That Eldemir is a spy for the Ottoman Empire like his father. Since why else is his family still in London after twenty-five years, and his father has a rather large salary given to them by the Ottomans, than what ambassadors normally get. Making some believe there is a reason for this, and that it is for covert actions. [color=D8BFD8][b]►[/b] [b]Secrets[/b][/color] Eldemir, when he was younger, had a lover in secret. A Welsh woman named Braith Hewitt and the two were madly in love. But one night as they were relaxing after a nightly affair. The pair was attacked by an unknown Enlightened, and a fight ensured. They won, but Eldemir was badly wounded, and the next thing he knew, he was in a hospital with a note from Braith about that they would meet again but after she dealt with personal matters. It was only after the fact that Eldemir realized that the attackers were Dark Embers, and when he visited where they had attacked. No bodies, no blood, it looked like nothing had happened there. Ever since Eldemir had kept this a secret, and wondered what caused the Dark Embers to attack them and what Braith was involved with.

Which takes on the properties of diamonds and he can take more of a beating, and his physical attacks hurt more to normal flesh as a result. But, he can only be in this form for a limited time, as he cannot sustain his diamond form forever. So he only uses it when needed, and while his diamond form is tough, Eldemir's diamond form is not bullet proof and he can feel pain while in this form. His secondary power is that Eldemir can generate diamonds and turn them into whatever form he desires, or just launch them at targets as projectiles. He can form diamonds as a sword or shield, or anything else. But they are only as strong as normal diamonds and can only be used while he is in diamond form.

Eldemir never set foot in the Ottoman Empire and was raised in London. Where he was treated as a foreigner by most of the people he met, and had a hard time making friends. Despite his social status and the education that his parents could afford. But his parents would encourage and make sure that he would not fall into despair. So Eldemir would grow close to his parents, and they were a happy family despite some bumps. Which the biggest bump was why Eldemir's father became the Ottomans' ambassador to the United Kingdom in the first place. A question that Eldemir only learned the truth about once he was old enough. The reason is that Eldemir's father had been tricked and ended up taking the blame for a crime he was unknowingly apart of. While he was not put into jail for this, he was essentially exiled from the Ottoman Empire, and his position as the Ottoman ambassador was permanent. While Eldemir was outraged at this news, and wished to avenge his father. Eldemir's father convinced him not to act on this and to just remember not to end up like him. During this outburst, Eldemir's power activated, and his father at first tried to help him learn his power. He was sent to St. Eustace's School for the Enlightened, and he would master his power there. In which Eldemir, after graduating from the school about two months ago, would seek employment there and would get a job among the faculty there. Which Eldemir, seeing how he felt more at home with his fellow Enlightened than in London. He is still seeking to find his place in the world. Since he is a stranger to both his homeland and his other homeland. Whether or not that place is at St. Eustace remains to be seen.

My favorite TV show is Stargate SG-1 [/INDENT][/COLOR][/cell][/row][/table][hr][/COLOR] [/hider]
