Series of origin: Skulduggery Pleasant - Book Series

Personality: Skulduggery is something of a dapper gentleman. He has a polite, old-fashioned way of speaking and a surprising velvety-smooth voice. The Skeleton Detective, just like his nickname implies, is very enthusiastic about detecting should the need ever arise.  He is also a flamboyant egoist, vocally exalting, complimenting himself, and showing off his magical abilities. Oh, and he’s a very clever strategist, being able to come up with plans on the fly. Whether or not they always work out, well... we will see about that.

Abilities: Skulduggery is a sorcerer. More specifically, an Elemental. He can utilize magic pertaining to the elements  such as water, fire, air, and earth. This magic can be used in combat both offensively and defensively but can also prove to be effective outside of combat as well. Air is his strongest and Earth is his weakest. With air, he can perform all kinds of maneuvers and attacks. Such as pushing himself from the ground to boost himself to a high place, push himself forward or backward to move more quickly or dodge an attack, or he could even use it as a sort of blast to push/pull other people and/or things away from himself. Fire and Water are pretty simple in that he can create and throw balls made of fire/water or shoot out a constant stream from either of his hands. He can also use them for other means like using fire as a light source in dark areas or just show off by walking on water. Earth, he can only use defensively and is ver limited in how he can use it. Right now, all he can do is conjure up protective walls of rock or cover himself completely in rock as makeshift armour.

Another type of magic Skulduggery is familiar with is Necromancy.  At one point in his time he began training in Necromancy and eventually grew to become one of the most powerful necromancers in history. With this magic he can create  weapons from shadow. Things like whips, spears, and swords. He can even cover his limbs in pure shadow to harden the strength of his punches and kicks. Despite what people might think, he cannot actually raise the dead. He can, however, draw power from death and make himself stronger. But now, he refuses to use this cursed magic unless he has absolutely no other option or he’s become Lord Vile.

Weapons and equipment: Aside from the clothes on his person, he carries a .38 Smith and Wesson revolver with him wherever he goes. You know, just in case.

Character alignment: Neutral 

Other: I’ll mainly be playing the “normal” version of Skulduggery for most of the RP but at some point/s, if I can, would like to switch to “Lord Vile” which is basically his evil second personality.
