Name: Filan Fyretracker

Age: 340 years(appears in his mid 20s to anyone who doesnt know his true age)

Height: 6ft not counting distance to ear tips

Weight: 190lbs

Body Type: Athletic

Physical Condition: Can be agile but is not the best trained in traditional combat.

Skin Color: Blue with hints of purple

Eyes: Purplish hue as far as anybody knows due to the natural glow.

Hair: Reddish brown and long, with two thick sets coming down the front of the ears and the rest down his back.

General Facts: Born 340 years ago in Raven City on the planet Dysprosia Filan was born into a shipping family. It is and was his legacy to take command of one of the great elf sky ships, Mostly due to the fact that it was a dying industry and very few even wanted to fly the long haul ships anymore.

At about age 20 he joined the flight and command program where over the course of 80 years he had to endure massive amounts of time in the grand observitories where his mind was quite litterally remapped with that of the universe as well as giving him the ability to see the traveling currents he guides his ship along while in FTL. Where a typical human just sees the stars and planets Filan and other ship captains can see actual currents of space time and this is how he directs his ship into the sub dimensional layer aka "Portal Space" for FTL travel. About a month after turning 100 he was Bonded with the Hyperion, his ship. the Bonding process is quite painful but once completeled an elf is able to be in complete concert with their vessel to the point of a stage of link up rarely seen and as such unknown how much it is used where the pilot mentally becomes one with his ship.

Filan was happy in his new role in life and was doing moderately well running the Hyperion as a cruise ship, This is where he met Eline who would soon become his wife and mother of their two kids, Nalif and Viktor. They had a Condo near the Raven City Dockyards and that is where the family tended to live most of the time. Everything changed for Filan 200 years later, it was the ending of refit season. every 100 years all ships are recalled to the home world for a complete strip down and refit. The Hyperion was one of the first ones out, Filan and Naline his mechanic took the ship out of the system for engine testing of the new engines. Strict safety rules kept his family from joining the ride, due to the long life span of the elves birth rates where fairly low and as such rules existed to help prevent an entire family from being wiped out.


Disaster hit at 19:30hrs, Filan was getting ready for sleep and made a subspace link to home to wish his family a goodnight when there was a massive energy surge in the sun in the homesystem. the link went dead. Filan executed an emergency FTL jump but on arrival he found no life signs and no signals, all that remained where lifeless cities. his species had been wiped out by an unknown force. Two years later another hard blow when Naline was killed by sky pirates leaving him in his current status, completely alone.


Abilities:
Lightning Projection: this is his basic magic, he can project lightning over short ranges but it is devestating to most biological and mechanical enemies.

Power Crystals: Filan keeps a myrad of power crystals that are used in devices such as his energy rifle or simply thrown like a human grenade. their effects can be determined by color of the glow. he can recharge them with his own magic or off his ship's power core

Mechanics: Naline was a good teacher to him over the 202 years she served as his mechanic, he can repair or jerry rig almost anything technical.(think of him like Sam Carter, only male and an alien elf)

Mind Link: Filan can like with his ship when in the captains chair, allowing him to basically be the ship. it is amazing in combat but its flaw is he is totally vulnerable to someone attacking him physically should they get on to the ship itself.

Weaknessses:
Physical combat: Filan is strong but he is not a fighter, he is a freighter pilot. he could kick your butt in any flying machine vs flying machine fight but on the ground he is not that potent.

Anti-Magic fields: Sky Elves are highly magical in everything they do including their own bodies due to simple biology and exposure to the constant magic currents of the world they came from. as such AM fields can actually make him weak and tired. they also disable or greatly diminish his tech toys including the ship itself if the field is strong enough. Filan will slowly regerate his magic if able to escape the field long enough, or sleep or can instantly recharge of he can get to his ship and jump into portal space.

I'm not there yet, but what would you think if I used Filan in the story I'm writing? If it's fine, I'd like to RP the scene to make sure I get your ship specs, personality traits, and how'd they effect the scenario right.

(Filan is zooming across space when he comes across a spaceship inhabited by the Zybrox, evil pink-and-purple zebra-striped teddy bears with claws and whose tounges are replaced with a green human-like arm that terminate in anatomically-correct hand, who started life as a genetic experiment. He is about to pass them by when his sensors (does he even have sensors like this?) indicate that they have a prisoner - a tiny humanoid.)

uhm sure you can borrow him, just primary rule when I lend him out is neither him or his ship can be destroyed.

And yes his ship has sensors, but it is not overly well armed save for two forward firing cannons.

He's basically going to rescue their prisoner and return her to Earth - just in time to be caught up in the invasion the Zybrox are performing. Eventually learns that the Zybrox were a genetic experiment BY HIS OWN SPECIES, and this info makes him decide that he should help the mixed-human/tiny group who plans on sabotaging the Zybrox' ships by being their conveyance.

His people would never create such things. So if by his species they would have had to be a rogue black ops project. Possibly coming from a lab ship gone rogue after the government of his people discovered their plans a canceled the ship's funding.

Thanks and honestly even that profile is not fully up to date. him and his ship are in dire need of an update.

Ah, understood, but it remains the same. Not often one sees magic interwoven with sweet tech

Filanwizard In reply to Z-Storyteller [2012-04-19 21:31:01 +0000 UTC]

well generally many just dislike the idea of such. However could be interesting if meeting someone who strictly uses magic, seeing even a pulse rifle that is pumped by crystals imbued with lightning magic. They might sense magic in use but see a weapon of technology. would certainly throw them for a loop.

wonders what he would think of Pell when he finds out she's a power source for lightning and time magic.

well at least one of her abilities would not effect him if she thought she could play a nifty prank while Filan was holding a railing.(something Filan would actually do to someone LOL, send a small but harmless charge up a railing LOL)

filiasan In reply to Filanwizard [2011-03-14 07:43:20 +0000 UTC]

hopefully not electric! she could summon her healing wings with that charge then! lol
it's her hidden special attack, it can gust and blow large objects away

does he have a charged skill/special?
and good morning

she only plays pranks on Philly

when we're not so busy can we rp?

Filanwizard In reply to filiasan [2011-03-14 07:47:34 +0000 UTC]

Sure we can RP but I am heading to sleep, its almost 4am here in US-Eastern Time.

right now he has no real super charged attacks. he uses his magic, uses weapons(small to large guns or a polearm). he generally only has stuff for self defense.

his primary combat is usually never seeing an actual living enemy, but is ship to ship. he has engaged targets in his ship as far as 1000km away. But since time is fluid when using Notes we can always RP that way sometime.

Id say his special would be when he has a rare weapon from his home world, its the Man Portable Plasma Mortar.(its like an Elven BFG)

Filanwizard In reply to TinyFeatherpants [2011-02-21 04:35:23 +0000 UTC]

general magic fields, he can sense that sort of thing. its handy when meeting someone strange as he can tell if they are a magic user. should they become hostile he knows they will attack with more than just guns/melee weapons.

yea it is, he has a few dark points not shown in the Bio. they can sneak out in RPs though. lets just say he seems like a nice guy but his closet is far from free of undead of the skeletal varity XD.

Ah, this makes it a bit easier to understand him a bit more now, by the way, not sure why I haven't done this sooner, maybe because I'm usually RPing on the phone and all but you got my watch!

Filanwizard In reply to maelstrom14 [2011-02-11 05:17:51 +0000 UTC]

LOL thanks for the watch. I used to RP on the phone but DA Moble version seems to drop them now. like times I replied to your RP with me and it never shows up. Hopefully the last one from I think yesterday arrived.
