[hider=Jack] [center] [img]http://i62.tinypic.com/xljmeh.jpg[/img] [color=f26522]"Stop talking and just fight."[/color] Basic Info Name::Jack. Nickname/Alias:: Shade. Gender:: Male Age and date of birth:: 21, 12th of September Guild:: Golem's Hand, his mark his on the left side of his neck. Rank:: A class Personal Information Personality:: Jack is fighter, always has been and always will be. His urges to throw a punch or use his magic has gotten him into plenty of trouble in the past and had led him down a dark path that still puts him in a sour mood. He enjoys to find different challenges to test his skills, be they on the battlefield or simple trivial challenges such as cooking he will give it his all. He also has a habit of being rather reckless when in a fight. On many occasions he has almost lost a limb, or even his own life because his stubbornness to back out of a fight. He knows it's a dangerous habit, but he has long came to peace with the idea of losing his life within a fight. It's the best way to go for him. Past his reckless and dangerous nature he can be a very decent guy to hang around. He is a bit loud and enjoys to cause a little chaos now and then, but it's all in good fun. He is always up for a drinking contest and has a history of drinking people under the table. Jack can be a bit of an ass though and sometimes gives people a hard time when he's in a sour mood. His feelings towards his guild are somewhat neutral, he likes being there and all, but to him it's just a job really. History:: Jack grew up within his brothers traveling mercenary group. The group was small and barely made it by, but Jack and the others were able to get by alright. As Jack reached the age of 8 his brother saw it fit to finally show him how to be an active member of the group. Jack was pitted against the weakest members of the group and forced to fight to improve his skills. Day after day, night after night Jack would be beaten and drilled to meet the expectations of his brother. For the first two years it was Jacks own hell, but later on he found it to be a normal part of his life and grew to enjoy the sensation of fighting. He was able to meet his brothers expectations after he had managed to learn Shadow magic at the age of twelve and was sent out on his first job. He never wants to speak of that day again, but he will only say that was the day the rivers were crimson red. As Jack continued his life as a member of the small mercenary group he had grown to be the most valuable asset due to his strength and magical skills. From job to job Jacks own humanity began to wilt and die as his emotions towards other became dull. He was so use to hurting other he had lost most of his sympathy towards others. That is until a certain job that required his group to raid a small village for some corrupt nobles. It was a simple job, take some stuff, destroy some property and scare the people to go towards the nobles for help. They had done this before so it was just another routine job. Sadly though Jacks brother had hidden some details from him. Jack was instructed to watch their rear as they raided the job, which was odd seeing as how he was always in the fight, but he simply shrugged it off and followed the plan. Though as the raid was near its end Jack was met by a fleeing villager covered in blood and crying out bloody murder. With shock and confusion he hurried to the town and was met with a brutal scene of a massacred village. Men, women and children of all ages slaughtered within the streets as the men responsible for it all stood tall with pride in their recent work. Jack saw his brother bring a finishing blow to what seemed to be the village elder and lost himself within his rage. As he came back to his senses he was surrounded by only death. His former group laid dead at his feet while his brothers bloodied body hung limply in his stained hand that was gripped around his throat. There was no regret, no sadness, no anger, just relief. A few years have passed now and Jack has found himself within the guild of Golem's hand. He has managed to regain some of his lost emotions and is slowly beginning to rebuild himself to be a better person, but his past still and will always leave a feeling of guilt and shame for his crimes against the innocent. He can only look forward now and hope for the best in his long journey towards redemption. Magic Magic Name:: Shadow Magic. Description:: [url]http://fairytail.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Magic[/url] Known Spells:: Shadow form: The user transforms their body into a shadow, granting them the ability to move around surfaces. The user can transition in and out of this form as they please. Knuckle shadow: The user shapes their shadow into a fist to punch the opponent upwards. Multiple fists can also be created as well. Guard shadow: The user uses their shadow to create a shadow dome that protects them from incoming attacks. Shadow Orichi: The user shapes their shadow into multiple snakes to attack and bite their opponent. Shadow pull: The user creates a shadow in the shape of a giant hand that can travel over large distances to retrieve targets and bring them back to the user. The target is pulled into the shadow, and then brought back to the user. Shadow gauntlets: The user will be able to create two steel like gauntlets from their shadows. The gauntlets will greatly increase the users strength and blows. This is mostly used for offensive attacks, though they are able to defend against heavy attacks. Due to its increase in the users strength the gauntlets will drain the users magic as long as it's in use.

This sword is used in both offensive and defensive moves. The user only needs to put out a small burst of magic to keep this sword intact, but it is always recommended to watch how much magic is put into this sword. [hider=Sword] [img]http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/assets/108839/Shadow_Blade.jpg[/img] [/hider] Shadow boots: The user will create a pair of armored boots from his shadows. These boots are used to increase his speed greatly and is mostly used when the user must avoid deadly attacks or simply attack at greater speeds. Like the gauntlets the boots require a large amount of magic to be able to function and can prove to be dangerous if not enough is being sent to the boots. Some have suffered fractured legs, or even lost them thanks to one misstep.

She clearly cares for her guild and its members and seems ready to defend them at any second. I'll respect her for that, but from what I hear she's to forgiving and soft to be a fit enough guild master. That's just me though." [/color] Illedrith Adrasia [color=f26522]"Right, the red head who just loves to be the center of attention. She is rather nice, though she could lower that energy of hers, a bit much for me. Even if she is that way she is a decent fighter, we went at it a couple of times and I'll be honest when I say that I was actually starting to enjoy myself. Her love for her guild is also very clear, similar to her guilds master really. In short I respect her fighting abilities and her devotion to her guild, that's about it."[/color] Ceri [color=f26522]"Who? Oh right her, the small timid girl. I'm honestly surprise they allowed that girl into their guild. Don't get me wrong she's nice and all, but with how dangerous these jobs get I can barely see her actually pulling her own. Maybe I just haven't seen her actually try in a fight, but I think she should just be the guilds lovable mascot, or maybe a waitress at best. I have nothing against her, but she either actually needs to be strong, or just stay on the sidelines."[/color] Kyuuten Rallis [color=f26522]"Hm, not really sure what to say about this guy. He's always wearing a smile and gives off this huge vibe of optimism. I guess a bit of optimism is good, but I think he has to much. To much optimism can get you killed, trust me I know. He is also always willing to help those in trouble, even those not apart of his guild. It's a good trait, but it can also get you killed. I honestly won't be surprised if his nature gets him killed one day, though I guess I can't really judge seeing how I'd mostly jump head first into a pit of swords if it meant I'd win."[/color] Saeko [color=f26522]"Okay I'm just gonna say it, I hate that damned shield. I'm just waiting for the day when I'll be able to punch right through that bastard. Past her stupid shield she herself is a very cheerful person, sort of a hot head though. She's a decent fighter, but with her fuse it's easy to trick her." [/color] Dreadlin Nauss [color=f26522]"I swear I almost killed the bastard when I first saw him. No it's not because he's a damned giant lizard person, okay maybe a little bit of that was the reason, but because I have a little history with his kind. Won't go into detail, but I may have been hired to hunt a few of his kind down. Don't judge, money is money. Anyway the guy seems alright, but I may have my guard somewhat up around him. Fun guy to drink with as well."[/color] Pan [color=f26522]"Riiight, the old fart. I'll be honest when I say I just don't understand him. Just the way he is confuses me, how can you live so long by just being a pacifist? Maybe because he's always hiding behind his damned nature, but give me a few matches and we'll see what he can hide behind then."[/color] Cyril Parjure [color=f26522]"I'll be honest, he gives me a headache. I don't know the guy personally and I have nothing against him, but I can never see myself hanging out with him. Now I wouldn't mind seeing what he is capable of in a fight, I want to see if he's a good challenge since I've never faced him yet."[/color] Alexandria Galtemalos [color=f26522]"The Lady of War? Now that is a fun looking fight! Like that Cyril guy I haven't gone up against her yet and if I'm telling you the truth I'm sort of itching to see what she's made of. Hopefully when I do get a chance with her she'll be exactly what I'm looking for. A good challenge!"[/color] [center][img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjY2LmE4YThhOC5SMjlzWlcwbmN5QklZVzVrLjAA/more-news-from.again.png[/img][/center] Delsin Bastille [color=f26522]"The boss? Now that is a leader! No bullshit kind of guy that makes the right moves that will make sure we come out on top. Much better of a leader than Harpy Wings master." [/color] Vega Ashworth [color=f26522]"Now that is a hard bastard to put down. I swear he can be the actual Reaper if he goes all out and that only makes him a greater challenge to overcome. He's also a fun guy to hang around when chaos is being made. Though he can be an ass, but I'm honestly use to people like that and have no problem being one back."[/color] Kazue Hattori [color=f26522]"Ah yes, the ninja girl. She gets very greedy when it comes to money and always has that same blank look, but she's actually alright to hang around. She says some crazy things at times, but I sort of just find it funny mostly. I even hear she's good with kids, which to be honest [i]'shocked'[/i] me... that was bad I know."[/color] Damian Ivorn [color=f26522]"Now this guy is just strange to me. He has potential and strength to be a good fighter, but his personality is just... weird to me. I like the guy, he is honestly decent to hang around, but I just wish he'd actually go all out in a fight and show everyone what he can do. It bugs me as a natural fighter, but I can't do anything about it. Hopefully he'll live long enough to show his true potential."[/color] Seto Nakahara [color=f26522]"He's decent enough, hate it when he targets me for his next damned prank, but I've gotten use to it. Mostly. Anyway the guy doesn't seem much, but he is actually pretty strong. One of these days I want to have a sparring match to see what he has up his sleeves."[/color] Magus Lilith Astra [color=f26522]"She's a bit odd really, but past that she seems alright. Not much of a talker though. Even if she don't talk a lot I think she's a little amusing to hang around. I would also not mind learning a bit more about her magic, looks like it can be very useful for me in my future fights."[/color] [/hider]
