The question is whether or not you can pay the price."[/b][i]~[/i][/color][/h3][/center] [hider][b]Name:[/b] Nabriales Taeryn [b]Nicknames:[/b] Magical Mister Mistoffelees [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Sexuality:[/b] Homosexual [b]Alias:[/b] N/A [b]Age:[/b] 350 [b]Apparent Age:[/b] Late twenties [b]Race:[/b] Human [b]Sub-Race/Lineage or Nationality/Specialty:[/b] Precursor Descendant [b]Appearance:[/b] Nabriales stands at 5'9" and weighs 170 pounds, a mixture of lean muscle and a small amount of fat. Nabriales is particularly fond of his youthful and somewhat varied appearance - he is adorned with a cracked pair of blue horns as a result of his various alchemical tinkerings, and after the mishap that gave him the horns was resolved he elected to keep them as he enjoys the aesthetics of having horns. Through the cracks vis in varying shades of blue or purple can occasionally be seen flaring up, particularly when he brews potions - though also whenever emotions or tensions are high. Additionally, he has a marking just underneath his right eye that seems to indicate a guardian bond between himself and a Prae - though he is particularly reticent about any information regarding such, and merely states that he enjoys the way that the marking looks. Nabriales can often be found with eccentric clothing, preferring to wear loose-fitting robe-like clothing that gives him maximum fluidity and breathing room. He is known to change the colour of his clothes, or even his entire ensemble, on a whim. His clothing choice is often woefully inadequate for his chosen profession - alchemy - and his colourful drapery is often made moreso by the spills of various reagents, and patches tend to be missing - Nabriales often does not notice this, and as soon as it is pointed out will either change entirely or repair his garment magically. When channelling vis throughout his body, Nabriales' skin and horns take on various hues in a scintillating rainbow pattern. [b]Personality:[/b] Nabriales is part narcissist, part egotist, and part downright flirty - he is a man of great pleasure, and often finds it primarily in himself and his actions. Nabriales is, as most of his kind are, a prodigy in the magical arts - and this natural talent has shaped his perceptions of greatness for as long as he has been in this world. Everything always came easily to Nabriales, and he has internalised his easy successes as greatness - though he takes this far less seriously than he is like to let on. He does fundamentally believe that he is on another level, and that the majority of the people that he meets are beneath him, but does so in an endearing sort of way that leaves very little room for misinterpretation - prideful as he may be, he is well aware of his limits and is keenly perceptive of the capabilities of those around him. Nabriales is also somewhat of a hedonist, preferring to play instead of work. In order to actually get anything done, he tries to mentally categorise as many activities as play as he physically can - and this is usually accomplished by doing everything he can with his whimsical and capricious nature and simultaneously trying to include physical relations in as many of his activities as he thinks he can get away with (which is an awful lot). As a result, Nabriales is an extremely tactile individual, and prefers hands-on contact in as many instances as possible. To many, this is a nuisance initially, but due to his fairly captivating beauty and generally intoxicating demeanour many simply learn that it is the way he works and accept it for what it is - a playful manner of going about what would otherwise be uninteresting. Nabriales is a homosexual, and is fairly forward with it - even if it is not immediately obvious from sight alone, his interactions with any male that shows the slightest hint of interest very quickly confirm it. He is well-known for his habit of bedding people as often as possible, especially those that he has business dealings with, as he considers intimate relations the sign of a deal well-struck. If confronted about his behaviour, he is quick to apologise for any overstepped boundaries but will absolutely not tone down his flirtatious nature, and depending on the nature of the rejection will take it as a personal challenge to get what he wants. Due to his profession and innate alchemical skill, it is not usually out of the question that he gets precisely what he wants - a feat that amuses him to no end. In general, Nabriales is a flirty, bubbly individual that delights in his own pleasure and the pleasure of others, and will seek to be the life of any party he happens to wander into. Fortunately, he considers life to be one big party. [b]History:[/b] To be revealed IC Belongings/Equipment [hider]Stash of Crystal Vials - True to the Taeryn line, Nabriales is capable of crafting crystals from pure vis. He has created several crystals, one for each colour of the rainbow, that he has sculpted into alchemical flasks to contain the various brews he creates. Due to the intrinsically magical nature of the flasks, any potions kept inside them do not lose in potency over time and will never expire. Nabriales treasures these vials, and typically uses them only for the most potent alchemical creations that he can muster, or for very close friends/relatives. The Alkahest - Nabriales has synthesised an extremely potent solvent that he calls the Alkahest, named after the mythical universal solvent. The Alkahest is kept within a vial lined with runic magic that prevents the Alkahest from ever touching the sides and suspends the liquid in midair, preventing anything from interacting with it or vice-versa. Nabriales is capable of manipulating the liquid with his vis, which will rapidly dissolve almost any substance that it touches, excepting that which has a great deal of imbued vis. The vial of Alkahest is capable of dissolving an entire human body within 60 seconds, down to 5 seconds if the human is dead. Generic water filled vials - Nabriales has a stock room in his store (Victorious Secrets) filled with generic glass vials filled with water that each have a rune emblazoned upon them that allow him to summon them to his hands at a moment’s notice. Cellphone - Used to pick up dudes and call clients. Mostly the former.[/hider] Capabilities [hider]Mental Manipulative Sly Very Intelligent Charismatic Eloquent/Persuasive Easygoing Physical Faster than a normal human Stronger than a normal human Heightened reflexes Extreme tactical awareness Determined Fearless Magical/Technological Alchemy / Potion Making [Imprinted] Nabriales is an exceptionally gifted alchemist, in part due to his status as a Precursor Descendant and in part due to natural talent. He has studied Alchemy for an extremely long time, focusing almost entirely upon it, and as a result is able to make any common potion merely with his vis alone (along with some special potions of his own creation) - rarer and more exceptional potions still require certain rare ingredients, but he is adept at making the most of them and providing only the highest quality of product when finished. Crystals [Imprinted] Vis Crystals of various types are used as currency for the five families. Because of this, the ability to make them has been passed down through the generations. Nabriales is only able to make crystals that do not have a particular element to them, but is particularly adept at the manipulation of their shape and can create fairly large crystals when given time and energy. Vis Sight [Imprinted] This ability allows the user to see vis in the environment around them when vis is focused in the eyes. Whether it be people, animals, or even objects; if it has vis in it, they'll be able to see it with enough training. The imprinted version of this ability allows Nabriales to pick out ingredients for potion making with startling accuracy and efficiency, as well as offering him a natural insight into the nature and properties of any vis-laden object that he sees, though when not applied to alchemy this insight is quite limited. Vis Sense [Not Imprinted] The ability to sense, or feel vis in one's surroundings. Nabriales’ non-imprinted version is strong enough to allow him to sense the different races' vis, but only on a very cursory level. His Vis Sense is tuned enough to detect the vis within objects, however. Teleportation [Imprinted] Nabriales is particularly skilled at teleportation magic - he is able to teleport himself and up to two other people to any location on Medius that he has visited before or has a detailed map of and feel for the ambient vis in the location (which is largely restricted to areas he knows, such as Ominar or the compound). Nabriales’ specialty also extends to teleporting objects marked with runes, though this specifically requires preparation and can only really be used on objects that he has personally invested vis into. Elements: Fire, Light [Not Imprinted] Nabriales is capable of casting novice to intermediate level fire and light spells, as well as imbuing objects with their properties or creating minor vis constructs from those two elements. It is an art that he struggles with somewhat, and often neglects to use except to apply heat when making potions.[/hider][/hider]
