	Selective Visibility -- Barnaby can appear to anyone, to select individuals or to no one at all, being rendered invisible.

	Matter manipulation -- A ghostly trait that allows him to manipulate objects without physical interaction which can be used in a variety of ways. Akin to telekinesis.

	Astral relocation -- Having no physical form, Barnaby is not limited to physical travel and can, in fact, traverse distances through will, though he personally prefers a good walk.  This acts similarly to teleportation.

	Possession -- Barnaby, with great effort, can temporarily possess the bodies of the weak willed

Naturally, Barnaby's ghostly visage reveals his fatal wound.  However, with effort, he can change his form to hide this defect and look relatively normal, all things considered.
[*][b][u]Voice:[/u][/b] 
Barnaby's voice is gruff with hints of an English accent, though the company he kept at sea was a melting pot and his adoptive accent has become hard to place. 
[*][b][u]Scent/Aura:[/u][/b]
When Barnaby is in the vicinity, the area around him drops in temperature as he absorbs the energies to manifest himself.  The more power he uses, the colder and more widespread it gets.
[*][u][b]Personal Style:[/b][/u] 
Barnaby died in his seafarer's attire and is forever linked to it.  A black coat with dark pants and black boots.

[color=a3a3a3][b]Personality:[/b][/color]
	During his life, Barnaby was very much a natural born leader.  He was strong, confident, strategic and, above all, mischievous.   Since his death, though, his demeanor has grown quite different.

	Having gone stark raving mad in the years after his death, Barnaby's attitude can change at the drop of a hat.  He can be jovial and nice one minute, intense and murderous the next.  Typically he remains a loner, seeing the rest of the world as pawns of temporary entertainment, but secretly he would love companionship.

[color=a3a3a3]Backstory:[/color][/b]
	Born in 1710, Barnaby lived the life of a street rat before being introduced to the wonders of the sea.  Stealing a man's billfold might feed you for a night.  Stealing a company's precious cargo in the middle of the ocean might feed you for months.  Taken under the wing of an older pirate known by most as Draven, Barnaby learned everything he could about smuggling goods, stealing, fencing (not swordplay, moving stolen goods), and even naval combat.  Once Barnaby put in some time and earned his stripes among the crew, Draven then revealed that he was no longer just a man but a vampire.  Barnaby, trusting Draven already, took the news well and remained with the crew and their devilish captain.

	As the years went on, it wasn't long before he found a woman in a small town who he took a shine to.  Rose Everly, a feminine form of perfection with porcelain skin and long dark hair, caught his eye and the two fell in love.  He even went so far as to introduce her to his mentor but felt some unease in the way Draven looked at her.  It didn't matter, though.  Barnaby knew that to have a life with Rose meant he would have to drop anchor leave the pirate life behind.  He decided to go on one last big outing that would bear fruit valuable enough to ensure that he and Rose could live in comfort for the rest of their days.

	After robbing a ship that was transporting gold, Barnaby revealed to Draven that he was going to take his share and leave it all behind.  Furious, Draven pointed his gun to Barnaby's head and angrily reminded him all that the vampire had imparted upon him.  Clothes, riches, a trade, a home, and now he was going to throw it all away for some pretty faced woman.  Barnaby held his ground and said that only death would stop him and so Draven delivered upon that threat and pulled the trigger.  As Barnaby life began seeping out of his body, Draven sneered over him.  "If she's good enough to die for, perhaps I should have a taste," he sneered.  Soon, everything went black.

	When Barnaby opened his eyes once more, the world had changed... [i]he[/i] had changed.  He was under water next to a decaying body... his decaying body at the bottom of the sea.  He panicked and cried out, wishing only to be back in Serpents Snag to find his beloved or his killer.  Suddenly he found himself there in the middle of Shanty Town and over the years he continued his hunt to find the vampire that did him in or the woman whom he lost.
