Full Name:
Felix Ignatius Volpe
Gender:
Male
Age:
19
Birthday:
7th of November
Nationality
Irish
Appearance:
Felix stands at 4'11, and has a lithe build. The main phrase people think when they see him is Fox, as his features are quite vulpine. This isn't helped by Felix deliberately growing his red hair so that it looks like he has fox ears, and that his ears are covered by the bangs. His eyes are amber coloured, though it's rare to see them as his eyes are normally slit in a vulpine way.
For everyday wear he's usually outfitted in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt with some kind of nerd logo on it, along with a pair of trainers.
When in the Shadow World, his outfit changes to a long sleeved grey tunic, black trousers, and green boots, covered by a green sircoat with bronze trim. On the back of the sircoat is a grinning fox head in bronze.
Personality:
The best way to describe Felix is a workaholic without work. His brain thrives on solving problems and challenging himself, but unfortunately his singleminded dedication to those things causes him to burn through them quicker than Sonic with a chili dog. As such this often leaves him in a bitter mood, and makes him pretty snarky to those around him.
While not a sociopath, he does have a poor grasp of emotions and how to actually deal with them. He's tried to understand, even taking an A level in psychology to try and gain more knowledge, but people are a closed book to him.
If someone does manage to actually befriend Felix, he is possessive of them. He won't stifle their freedom, but of anyone crosses them he will put his considerable intellect to destroying them.

Backstory:
Born in the town of Llychbaen in Ireland, Felix was orphaned at the age of six. His family was driving home from the cinema when they got hit by a truck. Felix only survived as he was in the back seat. According to his psychiatrist, this is probably the root of his muted empathy.
He was placed into the care of his mother's brother, Odin Stone, who worked at a pub in London named the King's Back. Dating back to 1660, the old pub was named as a nod to the monarchy restoration, and the sign has a picture of a king facing away.
While Odin tried, he wasn't particularly a good parent, being a few years too young to have kids. It didn't help that post the accident Felix had developed a need to keep his brain working. At first it was a method to stop remembering the accident, but the rush of challenging the limits of intelligence was intoxicating to the young boy. It wasn't until he was eleven that the problem with this mindset began to show up. When he didn't have something to latch on to, he became irritable and depressed, all that mental activity with nothing to latch on to.
Fortunately he met Raphael around this time. The two literally hit it off as Felix was at peak withdrawal, and Raph wasn't in the mood for his snarky bullshit. Raph kicked his arse as Felix hadn't started Taekwondo yet, but the two found sort of kindred spirits in the other. They were both kids with issues that their peers couldn't understand.
Life passed quickly after that. Felix continued to wander aimlessly through life, merely moving between one challenge and the next. He signed up for archaeology at university on a whim, though the idea of travelling around excavating history did appeal to the youth, if only because new countries meant new challenges.
Reynard the Fox
Description of persona:
Reynard is a character dating back near a millennia. A trickster spirit, and the protagonist of a number of stories where his wit got him both into and out of many situations. Said stories were actually so popular in their day that it changed the French for fox from 'Goupil' to 'Renard'.
Due to the prevelance of Kitsune in the collective consciousness, in no small part due to an anime that shall remain nameless, Reynard has been changed to fit the more fantastical creatures, granting him more of a mystical nature.
Abilities:
Grants the ability to weave illusions to confuse and manipulate opponents
Can deal Curse damage which grants the affliction Marked for Death increasing the damage others do to the target.
Resistance to Mental Effects
Equipment:
Wields a quaterstaff and a crossbow.
Theme Song:
Fairy Tail OST: Lightning Dragon Flame Roaring
