[hider=My Character] [b]Name:[/b] Samuel “Sam” Worthington “It’s cool, everything will be fine.” [b]Appearance:[/b] Gender: Male Age: 18 Height:5'10" Weight:180 lbs Build: Athletic Eyes: Green Hair: Black Skin Tone: Pale White Personal Style: Sam’s clothes are meant to be practical more than reflective of any given style, typically wearing a white t shirt and gray sweat pants for maximum mobility. The one thing resembling extravagance he wears would be a pair of durable athletic shoes, chosen to work well with his new magic. [b]Personality:[/b] Focused | Relaxed | Intelligent The first two traits might seem contradictory at first, but they’re really not. Sam is normally the sort of person who likes to be more laid back, but when faced with something important or interesting to him, he will put all of his efforts towards finding a solution. And relaxed does not mean stupid; Sam is quite capable of thinking his decisions through before acting on them, though that doesn’t mean he always does so. [b]History:[/b] Sam grew up in an overbearing family who had a strict path set for him. Get good grades, go to a top university, and become a top lawyer or doctor. This left little room for doing anything besides what his parents wanted, which led to him feeling very stifled. So around 6 months after his seventeenth birthday when he discovered he could somehow move the wind? That was probably the happiest day of his life. And it wasn’t even some grand event; Sam was just trying to fan himself with his hand on a hot day when he was simply far more successfully than he expected. This power, whatever it was, was something Sam could use on his own terms. He could explore and grow these abilities of his, and that is precisely what Sam decided to do, spending the next six months in a sort of secret “training” period. In the end, the result was that he could use his “wind force” ability in a variety of ways. Around Sam’s 18th birthday, he was getting ready to go the college his parents had picked for him when he got a mysterious letter. Not from some university impressed with his grades, but from some “Benefactor” who would help improve his abilities. It was a little suspicious that someone could find him this way when he was careful not to reveal his magic, but mostly Sam wanted to see how this person would help and maybe meet people with other powers as well. So instead of driving off to college, he drove to North Reading, sold his car (there was no point in doing this if his parents could just track him down), and walked to 666 Mystic Lane. [b]Equipment:[/b] -A wallet containing around $100 in cash at any given time -Cell phone -Laptop -As he was meant to go to college, Sam also brought two suitcases with him to the house with standard things like clothes, but they also contain around $15,000 hidden in different secret compartments [b]Magic:[/b] Sam’s magic is wind manipulation. Right now he is just a novice, so he only has one way to make use of it in any organized way; something he calls wind force. Basically, this creates a blast of wind that can be utilized in a variety of situations. These include, but are not limited to: -Creating a blast from the palms of his hands to push things away -Using this ability with his feet for the purposes of high-powered jumps Of course, Sam has more ambitions with his abilities than this. He can imagine a time in the future when his magic could be used to do more fantastic things like create a blade of wind or even fly, but this is what the education is for, right? The weakness to all of this is the more of his power he uses, the more “out of breath” he feels. Sam is usually fine after relaxing to restore his energy, but an extreme use of his power could lead to passing out from a lack of air. [/hider]
