Daniel Reyes
Location: Home > Castle Street Cafe
Interacting With: Brian Cobald (manager)
Daniel woke up with a groan. He didn't sleep much last night and the sleep he did manage to get was restless. Sitting up in bed, he glanced over at the clock on his bedside table. The bright green numbers that read 7:34am seemed to glare at him in the darkness of the room. Seeing as he probably wasn't going to get anymore sleep today, Daniel forced himself out of bed and started his usual morning routine. Thinking back on the night before was useless as it didn't make much sense to him then so why would it now? Grimbold had told them they would be learning something new at the Shrine but Daniel had yet to figure out exactly what that was. After he had dressed and cleaned himself up, he made his way to the kitchenette and prepared himself a bagel with cream cheese. Glancing at the clock again told him it was now 8:02am. He didn't have to be at work until 9 today but figured he could show up a little early. He had nothing better to do anyway. Maybe he could catch his manager before everyone else showed up for their shift. He did have a mission after all. Grabbing his jacket, Daniel headed out the door, deciding to finish his bagel on the go.
As he reached the Castle Street Cafe, a smile broke out as Daniel noticed that Brian was indeed already there. For a brief moment, a thought passed through Daniel's mind that he shouldn't be as happy as he was that his manager was going to be the target of his powers. Grimbold was sure to have a greater purpose for this mission than just some petty revenge but Daniel quickly dismissed the thought. He could at least have some fun, right? The little bell above the door signaling his arrival, Daniel walked to the employee break room to put his jacket in his locker and grab his apron before returning to the front. He found Brian near the register looking over the inventory checklist from last night. Looking up as he noticed Daniel's presence, Brian gave him a quick glance before returning his attention to the clipboard in his hand. It was brief but it was all the time Daniel needed to notice the discoloration around Brian's left eye. Releasing a low whistle, Daniel made himself give off the impression of concern. "That's some shiner you got there, Brian. Rough night?" Grabbing his head, Brian winced and grunted out, "Yeah, some jackwagon decided he had something to prove after drinking too much. And to top it off, I now have this damn headache..." Concealing his enjoyment of the situation, Daniel merely replied with, "Too bad. Next time maybe you should help with inventory instead of partying with 'jackwagons'." Brian's eyes widened slightly as he realized he had been caught in his lie but Daniel pretended he hadn't noticed as he turned around to busy himself with the display cases as the first few customers started to walk in.
Very interested!
Sounds interesting
I may be interested in this. Sounds different from what I usually write but I like different. Challenges my creativity.

Daniel Reyes
Location: Grimbold's Cabin
Interacting With: N/A
As everyone reached for the box of cakes and pastries that he had so kindly "borrowed" from the Cafe, Daniel nodded his acknowledgement to each member of the group in turn as they either verbally thanked him or otherwise made some gesture of thanks in his direction. Even the simple act of thanking him brought a warm feeling to his chest. It gave him that sense of belonging that he had longed for all his life. Even though he didn't interact much with the group, he felt more at home here, in this cabin in the woods, with these people he called family, than he ever has growing up in France. Daniel glanced towards the door as Nick finally made his appearance. Without so much as a reason for his tardiness, Nick simply plopped down on the floor. The familiar pang of jealously rose up in Daniel. To be so carefree must be a blessing. However, Daniel quickly quelled his emotions, merely glad that everyone was finally here.
Finishing the bread roll in his hand, Daniel's attention was captured once more as Grimbold stood and made his announcement. Simultaneously excited and anxious to hear what was in store for them, Daniel held onto every word that left the man's mouth. A wicked smirk graced Daniel's features, a rare expression for the young man to show. His target was none other than Monsieur Brian Cobald, the manager of the Castle Street Cafe and the source of Daniel's frustration while at work. The irony was almost laughable. Ready to finally stretch his wings, Daniel stood up from the table and left the cabin. Deciding to leave the privacy of the spare room for the girls, he walked around back behind the cabin to his usual shadowed alcove nestled between two large oak trees. Daniel quickly stripped and transformed. Lean muscled arms gave way to long leathery black wings while smooth white skin was covered in course fur. Smell and hearing became amplified to their maximum potential while vision, not so much. He didn't realize it until he transformed for the first time that there was a very literal meaning behind being "as blind as a bat". But the freedom of being able to fly was more than he could ever ask for. Daniel the Bat gave his wings one good stretch before taking flight, swooping back around to the front of the cabin, and hanging upside down from a branch near the door. He noticed a raven on a branch not too far from his own tree and figured Teryn must have not wasted any time in transforming either. If he could smile right now he would. They were both impatient people it seemed.
OK sounds good. I'll make it so that the target has to at least be within Daniel's line of sight. And whistling would probably make the most sense as far as what sound he has to make.
@Obscurus So I have a rough idea of who I want my target to be and what I'll do throughout the week but that led me to thinking about how my character uses his power. I never really expanded on that in my CS. Much like how bats use echolocation by making a sound and processing information provided by the echo, I was thinking Daniel should have to make some kind of sound, either a whistle or snapping his fingers together, etc. And the intensity of the sound determines the severity of the target's headache. I was also thinking Daniel would have to make direct eye contact with the target or maybe just think of the target in his head. Wanted to get some feedback regarding what everyone's thoughts are. Also should using his power cause an adverse affect? And can our characters use their powers while in animal form?
My interest has definitely been captured with this one
