Name: Jornaal
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Birthday: 11/13
Sexuality: Straight
Special Characteristics: Jornaal has a burn on the left side of his face from a fire that has left him completely blind.
Personality: Jornaal is a shy child who needs a little prodding when it comes to making friends or even striking up a conversation. After the accident, he has begun learning the practice of second sight, strengthening all of his other senses to replace the one he has lost. He still has a long way to go before completely mastering his second sight; Jornaal does not like to talk about the incident, even though it's the first thing that people ask him when they first meet him. He is a smart boy who loves to listen to the stories of wizards battles, aspiring to become one of those great wizards whose story is told throughout all generations. So he trains harder than most would expect out of him, never giving up and never giving in. He loves to explore his surroundings, which tend to get him in trouble most of the time. Whether it's stumbling into a private office or the girls' bathroom (which only happened one time). He tends to wander to various places, mainly because he gets bored really easily.The reason he wants to travel around the world so badly is because he wants to be as far away from his home as possible. He has become angered by his sudden blindness and chooses traveling to distract, and essentially blind, himself from his reality. He keeps this anger on a steady level, refusing to let get the best of him. He tries to keep himself optimistic, despite such circumstances.
In battle, Jornaal makes sure to observe all of his surroundings, letting his senses take over and studying the battlefield with his mind's eye. He makes sure to study his opponent, noting all of their weakness's, and coming up with the best strategy in defeating his opponent. From studying his surroundings, Jornaal makes sure he knows of all the strong points in the area that he can maneuver easily around to perform a successful counter attack after a graceful dodge. He tries to remain calm but his emotions can get the better of him as the battle goes on. He's the quiet type, focusing more on strategy than psyching his opponent out with witty banter, not that he can't pull out a smart one-liner or two. Taking more of a defensive stance, Jornaal waits patiently for his opponent to come within his range before making his attack. He never chooses to attack head on, always allowing his opponent to make that mistake first is all the better in all of his strategies. He almost resembles a toad since he makes his stance as low to the ground as possible; this helps his reflexes prepare to strike quickly in almost any direction in a full circle radius. He has a staff that he uses to walk with that also acts as an extended arm. He uses his staff to conserve magical energy; it might do less damage than a magical pole, but it has saved his life from time to time.
