Adam takes this more as a compliment than anything. • [color=ffd700][b]Age:[/b] [/color]Twenty-Seven • [color=ffd700][b]Division:[/b] [/color]The England Branch • [color=ffd700][b]Class/Species:[/b] [/color]Devil Feeder • [color=ffd700][b]Abilities:[/b] [/color] There's nothing more powerful than ones own self. With his contract with a demon, Adam has been able to hone the ability over his blood. Wielding it as a weapon, he's able to shape and mold it into any possible form. Liquid in his hands, it hardens and sharpens at his will, becoming a devastating force. The more blood that Adam uses, however, the more that the man becomes unhinged. He's a ticking clock - the more damage he takes, the stronger he gets, but the less time he has left to be able to fight. Adam is able to track minimal amounts of blood, in any type of light. He can easily differentiate between Youkai blood and human blood. Able to create what he refers to as a blood pact, Adam has the ability to temporarily control another person, so long as he's touched a wound of theirs. Blood binding together, Adam can control the blood in another person's body, objectively making them his puppet. If the will of the other is strong enough, however, they can break free. The ability itself also works on a timer, only giving Adam a five minute timer on which he can hold control over someone. As it ticks down, it drains more and more of his energy, so it's used more as a last resort than anything. Having to harm himself to draw out his true power, when Adam believes he is no longer in danger, his body begins to regenerate itself. This, however, is a very slow process, and if he's bleeding too much the process won't begin. • [color=ffd700][b]Personality: [/b][/color] Always grinning, it's hard to think that Adam is anything but a kind-hearted man. His tone is light and airy, his body language loose and open. He's a kind person. A truly, truly kind person. In reality though, Adam is a fox. Deceptive to the very core, he has no real allegiances to the people he works with, and will often twist his opinions to match those around him. Always on the move to get himself in a better position than he was, he'll twist his words to make himself more likeable. Latching onto someone, Adam will do whatever they need to do to gain their attention, to swoop in and become their closest confidant, until he's obtained what he's after and ready to move on to a different target. • [color=ffd700][b]Background: [/b][/color] Adam was an ordinary child, living in the midst of the bustling city of London. A bustling city, a mega metropolis, London was the perfect place for Youkai to spread. As a sixteen year old, Adam had been lucky enough to never encounter a demon. Not lucky enough, however, to remain that way. Out with friends, being a normal teenage boy at the time, the day would fade away into a tragic night. Losing friends, watching then die, their blood spilling out onto the moonlit street - it would be enough to break any man. Adam, however, wasn't broken. He was enthralled - and the man that had saved him! Elegant, wild...old. An old man, as nimble as one half his age, it was hard to pull his eyes away. The battle was over in a flash, leaving Adam breathless and curious, so very unlike his fellow citizens. The only person remaining, the young man was lucky to have not died that day. That day started what would be the rest of his life. Following the man without a second thought, he was introduced to Augustus Mercer, a long running member of the DHA. Adam found out all that he could of the man, and would soon pester him until he became an apprentice in the way of hunting. Being introduced into the world of Devil Hunter's and Youkai, he would engross himself into it, until he was eighteen. Joining the DHA became his primary goal, and any new experiences he could have been given he took. Even when he was able to take on a contract with a Youkai, there was no hesitation. Traveling the world with the man who had saved his life, it wouldn't last forever. A particular nasty demon, a brewing storm, tore Augustus away from it. Killing the beast, saying a final good bye, Adam took the chance to live by his own code. To live and explore, to put his curiosity above everything else. He would take any contract given, travel the world to his hearts content, and ultimately end up in Japan.

At the end of the chain, instead of a clasp to hang on his clothing, there's a triangle that dangles. It's as sharp as a knife. Adam always carries a few small bandages on him. A simple silver dog tag hangs around his neck, the name Augustus Mercer.
