Slade Wallins

Name: Slade "the Blaze" Wallins
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Birthday: 08/29

Special Characteristics: Slade has a tattoo on the upper part of his left arm that reads "Blaze" on it. It's a nickname that he received from his love of fire and he wears it on his arm so that others know who defeated them.

Personality:

When Slade isn't in battle, he's a usually friendly guy that tries to befriend others. He, however, doesn't have very much luck with making friends because he likes to fight. Usually he'll try to fight someone for no reason and it turns people away because the person he's met doesn't like that sort of thing. He also sees himself as somewhat as an outcast because of two things. One being that others doesn’t share his fighting spirit with him and the other being that he's been orphaned for a majority of his whole life. Others had parents, Slade lacked that and no matter how many he befriends he'll always think that he doesn't belong.

Causing trouble is another thing that plays a part in the way Slade acts. Whenever things were too boring and peaceful, he took it upon himself to change things. It’s not that he likes to stir up trouble, he just wants to make just about anything fun. Some like this about him while others think it’ll make him a wanted felon but one thing is for sure, he’ll never stop because boring was never fun for him.

Being too honest is another way to describe his behavior. Even if it meant accomplishing a mission, job, or hurting someone’s feelings, Slade would always be honest. There are some people who don’t like that side of them, but no matter what he won’t change his ways. If he was to lie, the guilt would always eat away at him until eventually he snaps.

Acting like another person entirely is something Slade has been accused of whenever he entered a fight. He’s very determined to win no matter what happens whenever others see that about him, they respect him. It’s a personal goal that he wants to accomplish more than anything because he thinks if others respect him; it’ll inspire them to bring out their full potential.

Being relentless is another side of him that overtakes his body whenever he enters a fight and sometimes this scares people away. To Slade, until his opponent is unable to win, he’ll never think that it’s over and he’ll never stop until that happens. Because of this some have tried playing dead to call off the fight. Sometimes whenever someone tried that, he’d notice them getting back up and continue to strike.

Slade will also act a little cocky whenever he fights someone for some reason. Even whenever he’s on the losing side of things, he’ll try to act tough towards his opponents. Occasionally when some see this, they take the bluff and eventually get scared. There are some that don’t, however, and when that happens, the determined side of him takes over.

When fighting there is one major weakness he has that sometimes gets the better of him and that is a girl. It's not because Slade sees them as weaklings or something, he just can't help but to show off whenever one is around. This disadvantage also gets the better of him sometimes, almost causing him to lose focus on the fight.

Likes:
• Fire: Plain and simple, Slade loves fire. Not even he knows why, but whenever he does, he's fired up for battle!

• Drinking: This was a habit he received from whenever he lost into an addiction.

• Challenges: Everyone likes to be tested and Slade is no different. Testing just how far he's come is the greatest achievement in his eyes.

Dislikes:
• Cards Games: After losing too many times... he wants no part in them and wishes the game never existed.

• Losing: There are many who don't like to lose and Slade is one of them. Whenever he feels the shame of defeat, he will always stick to himself until his depression fades.

• Cowards: Even when faced with a losing fight, he hates anyone that retreats, even his enemies. If anyone does on his side, he sees it as a sign of weakness and punches them.

Motivations:
• His Parents: Slade has no idea where his parents are after they abandoned him when he was about the age of eight. He does, however, knows what they look like and knew that they were mages. He believes that they left him because he was weak and hopes that one day he'll show them that he isn't.

• Progression: Working to become a better mage is what he desires most. It first occurred after him wanting to use his progression to reunite with his parents.

• A True Rival: Another thing that keeps Slade motivated is finding a true rival that he can compete with on occasion. He's watched countless others have one so he does as well.

Fears:
• Fear of Heights: This was fear that happened after Slade climb a tree to get a better view of something and fell. Being in high places troubles him greatly and whenever he has to travel up high places, he becomes almost useless, thinking that he'll fall again.

• Fear of Water: Slade isn't afraid of this because it extinguishes his joy of flames, but because he once fell in a pond. No one showed him how to swim so he was stuck there, waiting for someone to rescue him.

• Fear of Failing: Failing to accomplish a mission or trial or anything of the kind is something Slade fears more than anything. It's a sign that he hasn't progressed like he wanted to and shows him that he's one step behind in his goals.
