Hi-diddly-i, just wondering if this is still open for folks to join up? I've put a character sheet down below but if you're full up then no worries! [hider=Ed] "Before you ask, no, I can't get you his autograph." Name: Edmier Silverbirch Race: Half-elf (Human) Gender: Male Appearance: Edmier's appearance is largely what one would expect of a teenage boy, he is around 5'6 with a slim frame and softly defined facial features punctuated by intense blue eyes. His hair is odd, an often unkempt mix of silver and black, telling of his mixed heritage, it often covers the majority of his pointed ears but the tips usually poke out and are visible. He is prone to wearing dark coats, jackets and jeans, even in summer time and is never seen without a pair of goggles handy.

He is also able to create thin focused streams of air to cut at things like an invisible knife, though this is something he has yet to refine and develop precision with. The rest of his techniques are rather simple manipulations of other magical areas which he hopes to improve at the academy. Abilities: Dramatic hair whip, dramatic stare, dramatic glare, above average hearing. Skills: Climbing and running are two things the half-elf enjoys and is good at, often having combined the two with his magic to develop his owns style of parkour. Aside from this, he has some level of competency with baking having learnt more than a few recipes from his mother. Edmier is also rather good at disguising his emotions through his facial expressions, able to play it cool with a melancholic poker face should it be needed, in fact overreacting with a melancholic approach is something he does quite frequently. Bio: Edmier's story begins with his parents, more specifically his father, Gregory Silverbirch being one of the more well known and regarded city elf actors always had a troubled relationship with the rest of his race, even before the war. In the aftermath of the devastation, capitalising on the mysterious appeal his status as an elf held, he was able to quickly build up a reputation as an advocate of integration and union between Humans and Elves as well as a competent performer. He entered a highly publicised relationship with a Human woman from Canada, Cassandra Lee, which was still fairly new at that point, his popularity only rose as the pair announced they would be having a child. For a time, Gregory managed to land himself a rather cushy and well off position as part of the Hollywood elite before the novelty wore off and he slid down to being the B-list actor he is known as today, in part due to Cassandra wishing that their relationship with the media be drastically reduced following the birth of Edmier and the passing of time giving rise to new stories and celebrities. His time as a baby couldn't be kept out of the media spotlight but gradually his parents were able to better seclude and isolate him from the attention, his time growing up was largely spent moving around with Cassandra and her family in Canada to avoid the press and attending school there. While Gregory supported and loved his son dearly, most of his side of the family were traditionalist Elvish folk who strongly condemned his career and choice of partner, few would even meet young Edmier let alone visit frequently and the pressure of his job along with efforts to reconcile and encourage his kin to adapt to the Human world meant he spent long periods away. As a young boy, Edmier took an interest in magic after being taught about father's life before acting, while Gregory was by no means a competent mana user he at least had a few party tricks that he recalled from his own youth. Eventually the question was raised about where he would go on to study and his mother and father agreed to let Edmier decide between furthering his magical interest or remaining in the Canadian school system, for a young man facing a decision between maths and magic there was only one conceivable answer and so his application went off to Arkangrad and he eagerly awaited a response.
