It has a subtle rose motif on the sheath and blade. [Color=C41E3A]Power:[/color] [i]Power of Friendship:[/i] Alot of people like him for some reason. If anyone can get even the most obscure allies, it's Finn. [i]Regeneration:[/i] Well, it's not the Immortal perk, but he's still hard to kill. Not only does his mana recharge faster than most, but he can persist through almost any injury. Decapitation of the head? Not so much... [Color=C41E3A]Perks:[/color] [i]Disguise Artifact:[/i] A matching brooch to his magical boy uniform. Perfect for infiltrations, given they take no more than two hours. [i]Enhanced Transformation:[/i] Ain't nobody got time for drawn out transformation sequences! [i]Big Damn Hero:[/i] One person, one place. If either one is given a token, Finn can be aware of anything that is or will be in danger, and arrive there just in time to sort things out. [i]Masculinity:[/i] He gets to retain his manhood, lucky bastard. [i]Overcity Shift:[/i] How big even is the Overcity? Does it span across different universes?? Questions aside, he's able to head in and out of the Overcity...given he doesn't stray too far and end up in a different place entirely. [i]Flexibility:[/i] Guess those gymnastics classes payed off. [i]Hammerspace Handbag:[/i] Finn mostly uses this to store smaller, mundane weapons like handguns. [i]Ouju-Sama:[/i] He's got a butler too. His name is Laplace. [i]Snowbun:[/i] A pet Snowbun, can be summoned anywhere and anytime! [Color=C41E3A]Patron:[/color] [i]Maura Natalie (Crimson Cradle)[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Patron Benefits:[/color] [i]Cradle Supply[/i] - Got somethin' that might interest ya! Heheh! [Sub][i][b]Paradiso & Inferno[/b] - A pair of twin blades, made from the vengeful, restless spirit of a Monster King. Lightweight, sharp and agile as they are, their wielder can feel the same bloodlust the spirit once had. They gain the [b]warrior[/b] mental mutation so long as they have it equipped.[/i][/sub] [i]Connected[/i] - You know the drill. Magicoms, red halo, I don't need to say it twice. [i]Physical Prowess[/i] - Gotta balance these stats somehow. [i]Encore[/i] - Finn's been around for a long, [i]long[/i] while, ever since Maura kept him from dying. With the current situation in Penrose, he's been called back to help get things back in order. [Color=C41E3A]Patron Drawbacks:[/color] [i]Exposed[/i] - Your thoughts aren't safe anymore. [i]Mercy[/i] - Maura. Stop being a mother hen for five minutes. Please. [i]Solo Performance[/i] - He refuses to explain further, but since growing a distain for betrayals and tragedies, Finn prefers to be alone for the most part. Not that he'd complain if anyone approached him, but he won't bother people unless it's needed. [Color=C41E3A]Fighting Style:[/color] Finn tends to take his time durning combat. He likes to make the most of his abilities, from taking some hits with his Regeneration, to borrowing aspects of animals with his Beast spec. Oddly enough, he rarely uses his animals themselves. Save a flock of ravens or crows. He and Oliver tend to work on par with each other, bouncing strategies off each other to eliminate their target easily, or overwhelm them. Finn acts as offense, Oliver acts as support. If paired up with other teammates; separately or otherwise, they both switch to a more supportive role until the situation calls for them to intervene. [Color=C41E3A]Stats (Untransformed):[/color] STR: 3 AGI: 5 VIT: 3 MAG: 3 LCK: 4 [Color=C41E3A]Stats (Transformed):[/color] STR: 11 AGI: 12 VIT: 12 MAG: 13 LCK: 11 [Color=C41E3A]Personality:[/color] At first glance, Finn can come off as intimidating. A clean suit, stoic expression paired with sharp eyes belonging to nothing short of a professional. He's often blunt, but willing to hear others out. Stubborn, with a low tolerance for mindless bullshit. He's actually a pretty chill person, usually outside of work. Due to how long he's been around, Finn acts as an older brother type of friend around those he knows. His Power of Friendship ability does help with this, and he always looks for a compromise. He's also quite a curious person with a thirst for knowledge, especially when it comes to the magical world. If a topic comes up around Finn that catches his interest, you can expect him to be all ears for a while. He's also an easily excitable dork, but he wouldn't admit it outright. [Color=C41E3A]History:[/color] A researcher and investigator in his past life, Finn always had a sixth sense for the paranormal and such. He was always aware of the existance of magic, and those who possess it. However, he got too ambitious dealing with things he shouldn't have. And in the end, it costed him his life. [i]Almost[/i] costed him his life. See, Death had taken notice of him. For some reason she; who he'd soon know as Maura, felt a strange remorse for him. Neither of them knew why, but Maura felt that he didn't deserve that kind of fate. So she used some of her magic to make him into a magical boy. About a month passed as he got used to his newfound powers, when he ran into Maura again. But something seemed off. The poor woman appeared shaken by something. Once she explained what happened between her and her coven over his circumstance, Finn suggested to her about becoming a patron from what he had gathered about being a magical boy, get more manpower if her sisters decided to retaliate. Though he also told her to choose carefully, as some people could take advantage of such power, and Maura herself to some extent. It took awhile, but they did convince several people to become magical girls (and boys, of course). Maura even revived a ghost into a monster boy so they'd have an advantage against a monster attack. This would be Finn's old friend and current partner-in-crime, Oliver. Over all, life carried on as they worked. Conflicts arose; both magical and mundane, changes big and small occured, and relations were made. Though for the far latter, some relations were...not so good. As disorienting as it all was, Finn grew used to it, eventually not bothering with other people asides his teammates. Asides from Oliver, or Maura. [Color=C41E3A]Incantation:[/color] [i]"Memento Mori."[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Additional Info:[/color] - No one really knows how long Finn's been a magical boy, but assuming the remaining Witches have been around for centuries, it's estimated to be around the Victorian Era. - He used to give some of his earned coins to newer recruits under Maura, to give them some support.

He's made it to where it was chemical-proof, just in case. Looks a bit old. [color=faed27]Power:[/color] [i]Duplication:[/i] Can't be a true haunting with only one ghost! [color=faed27]Perks:[/color] [i]Dual Weapon:[/i] Oliver's rifle has a bayonet knife attached to it. Nothing that eye-catching. [i]Ally:[/i] As much as I tried to avoid this perk, looks like Finn and Oliver are stuck with each other. [i]Big Backpack:[/i] Oliver carries a satchel, with all the necessities of a usual big backpack. He also uses it to store chemistry books, for his magic. [i]Masculinity:[/i] Him? A girl?? Over his dead body! [i]Blood Magic:[/i] Somehow he can use some of his own vitality to cast spells. Overdoing it won't end well, makes him nauseous. [i]Enhanced Sustenance:[/i] Does he even need to sleep? Well regardless, he's able to persist without eating much or breathing. The latter's a bit weird, concidering his circumstances. [i]Awareness:[/i] Oliver's harder to sneak up on. Better know what you're doing before you try attacking him. [i]True Sight:[/i] Any environmental blinders that affect normal magicals don't work on him and his enhanced sight. [i]Phylactery:[/i] No one else knows, but he stays by Finn for a reason. If he dies, Oliver goes down with him. They [i]can[/i] be separate from each other, so long as they reunite once a year. Maybe it's that mental mutation keeping him from straying too far... [i]Possession:[/i] One of the hallmarks of ghosts. With a bit of willpower, Oliver can take control of another person's body, even if it's for a minute. If the person he's possessing dies, he's supposed to die too. But with the intervention of a phylactery, who knows? [i]Intangibility:[/i] Another of the hallmarks of ghosts. Oliver can phase through objects to travel or avoid attacks. Not too much though, it gets disorientating otherwise. [i]Sixth Sense:[/i] Just cause he's more alive than before, doesn't mean he can't mess with other souls stuck here! With some concentration, he can touch the other spirits, and those astral projecting. And maybe allow them to poke back. Just don't get too touchy. [color=faed27]Patron:[/color] Maura Natalie (Crimson Cradle) [color=faed27]Patron Benefits:[/color] [i]Cradle Supply[/i] - Well, Oliver doesn't have an artifact so... [sub][i][b]Lil' Slugger (Melee/Mystic)[/b] - A strange monochrome baseball bat, salvaged from an abandoned universe equally strange. It's most effective against corrupt enemies, and can even hit hard against the unliving. However over time, it'll start to attract more vicious monsters.[/i][/sub] [i]Connected[/i] - Cause normal telepathy's too easy. [i]???[/i] - ???? [i]Magical Overload[/i] - It took alot to bring him back from the dead. A whole lot. [color=faed27]Patron Drawbacks:[/color] [i]Exposed[/i] - Maura doesn't really like proding her agents for information, but that doesn't mean your thoughts are safe. [i]Mercy[/i] - Genocide is overrated. [i]???[/i] - ???? [i]Monstrous Form[/i] - Something might have gone wrong with his revival. Oliver became a revenant. [color=faed27]Fighting Style:[/color] Oliver's approach to battle is a bit more complex. With his Spirit specialization and Duplication power, he's able to provide alot of back-up for his teammates. Though complicated, his chemical specialization can be used to hinder the target, if not set them on fire. (A usual strategy Oliver uses, that he's aware of.) It's hard to sneak up on him. It's even harder to blind his vision. And of course, he can always possess them. But is it worth the risk? Finn and him tend to work on par with each other, bouncing strategies off each other to eliminate their target easily, or overwhelm them. Finn acts as offense, while Oliver acts as support. If paired up with other teammates; separately or otherwise, they both switch to a more supportive role until the situation calls for them to intervene. [color=faed27]Stats (Disguised):[/color] STR: 3 AGI: 3 VIT: 5 MAG: 3 LCK: 4 [color=faed27]Stats (Undisguised):[/color] STR: 10 AGI: 10 VIT: 12 MAG: 12 LCK: 12 [color=faed27]Personality:[/color] If Finn's the left brain, Oliver is the right. He's more upbeat and laidback than his partner, and alot more mischevious. He can be smug at times, whether it's taunting his enemies or teasing his friends, but he's usually the one to break up any fights between the latter. Oliver can get bored pretty easily, and he's willing to improvise; Much to his dismay of getting an Oddball specialization. Though as much of a little shit as he is, Oliver does know when it isn't the time to joke around. As his Mental Mutation suggests, he's especially protective of his friends, putting them first before him. He does try not to get too protective of them. It'd turn weird. [color=faed27]History:[/color] A some point in Maura's past history as a patron, the town they resided in at the time was attacked. Apparently a Monster King had been driven over the edge, and was admant on killing everyone and everything in sight. Of course Maura's chosen few were among those who decided to fend him off, but he and his cronies proved to be quite the challenge. They had to get back-up. Maura managed to get a couple of people contracted, but most went to other patrons before she could do anything. Then her first recruit, Finn Vanhorn, had an idea. He had an old friend, one Oliver Kyle, who worked with him until his sudden death few years back. (well, few years at that time.) Something Finn wanted to know is "Can a patron forge a contract with the dead?" He and Maura went to Oliver's final resting place to test that theory. They did manage to revive Oliver, but not only did it take alot out of Maura, but he became a monster boy. Not to mention he was still a ghost in a way. But in the end, the Monster King was put down. Maura had to be out of commission for awhile after to regain her strength. What they didn't realize at the time was that to keep Oliver grounded to reality, Finn was made into his Phylactery. Once they caught onto it they made sure not to let anyone else know, and the two decided to stick together, just as they did once in the past. Life went on. And in the now, it seems things have changed again. In response to the trouble brewing in Penrose, the duo were called in to help keep things in check. [s]And definetly not to help Maura get used to running an official organization.[/s] [color=faed27]Monstrous Mutations:[/color] [i]Noncorporeal:[/i] Well, he [i]is[/i] undead. [i]Sentinel:[/i] They've been hurt too much. Why can those jackasses leave scot-free while those he cares about are left scarred and broken? Why should he stand by and do nothing about it while they keep getting hurt? No. He cares too much to let this slide. He'll keep his friends safe. [i]Broken Incarnation:[/i] Of course, there had to be a drawback to his circumstance. If he ends up dead (double dead??), his reincarnation's a bit...wonky. It may take awhile to get him back completely. [i]Second Specialization:[/i] Boo. [color=faed27]Additional Info:[/color] - Nothing else to note. [color=faed27]Magical Coins:[/color] 0 Ruby, 0 Platinum, 0 Gold, 0 Silver, 0 Bronze [/hider]
