So before I post my CS, just want to say that after a quick skim of the CS's (mainly just abilities) everything looks fine. I'll get into further details about what edits to make for everyone at a later time. Name: Vaan Feral Gender: Male Age: 60 Species: Human sage Appearance: Vaan is a very old man, and his face shows this. Though he stands at a staggering 6'5", and has a slightly muscled body to accompany his tall stature, his face is old and wrinkled, and his hair is a pure white color. He keeps his hair fairly short, and tends to dress up very professionally, as he has to keep up the appearance of being the town's mayor. Abilities: Vaan is a sage. Being a sage, he draws upon the energy of chi, both within himself, and within the living things that surround him as well. He transmutes this energy into astounding physical feats. He can move as fast as a cheetah, throws punches that would match a rhino's charge, and jump as high as a small bird could fly, and this is using solely the chi from within himself. As he pulls more chi from more surrounding beings, his strength multiplies to the point where he could break through buildings with a flick of his fingers. Weaknesses: He's still human, so if caught off guard and attacked while he isn't using chi, he can be killed like any regular human, or if he's overpowered in a fight he could be killed just as easily. He's also dealing with the limits that come with old age. He has arthritis, so it hurts to fight for long periods of time (anything longer than a minute hurts him at this point). He also has to deal with the risk of damaging his body beyond repair, as even with his chi technique, some injuries could be permanent. Personality: He has a strong sense of justice about him, and he cares for the inhabitants of the town deeply. His goal as mayor is to keep the town safe for as long as physically possible for him, as his years left on this world are quickly running out for him. Background: The outpost system is a fairly new system that has only come about in the last 40 years. Vaan was a young sage's apprentice at the time of this outpost's creation, and he has been working in it for the majority of his life. From building all of the structures in the town, to working on the political aspects of it, he's had a hand in this town for it's entire history. He took over as Mayor at the age of 30 after his master had died. There was a raid from the "hunters" as they were dubbed by the supernaturals, an organization from the dark ages created for the purpose of eradicating all supernatural beings. Long story short, there was a big fight that left Feral in charge of everything as the town's mayor, per his master's dying wish and his own desire to see the town he nurtured grow into a haven for all supernatural creatures. Job: He's the town mayor. He runs the town in name only, leaving the running of the town to his subordinates. Infact he is truly the guardian of this town, ready to fight off any would be invaders at a moment's notice, even at the cost of his own life. (this isn't my main character, just a character I'm using so we have a "boss/leader" type to handle stuff for now) Name: Cyr Feral Gender: Male Age: 21 Species: Human/Possessed Appearance: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/gsweird11/pics/Anime6.jpg[/IMG] Abilities: So when we think of someone being possessed, we think of something like the exorcist right? Well this is wrong in this scenario. Cyr is indeed possessed by a spirit, but not a demon. This spirit is a spirit of light that made a deal with Cyr. In exchange for Cyr being able to call on the spirits power, the spirit lives in Cyr's body. This allows the spirit to experience things without having to completely possess someone. He can taste, feel, and such, but instead of completely controlling Cyr, he is instead merely a presence within him, although the spirit does chip in his opinions every so often. The reason for this is the spirit is a kind one, and complete possession requires a lot more energy instead of merely inhabiting a body. The spirit made the deal cause he wanted to experience the values of earthly pleasures. So, now his actual abilities. having the control of "light," Cyr can do two major things: 1. Laser: He can focus the light into blasts of laser, or even steady beams that he can wield like lightsabers (ps, he has referred to himself as a jedi several times). 2. He can manipulate what people see to en extent. Since everything we see is light being reflected, he can of course manipulate light and change what we see. However, he can only change certain things. Usually, the extent of this ability is him manipulating the brightness of lights to either blind people, or make them lose track of him in dark spaces. So as of now, Cyr has the control of a light spirit within his body, but this falls into the field of being a "medium" allowing him to channel the power of spirits. This could mean he could control other spirits for short amounts of time since he has a full time spirit living in him that he has to manage as well. Weaknesses: So, he himself is still human, and what can kill a human can kill him as well. His abilities really just make it harder to kill him. Personality: Cyr, as opposed to his serious uncle, is instead a calm and relax individual. He takes things lightly a majority of the time, and tends to think of rational ways to deal with situations when he can, since it's easier for him to avoid fights. He is however, not submissive and will take on a serious, aggressive attitude when he realizes that a calm and nice demeanor is not the option that will end the conflict. Just as his uncle does, he values the lives of all the people that live in the outpost, and is willing to do has to be done to protect them. Background: Cyr was born in outpost 17 around a decade after the raid had occurred, and was raised with the intention of being ready to fight if the hunters were to ever attack. One day, they were attacked again, but by a much smaller force of regular humans that had found out what they were. While there wasn't much damage, his father was killed in the fight, and Cyr was only 10 when this happened. His mother later decided to leave the outpost after what happened when Cyr was 16, but instead of going with her to travel the world, he decided to stay back and live in the Outpost, and his mother respected his decision and left him there. After that, his uncle raised him and tried to teach him to become a sage, but Cyr knew he wanted to find his own way. He Vastiel, a spirit of light, who had longed to become a physical entity in the world. with some coercion, Cyr managed to convince Vastiel to "possess" in return for letting Cyr use the powers of light. After this, Cyr decided to become the bar tender for the town at the age of 18, and has been working as a bartender for the past 3 years since then. Job: As I said in his background, Cyr is the bartender at the town's local bar.
