General Description :: Reaper is a tall, well built stallion with lots of leg. His Thoroughbred influence gave him his height and thin leg structure as well as his speed. The paint influence gave him his markings and gave his lanky frame a little more bulk. While his body suggests that he may be strong, he seems to lack in that department. He makes up for it with his quick-witted mind and speed.

Location :: Derenta
Rank :: healer
Reputation :: Reaper is a huge dick, and everyone knows it. Most try to avoid him when they can, for his sharp tongue has caught more than a few. For this reason, he doesn't have friends and generally prefers to keep it that way. The only time anyone really comes around him is when they need healing. He's a badass healer and he knows it. He takes his job very seriously and even considers himself the best. Whether that is true or not is up to those willing to be taken care of by him.

Magic Type :: darkness
Secondary Magic :: earth, light
Level :: advanced ; 110
Description :: Reaper is a very determined stallion and worked tirelessly from when his magic was awakened to become the best he could be. He is still constantly training (when not on his healer duties) and hopes to become as powerful as possible. Reaper has the ability to manipulate shadows. While still in his younger stages, he was only able to manipulate his own, but as he advanced he could use the shadows of others. Now at an advanced level, Reaper is able to not only manipulate his shadow and the shadows of others but create his own shapes and even make them tangible. Of course this takes a huge toll on him and can only be used in short bursts or when absolutely necessary. Making the shadows tangible is extremely difficult and is something he's still working on improving. Reaper uses his knowledge with earth magic to manipulate gravity. He can make things "heavier" or "lighter" as well as repel objects. He started out only on himself but has progressed to being able to manipulate the gravities of objects around him. Due to his being a healer, Reaper has also had to learn a few light magic tricks in order to better heal his patients. He prefers not to use it, as it takes a lot of effort and doesn't feel natural to him.

P E R S O N A L I T Y }
{ sarcastic | bitter | possessive | egocentric | malevolent }
[ sarcastic ]
Reaper has a sharp tongue and uses his words as knives to take everyone down. He's quick witted and always has something clever to say. He's also very observant and uses that to his advantage. He's a nasty one to get into a word war with.
[ bitter ]
Although he is a healer, Reaper is incredibly bitter. He has no real care for anyone and has a truly black soul. He lacks any compassion for others.
[ possessive ]
Reaper is incredibly possessive. If he sees something he wants, he'll go for it and do what he can to have it. On the off chance that Reaper ever makes a friend, he'll protect them with his own being. He does what he can to know everything possible about them and often gets jealous when others try talking to them.
[ egocentric ]
Reaper takes great pride in his work as a healer and considers himself the best in the Verensa herd. Though he is quite dark and does not care much for others, he does take his job extremely seriously and is completely determined to do it right. He knows how good he is at it and thinks of himself very highly.
[ malevolent ]
This stallion is rotten to the core and completely evil. He loves seeing the injured herd members coming to him and will milk their pain in every way possible. It hasn't been uncommon for him to set little traps to hurt others, just to see them limping over and asking for his help. There's truly something messed up in his mind, and the only he gets and stronger his magic becomes, the worse it gets. Lately, he's begun hearing little snippets from a voice inside him mind, but it's generally only happened when he's exhausted. So far. Either way, pain is his friend.
H I S T O R Y }
{ Birth and Foalhood }
From birth, Reaper's parents had a nightmare on their hands. Being both earth magic users, they had expected a foal with similar talents, however this colt completely shocked them. From such a young age, Reaper showed how truly awful he was. When playing with the other foals, he would often go out of his way to harm them. They began isolating him, but the young colt was completely happy by himself, trampling over flowers and the like instead. He was generally difficult to handle, and his parents struggled with him. Unfortunately, his mother became ill and passed before he could reach his true potential, leaving his father to finish raising him.
{ Adolescent/Teenager }
Reaper grew quickly, having outgrown his scrawny, leggy foal stage. He still wasn't favored among anyone, and he was often whispered about. The young colt ignored these and instead focused on getting stronger. He wanted to be as ready as possible when it was his turn to have his curse awakened. His father was embarrassed of the monster and often ignored him, giving him little to no attention and essentially disowning him. This stirred a hate in the young stallion, though he decided that he could do nothing about it.
Around the age of three it was determined that Reaper was ready. He had matured quite a bit and had become good at hiding his temper. Of course, Reaper chose his own death. He wanted to die a painful death where he could suffer. He had his throat sliced and allowed himself to bleed out. Once the curse woke, Reaper felt as powerful as ever, and he was hungry for more. He immediately began training for hours on end, determined to have more of this darkness.
When the time came for him to choose a rank, Reaper shocked everyone with the decision to become a Healer. He had remembered the way his mother looked when she had fallen ill and how helpless he had been. While doubtful, the request was accepted. From then on, Reaper dedicated himself to become the best Healer possible. He wanted to feel valued and important to the herd. When he wasn't training to become a Healer, he trained in his magic. Reaper was an extremely restless soul.
{ Adult }
Not much has changed for Reaper, other than his leveling up his magic skill and becoming (in his mind) the best Healer in the herd, even surpassing his mentor. As he's grown, not much has changed, including his restlessness. He hardly ever settles down and is still trying to increase his ability to manipulate shadows.
More to be added as needed.
;n; this took forever. I hope I got everything right. I did a LOT of research and yeah. I'm still a little confused on some stuff but oh well xD The writing is a little thin, but I haven't much time and I think it's a lot easier to see his personality through rp.
so have some Reaper

We apologize for the inconvienience, but some admins have accidently accepted your application even though there are still errors in it. We now took the time to count them off. Again, this is a very uncomfortable situation and we deeply apologize for the inconvience of this.
Magic: While the explanation is flawless we nevetheless ask how he does use this magic for healing. For healers it is important to use their magic to heal wounds, since herbs have their limits. And yes, dark magic is usable for healing. Like sealing illnesses away to one part of the body, etc. Still it is a destructive magic in nature, so it is difficult to use it for healing. We recommend to let him have some abilities in light magic as well, since he most probably would have been taught that in training. Light magic is the prefered magic for healing. c: Also, a secondary (elemental) magic is missing from description. We recommend earth magic since you said that it runs in the family. Such things are often inherited. c:
Story: Three years is MUCH too young to be allowed the curse. We are aware that Lilafly's character Jason got hat priviledge, but that had more something to do with his parents having a big influence in the herd and a way of blackmailing the leader (happens in the best families too :I). This is somethign that usually does not happen. Like ever. We recommend choosing the age of 5 years. This is the normal age for which the appreciation ceremony is allowed. c:
other than those two, no other errors could be found! ^w^ You did an excellent job with researching and also showing how his magic influences him. Great job on that! c: Anyway we ask you to correct these two points. c:

Not an inconvenience at all. I assumed something would have been wrong :'D
So he can have dark magic.. light magic and earth magic? I'm reaaaally confused on this magic thing and how it works.
I based his awakening on other members that had been accepted already aha. Someone else had the ceremony at 3 and there are some that had it at 4 so I just thought that was okay OTL
If I move his awakening back to five years, is his magic level still going to be able to stay the same?

Mereldia-Keepers In reply to FallenClockwork [2015-12-28 16:50:18 +0000 UTC]
as to magic, his main magic will be and stay dark magic. This secondary magic is just the elemental kind he is then closest to, which would be earth.
all other magic types are not impossible for him to master though. he can learn a spell or two (or seveal for that matter) from other magic kinds too, but he will never be very good in them. Especially not in light magic, since that goes against his nature of darkness. his spells will be weak, but it will be manageable anyway. c:
wait, who got it at 3 other than Jason? Larina needs to know (totally not gave away the identity of my nitpicking self here, hahahahaha XDDD) and a few have it at four. The latter is RARE, but possible. But for some reason because I said that in some rare cases it is possible that the ceremony is at the age of 4 (because seriously, which human child is mature with 10 years of age!? I cannot name you a single one! but it happens) they thought that it is kind of a rule and I guess it is because they do not want to change their characters to be powerful at a young age already (which is silly if you ask me. Older characters are awesome too. we only have young sports here :'D). but yeah. I had a personal limit list and now I will make the ceremony only available at age 5 earliest. we cannot have the whole herd be a talentful exception after all! (oh, how I HATE population limits and percentages in RPGs, they make stuff VERY complicated for a nitpicker like me)
when you move it to five years, he will have 2 years less of training, which will also make his magic level lower. At best you look at the level sheet again and find out which level he would then have c: sta.sh/01cspzqodn74

FallenClockwork In reply to Mereldia-Keepers [2015-12-28 17:05:50 +0000 UTC]
Okay, I'll have to go back and change all of that. Will he be able to perform earth types of magic then? Like the gravity thing or just simple earth manipulations?
Uum I believe it was Khayal? ^^'
But, see, I'm also very confused about the magic system because everyone seems to have something different. This one character has a magic level at 90 and says is s-class, but according to your chart it would only be considered advanced. So I don't know if I'm doing it wrong or ;n; Since his awakening would be at 5.. he'd have 9 years which would allow him to have a magic level between 105 and 110.. right? And that's considered advanced?
I also thought about making him older since a ton of the characters seem to be youngins' but I'm not entirely sure OTL

considering that he had his training and all, he will be able to also master a little harder types of earth magic. the thing that makes the magic system so complicated is that there is no clear example for each magic, but that the possebilities are sheer endless in how it can express. Now imagine how much the earth as a natural force is imprtant and how many things it manipulates, in how many forms it can show and in how many forms it is connected to other elements. For example: when a character with earth magic learns a heating spell (fire magic) and improves this heating spell alone, they could use it to create lav, since lava is fluid stone. Stones count to earth magic. But it is more than just stones. it is dirt and plantlife as well. when your character is more on the life-side of things, they might elarn to manipulate plants with simple water or light spells. Air is the counterpart to earth, which makes it hardest to combine these two. additionally an earth mage will have immense problems with learning a a spell that is connected to air magic.
In Reaper's case, he would have most problems with light and air magic. And even though he will be able to learn fire and water spells, those will still be a foreign magic type for him, which will give him some trouble. Imagine those as foreign languages if you want and the magic of darkness and earth as the mother language and the second language you learned fluently. like I speak german and english, but still miss some vocabulary in english, Reaper also can handle darkness and earth, but has not reached the full extent of the latter yet. Spells from other magic kinds are then like lerning some random words and/or phrases of a different language like french or spanish, which are form a completely different language route. He will have more trouble with learnign those. And Air magic and light magic is like chinese or japanese for him, where not just the language, but also the way it is written and used is foreign to him and where he would have to learn everything from scratch.
I think this is the best way to compare it. While I am aware that it is possible to learn multiple languages with time, with magic it is and stays impossible to master all elements perfectly. This is an ability only the extinct sidhe could manage (royal fae).
I hope the comparisons made this more clear.
and yes, that is correct. 9 years of training will let him have a level that probably lies between 105 and 110 and yes, that is advanced. c:
as for the levels of advanced or s-class, etc.: we only recently changed the levels for that so that there are differences between mortals, caspanas and fae now. The ones who still have s-class or somehting like that written on their applications probably refered to the old system where everything was measured by mortal levels. so do not worry, you've got it right! c:
if you make him older, make sure to also adjust his magic level to his new age then. ^w^
