Jacob Millford [hider=Character Sheet][center]"[i]Wishes are for those who do not have the mettle to grasp that which they desire.[/i]"[/center] [b][u]Name[/u][/b]: Jacob Millford [b][u]Age[/u][/b]: 36 [b][u]Gender[/u][/b]: Male [b][u]Servant[/u][/b]: [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/78493-fate-eclipse/char#post-2509599]Assassin[/url] [b][u]Powers/Abilities[/u][/b]: The Millford family bloodline has dedicated their efforts to the study and greater understanding of the element of Wind. Their Magic Crest is the most complex collection of understanding outside of the Mages Association, which the Millford family has deeply rooted connections with. With a wide range of spells engraved into it he possess the power to wield the element in both an offensive and defensive manner. [b][u]Spells[/u][/b]: [hider=Aero Strike]These spells are as robust as they are varied. With his family’s legacy behind him, he can all but command the wind with a variety of incantations and movements. With little effort he can command the wind around him into a protective vortex to deflect attack or into a deadly gale force to hammer those that would harm him. It is difficult to be precise when controlling the wind, so using these spells tends to leave collateral damage akin to a hurricane.[/hider] [hider=Invisible Air]By forming a boundary field made of wind he can conceal himself from being seen or heard. Due to the nature of how the wind needs to move as well as how compressed it is, all that could be heard are the gusts of wind that cover him, making it not a valid type of stealth. This requires an immense amount of concentration so it is impossible for him to use other spells at the same time.[/hider] [hider=Read the Wind]The ability to enter a state of nothingness through meditation, allowing the wind to flow through and into him in order to decipher the information the wind would bring to him, such as sounds and scents from great distances.[/hider] [hider=Protection from Wind]Wound into his Magic Crest are Runes designed to negate any magical effects involving Wind that would attempt to affect him. This is done not to protect the host of the Crest, but to protect the Crest itself from the experiments that the owner would conduct.[/hider] [hider=Runes of Wind (Algiz)]Currently when he inscribes the rune upon the surface it creates a gust of wind that ruins itself. Currently he has found only two usages for this by inscribing the rune on the bottom of his shoe. When he focuses his prana into his steps it allows him to move faster and jump greater distances. If he does not focus, the gust the imprint makes is strong enough to blow away the tracks he left behind, making it harder to find him should he flee a dangerous situation. This is his area of study that he focuses on to carry on the family's Crest.[/hider] [b][u]Appearance[/u][/b]: [url=http://th09.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2010/224/2/e/Professor_by_FanOfAkatsuki.png]Apprance[/url] His families’ Magic Crest is inscribed upon his legs, starting at the ankle and stopping just below the knee. [b][u]Personality[/u][/b]: Despite his reputation of being a well learned humble sir, he possesses quite the wild side. Professionally he is curious and punctual with strong values, treating most with the respect that they might deny him. When the mood shifts and he gets laid back he turns into a feisty fearless man who knows full well that he is a cut above the rest. More often than not he will go out of his way for other people, if he thinks they deserve it. Above all he places learning above all else and has an insatiable curiosity. [b][u]Short Biography[/u][/b]: Born the first child of his parents, he was set up from birth to inherit his family's legacy and continue their efforts to expand their Magic Crest. For most of his life he never questioned his choices, believe that this was the life his parents worked so hard for him have. When he was old enough he was accepted into the Mages Association at the Clock Tower where he choose to study in Archaeology. When he entered the Association he was bright eyed and hopeful, but after four short years he understood all too well that most Magus put little effort into the pursuit of knowledge, and more stock in the pursuit of power. When he was able to he left Clock Tower for the life of an Archaeologist, traveling on the Association's dime to find remnants of the Age of Magic. After more than a decade of this he grew tired of the hypocrisy of the Association, and took his experiences and decided to put them to good use. Settling down in Ukatan he got a job at the university teaching various History courses, where he continues his families study in his personal time. [b][u]Other[/u][/b]: Holding the belief that an ill prepared Magus is a dead magus, Jacob carries around a six shot revolver, which he happens to be a good shot with. However, this revolver has been altered in a fashion to allow it to be a focus for his Magecraft. When he fires a shot while the cylinder is empty it channels his prana enhancing certain spells.[/hider] * * * * * * Caster [hider=Character Sheet] [u][b]True Name[/b][/u]: Nicolas Flamel [u][b]Class[/b][/u]: Caster [u][b]Age[/b][/u]: 88 [u][b]Gender[/b][/u]: Male [u][b]Master[/b][/u]: [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/78493-fate-eclipse/char#post-2510379]Dr. Fumio Nakahara[/url] [u][b]Noble Phantasm[/b][/u]: [i]Philosopher's Stone[/i] (Thaumaturgy): [hider=Anti-Unit] The great stone of legend that can turn worthless metals into gold. This is only a fraction of its abilities. It is a somewhat sentient tool that can bend matter and energies around it, shaping them into different forms and compositions. It can be used to alter materials on an atomic level, making that which was altered nigh-impenetrable or crumble to dust. Cosmology can also be altered by the Stone, changing any of the elements into another.[/hider] [hider=Anti-Unit (Self)]- The holder is blessed with accelerated healing for as long as they hold it. The more sever the wound the longer the healing will take, but it can cut months of healing down to a few hours. This power is derived from the condensation the stone excretes, which is the fabled Elixir of Life.[/hider] [hider=Anti-Army] With all the materials present, the wielder can change the battle field into a way that benefits himself as well as use it to fight his opponent. The ground can shift, rise and fall. Rocks and chunks of earth can be tossed without so much as touching them. Plants can meld together on a cellular level to form vines and brush to tangle a victim.[/hider] [hider=Skills][u][b]Class Skills[/b][/u] Territory Creation B Item Construction A [u][b]Personal Skills[/b][/u] Independent Action A+ Collector C Alchemy EX Magecraft D Numerology C[/hider] [u][b]Appearance[/b][/u]: [url=http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130617022937/harrypotter/images/a/ae/Alchemycard.jpg]Link[/url] (This is the only picture I could find to be appropriate at the time, will keep looking.) A stocky old man of about five feet tall, all the hairs on his face and head are silvery grey. He is deep with wrinkles but his skin does not sag, making him look twenty years younger than he actually is/would be. He changes his attire frequently as his appetites are finicky. [u][b]Personality[/b][/u]: Nicolas was often dismissed by his peers and fellow alchemists due to his childish nature. He always believed that he would have more time than was needed to accomplish his goals, so at any chance he had he took to jocularity and relaxation. When it comes to the needs of others he is sympathetic and helpful, but knows full well that in order for him to succeed, others might have to fail. However more often than not he will try to help others find a different way to accomplish their goals, one that does not interfere with his path. [u][b]Short Biography[/b][/u]: Many accounts of who Nicolas Flamel really was are conflicted. Here is the truth. He was born in Paris France, where he lived and worked as a scribe and only dabbled in science and alchemy until he bought a rather curious book titled "The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage". It took him several years to decode the twenty one pages in it, but for his hard work he was rewarded with knowledge far exceeding anyone he had worked with before. The book taught him how to create the Philosopher's Stone, a process that he vowed never to tell anyone and even went so far as to destroy the book, burning it and scattering the ashes over several countries. From there on forward he lived a luxurious life with his wife. They lived for hundreds of years, traveling the world and seeking out new flavors of life and the people of the world. One day when they decided it was time they used the stone to end their lives, leaving behind no trace of themselves, save for some wild stories and sightings in the seventeenth century. [u][b]Other[/b][/u]: Even though he is of the Caster class, Nicolas Flamel is a failure as a Magus. With no family history or training, he never built a Mage Crest or the wealth of knowledge that most think necessary. His small pool of Prana in life became expanded in death, though only slightly bigger. The Philosopher's Stone allows him to use what little Prana he has to accomplish great tasks. Without the stone he is little more than an 88 year old man.[/hider]
