Note: I'll be cannibalizing one of my other characters, giving half his EXP to Todd to bump him up to Level 3.

Name: "Sweetie" Todd Arwise
Age: 23
Race: Human
Hair Color: Pink
Eye Color: Deep blue
Height: 6'0
Weight: 165 lbs.
Occupation: Journeyman Candymancer

Appearance: Todd's physique can be simply described as tall and toned. He's fit, but not muscular; a fact made apparent by his tight-fitting white slacks, white suit vest, and sky blue button-up dress shirt (an ensemble that, for some magical reason, never seems to get dirty with the dust from his many travels). His outfit is completed by a pair of white leather boots, a small peppermint swirl brooch on his vest, and a pure-white traveler's hooded cloak. The candymancer is devilishly handsome and blemish-free, with sharp facial features, ravishing blue eyes, and a captivating smile that displays his impossibly white teeth. His hair is naturally pink and slightly curly, giving off the illusion that he's wearing a cotton candy wig. His voice is as sweet as the sugar-based spells he spins, although it's a little higher in pitch than he would prefer at his age--more than once has his voice cracked when trying to make an impassioned statement.

Personality: Todd Arwise can simply be described as "good". He's a charismatic charmer, able to sweet-talk most people that he comes across. He's quick-witted and intelligent, kind and selfless. He's always looking to help others around him, and will rarely lash out in aggression (unless he's teased about his hair just a little too much).

Skills:

Blunt weapons - Todd's choice of weaponry is his steel mace, which he as confectionat--er, affectionately named "Gobstopper". He is adept at fighting with a mace.

Hand-to-hand combat - Sometimes, a solid hunk of steel is a little too cumbersome; it is during those times that Todd is forced to use fisticuffs. He has above average skill in this regard.

Speed - Todd can move twice as fast as a normal, fit human.

Abilities:

Candy Dots - By putting his hands six inches from each other and concentrating hard enough, Todd is able to summon a swirling cloud containing several dozen multicolored candy dots. Each of these dots has steel-like properties. Once fully summoned, the candy dots can be propelled forth at a hundred and fifty feet per second. The cloud spreads out in a cone roughly seven feet in diameter once released.

Rock Candy - At any given time, Todd is able to create enough rock candy to coat half of his body with a layer that's two inches thick, or create a candy construct up to ten pounds heavy. The rock candy has the defensive strength, weight, and density of damascus, and is brittle. While it will deflect bladed attacks with ease, it cannot stand up to magical and blunt physical trauma.

Cotton Candy - From his fingertips, Todd is able to spin a web of incredibly sticky cotton candy, which can be used to bind items together like glue or trip up and otherwise foil the attacks of his aggressors. The cotton candy will melt when contact is made with water, and otherwise has the physical strength of standard rope.

Finishers - Todd has access to a list of ultimate techniques. Only one can be used per thread or battle, as the process of using one is incredibly draining on him. Should he

Sugar Rush - For the duration of two posts, Todd has six times the speed of a normal human, twice his physical strength, and half of his normal physical endurance.
Candy Crush - By focusing all of his energy into his hands, Todd can summon a giant jawbreaker six feet in diameter that weighs half a ton once it is unleashed. The jawbreaker is as hard as steel.


History - ((This will be added as Todd levels up. His history will be detailed in a solo.))

Equipment of note:

Gobstopper - A mace that measures 23 inches in length and is topped by a plain steel ball. The metal shaft is painted white, with a dark leather grip. The steel head is decorated with red, yellow, and cyan candy swirls.
His outfit, as described above.
A leather traveling satchel

Just confirming that this is the profile I'd like to sacrifice for the EXP boost.

You're clocking in a bit too powerful for a level 3 character. The easiest way to fix it would be to drop the speed boost from "Sugar Rush" to 3x his normal speed (or 6x the speed of a normal human). 16x a normal human due to his innate 2x increase is WAY too much, even for higher levels.

I'll also take care of the reincarnation after you've updated your profile.

Oh dang, the speed stacking never occurred to me. It's fixed now.

No worries, it looks good now.

You're approved!

I also took care of the reincarnation.
