Name: Cassius Mordane
Age: 18
Race: Mix Blood
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Tempermental - Grey to Black
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 175 lbs.
Occupation: Adventurer

Personality: Cass is quite adventuresome. He has a natural curiosity and a desire to experience new things. Due to his Mix Blood background, he believes himself to be open-minded, not willing to take things at face value, and willing to delve into deeper knowledge of people and things that attract his attention.

Cass also enjoys using his charisma. He knows he is what some people consider charming, and he likes to live up to expectations. And for those who disagree, he enjoys winning them over to his side.

Markedly intelligent, he enjoys learning new things and accomplishing feats that he estimates may fall within his abilities.
The one attribute that he does not display is that he is cunning. Cass is able to take many complex concepts and put them together to reveal hidden truths.


Appearance: Cass stands 5 feet 6 inches tall and moves the the grace of an elf. His body, rather than being lithe, is solid with well defined muscles like a dwarf. His hair is black as night and his eyes are the tempermental kind, ranging from the lightest of grey to the darkest of black.

History: When his parents did of the winter plague well over a decade ago, Cass was left to the care of his "uncles." The first uncle owned the Riverside Tavern in Scara Brae. The second uncle owned the Streetside Tavern in Scara Brae. All his other "uncles" were the constant patrons of both taverns. Through their tutelage, Cass grew into what was considered, byt the lot of them, as a well-rounded individual. Having seen his 18th birthday, Cass has decided to see what more rounding the world has to offer.

Abilities:

Empathic Attraction - Cass can select a target (or targets) and begin to broadcast a sense of empathy within them. If the target is unresistant to the attraction, then they have a favorable and friendly view toward Cass. If the target is resistant, but not hostile, then they will ignore the empathic broadcast completely. Hostile individuals have, so far, been completely unresponsive and unaware of any inclinations toward empathy. Those with strong will powers can resist or be immune to his suggestions.

Empathic Repulsion - Cass can select a target (or targets) and begin to broadcast a sense of repulsion in regards to being near Cass. If the target is initially of the friendly persuasion, they will have a sense that Cass is not to be bothered at the moment. If the target is of a neutral persuasion, they will have a sense of unease of being near Cass (within 10 feet). If the target is of a hostile persuasion, they will have a sense of being intimidated at being near Cass (with 10 feet). Those with strong will powers can resist or be immune to his suggestions.

Intuition - Cass has a strong intuition that warns him 5 seconds prior to an immediate surprise or initial attack. This includes each separate initial or surprise attack from multiple attackers, but not any subsequent attacks from sources already enaged in combat. (Limited to once per foe per fight.)


Equipment:

-One Iron Long Sword
-Two Iron Fighting Chains (10 feet each)
-Full Body Leather Armor
-Hooded Cloak

Hello and welcome to the site! I like your character so far, but we have a few things to talk shop over.

I need you to add in to both Empathic abilities that those with strong will powers can resist or be immune to his suggestions. As for intuition, does this mean he can sense every attack? Give me some examples on how this would be used please.

If you have any issues please feel free to Pm me, or drop into the chat and ask around!

So your clairvoyance only works once a foe per fight, correct?

Yes, that is correct. I will add in that specific wording. The ability may expand with experience, but for base level is limited as so.

Alrighty! Sorry about the wait! Holidays and illness took me down for a little bit, but I'm gonna go ahead and approve you! Just be careful not to powergame that foresight ability!
