Completed application [hider=David Thompson] [center] [img]https://i.imgur.com/e82mm8b.png[/img] [h1][color=7ea7d8]David Thompson[/color][/h1] Gender: Male Age: 19 Birthday: May 7th Sexuality: Straight (possibly something else, hasn't explored) [color=7ea7d8][u]Location[/u][/color] David lived for most of his life in Melbourne, he has recently moved into the coven house (2 years ago) [color=7ea7d8][u]Appearance[/u][/color] David is 6'1" has an athletic and somewhat buff. A typical body type for a boxer in training. Heavy Aussie accent. Fashion: David keeps it practical, shoes: sneakers, pants: boxing shorts or jeans (depending on the weather), shirt: polos mainly with button ups for special occasions, jacket: [color=7ea7d8]"When I turned 15 my dad gave me an oversized Harrington jacket. Fits me just right now. If its cold I'll put it on, don't need another one."[/color] Demeanor: David is confrontational and is a tough nut to crack both physically and emotionally. While his physical strength comes from fighting and training, his emotional 'strength' comes from never letting people in. This turns out to be a weakness more often than not. [color=7ea7d8][u]Personality[/u][/color] Since his father's alcoholism, David hasn't been one to open up to others. He felt into the wrong crowds without a present parental figure and hasn't felt a sense of family since then. He keeps himself together with confidence and a confrontational demeanor. He was and, to a degree, still is prone to fights but would never lay a finger on those he considers family. Even though he is too young to drink legally in America, he still always finds a way to produce a fake id. When it comes to magic, David is a slacker. Barely putting in the minimum effort to learn and zero chance of outside practice. He generally gives of the vibe he doesn't care much for it. When talking to others he has a great amount of confidence. However, this is a facade and doesn't reflect how he talks to people he knows well. [color=7ea7d8][u]Biography[/u][/color] Claire Howell, David's mother, was an American tourist. When she met David's dad Henry Thompson, she decided to stay for a while. She moved in to his home in Sydney and one day Chester Thompson was born. It was a nice house and a happy home. But it was only one year into the child's life that Claire had realized she had been away from the coven too long. She wanted Henry and little Chester to come with her back to America. This didn't go well. Henry had never been told about the coven before because Claire had hid it from him under the fear he would misunderstand. Her fears were true and there was a grave misunderstanding. [color=7ea7d8]"I was too young to know my mother before dad showed her out the door to go back to America. When I came of age he finally told me, that my mother was part of a satanic cult. Apparently she wanted to sacrifice me or something. He told me how lucky we were to still be here."[/color] Chester Thompson had his first name changed to David and they moved to Melbourne, Henry Thompson truly believed he was protecting his son and needed to hide him. So, from there Henry raised David as a single father and David was content with life. Until Henry begun drinking. [color=7ea7d8]"Some time when I was around 12 he started hitting the bottle hard. I didn't know it at the time, but it was a mix of doubt, regret and guilt that did him there. What was a young kid hitting his teens supposed to do with that? Except get into some mischief."[/color] David made a small name for himself on the Melbourne streets, a back alley boxer was one of the main ones among other school dropouts. That was the main part of his teen years, fending and fighting for money to keep the house afloat. [color=7ea7d8]"I was making some money, just enough to get by. That was until this one fight when I was 17 almost hitting 18. It was a proper punch up until someone decided to pull a knife. What could I do but defend myself, it was just my luck I stabbed him in a place you don't get up from." "It was to my shock later on during interrogation, I find out that hes perfectly fine as if healed by magic. And that's when my mum came in with some other women. It was an ultimatum either go over to the States with mum or wait until trail and get charged with assault as an adult. Easy choice to make, at least I might have a fighting chance to escape some cultists and it would make for a great big f***ing story. But when my mom saw me and she started tearing up, I have to say, that cleared things up for me a lot."[/color] [color=7ea7d8]"You see I love my dad. I still love him, even if he's run himself down for these later years. I know that, in his heart, all he did was to keep me safe. But finding out that for all these years he was wrong? Yeah that took some time to forgive. I think even some part in his heart knew that he was wrong. That why he started hitting the piss I reckon."[/color] [color=7ea7d8]"This all wasn't to say the coven is all sweets and roses but it isn't what he thought it was. Some of the Sisters don't look too kindly on me, I don't blame 'em. My mother left the coven for years because of my dad, then that same man takes her son away. In their eyes I think they see me as the next one from my family to screw them over, or just someone to run away again. To be honest, they might be right. But I can't forgive some of them whispering that all my dad was is a useless alcoholic and my mum was a fool for ever staying in the first place. There was something there, I'm going to prove them wrong."[/color] [color=7ea7d8]"There are some that support my mom, truth be told thats the only reason why I'm here as well. I just want to catch up with my mom, I haven't seen her since before I can remember and maybe, just maybe, I might convince her to forgive dad somewhere down the line. I know he still loves her, I just hope she might feel the same."[/color] [color=7ea7d8]"I haven't been making myself at home, my mum knows it and somehow she could pull a few favors. There are some witches my age and I'll be staying with them over the summer. I was even at that bonding ritual thing, of course I wasn't allowed to participate. I wasn't allowed to even talk to them until the next day, but I think that part might of been the lies of a witch who has it out for me. Either way, they have also said if I can prove myself here they will consider bonding me to the wellspring. I don't know what they mean by wellspring and proving myself. But they speak highly of it as if its something I care about, or at least something I should care about.[/color] [color=7ea7d8][u]Greatest Fear[/u][/color] Losing the ones he loves [color=7ea7d8][u]Magic[/u][/color] [color=7ea7d8]Strong suit: Support magic[/color] David has the uncanny magical talent for both healing and supporting others. Many spells from this school of magic, much to David's reluctance, comes naturally to him and with ease. This does not extend to uses on himself however. When it comes to using this power selfishly, he is incapable. [color=7ea7d8]Weak Suit: Just about everything else[/color] David is new to learning magic and while he doesn't have any clearly defined weaknesses he performs magic to the competence level of a 7 year old witchling. The only excepting to this is the above strong suit. [color=7ea7d8][u]Other skills[/u][/color] Boxing Not like it will matter in the world of magic, but David can hold his own in a fist fight. Intimidation David is not a weak looking bloke. He has the uncanny ability to look dangerous, even if he is easily the weakest witch in the coven for his age. [color=7ea7d8][u]Rumors[/u][/color] There is a rumor that David has a familiar, there is a bluebird that always seems to follow him. He doesn't even mention the bird if someone brings it up. But some have seen him comforting the bird when he thinks no one is looking. [color=7ea7d8]"There certainly are a few running around aye, some of the Sisters don't seem to like me. They spread quite a few things, not that I could tell you what they're saying."[/color] David knows where to get fake ids and plans to sneak of to a pub the first chance he gets. This is true.
