Fairy Tail: United we Stand REMAKE

Ben was just glad he made it through the door before Vero, he hated a grand entrance, especially when its all sizzle, no steak.
Sanguin and Raghu had just finished kicking the crap out of each other, now that was always something he could show more of an appreciation for. A hard fought battle to settle any dispute was the norm in Fairy Tail. If they didn't understand your point verbally, maybe you could just beat the understanding into them. Ben chuckled to himself as he stood near the door. Watching intently as the newbie he ran into out front approached Alicia at the bar, roughly the same time Mary arrived back from her latest job. The general word on her was that she was just as beautiful as her plants, and twice as deadly. Although Ben never saw her in action he knew to respect his S-Class wizards.

A commotion broke out over near the table where Vero was putting on his little song and dance routine, Ben was attempting to ignore this when suddenly a loud roar erupted from the ground next to the bar. Out from a small rubble pile "jumped" a young dark-skin girl in green armor, to Ben's memory he didn't recognize her, maybe her just forgot her name. Chloe? Was that it? At this point he didn't care he knew what he had came back to do. Before he could make his way through the sweaty drunken mess of guild members the strange gold glitter that had exploded out of the sky... Vero, again. Had now morphed into a swarm of bees around one particular lady causing her much discomfort, all this going on around Ben had his head spinning. It was then he heard Master Pollux calling out for Yukiko... that was when he saw her.

Upon noticing the tiny, sprite-like figure of the little girl known as Yukiko floating, no actually flying up by the rafters Ben was awestruck. So much so that he walked, mouth agape through the guild and was so transfixed by her flight that he didn't have time to see Zy run him right over. The two collided in a thud of muscle and bone as the two crumbled to a heap on the floor. Funny that they should run into each other, Ben was just about to show his support for the "bee illusion" when Yukikos aerial abilities were put on display. How Ben envied her and her flight, with his weak understanding of Wind magic he himself could barely levitate, let alone fly.

As the two boys lay in a pile on the floor a groan escaped Zy as he rolled over and apologized to Ben. "Don't worry Zy, oddly enough you seem to be the kinda guy who might be willing to help me out." Ben sprung to his feet with a slight quickness in his step and immediately lent a hand to Zy, returning him to his feet. "I don't often believe in coincidences, I feel we ran into each other for a reason." His look turned to a more serious tone as his brow straightened and his voice took on a stern melody. "I know you don't believe about this mess in Haven, but I've read the flyer, and I don't know about you but something doesn't feel right." Zys look on his face said it all "not you too" and Ben could read the apprehension in his eyes."Just hear me out," Ben said. "I just know Gramps wouldn't take down a job request without a god reason I just feel we deserve to know what that reason is. Some of these kids know people in Haven, we cant just let something happen if it is actually a problem we can solve." Now Ben was getting heated, he could still see the disbelief in Zys stare."Listen man, if you dnt think you're strong enough that's fine! But I know I can handle this and I'm gonna find out what Master is hiding, do you think you can keep up?" Ben has his usual childish smile plastered on his face as his competitive streak was getting the best of him. He now stood awaiting Zys reply, "Maybe," he thought "Zy knows another wizard around here who could help, I doubt Gramps could say no to 3 of us going to Haven.

Okay so Vendrick and Ben are also accepted. Go nuts~ Now I have a few things to take care of in PM's before I post.EDIT; Also does anyone else do that thing when they make a novice character like Yukiko where they just sit there and plan how badass they will be in 10 years? Because I'm hoping to develop Yukiko into an amazing aerial combat specialist and revolve all of her spells around her wings and natural flight. And she is going to dress up in an Aviator outfit kinda like and she will be adorable.I also want to give her a spell called "Nose Dive" and yes it is exactly as it sounds I am so hyped.

Yeah man, actually that's why Ben, at age 21 still only has 3 weapons to requip outside of his masters dagger. He doesn't even wear armor yet because he is still so ignorant to feel as though his offensive power is all he needs. So he and Yukiko will have plenty of time to grow up together, With the practice and growth of his Wind magic eventually Ben will be able to fly :D

Fairy Tail: United we Stand REMAKE

lol, with the sound of swooning damsels in the background :P

Fairy Tail: United we Stand REMAKE

Fairy Tail: United we Stand REMAKE

The guild hall was alive with sound and circumstance, everyone was hustling and bustling along, folks returning from jobs (some more worse for wear) and other going out to earn their Jewels. Music was playing off in the distance. Ben could hear people having some sort of discussion about a "monster" in the town of Haven. He paid little attention to that, as he had more pressing matters to attend to.

*CRACK*

A loud sound echoed throughout the hall as the cue ball connected with the 9 sending it straight for the corner pocket. "Jeez Colby," Ben kidded "You just wanna call this your third loss now so I can Just take all the Jewel You have with ya? I have some reading I planned on getting back to and I really don't want to embarrass you in front of your buddies" A childish formed across his face, "Tell ya what, you sink this next shot blindfolded, and we call it even, Cool?" And with that Colby sealed his fate and chalked another win up on the board for Ben. "I am unstoppable!" he shouted. "Alright kids I gotta go do a little reading now, if anyone needs me, they know where I'll be."

---

Back in his room Ben unfolded the small piece of nondescript paper he removed from his pocket and began to skim its contents. "The Horror of Haven" it read, "This terrible entity has been viciously slaughtering travelers and townsfolk alike. Terrifying all whom live here and wreaking havoc on the surrounding landscape we ask that you come here and find out the source of this terrible blight that has fallen upon us. Please aid us in our time of need for we have no one else to turn to..."

The request went on.. "500,000 Jewel" he thought "Quite the payout for what could easily be just some lunatic with a blood lust." I wonder why Pollux was so quick to hide this from us? Does he really think its a waste of time? I bet he just doesn't think any of us here can handle it! Not like it's some special S-Class quest or anything. I wonder if I should just head to Haven to check it out? He thought to himself. As Ben looked around his studio apartment he remembered that this place wasn't free, and he hadn't done a decent paying job in quite some time. "Maybe" he thought. "Maybe Pollux will let me go on this quest if I confront him about it, or I can just go back to the guild and see if I can sucker anyone else into a little trouble, after all, what can it hurt?"

With that thought Ben gathered up his things and headed back to the guild, he figured he would try to find a few capable people to team up with, seeing as he knew Gramps would tell him "NO" outright if he as trying to do this one solo.

---

As he entered the guild he brushed past a young man with long blonde hair seemingly standing awestruck in front of the guild. As he passed Ben turned with a smile and said "You know, you actually have to open the doors before you can get inside" He chuckled and pushed open the guild doors, stopping to hold them open for a second and turning to the mage behind him. "If you make it past these bad boys, look for Pollux Vermillion, he's our guild master...after you talk to him, come find me in the guild hall" He motioned to the mage with a thumbs up and a wink, "I'm Ben by the way, hope to see ya inside"

With that Ben ducked into the doorway and made his way over to a small table with some unfamiliar members who he had overheard earlier talking about this Haven mess and proceeded to wait for the right time to approach.

Nickname/Alias : Ben, for now.
Age : 21
DOB : Unknown
Gender : Male
Sexuality : Straight

Appearance :

Ben Appearance

Ben looks much like the picture but with a blue scarf and headband, also no eye patch.
Other Details : His Guild mark rests on his back, near his upper right shoulder and is dark green in color, he also posses a scar running the entire length of his left bicep.

Personality : Ben is a rather outgoing young man who has a strong thirst for life and adventure. He tends to trust more than he should and tries to see the best in everyone, which can get him into an awful lot of trouble. He is always a fan of a good joke and although he is seen as a bit immature at times, his resolve and will in battle are unmatched and his is a worthy adversary for any wizard. An avid fan of the female form his is constantly flirting with the female guild members and has even been known to hit on female opponents should he find them attractive. Loves to cook and very skilled in the kitchen, not much of a drinker.

Arsenal : Ben always carries his first masters dagger with him.

Dagger

The Dagger takes on multiple forms however the two most basic are shown above, the curved blade is the form it takes when being used in actual combat, the top form is more often seen when the dagger is used to aid in the casting of spells, it is said the dagger can amplify the spells power.
The actual power the blade itself contains is unknown. Even though Ben may requip many different weapons, he currently is in possession of only 3 not counting his masters dagger.

Arsenal

Bladed Tonfa

Mages Katana

Increases the power of element-based attacks with this blade

Scythe of Angels

(THE SILVER SCYTHE) This scythe is said to be imbued with the soul of an angel granting it exceptional power with healing and rejuvenation magics.

Magic Type : Caster & Holder
Mage Rank : High "C" rank Mage, hopeful to one day become the best and most powerful S-Class wizard in Fairy Tail
Magic : Weapon Magic & Wind Magic The Wind magic is mainly used for its defensive capabilities and the levitation in battle, Link prefers the use of his Weapon Magic for offensive purposes.

Spells:

Offensive

Sonic Sword: Ben's most used weapon magic attack, he slashes at the air with his blade twice in a sharp X motion, the blast of sonic air is sent the form of a powerful beam that can shred through most anything.

Blades of Fury: Ben dashes quickly at his opponent moving with uncanny speed and attacks with sharp, precise strikes dealing great amounts of damage while seemingly never actually touching his opponent.

[b]B.F.B.(Big F*cking Blade): Ben's "dagger" increases to twice the size of himself allowing him to use sweeping strikes dealing massive amounts of damage to large crowds, also useful against larger opponents and buildings/structures. This spell can only be used for a small amount of time as it requires a great amount of magic energy to not only increase the size of the blade, but to wield it effectively.

Wind
Wind Blade: With this spell Ben is able to draw in the ambient air around him and focus it into roughly a dozen small concentrated "blades" of wind that are then fired at the target with intense speed.

Storm Bringer: Moving His hands in a circular motion Ben manipulates the surrounding wind and releases it as a tornado towards the target. Once this tornado reaches the target, it spins and sends them flying both disorienting the target and doing intense amounts of damage

Defensive

Wind
Storm Mail: Ben motions his arms in an "X" pattern in front of him, causing wind to spin around until he is covered by an armor of wind. This armor does not only increase his defenses, but also augments his destructive power.

Wind Wall: Ben casts a tornado of wind moving at intense speeds either encapsulating his opponent and trapping them or creating an impenetrable barrier between Ben and his enemy.

Other
Telekinesis: This ability grants Ben the option of communication with fellow guild members and team mates telepathically. He still hasn't quite mastered it and only seems to be able to use this power when in times of intense stress or battle.

Levitation/Flight:With the use of Wind Magic Ben has gained the ability to levitate and even fly for short distances and it has been known to drain his magic energy rapidly.

Biography: Ben came to Fairy Tail at a very young age with a strong desire to be a powerful wizard one day. Growing up in a small farm outisde of Magnolia he was always hearing about the famed guilds stories. Shortly after his 9th birthday Bens father and two sisters were both struck with plague and died orphaning the young boy.
When he first met

Master Johb

at the age of 10 he quickly realized this "geezer" was no normal mage. Johb had taught Ben everything he knew in the ways of Weapon magic before he left. To this day still has no clue where Johb is or even if the old man is still alive. The only thing he has to remember his first master by is the magic dagger which is always on Bens hip. After the disappearance of Johb, Ben at age 12 found himself hungry and homeless. After wandering guildless all over the kingdom of Fiore and doing odd jobs he found his way into the path of a few Fairy Tail guild members. Unfortunately for him they were rather powerful mages and gave him quite the kicking. After all that's what he gets trying to rob a few members of the most power guild around. Once recovered from his beating he realized he couldn't continue to live life as a guildless scavenger, and so made his way back to Magnolia. There he approached Pollux about becoming a guild member and proceeded to join Fairy Tail. His main motivation is unknown although seeing as he loves to joke and be the center of attention it is rumored that the only reason Ben joined the guild is for Fame. His drive to become an S-Class wizard furthers the so-called validity of these rumors, although no one risks saying these things to Bens face as he is always keen on handing out an ass kicking.

Other: Although Ben is over 20 years old his magic skill is still fledgeling. He only comes into possession of his magical weapons at certain times as these items are quite rare. The amount of time and skill it takes to master each weapon is immense and as such has caused Ben to focus on only a few weapons at a time.
