A work in progress, still missing biography and his mentor, although I intend for the latter to be relatively short and simple, sorta shrouded in uncertainty. [hider=Allen Strauss] [color=6ecff6][b]Name:[/b][/color]Allen Strauss [color=6ecff6] [b]Age:[/b][/color] 21 years old [color=6ecff6][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Male [color=6ecff6][b]Appearance:[/b][/color] [img]http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh115/chimamire-no-shinobi/misc/bluehairedmanandkitsune.jpg[/img] A tall and handsome gentleman, Allen stands a bit above 6 feet and weighs around 175 pounds. His silver-colored hair is surely the most striking trait of his self, a proof of an unusual heritage. No matter how hot it is, Allen never seems to show much skin, because underneath shows a lot of his failure experiments: burn marks and scars on his body and arms. [color=6ecff6][b]Year:[/b][/color] 14th year [color=6ecff6][b]Rank:[/b][/color] Journeyman [color=6ecff6][b]Room No.:[/b][/color] 33 [color=6ecff6][b]Personality:[/b][/color] A strong and kind soul, Allen is driven by compassion mixed with knowledge. He lives to learn about magic and takes pride in helping others understand it as well. He is in overall a good person, although he may seem distant and a loner due to his being so often busy with experimenting with his magic. However, when approached, he beams with happiness and never misses a chance to speak with others. Facing him for the first time, people might be a bit intimidated by just how confident he appears to be, and how knowledgeable he is. But once someone get to know his well, they will know that while he is indeed radiating confidence in himself, he strives to help everyone and make them in turn confident about their abilities. [color=6ecff6][b]Magic Discipline:[/b][/color] Elemental Magic Unlike most magic-user, Allen poured all of his intellect and training into learning all the aspects of Elemental Magic. While he does not hold mastery over a single element, like how Pyromancers or Hydromancers would control fire and water respectively, the young prodigy can use a vast repertoire of spells to compensate for various situations, making his a most versatile caster. At this point in his life, Allen has the control over his spells much like an advanced Novice. As a matter of fact, he is nearly as skillful as a Journeyman with every element of his magic. While his magic does seem uncontrolled and rough on the edges, it is mostly because of his vast understanding of magic and his ability to use all the aspects of Elemental Magic he is being considered near Master rank. Most of his teachers tell him that should he attain Journeyman control over all of his spells, he would be granted Mastership. While most would consider about studying more about a single element and making it stronger, Allen goes further into versatility and is currently learning how to merge elements together. For now, he has absolutely no control over fusing elements together, and as such his attempts to do so have proven to be very chaotic, dangerous even. But his attempts have proven to get better, and is another reason the masters consider the young man near graduate. [color=6ecff6][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] Several spell tomes, most of which he has written himself, containing knowledge about each element of Elemental Magic, theorems about the existence of Elemental Magic, and fundamentals on magic. [color=6ecff6][b]Biography:[/b][/color] [color=6ecff6][b]Master:[/b][/color] [color=6ecff6][b]If[/b] Allen [b]was forced to sacrifice something important in order to move forward, it would be:[/b][/color] His love for humanity. With the current goal he has set in life is the pursue of being the greatest Magi in the world, then he would be ready to cast away his humanity, his love for others and hope in humankind in order to reach his dreams. [color=6ecff6][b]If[/b] Allen [b]was offered to have a single wish fulfilled, it would be:[/b][/color] To be one with magic. Simply put, he wants to understand magic at its fullest and be able to use any kind of magic. In the end, he has the ambitious dream of becoming a being of ultimate magic. [/hider]
