Avanhelsing — Roleplayer Guild

Player Name: 
Avanhelsing

Primary Character: 
Kid Solomon 

Secret Identity: 
Liam McNeil 

Status: 
Titans (Eventually the JLU)

Age: 
17 years old

City: 
He is based in Gotham for now. 

Day Job: 
Running the streets of Gotham trying to do good is his night job. He's currently a student at Gotham Academy and occasionally looking in on the Gamily business of importing and exporting. 

Powers: 
Magic: He needs to use spells to cast his magic but his magics are powerful. Due to his half homo-magi blood, he is quite the powerful sorcerer or some day he will be. Today he is just a decent sorcerer. He usually uses his spell book as a focus but in a bind, he can use his blood as a focus. His spells are varied so long as he can pay the required cost. Usually, animal blood will do.
The Seal of Solomon (Summoning): Liam doesn't see calling outsider beings or demons to help him to do as a bad thing. A creature that can help him is a good thing. The Seal of Solomon allows him to do this. His Magic summons the creature from whichever place it came from and the Seal binds the creature to his service. Liam can only keep on creature at a time for now.
Blood Magic : He is skilled at the use of blood magic. He can do more "dark" magics with his blood spells. Using this magic, he can place curses or weaken his enemies if he has time to set up.

Weaknesses: 
"All Magic Comes with  a Price, Dearie": His spells are powerful but they require an offering of something equal in value. If he wants to raise someone from the dead, he must sacrifice someone else's life for the person. The stronger the spell, the more costly the price. If the price is too high, the spell can take a bit of his life. 

"One Cannot Rush True Magic": Liam needs time to set up his spells and if his magic is interrupted then it does not work or worse. The spell might backfire or cause something to happen. With more practice he could control this but for now it is a large issue. 

Skills: 
Liam can read and write in: Latin, Greek, Aramaic, and Hebrew. Despite his magic, he is quite good with his fists. Not going to punch out a powerful person but he would be good against regular thugs. His tutors thought it important that he can fight without his magic. 

Appearance: 

Liam will eventually need a better outfit but for now Spandex is not his thing. The Mask manages to hide his appearance unless he takes it off willingly.Even people who know him intimately cannot see through the illusion even if they see his tattoos. 

BRIEF Bio: 

The Wind Spirits sings the song around the ruins of an old Mansion in Gotham
Our wisdom flows so sweet. Taste and see.

TRANSMIT - initiate Gotham signal - RECEIVE - initiate the Solomon frequency - THINK OF THE CHILD - initiate the sob cadence - WITNESS - Kid Solomon.

Do you see the burnt mansion ruins over looking Gotham City, Sweetling? We do. We see everything in Gotham. Do you see the impossible claw marks on the door? Or can you hear the cries of anguish from the empty building? We can hear them crying and we know what happened. Would you like to know? We shall tell you the story. 

Initiate the History Cadence 

Liam Connor McNeil was born on the Eve of All Hallows (Halloween) and from that day forth he was far than normal. The McNeil's had been one of the prominent old families in  Gotham and had always seemed to be oddly successful. When ever it seemed that their business was about to fail, they seemed to always bounce back and oddly a servant or two would disappear. It was was so ironic that they would lose a servant and get what they wanted? It is funny how things work out for the morally wrong?

This cycle of success and failure  continued for years until eventually, one of his ancestors decided enough was enough. The family would no long sacrifice innocent blood for their own gain. The family was no longer richer than God and all His Angels but they were still wealthy enough to be considered the Upper Crust of the Gotham Elite. The gossip had always been that the McNeil's were an odd lot who never quite fit in. Their Import Export business was still profitable and they did a good deal of business with the Waynes and that made them rich. 

Liam was born during a full moon an Halloween and that was seen as a good sign in his family's eyes. His parents were both magical and it appeared that Liam had more power than both of them from birth. Someday, he would lead the family and everything would be fine. From a young age, he was taught the lessons of magic and how to use it. These lessons were important to the young man. Then  things got bad for the young man quickly. 

 Initiate the Trauma Signal

On his tenth birthday, things got worse for Liam. His parents tried to summon something that they did not control. The creature got loose when the wards broke.  Then the screaming began waking Liam up from his sleep. We watched as the boy ran through the mansion as hellfire broke out around him. The screams would be with the boy till the day he died. We saw the boy go running out of the house while it was consumed in Hellfire. We watched as the ever faithful butler Giles came to the boy and pulled him away. The loyal servant took the boy away from the destruction and taught him magic all around the world. The boy did not return to Gotham for years. The  city for the most part thought that he had died in the fire. 

Initate the Now Signal  
Now we see our Sweetling using his magic to try and fix Gotham. The Man in the Bat Suit can only fight crazies in masks. It takes the right kind of person to fight a ghost. The Man Bat cannot punch a ghost to death since it is a ghost and all that. We wonder if Kid Solomon can even be a hero despite his family's twisted past.  Can someone with a wicked past be something good? Only time shall tell us.

Story Arcs: 
The Price of Magic: Magic has a price and Liam has racked up a large debt. The Outsider holding the Debt is willing to ignore it for the proper sacrifice. Can Liam give up His morality for his own life? Should he live? (Solo/ Team) 

Blood on the Neon Floor: Someone is kidnapping teenage club goers in Gotham and draining of every drop of blood. Liam believes that it is something to do with Black Magic but this is something he can’t do on his own. Liam's ex boyfriend was one of the victims and it felt personal. He needs all the help he can get and so he would swallow his pride and ask for help. (Team Up)

The Alignment: "When the stars were right, They could plunge from world to world through the sky; but when the stars were wrong, They could not live." : Someone is attempting to summon The Nameless One from the Source Wall. Summoning an Old God to Earth is never a good thing. It will take more than a single young Sorcerer to stop them. (Team Up)

Supporting Characters: 
All Arcs: Giles Stonier: Liam's family butler. The older man's job is to teach his young charge about Magic as he had been ordered. The man never seems to age. 

The Payment: Zurzazak (The one holding the Contract), anyone willing to help Liam not to lose his soul.

Blood on the Dance Floor: Doctor Gotham , his cult, and any team willing to help Liam stop them from causing mayhem in Gotham.

The Alignment: The Nameless One, and more but no spoilers. 

Secondary Character: 
Denny Colt: The Spirit (I have a modern twist idea for him.)

Additional Notes:
Liam prefers men over women and most certainly has a type of guy he likes. He has a weakness for the hero type of guy.
