[b]Personality:[/b] Being told about the decline of his family ad nauseam when he was young from has made Jun lose all pretenses of ever caring about his pride as a mage. Lazy, pessimistic and self-centered, he tries to avoid unnecessary trouble, if he can ignore a problem or pass it through someone else he’ll gladly do it. Meaning that recent events have made him wish that the Ar-Rynesarte kid should have just do as he did and move on instead of forcing him to work. Jun hopes that the kid will give up quickly, thought he knows how stubborn noble mages can be. 

[b]Affinity:[/b] Answers
[b]Abilities: [/b]


	[b]Mental Acceleration:[/b] As the name implies, it makes his mind run at a faster rate, allowing him to think multiple trains of thought in a short time and react faster to dangerous situations. 
	
            [b]Probing:[/b] Gives him the ability to hear the surface thoughts of a person, he prefers to mental cast this spell for obvious reasons, though that renders the spell ineffective against those with mental protections. A variation on this spell can make a person say whatever they’re thinking out loud, though this one can’t be mentally cast.


	[b]Golden Truth:[/b] A curse that gradually closes the target’s throat. Answering with a lie to any statement made by the mage who cast the curse will end up increasing the speed in which their throat closes.


	[b]Familiar:[/b] Kagero: A gift from his grandfather before sending him off into London. Made to compensate for Jun’s low amounts of mana and sickly complexion, it’s designed to do the heavy lifting from him. Taking the form of a young woman with extremely long hair and black robes, she’s a very simple familiar, without any other special abilities aside from her incredible strength and the ability to blend into her master’s shadow. 

	Kagero’s stoic and very focused on her task, silently watching Jun’s movements as his shadow and only coming out if she’s called out or if she senses danger. She seems to have trouble speaking full sentences, which has made Jun wonder if his grandfather was cutting corners to ensure that he wouldn’t have to spend much mana in her and due to his lack of contact with other members of his family has been an unsolved mystery. 

 	[b]Trait:[/b] Psychometry: By touching an object with his bare hands Jun can receive memories, emotions or sensations stored in it, he has no control over what he’ll see and it can be specifics moments in its existence or a general overview of it. If a person left enough of an imprint Jun runs the risk of acquiring several of their mannerisms and personality traits for a while. Aside from that this ability is extremely exhausting both mentally and physically, so he prefers not to use it unless it’s necessary. 

[b]Skills:[/b] 
	[b]Cold Reading:[/b] By seeing a person's mannerisms, way of talking and clothing Jun can make accurate guesses of their personality and their current situation. 
	
[b]Assets:[/b] 
	[b]Magatama Necklace:[/b] A family charm, it’s supposed to serve as a form of mental protection, though he has no idea how effective it really is.  


[b]Brief Backstory:[/b] Once a renowned family in the Moon Circle, infighting amongst themselves and onmyouji i-using mages, their strange affinity and continued diminishing of their constitution, as well as the degradation of the quality and quantity of mana with each generation, meant that they would fade into irrelevance not with a bang, but with a whimper. Seeking to start anew some members decided to leave Japan and leave into other Circles. Pulling a favor with the Ar-Rynesarte family, Jun's grandfather was able to send one of his grandchildren to study in the Tower Circle, with the promise that he would work for the Circle as an interrogator when he was of age, since their affinity would be useful in pulling the truth out of suspected rogues in the mage community.
