[b]Race:[/b] Horned human? ([i]he doesn't know.[/i])
[b]Sex:[/b] Male
[b]Appearance:[/b] As image. In his late teens. 
[b]Backstory:[/b] 
Abandoned on a doorstep as a baby, Ryder does not know much of his true heritage. He has had an affinity for magic and monsters for as long as he can remember. He is not sure if his horns are part of his biology or simply a side effect of his magic. Either way they have always caused him to be treated different. Of all the races he could be he is neither one nor the other. Despite his adopted parents trying their best to look after an unexpected child, the world remained cruel to Ryder.
Motivation? Well that's easy. He has a deep seeded desire to obtain knowledge and will do what ever it takes, use what ever he can, step over who ever he has to, to find and uncover the secrets of magic. 
[b]Personality:[/b] Quiet, calculative, serious, short tempered, arrogant and selfish.
[b]Skills:[/b] While physically capable, he is nothing extraordinary. He fights with calculated technique and every deceptive advantage possible. Knowledge is power. He has a good grasp off written history and knows many languages.
[b]Abilities:[/b] 
Lvl 2[list][*][/list]
Lvl 1[list][*][u]Beasts within[/u][i](spell)[/i]
[indent][sub]Ryder believes that everyone has a darkness within them and this spell brings it out, making a monster out of a man. It works on creatures too. Bolstering their physical abilities to their peak while diminishing their ability to reason and think. [/sub][/indent]
[*][u]Commune with the wild[/u][i](ability)[/i]
[indent][sub]As in the name, this ability allows Ryder to understand and give simple directions to a wild animals on the level as though it were a pet. At this point it's just a basic primal understanding of one another.[/sub][/indent]
[*][u]Copy cat[/u][i](spell)[/i]
[indent][sub] By touching, being struck by, or generally becoming familiar with a creatures unique physicality/ability Ryder can replicate it to a degree. This is a high drain on his mana as he is forcing his body to do or be something different. [/sub][/indent]
[*][u]Efficient healer[/u] (passive)
[indent][sub] Never look a gift horse in the mouth. Ryder doesn't know why but his blood heals up all small scrapes and bruises pretty darn quickly. He has also learnt it can help heal others too.[/sub][/indent]
[*][u]Summon Familiar:[/u][i](spell)[/i][indent][sub]By far his most favourite and used spell. It kept him company when no one else would. To create a small creature out of nothingness and share a unique and powerful connection with it.[/sub][/indent]
[/list][b]Inventory:[/b] Growing up in a life of poverty, Ryder has never really had much except for his magic and a thirst for knowledge. Right now he is carrying around nothing more than his simple clothes, a mostly empty coin pouch and an old rusted pocket knife that was used to pin a letter to the door he was left at.
