[b]Abilities:[/b] Souma is able to control a number of elemental magicks, including fire, water, earth, air, and darkness. He is sort of a jack of all trades, and a master of none when it comes to this, as he is not very good at managing these  in their raw forms. Souma makes up for this with an ability to easily summon and control elementals, which are essentially sentient energy. These elementals can take up a number of sizes and forms, though, the larger and more complex the elemental, the more taxing it is on Souma. He tends toward liking fire elementals the most, and steers clear of summoning dark elementals, as they tend to be the most taxing. Souma cannot control the forms the elementals take, he can only call them up using his own magical energy, which is basically food for the elementals, which allows him to control how large they are.

[b]Weapons:[/b] Souma doesn't like carrying weapons on him, though he does occasionally have a dagger. He trusts the rest of house Gryphes and his elementals more than he does a piece of metal.

[b]Personality:[/b] Souma is a respectful, and respectable person. He trusts everyone in House Gryphes, and treats them as close family, though he is not afraid to end someone if they turn on his trust. It's easy to say that Souma took after his father and became a very respectable leader, using the camaraderie of House Gryphes to push them forward, rather than intimidation and fear. Though, Souma is still rather young, and the stress of leading something like House Gryphes does tend to get to him. Don't be mistaken though, Souma definitely has a pretty good head on his shoulders.

[b]History:[/b] Souma has lived his entire life as a member of House Gryphes, as his father was the last Boss. For much of his early years, Souma was just a cute little kid destined to run House Gryphes. From the age of six, to the age of 18, he sparred with his father, or another member of House Gryphes every day. At some point he learned how to summon elementals, and mostly used it for fun, until he nearly burnt a forest down while out with his father. After that, he used that magic with extreme caution. On Souma's 19th birthday, his father had fallen deathly ill, which threw the entire house into a panic. After a few months of his father's sickness, though, the House seemed to be accustomed to it. The mood was somber until a full year later, when Souma's father, the Boss of House Gryphes, passed away. Souma had no other option at that point, he was the boss of House Gryphes from that moment on. Even during those sad days, Souma tried to keep everyone's morale up. After being boss of the house for 2 years, Souma finally feels at least slightly accustomed to being the boss.
