Appearance

Mask

Name: Isaiah Foster Age: 28 Gender: Male Mask Abilities: The power of illusions, making those the wearer targets see, hear, smell, taste, or feel whatever they pleases. The mask seems to awaken the more negative aspects of his personality, and give it new life. Neither his physical condition nor appearance seems to have changed, and he need only have the mask in his possession for it to work. Personality: Working as a photography teacher, he is often seen as the first person to go to for good, non-prejudiced advice. Still, he is a worrier of a man who often tries to hide his feeling of anxiety and doubt with humour and friendliness, and avoids thinking too deeply of his own personal problems by working on his photography and writing. This man seems thoughtful, compassionate, forgiving…and a darker side to him loathes how pitifully he feels himself to be, and mores so loathes the pity of others. Deep down, he knows himself a coward, and doesn't want to burden others, but is ultimately afraid of being abandoned. Even deeper down, since he first touched the mask, a tiny voice is telling him he doesn't even really need anyone in his world. Quick Biography: Him and his young fraternal twin were both failed abortions, though unfortunately Isaiah was the only one coming out of it not quite healthy. Both being adopted by a doctor couple who took care of them for the longest time, both fully able to help him along in his youth with paraplegia and chronic pain. They wanted to treat both their new sons equally…which somehow ended up not having expectations of them at all. Twenty plus years later, somehow his healthy brother ends up being the irresponsible rehab dwelling drunk-druggie, leeching off of their adoptive parent’s saved money…while Isaiah became a well-known enough photographer and artist, able to support himself. Finally proposing to his long-time girlfriend, it was a photography student of his that revealed evidence of his fiancé’s affair…with his brother. It sort of…broke the small confidence he had, as it seemed more and more like the world was rewarding his brother more for nothing, and that his wife to be was staying with him due to pity. Still, afraid of becoming alone by revealing what he knew, antagonising his own brother and fiancé with the truth…he decided to just pretend he didn’t know of any of this, and marry her anyway. Any sweetness from her was becoming more and more obvious pity, to him, long stretches of time becoming more…their honeymoon was spent acting happy about being newlywed, and the sights of Venice. It was his wife that bought him the Jester mask, joking about how it was ‘fitting’. Fitting? How? Was she calling him a fool? A jester in medieval eras was mentally handicapped, not physically; she had to be calling him a fool for apparently not knowing about the affair. The mask in hand, he cast his first ever illusion on himself as he held it up to his face.

Damn, I was planning to go gas mask with this...back to the drawing board!

Pyromaniacal...that'd be a weird fit with the backstory I've given 'em. I think I'll choose something very similar.

I am just entirely stuck on what sort of power the mask grants a pug... *facepalms with brick*

Too Many Collaborations?! (pyroman & Major Ursa)

Yumi seemed to be thinking a little bit after hearing the answer to her question, before finally voicing, "I wonder, what would be the guy's ideal straight man...? I'm thinking....a stoic archer type?" Kyoko's curled into a cat like smile. "His ideal man isn't straight." The older teen looked like she was about to open her mouth to speak, but instead let out a sigh and had the 'Really? Really?!' incredulous sort of expression on her face. The nymph loli laughed awkwardly, and while the mermaid loli seemed to ignore it all with a deadpan expression. "You walked yourself into that one." As if waking from whatever her usual standby mode was, Julie held out her cellphone in one hand, and pointed at the screen with another. The picture was of her most recent cosplays, dressing up as a maid at some sort of meet up outside of school. It was strange to see, but the members of the class occasionally seen a photo or two of the Julie that wore a different sort of expression. Pink maid outfit...and a smile, hand held up in a peace sign, "Thoughts?"
