by Name: James Steel
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Birthday: 09/21
Sexuality: straight
Special Characteristics: A rune shape tattoo on each shoulder, they appear like this: "Φ"
Personality:
James has always been logical, adaptive, but recently, somewhat cocky as well. Ever since James gained his new powers he has had a strange new since of invincibility, which could be the cause of this new overconfidence. Even outside of battle, this trait shines through as well when James it presented with a mental challenge. Weather it be tests, or simple questions he tends to know the answer weather he though he knew it or not. This was most likely a result of the Journey he had completed and the knowledge he had gained from it.
James does not have any known family members as he was born an orphan. No one knew why he was left at it's door step, but James didn't seem to much care. He is the type who prefers to keep the past in the past, and currently has no interest in finding his parents or even the man who gifted him his powers. Records show his last name was actually pulse, but James figured if they couldn't keep him, he wasn't one of them. This lead him to change his last name to steel in his late teenage years. Though he didn't radiate a sense of needing a place to call home... He did, this caused him to join the Limia Scale guild.
While fighting James' logical and adaptive side begin to shine through, he nearly never makes a move without thinking first. The heat of battle almost never consumes him, as he allows his opponents to become consumed by it. He loves to use his knowledge of various magics to his advantage, when they come up that is. In the case he is unaware of his opponents abilities he will spend most of the fight trying to figure out what they are. If he can discover its source, he believes he can defeat it.
James seems to have a mild amount of Narcissistic personality disorder. Though he will try to hide it, and swear to you he doesn't have it, he does (at least to some extent). One of James' goals in life is to become famous, he desires this more than Jewel, power, or even knowledge. He feels if he can get renown from doing something, there is a good chance he will try to do it (unless it would result in infamy). If you pay close attention you might notice the smug look on his face when he gets and advantage or a laugh of confidence when he completes a difficult task.
As far as ambitions go, James seeks to also be known to the public as the worlds most powerful wizard (most likely a result of his Narcissism). He believes the way to ultimate magic power is through knowledge, and though he may not be compatible with most forms of magic he now has the advantage of knowing about them. Besides, the most common forms of magic are probably the most weak anyway...
Even though James has his down sides and selfishness, he is still a good person at his core. He despises dark guilds, as they make a mockery of his legal and honorable guild. He has also told himself in the past, "If I become the worlds most powerful wizard, me and a few guild buddies are taking a trip to the land of sin to kill every last wrenched demon..."
Bio: In his youth, James was like any other child: fun loving, care free. As he grew older, he developed a strong desire to become a wizard due to the fame and power it would provide. Tragically, he discovered he had little aptitude for any form of magic an elder wizard would teach him. This would lead him on a path to traveling the world, going from master to master, searching for someone, anyone, who could teach him some form of magic! One day, James discovered that he had accidentally wandered into the land of Sin. A old wizard there approached James and claimed if he stayed in the land, he could achieve the power which he sought. Agreeing to the old man’s terms, James was brought to an alter on top of a mountain. The old man spoke “I need you to be a test subject for a new ritual of mine…” with that the old man gave an evil cackle. He rushed at James with a needle and stabbed him in the neck, before pushing him off a mountain into a large pool of blue bio-luminescent looking liquid. The old man turned out to be a dark wizard of sorts who began to cast a spell on the body of liquid. With the completion of the spell, James could feel all the blood inside his body being released out of his pores and replaced by the liquid inside the pool. By the end of the process, the pool of liquid was gone, and replaced by a small puddle of blood. The man gave James an evil grin “My boy, you are the first to ever survive that process. Your blood has been replaced by a magical element known as blue mercury. As payment for being my test subject, I will allow you to leave this land without being followed or killed. I suggest you take that offer.” This offer was one which James would accept. Though he would occasionally wonder as to who the old man was, and where he had gone, James has little interest in actually finding him.
Likes:
• Fame- he may look humble to some, but to others, everyone knows he just wants to be famous. He hopes to someday be regarded as the worlds most powerful wizard.
• Magical Knowledge And lore- though he traveled the world and was unable to master any other form of magic than blue mercury, James enjoyed every second of it. Even though he couldn't master it, he knew how it worked. This leads to James having an above average knowledge of various magics.
• Challenge- he loves putting his new found powers to the test, pushing them as hard as he can.
Dislikes:
• Strangers- the last time he trusted one, he had all his blood ripped from his body.
• Underestimation- James hates nothing more than when someone tries to underestimate him. "You’re not strong enough" and "your too inexperienced" he particularly dislikes.
• Attacking the innocent- though he is a somewhat selfish person, James still has empathy for the innocent. He will go out of his way to defend them if he must.
Motivations:
• Accommodation- As previously mentioned, James seeks vast fame.
• Increasing his power- How is James to become the strongest wizard in all the land without the magic Power?
• Prosperity- he wishes to see the evils of the world defeated by his hand, and the kingdoms prospering as a result.
Fears:
• Discovery of Origins- the last thing he wants people to know is how he obtained his magic in an unconventional way.
• Failing his mission- James' goal is to become famous, if he lost his powers or died, he has failed his goal.
• Dark Guilds- they make a bad name for all the other honest hardworking guilds out there.
