Magic Name: Black Cat of the Night
Magic Type: Caster - Solitary
Description:
Born as a rich kid, he could have anything he ever wanted. And he did. But after he discovered that he could turn into a cute black cat by accident and nearly giving his babysitter a heartattack, he grew tired of such life. He could not only turn into a curious cat that wanted to explore, but he became one. He found himself enjoying not only exploration of the unknown, but also taking things that weren't his... until he took them. They tried to teach him better, but eventually he ran away in a fit of rage, never to be seen again.
It didn't take long for him to realise what he had thrown himself into, but he was too stubborn to go back and cry at his parents' feet. They were never there when he needed them, wanted them to be to begin with. But shadows... Those were always there once the sun set and he could take whatever he desired in peace. He started small. Soon he was picking out the juiciest targets. Along the way he found himself awake during the night for most of the time. He learned how to live with the shadows, blending into them. And his inner magical powers grew as time went by.
He was bewildered at first, unsure as to what was going on. But he trained and with time he felt as if maybe he had become a shadow himself. These powers gave him an immense edge when he was prowling around at night or stalking new potential donators for his pockets. By then his personality and lifestyle changed - just as the ways he went about thieving. But the shadows... those never changed.
Perry's magic at its core is about using shadows, void and darkness to either blast enemies with raw damage or slowly burn them down with strategically placed spells. He also uses the powers to make himself invisible to the naked eye, though more experienced enemies will have little trouble finding out where he is. But with the way Perry thinks, even if one knows where he is, they cannot be absolutely sure about what is going to happen next. Perry had to be resourceful, thus his magic contains a bit of everything, so that he could be self-sufficient. Though he focuses more on controlling the battlefield with various traps, AOE spells and illusions, while he himself messes around them. Hopefully curiosity won't kill this cat.
✻ D Rank - Black Cat - Perry possesses an innate ability to transform into a black cat at will. He had this ability for as long as he remembers. While in the cat form, Perry's magical signature is slightly dimmed and he can enjoy the perks of having cat-like reflexes and agility. However, on the other hand, he is unable to use any spells, other than turning back to human form. While a normal person would not know that the cat was Perry, those who know him better would be able to tell, as the eye colour is the same in both of his forms. Perry also needs to be careful with his behaviour while in the cat form, if he is to fool smarter people.
✻ B Rank - Night Owl - Perry has spent too many sleepless nights outside, thieving his life away. Thanks to this, his body became accustomed to the darkness and light of the moon. Perry's sight is not hindered by lack of light and his other senses are heightened during nighttime. He is also able to use the darkness to its nigh full effect to blend in it, making it much harder for others to notice him in the dark during the night. Loses its effect when Perry is in the light and the ability does not affect his magic signature.
- Vanishing Step:
Name: Vanishing Step
Rank: User's current rank
Type: Shadow - Burst
Effect: None
Range: 25m
Speed: 25m/s
Duration: 3 posts
Downside: Halved range to gain invisibility effect
Description: Perry briefly imbues himself with shadow energy and hops a short distance to avoid an incoming attack or spell. Upon landing and only upon landing he vanishes into a puff of smoke, making him invisible. He is still able to make noise and attract attention that way and invisibility doesn't mask his magical signature. While he is invisible he gains Truesight ability - to see silhouettes of enemies behind walls within the user's rank burst range. If Perry casts a spell or transforms into a cat while invisible, the effects end immediately, regardless of their remaining duration.

Description: Perry coats his body in a thin veil of darkness that allows him to pass through solid, inanimate object, such as tables or walls. If he passes through a object the darkness envelops him and grows thicker, healing his wounds a little bit. Perry cannot use spells while he is phasing through an object, but if he uses a spell while the effect is active and not phasing, the effect is immediately cancelled, regardless of the remaining duration.

Description: Perry conjures a bit of void and molds it into a peculiar stick-like object. He then tosses it and the void stick latches onto any solid surface.

Description: Perry conjures a shadowy smoke around his right arm and points at a target. The smoke then promptly travels down from his arm and along the ground in the appointed direction.
