He would start to attack rapidly, unless he manages to calm himself, which he manages about 75% of the time. Arsenal : James keeps a sword on him. It's important to him, since it is his only memory of his sister. It is made of an unknown material, which is near indestructible. James hardly uses it, though, except he will often draw it during combat.

He was born in the woman's house, and was kept there for only a few days before he was put in a basket and dropped off at night at the doorstep of the local orphanage. He stayed there for three years, slowly getting a little bit of education from the orphanage staff. Eventually, he was picked up by a woman who looked nice. She commented on how cute James looked, and talked to the orphanage staff about him. James finally thought he was going to get a home, and get real parents, people who loved and cared for him. He was adopted by the woman, and taken to her home. Once he arrived, young James was happy, he actually had a family now. He had a sister, called Sarah, a father and a mother. His surname was officially changed to [i]Feryana[/i] and he got slowly taught how to write and talk. James was cared for, particularly by his sister. Sarah would always play with him, help him, treat him very nicely. Unfortunately, all of this changed. When James was eight, his parents started to treat him more like a slave than a son. They made him do all the ironing, washing, cleaning, even chopping wood for the fire. If he didn't do something well, he would get punished. Sarah often tried to help her younger brother, but was told not to. His parents stopped him from going to school, and instead made him do chores. His life was torture, even when his parents were at work; his father at his blacksmith, his mother a cleaner at the theater. James worked hard, trying to get back on his parents' good books, not knowing what he did wrong to have this done to him. Sarah started to go to the blacksmith with the father, so James was left all by himself almost every day. One day when James was nine, James planned on running away from home. He didn't want to stay, as he didn't want this done to him. He waited for one more week to see if things would improve, but of course, they didn't. One Saturday, at midnight, he stayed awake. Everyone in the house appeared to be sleeping, so James slowly and quietly got up, then started to swiftly but quietly move out of his bedroom. He managed to sneak all the way to the kitchen, but as soon as he walked through the kitchen door, the light came on. "Where are you going?" Whispered Sarah. She was standing in front of the door that lead outside the house. "Away." James whispered back. "Away from this torture." He had a tear in his eye. The only thing that made him hesitate was Sarah. He didn't want to leave her. She was the only person who he knew cared for him, and loved him like a brother. Sarah sighed, as she knew this was going to come sooner or later. She looked down to the ground. "I know." She said. "That is why you need this," Sarah opened one of the cabinets that their parents usually never needed to go into, and withdrew a green backpack. She handed it to James. "It has food, water, and a sword you can remember me by." She didn't mention that it had a picture of her and James together in it, as well. James slipped on the backpack, and Sarah couldn't hold it back any more. She practically leaped at James and hugged him tight, tears pouring down her eyes. "James," She whimpered quietly. "Just know that I love you, and you are the best person that I have ever known." This sentience also started to make James cry, and he replied quietly, "Sarah, I love you too. You are the best person that [i]I[/i] have ever known." Five minutes later, James was walking away, crying. Leaving them was hard for James, but he had to in order to get a better, non abusive life. He walked alone for a few days, living off of food in the backpack. He often took breaks, and relaxed for a while. He took a look at the sword that Sarah had given him, and the sheath that had came with it. He put the sheath to his left, and put the sword in it, which fitted perfectly. He continued to walk for another two days, coming off of the path and now walking through a forest. He came to a small clearing in the forest, and started to walk on what he thought was a big, bright rock shining in the sunlight. As he stood on it, he heard a small rumble. He thought that he was hungry, and that his stomach was grumbling, but the rumble came again. The 'rock' beneath him began to shake, and he fell off of it and onto the ground. Suddenly, the 'rock' raised itself, and appeared to be a dragon! James was terrified. He slowly reached for his sword as the dragon turned it's head to face him. It lowered it's head down to his face, which wasn't really that much lowering as it was only about four times the size of James. The young boy froze in fear, and the dragon raised it's head back up. "There's no need to be afraid." It said, in an unusually soothing female voice, making James put his hand back to his side, leaving the sword in it's sheath. "I am a dragon. I am called Zariana," it continued. "You look lost." James was so still at that point that it looked like he was paralyzed. He slowly opened his mouth. "I-I-" He stuttered. "I left my f-family. They abused m-me." He was already in tears at that point, and the dragon Zariana gently took him in her soft, white tail, and took him close to her face. "It's okay." She said, in her soothing voice. "I'll take care of you." James was confused at how a dragon could possibly look after a human, but nonetheless nodded. She plopped him onto her light grey coloured back, and walked through the forest to where there was a tiny cave and a small lake. Zariana began to teach him things, such as writing and drawing. For the next five years, Zariana taught James more than just writing. She began to teach him the basics of sky dragon magic, as she, herself, was a sky dragon. James managed to toughen himself over the years, and managed to do the magic that Zariana taught him. One day, however, James woke up smiling, ready for another day with the dragon. He got up, and walked out of the cave. He looked around. The sky dragon was nowhere to be seen. "Zariana?" He called. No reply. He started to walk, occasionally calling out for the dragon. She was nowhere, and James started to cry. He had been left, alone. James cried for days, walking, trying to find the dragon. She was nowhere. He lived on berries for about two weeks, trying to get, well, anywhere. "I can't believe she's gone," James would always say to himself. One day, James saw civilization once again, a town. He walked through the town, catching strange glances from everyone. He was scared, not just because this was a new town, but because he hadn't been in touch with anyone human within the last five years. He walked around, and eventually found the magic guild of Fairy Tail. He stood outside for about fifteen minutes, considering what to do. This was a place to learn magic, a place he could call home. But every home before this had vanished. Should he let another one vanish? Yes, he finally thought. He could join Fairy Tail, because he wasn't going to let this home vanish. Other : Using a healing spell takes a lot of magic energy from James, and it often tires him out a little. Use it too much, or if he has low magic energy, and he will most likely pass out. [/hider]
