Bio: Roman wasn't always a shadowrunner, in fact he worked alongside his sister Reina at Aztechnologies magical applications division. He spent his days earning a salary researching magical logistics and the numerous applications for them all. Roman and his sister often got chances to examine certain books, grimoires and artifacts Aztech managed to "aquire". Usually Reina would decipher the many different languages and/or energies associated with their projects while Roman looked at the general applications for such projects in daily life. Commercializing and mass producing magical "blueprints" in which could be casted for either many different applications both in millitary and civillian use.
One day at work, they were given an artifact that seemed slightly different than what they were used to. A golden parchment with strange writings and web like decorations on it roughly the size of a flyer. Roman and his sister were constantly under armed watch while researching it and weren't allowed to use their usual research lab to decipher the project. It was fairly obvious whatever this thing was had great magical power and potential. Reina couldn't sleep for days after trying to decipher its writings and ornate markings that made no logical sense. She became infactuated with it and soon asked for more time to research its origin but was quickly denied. Its origin obvously kept secret as well as pretty much everything else about it. Reina was good at what she did, often nicknamed Rosetta stone comolimenting her ability to decode and see things others could not.
One night, Roman woke out of a dead sleep only to hear a loud crackling noise from his sisters room. A large surge of energy knocked the door straight off its hinges and tossed clear through the opposite window of his 50 story apartment. Men in uniforms brandishing rifles aimed at them shouting, asking the location of the artifact. Roman shouted and cried desperately that he knew nothing as the men pushed their way into his sisters room. Reina standing ready as if prepared for a fight summoned a concrete golem in the center of her tiny bedroom easily pushing back at the several armed uniforms. "Roman, take this and run!" Reina said as she tossed him the revolver. Roman hesitated as he watched his sister brandish a fireball in each hand and lob them in the other direction. Something he's never seen her do before. Roman attempted to draw his pistol and attempted to summon up something that could help but his sister saw his attempt at protecting her and pushed him straight out the window with a whole hearted smile on her face. "Run away and live, then come find me after." She whispered as she stood by the windowsill, watching her brother plummet 50 stories.
Roman doesn't remember hitting the ground... but he promises that he will run, delete his identity, grow strong enough and find a way to rescue his sister... and what better way than to become a shadowrunner?
Cyberware: Retinal smartlink heads up display (Hud)- pretty self explanitory and quite basic. Provides enhanced situational awareness and basic mission data. It also has a built in clock and calorie counter.
Magic: Hermetic summoner deals in the conjuration of beings using strict alchemical circles as a base. Using mathmatics and logic to summon the precise conjuring or item.
His power is based on logic and the materials around him. Using his surrounding elements to summon creatures or objects into this world using a mixture of magical "blueprints" and surrounding resources. Lesser spells can be used within a couple seconds while major conjurations take much longer.
Spells:
Lesser spells:
Creating a very thin red wire from a drop of his own blood used as a type of tripwire to either use in conjuction with magical traps or to simply detect enemies when tripped. If the wire is touched or broken no matter where he is, he will know. Roman can create multiples of these but need magic to keep sustained thus a constant minor drain is needed.
working in conjunction with soul wire or alone as a timed trap. A small gathering of a certain resource (earth, metal, gas, water, fire, etc) is forced into a tiny demon door and released with moderate force. This requires an outside source of resources to be effective but can still be used simply with air. Air most of the time is non lethal and will only push someone off their feet.
Major Spells:
This is Romans favorite spell and also his most powerful. Using a demon door as a base, He gathers his surrounding resources to create summoned elementals or with blood and flesh (others or his own) can summon creatures from the other side. These summons take time and much concentration to use. The control over these summonings vary wildly and have been known to disobey at times if the summon has a high amount of willpower. The amount of drain on him is dependant on the size of the summon. (Exe. A halfling sized creature can be summoned for roughly six hours, human sized last roughly an hour and anything larger lasts less than a couple minutes at best)
exactly what it means. He can create a wall out of whatever resources he has around him. Walls take time, energy and resources to create. Multiple Demon doors are often required to build anything bigger than the size of a human and its density is also dependant on resources used. Walls he creates can be broken back down but require time and energy. Its often faster to just knock them down with force. (Providing they aren't made from a highly dense and stable material)
Gear: Roman usually travels light aside from a couple ammo pouches and a few vials of blood. (Summoning purposes) he tends to keep his trusty revolver with him at all times.
Roman's trusty revolver is pretty old school but is no slouch. It packs a suprising punch and can fire modern ammunition in multiple calibers with a switch of the cylinder. Its usually carried in a matching old fashioned holster by his left hip. (He is a lefty) it was given to him as a present by his sister.
Other: will add more soon...
