Xavian's athletic figure is complimented by a mocha tan skin tone. His body is supported by healthy, lean muscle, often covered in loose-fit clothing. His jet black dreadlocks are neat and often tied back to reveal a sharp, youthful face. He has light green eyes which usually rest low, either due to his inherently reserved nature or the influence of herbal narcotics. His right arm is garnished with [url=http://tattoomagz.com/wp-content/uploads/samoan-sleeve-tattoo-inklets-samoanpolynesian-sleeve-artist-steve-ma-ching-46534.jpg]tattoos[/url] marked by his tribe's elders, each segment symbolizing a chapter of his journey. An [url=https://www.askideas.com/media/64/Colored-Winged-Ankh-Tattoo-Design.jpg]ankh[/url] is tattooed on the center of his chest, and his [url=https://www.wordans.com/wvc-1258088400/wordansfiles/images/2009/8/29/22110/22110_340.jpg]family crest[/url] can be found on the side of his neck. His outfit is similar to everything seen in the picture above, excluding the dagger-like weapon, which Xavi does NOT have. [hr][h3]Personality[/h3][hr] Xavian knows no fear. For this reason, he is very calm in almost every situation. He loves to get lost in his dreamscape, detaching from reality every now and then due to the dull and drab of the city. He is vary imaginative and curious, and although his outward demeanor may seem rather cryptic and nonchalant, he is very passionate about certain things. Xavian is a rather smooth individual, able to control dialogue by simply willing it to go in the direction he desires. He is not easily broken into, but does not desire to break into others, either. He simply prefers to keep to himself, because his own mind is and always will be his best friend. He feels his conscience is separate from his physical existence, and that the two love each other very deeply. He doesn't voice this "belief", but rather acknowledges it passively from within. He may seem passive or even entrancing to others, as there is a certain lure to his tranquil nature. To the wiser of the common, it doesn't take much to peak at his intense craving for knowledge and progress. He is but an ember, idling in a late night's ocean breeze. He thirsts for a gale to come ignite the fire he aspires to be. [hr][h3]History[/h3][hr] Xavian's father, Julian Drake, was born in Montego Bay, Jamaica. From there, his journey led him to Egypt, where he wished to study the secrets of the world. Hailing from the forgotten Drake family, which once held a high prestige during the peak of the Rastafarian movement, Julian used the last of his quickly depleting funds to establish a sort of base in the African country. There, he married the woman of his dreams, who enchanted him with her royal presence. The two married, and eventually returned to Montego Bay, where Xavian was born. Growing up, Xavian was always on the move, looking for new friends, new places, new hobbies. He was also described at "being good at being good at things." He started as an athlete, but quickly surpassed most of his peers and grew tired of sports due to the lack of competition. Academics were always a chore, so he often found himself ditching class to smoke in the neighboring jungles. His family felt worried for him, as the world was advancing so rapidly, yet their hope resided in the single child who refused to do what it took to become anything. Xavian often dreamed of magic and would fantasize vivid stories of him wielding it to save damsels in distress. The reality of doing such a thing seemed so far away, that it almost depressed Xavian. He knew he wasn't going to get anywhere living his melancholy life. After graduating high school, he felt more lost than ever. That is, until his father took him into one of Montego Bay's oldest museums and gave him a deep lecture about the Drake name. Instilled with a newfound purpose, Xavian was shipped to Ominar with the last of his parents funds. Arriving only about a month prior to current events, he came with the hope of finding an education, maybe even in the arts of magic, with which he had little to no experience. What he found, instead, was political tension and corruption. Go figure. *puff* *puff* *pass* [/color] Belongings/Equipment [hider]Xavian arrived on Ominar with a single suitcase full of clothes and various necessities. The only exceptional item in his possession is a piece of his family heirloom (which is a dragon composed of various weapons and armor): [url=http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/7nAAAMXQAx9RJmIB/s-l400.jpg]A short, black tanto[/url]. He also always carries a one-strap black bag (check main picture), which contains a wooden box that resembles a jewelry box. Within this box are various corked flasks that contain different herbs. Xavian frequently rolls some of these herbs in joints or blunts for various effects. Among his favorites are ganja (marijuanna), Cloudflower (known to ease all pain and cause feelings of weightlessness), and Cleartide (enhances focus to allow for zero wasted mental energy). [/hider] Capabilities [hider][color=bc8dbf] [b]Mental[/b]: +[b]Strong-willed[/b]: Xavian's psyche is battlehardened due to constant exercise obtained through his hundreds of hours spent in a dreamscape. That, and the influence of strong herbs creates an emotionless, anxiety-ridden conscience capable of greatness. +[b]No Fear[/b]: Xavian genuinely feels no fear for anything. It's not that he masks it, it's simply that he would rather focus his efforts on surviving than worrying about anything. Nothing scares him. Nothing. +[b]Passionate Student[/b]: Xavian hated to admit it, but he loved some aspects of school. Although the workflow was too mundane for him, he felt a certain drive for expanding his knowledge and skills. Knowing more things meant being able to do more things. To Xavian, knowledge truly is power. He just hates the idea of wasting 8 hours a day chasing it, when a 30 minute read could give to him in one shot. +[b]Adept[/b]: Xavian learns things REALLY fast. -[b]Numb[/b]: Xavian is often described as emotionless, and sometimes, this makes it hard for him to empathize or be empathized with. For this reason, he has no close friends, and rather, an abundance of "acquaintances". -[b]Lost[/b]: Xavian often gets distracted and detaches from reality a lot. His lack of world knowledge when it comes to the realms and magic also sometimes frustrates him to the point of floating away to his own dream world. No point in even trying to discuss politics with him. [/color] [color=f6989d][b]Physical[/b] +[b]Athletic[/b]: Xavian is fast. Xavian is strong. Xavian can probably outperform the majority of the common humans in Ominar in any athletic field. This is due to constant exercise during his early childhood and adulthood spent in Jamaica. +[b]Drake[/b]: Xavian's family name, Drake, was one that believed in achieving the highest elevation possible within mind, body, and soul. Because of this, martial arts was routine for him and his various "cousins" (other commoners who had adopted the Drake name). He is a natural born combatant, though he doesn't pride himself on it as he isn't exceptional or anything. -[b]Rose Mist[/b]: An illness that many of the old-fashioned Jamaicans (drakes included) described as a long-stretched death sentence. "Rose Mist" is a chronic bloody cough that gradually grows harsher and harsher until eventually the victim dies of respiratory failure. At first, it was believed to be caused by the excessive smoking, but now, it seems to be more related to defects in the islanders' anima. [/color] [color=7bcdc8][b]Magical/Technological[/b] +[b]Drake[/b]: Anyone with a keen sense for magic can detect a very strong anima within Xavian, untapped, and ever-expanding. His continued physical and mental growth have been mirrored on the spiritual side, and his father believes his anima to be much stronger than his very own. However... -[b]Rose Mist[/b]: His Anima seems to be "choked", and he is unable to utilize his ostium for whatever reason. This causes him great pain when he has a bout of coughing, as he can feel his immense magical energy trying to burst into the world before him. He hopes he can find some sort of solution to his problem in Ominar. Note that a plus side to this is that others cannot use or damage his Vis either, as it is sealed off within him.
