Spoiler: Old Man José (click to show/hide)

Name: Old Man José
Age: 60
Gender: Male

Theme 1 ~ Theme 2

Appearance:

     Old Man José is an old man of Mexican nationality, his face wrinkled eyes set dark and with crow's feet; he has a thin beard of gray hair and a head of short cropped gray hair, typically covered by a plain tan farmer's hat. Over his denim overalls, he wears a thin cotton coat layered with thin cattle hide. His personality is riddled with paranoia and distrust, often bitterness or cynicism. He has a fear of the supernatural and has just now decided to take arms, reading the newspaper, grabbing his shogun, and leaving.
Biography: Old Man José was a fairly middle-class man who owned a ranch way down in Mexico, earning a living off of selling to beef companies while pursuing his own hobbies. He was a very conservative individual who distrusted the Mexican government, and especially distrusts the occult. When his distrust finally grew to anger after his entire cattle herd mysteriously died in one night, he decided to grab his good ol' shotgun, some supplies, and set out to Canada in a long journey. He really just flew there, but that's a story for another time. Strapped to the bone with silver buckshots, he began another story, this time for the history books.

Spoiler: Character (click to show/hide)

Name: Lilly Ashton
Age: 20
Gender: Female

Appearance:
Though she could take any form she wished, she usually settles on a female of average height around 5’0” tall. Her hair is usually a bright red hanging down to beneath her shoulders. The eyes that she usually wears are a bright green, that seem to sometimes glow in the dark. Due to her powers she has no blemishes or scars across her body most likely never will. Her skin is lightly tanned and her body shapely.

Almost always she wears feminine clothing, flowing dresses and skirts. Above all else there is one thing that she always keeps on her person, a small ring beset with a diamond.

Biography:
 
For most of her life Lilly has been alone. She cannot even remember her parent’s faces and any family she did have has long since proven that they don’t care about her. She was raised in a foster home with other abandoned children but even with their constant company she made very few friends amongst them. She wasn’t the best at talking to people and with everyone she met she was quickly dismissed as being strange and uncomfortable to be around.

One of the reasons for this were her eyes. They almost seemed to change colour as her emotions changed, some would had even sworn that her eyes had turned red. As you can imagine these rumours did not help an already bad reputation, these persisted even into school and so did her lack of friends. The few ones she were able to make were troublemakers and not really the people you would choose to be with.

As she began to grow with these few friends in tow she began to learn one of the best ways of getting noticed, she became the class clown. This didn’t exactly keep her out of trouble but for the first time in her life she was the center of attention, she loved the new feeling. For the rest of her time up until high school she embraced the new role and even though the rumours persisted at least she wasn’t being ignored any more.

As she was entering high school though things began to change, not just the usual things that happen at that age but something more. Her powers began to grow stronger. At the start it was uncontrollable for her, her appearance changing based on emotion alone. Her eyes, her hair and even physical gender changed without her even realising she was doing it. She was terrified and began to skip school completely as she tried to get her new ability under control. It took a long time and a lot of hard work but eventually she managed to get it under a reasonable level of control, at least enough so she wouldn’t change half way through a conversation.

She minimised the incidents in the future but now everyone knew about her and the avoidance increased no matter how hard she tried. The student had constant meetings with her teachers and she had to keep telling them that she was no threat to anyone, despite how many they said she confused. The attention she had gathered was no longer of the positive kind and no matter how hard she tried to regain it it didn’t work.

In the end though she found the one thing that she could do to get the attention she so craved. The theater. She began to train in the performing arts and quickly discovered she had a knack for it. In her last years at her school she continued this passion and with her efforts when she left school she managed to join theater group. Which is where she is today. Even with her path set she was still curious about many things, especially where her powers came from.

[SOLDIER First]

Spoiler: Sneak Guy (click to show/hide)

Name: Mallory Gaspard
Age: 28
Gender: Male

Appearance: A tall man (6'4" or more) with a thin frame, dark complexion, and roughly-stubbled face. His hair is dark and long all around, parted in the middle so as to keep it out of his eyes (although it often falls down anyway). Mallory's eyes are a bright, piercing blue. Rather fond of thick clothing which would seem impractical for his line of work.
Biography: Mallory was born close to the southern border of Canada to a long line of Frenchman with a history getting into less-than-savory business. It was a family tradition, really. His great-grandfather was an arms smuggler, his grandfather just a smuggler in general, and his father was a notorious bank robber, so it made sense young Mallory would make his parents proud and tarnish the Gaspard name for another generation... and tarnish it he did.
It started slowly, at first. Shiny new toys found their way into his room whenever he went over a friend's to play. His academics were the highest in his classes (and the teachers were consistently finding their answer sheets missing). People on the street lost an expensive watch or a few hundred dollars as they walked by.
On his eighteenth birthday, his father couldn't have been prouder of his son's natural skill, and finally told Mallory how the family always kept their big operations in the dark: Magic. For hundreds and hundreds of years the Gaspard clan kept a book of spells, with wrinkled pages and a tarnished cover; spells that could turn one invisible or silent as an owl. Mallory's father gave him the book and allowed him to choose several spells from it to start, but once he was head of the family, the book was his to do with as he wished...
Mallory chose four: one that could send him across a short distance in an instant, one that allowed him to pull objects towards him from afar, one that molded him into the very shadows themselves, and one that linked the fate of anyone he chose. Mallory used these supernatural tools and his natural prowess to become, ten years later, the most famous thief-for-hire in the country. If you needed something stolen, you asked for Gaspar. For the most challenging jobs, there was no competition. But...
But, even those who love what they do could use a break every once in a while - to do something on the other side of the law, for example...

Attributes:
Fitness (FIT): Mediocre
Coordination (COO): Fair
Magic (MAG): Good
Mental (MEN): Fair

Skills:
Control Magic - Shadows
Appraisal (The smartest men know what they have while it's in their hands.)
Climbing (It's important to be able to see a target from any angle.)
Perception (He's good at seeing things around him and noticing little details others would miss.)
Stealth (What kind of thief would he be if he got caught all the time?)


Gifts/Faults:
One With Shadow: Mallory is more used to darkness than light, be it magic or mundane. +1 to COO and MAG.
Blink [Minor]: A short-ranged teleport. Can go farther, but uses more mana.)
Far Reach [Minor]: Shadowy magic manifests into a hand and pull Mallory's desired object to him. It can pull him as well, but is more exhausting to do so.
Shadow Walk [Minor]: Mallory dissolves into an enchanted mass of shadow, albeit still able to move and interact with the world. Quite visible in the light.


The Urge: Despite himself, Mallory just can't seem to keep his hands off of anything worth something. Sometimes initiates MEN rolls to resist compulsive theft of valuable objects.
Underexposure: After so long in the dark, the light will blind you. -1 to any rolls against light-based magic or while around bright light.
Visions from Darkness: Friends do lie to you, sometimes. Mallory will occasionally see things that aren't there, or miss those that are, while and immediately after using his powers.

So am I good?  Ish?

[wipeout1024]

Spoiler: Fantasia Dixon (click to show/hide)

Name: Fantasia Marie Dixon
Age: 16
Gender: Female.

Appearance:

Fantasia is a Black teenage girl, who has brown hair typically worn loose, as well as very dark brown, almost black eyes. She's fond of the color purple, and she tends to wear a plain white shirt, jeans, while putting on a jacket of some kind, as well as sneakers. Her hair just goes a bit past her shoulders.

Biography:
To be fair to Fantasia, growing up the daughter of a self-proclaimed medium was quite a strange childhood. Mary-Anne Dixon (until she changed her name to the Mysterious Monique), was a woman who mainly occupied herself by pretending to see ghosts, which made it all the worse when their apartment in Flint burned down in a mysterious fire. Luckily for them, they managed to get out before the entire building went up in smoke, but with that, Fantasia and her mother immigrated to Canada, specfically Niagara Falls, to live with her grandparents, who had moved up there for god-knows-what reason. At school, Fantasia ended up becoming a writer for the school newspaper, although she often ends up sensationalizing some (okay, many) of her articles, as well as gaining a reputation as a bit of a gossip. However, when she heard about the ghost hunting, she immediately signed up, not because she really wanted to learn more about her mother's career, but because she wanted an amazing story.

Attributes:
Fitness (FIT): Mediocre
Coordination (COO): Mediocre
Magic (MAG): Fair
Mental (MEN): Fair

Skills:
Gossip
Note-Taking
Flattery
Stealth
Search

Gifts/Faults:
Looking For a Scoop: Being a journalist means always being on the hunt for a scoop, even in the strangest of places. This gives Fantasia the ability to detect various details that others might not notice, but only if she believes that it's something interesting, or could be used to write something about, giving her a +1 to noticing these details. In addition, this also gives her the ability to pick up on details that others may have missed, meaning that the GM may possibly give out extra details, if no one else has discovered or noticed them.
