The Library

they're all going on at the same time. that's why she needs three for each

The Library

i just got to reading the casualty list, and i thought to myself "what the hell happened with some of these people?"

for instance, "is now avidly searching for koalas" probably has a story behind it.

Charles Night

Charles' right eye glows a soft red, due to his spirit living in his empty socket.
Bio: Charles almost lost his life at the age of 14, when he was trapped in a falling building. Lodged under a fallen girder, he had given up on living when his Spirit appeared to him. Using it's own mana in a desperate attempt to keep him alive, they hung on together until he could be rescued. unfortunately, infusing it's mana so intricately with his own left his spirit unable to survive without a direct connection to him, and so it took the place of his missing eye. 10 years later Charles found his way into the Intelligence department of the Library.
Branch: Intelligence

Holder: Knight
Spirit:
-Name: Sophia

-Personality: Sophia is a kind, though sometimes ill mannered, spirit, always seeming to be tired unless there is action. Though she seems ordinary enough, Sophia has many unique skills suitable for speed and stealth.
-Special Conditions: Sophia is a Knight spirit focusing on speed, but due to her inability to leave Charles' contact she cannot manifest herself. Instead, when she would be summoned she instead spreads her Mana through Charles far more powerfully, temporarily granting him the abilities she would have had herself. When resonating, Charles goes through several physical changes, including the red coloring of his right eye spreading to both, his hair lengthening temporarily, and Asian lettering appearing on his arms and chest.
[Active State] When receiving power from Sophia, Charles can enter an Active State, increasing the strength of their resonance by using Radian Mana to supplement their own. This action improves his overall abilities, AGI +5, Pow +3, Jump lvl +1. This Active State can last for 5 posts, and has a Cooldown of double the time spent in it.

Weapons/Spells: Weapons for Rooks, Spells for Bishops and a combination for Knights. Pawns can ignore this section.

* Telepathy: Charles can speak directly into the mind of anyone he has met before, or who is in his direct line of sight. He can converse with multiple people at once, and even use his mind as a psychic hub to connect multiple people together, though if more than three people are talking in his head he starts getting distracted from other tasks.
* Chain Knives: When Resonating, Charles can use Sophia's weapons, one of which is the Chain Knives. The knives have a variable length of chain between them and can either be used for combat or as a dual grappling hook.
* Four Fold Staff: Sophia's most complicated weapon, the four fold staff can be used as four different weapons: a bo staff, a three section staff, a scythe, and a naginata.

Skills: A list of the skills you've got.

[Wallflower lvl 2]
[Climb lvl 2]
[Binocular lvl 1]
[Jump lvl 3]

Maria Caroline Miller

Appearance:
Bio: Maria belongs to a wealthy family, her father being involved in politics. Growing up, her mother always told her that it was the woman's duty to protect the man she chooses to marry, not serve him. She held onto her belief that in every household the man's wife served as his shield, and it was her greatest wish to be able to do the same. Her desire to protect is what drew her spirit, Titanus, to her on her 18th birthday, and soon brought her to a position in the Library.
Branch: Mercenary

Holder: Rook
Spirit: Titanus

Titanus is very passive, almost never taking part in conversations. Some people doubt if he can even speak, since the only time he responds is when somebody he respects asks him a question directly. In fact, the only person he currently talks with is Maria.

Weapons/Spells:

Titanic Armor: Maria summons a suit of armor made from the same material as Titanus' fullplate, which has the mysterious property of attracting enemy attention. While she wears it, she gains a +1 bonus to her provoke skill.
[Active] Titanic Defense: Maria replaces her armor with Titanus' own, turning her into an impregnable fortress of steel. The armor protects her from any physical damage, but reduces her mobility to one third of her normal speed. Duration 4, CD 20.
Titanic Shield: Maria summons Titanus' shield, which has the same properties as his armor. Any physical blow that contacts the shield is turned away, and the impact behind the shield becomes negligable.
[Active] Titanic Repulsion: Titanus' shield will now reflect the blows that impact it back at the source, instead of simply nullifying them. Duration 5, CD 10.
Titanic Crystal: Maria summons a crystal shield that absorbs any harmful magic directed at it. Each spell it blocks lights up one of the 12 crystal sections that make up the shield, and when 3 or more are filled Maria can release a shock wave from the shield, consuming the magic to force anyone in front of the shield backwards, as if she had Shoved them. (Every 3 crystals lit simulates 1 level of Shove)
[Active] Titanic Refraction: Instead of a shockwave, Maria can release the magic stored in the shield in it's original form, casting the spell meant for her at whomever she chooses. The spell is unchanged (If it was set to track her, it will still track her. If it couldn't effect the caster, it still won't.), but she releases it in the direction the shield is facing. Duration 1, CD 5+ CD of the spells released, if any. Only one spell in every set of three crystals can be cast.

Skills:

Provoke 3
Traction 2
Painkiller 1
Stomp 1

Stats:

Magical science...Is that the art of taking magic and ruining people's lives by turning into a scientific discipline?

no, that's Christian Science. Magical is just an adjective here.
