Blessed with a body that doesn’t require strenuous exercising to maintain a toned, masculine figure, he styles his body with nice, trendy clothes to accommodate for his preppy style. Although his face holds a youthful, clear complexion that is free of acne, small scars can be seen from past fist fights with high school rivals and angry, drunken fights. With dimples that sit below his prominent cheekbones and beside his soft lips, he easily creates a nerdy-cute persona. Blake keeps his hair well-groomed and nicely styled nearly all the time, feeling awkward if he goes into public with unkempt hair. Blake has a masculine, yet boyish, charm to him, finding it easy to woo the girls, save for the struggle he has for the ladies that are taller and/or bigger in size. Though standing at 5’8” has it’s perks, whether it be fitting into the high school crowd at local parties, or not standing out when running from cops at a busted party. As an avid party-goer, and a hard-working student, Blake also sometimes bears dark circles from the lack of sleep he gets.[/indent][/indent] ɪɴᴛᴇʀᴇsᴛs [color=6AA16A]▔▔▔▔▔▔ x[/color] [indent][indent]Besides the interest that he has with biology and all-things surgical, Blake finds himself with an array of interests that categorizes him under many different friend groups. He has a love for romance novels, but never finds himself living a life in parallel to them. Blake also has an interest for partying and he's an avid drinker and can down a good amount of cheap beers. In the end, he comes back to his textbooks and his resesarch, finding his interest peaked within the medical field and it's mysteries. Influenced by his early childhood, Blake also shares the many interests that his biological parents' raised him on. Music, traveling, sightseeing, nature -- Blake is a natural when it comes to playing guitar, and his heart is pulled to spectacular views and the diversity of nature.[/indent][/indent] ᴘᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ [color=6AA16A]▔▔▔▔▔▔ x[/color] [indent][indent]Blake grew up with a brain that easily retains information, especially with subjects that he has interest in. Thus, Blake excelled in school and maintained high scores while going out to party with friends nearly every night. Being the guy to cheat from in school and the guy to down shots with, he was pretty likable by most. Although, Blake’s kind nature and befriending personality makes him gullible and naive to those that intend to use him, often leading to him with a depressed mood. Although, that mood is very short-lived from him being outgoing and optimistic in nature. Blake enjoys helping people and making others happy, mixing this enjoyment with his interest in human anatomy and medical practices. Thus, he attended undergraduate school and quickly went on into medical school, whilst partying with friends along the way. Blake has a competitive nature and seeks to be at the top, especially in fields where he is known to excel in. Due to this trait, he finds himself being a dare devil a lot of the times from trying to prove others wrong when they doubt him. [/indent][/indent] ʜɪsᴛᴏʀʏ [color=6AA16A]▔▔▔▔▔▔ x[/color] [indent][indent]How does a man such as Blake Burroughs generate such a ditsy, optimistic personality? Blake was an accident, his parents never really wanting to have children until they had their traveling fix in life, but they eventually had begun to see Blake as a blessing. Growing up, his real parents were travelers, wanderers, perhaps referred to as gypsies, creating Blake’s carefree spirit and boasting demeanor. To add to their many different titles, they were born musicians and busked for a living, save from the occasional gig that they would book to buy a nice dinner for the night. This lifestyle was enjoyable, although minimalistic. They didn’t have a lot and they survived in a driving trailer that they stationed from city to city within Scotland. Blake picked up all sorts of talents from an early age from being surrounded by a lifestyle that invited all forms of artistic, free nature. Living was easy, especially when all you know is what you have. Blake grew very close to his parents, spending nearly all his days with them and being stuck in a trailer with them all the time. His father was also a skilled hunter and taught Blake several survival skills and showed him how to use a rifle. His mother was caring and very spiritual, meditating each morning before whipping out her guitar to play tunes along the roads. It would seem as if Blake was destined to have a lifestyle similar to his parents, given that he wasn’t able to stay in one location for a long period of time. The wanderer spirits of his parents had trouble staying in one place to ensure a consistent education for Blake. Learning became difficult and stressful for Blake, especially since he really enjoyed everything about school. For several years, he would live attending different schools until summertime would hit, and they would be all over the country again. Upon reaching the age of ten years old, his close aunt Jane came into the picture. His aunt and his mother were very different, but showed many similarities in terms of their appearance. His mother being a traveling musician really contrasted his aunt’s professional, business-like persona. After many discussions, they finally came to an agreement in that the family would move back to the U.S., and that Blake would stay with his aunt to save from a sporadic lifestyle. Being welcomed into a home of success and luxury, Blake found it hard to leave his parents' side and jump into a life leading to opportunity and education. While he was a very bright child, he missed his old ways with his joyful, carefree parents. Day after day, he would eventually find comfort in his new lifestyle before picking up other hobbies to mask the bittersweet sadness that he would have from leaving his traveling home. His parents visited as much as they could, but they were consumed by their addiction to the arts and traveling. As years past, Blake would succeed in high school and acquire several friends and acquaintances that invited him to all sorts of parties. It wasn't until his early highschool years that he would begin to unravel the secret to his bloodline in a drunken, telekinetic fist fight. While many thought they were seeing things, Blake knew that he was possessing a much more bizzare ability. Incident after incident, he went to go get answers from his biological mother in which she unveiled many truths, but also many secrets with combined dangers. Blake was then told to be the successor to a bloodline of rather lightheaded, flighty witches, but his ancestry were no less talented than any of their many counterparts. It was then that he would be gifted with his grimoire that revealed and manifested a plethora of spells, rituals, and incredible magic. Studying the book was not like studying any ordinary text book. Up until now, Blake studies this grimoire in hopes to master it and become a successful warlock, much like his ancestry, and give his family name the true glory that it deserves. Though, he is curious of where their family's talisman went, since it was lost throughout the years. Now, as Blake attends medical school, he begins to create his own secrets. Call it cheating, call it whatever you like, at least the job is done. Blake brings magic to the doctor’s table, the surgeon’s table, hell, even to the kitchen table. Nowadays, Blake treats injuries primarily through magic, rather than first aid and medical doctor practice. Although his skill with medical practice is adequate, the quickness and the shortcut through magic gives him his title of ‘The Best Medical Intern’. This secret not only gives him his title, but it is hastening his progress through medical school which will save time and money in the long run as well as ensuring great career opportunities post-graduation. Aside from what could be a harmless secret of his, Blake also bears a much darker, realistic secret that really gives meaning to what it's like to be a warlock. Just starting medical school, at one of the biggest parties not too far from campus, it would seem as if there was a contest on who could get the highest high. As things were taken too far, a close friend’s girlfriend began to have a severe reaction between a mix of various drugs and potent alcohol. Afraid to get assistance from cops, Blake attempted his magic once he brought her to a quiet place with nobody around, but his own high clouded his focus and reversed the effects of a difficult spell meant to be a detoxification. The girl became poisoned and her blood ran black and thick with only seconds left to live in which was only filled with screams from a burst of pain. The door flung open as people crowded around the body in horror. Blake had to continue his life knowing blood was on his hands, blaming the drugs for the terrible incident.[/indent][/indent] sᴋɪʟʟs [color=6AA16A]▔▔▔▔▔▔ x[/color] [indent][indent]Blake excels in what he calls ‘green’ magic, a mix between a traditional witch and a green witch. Joining medical school and learning the human anatomy helps him understand which spells would be good in certain situations. Blake can get a rough analysis on the condition of a given body through touch or through auras. Blake's abilities include: [hider=Healing] [center][img]https://data.whicdn.com/images/260104404/original.gif[/img][/center] Healing by touch can only go to such an extent. While it would be incredible to heal an individual to great extents with a simple touch, difficult injuries and illnesses require other methods. Healing is an entire subdivison of magic that nearly holds it's own grimoire, which is why the Burrough's family has such a thick book of spells. Extensive healing can be done through rituals, utilizing regeants, creating concoctions, or other ways in which all require more time and focus. For decades, the Burrough's family have been trying to master their craft in hopes to uncover many world-changing abilities. On the contrary, these incredible spells come with many risks if failure were to occur. Instead of fizzles, many of these spells can turn around and create an opposite desire, reverting to extreme harm rather than extreme healing.[/hider] [hider=Herbalism] [center][img]http://gifimage.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/potion-gif-5.gif[/img][/center] While herbalism has existed for centuries throughout humanity, the Burrough's family took it to the next level. Utilizing herbs and plants has always been a building block for their magic and is used to create all sorts of spells, potions, and concoctions. From pastes to place on wounds to potions that can alter a foe in any desired way, this dandy trick has always served as a good use.[/hider] [hider=One With the Earth] [center][img]https://www.visithumboldt.com/uploads/14/07/B_Roll_1_9Sec.gif[/img][/center] All in all, green witches are always in unison with the earth and serve to protect, aid, and utilize it. Whether it be understanding animals, the way plants work, or the weather patterns, they almost serve a lawful purpose when it comes to the environment, despite their dark, sinister heritage. [/hider] While having these specialized witchcraft abilities, Blake also bears survival skills from learning from his father. He was taught several tricks and skills to help live in the wild should he ever need, but that was primarily a hobby rather than a foreseen necessity. As of recent, Blake is also generating several skills that come from his medical school, creating his brain as some sort of healing encyclopedia. Although he's still learning, he can still apply quite a bit of what he's learned.[/indent][/indent] [center][img]https://i1.wp.com/31.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lwbocmOZd31qaayj8o1_500.gif[/img][/center][/hider]
