Originally she was a full vampire but through research on herself she had managed to take away half of the curse, she does not crave blood nor does she have any vampiric abilities, but she still can not be outside in the light and holy water stings her. With her research still needing aid as well as funds, she decided the school was a great place to teach others how to properly conduct necromancy as well as what not to do, thus not repeating history, as well as continue her work on curing vampirism completely.

Although she is used to not wearing much if any clothing at home with her giant father. Her hair she keeps short as to not have a chance for someone to use it against her in battle, and she'll occasionally wear tight bands on her arms, wrists and legs that are laced with healing magic on days where her muscles are sore. She stands at 6 foot tall and weighs around 200 pounds of mostly muscle
Basic Backstory - Born to a Giant father and human mother, Ketvir has learned the intricacies of humanity as well as the savagery of the giant kind. Although her father was against it in the beginning, her mother managed to enroll Ketvir into the magic academy sine giants have a natural talent with geomancy. She still tends to keep her giant ways with how she dresses, but the way she talks and acts are very much human. She's a bubbly girl who forgets her own strength, but loves to talk to anyone, everyone and tends to make friends quickly, which she will probably need since she isn't into studying as much as she is into her workout regimen.

[Alias]

Appearance - Standing at 5'7'', he has black hair and brown eyes. He wears a simple white shirt and black cargo pants. He wears a belt that contains different tools for working with machines and, sometimes, some personal belongings like pocket change and some snacks.

Basic Backstory - Robert grew up in a fairly normal household. His parents owned a small store known as the 'Newmaker's spare parts and repair shop'. This shop specialized on repairing and selling parts for steam-powered machines. Because of spending most of his childhood in this shop, surrounded by strange devices with many moving parts, his innate curiosity and desire to learn how things worked grew over time.
One afternoon, they found a small pocketbook on the floor. They assumed that it belonged to one of their customers and must've accidentally misplaced it. Instead of throwing it out, his parents decided to keep it safe in case they come back. Curious of what's written inside, Robert decided to open the book to see what's inside. It contained some basic aeromancy spells and simplified explanation of the magical theory behind these spells. Seeing it as a challenge, Robert decided to attempt trying to cast one of the spells.
After two weeks of trial and error and after making his own magical focus, he managed to cast one spell - Jumpstart. It was at the same time when the customer who left the pocketbook came back to the shop to retrieve it. After finding out that Robert learned how to cast a spell without any professional supervision, she decided to introduce herself. She's a professor from a magic school known as the 'Dawnmoor School of the Arcane Arts' and she's inviting him to study there. At first, his parents were having reservations with sending their only son to study somewhere far. But seeing Robert's enthusiasm and not wanting to stop him from taking this once in a lifetime opportunity, they decided to let him do what he wants on the condition that he writes them a letter twice a month. With his parent's blessings, Robert packs up for a journey north.
To Castle Dawnmoor.

[Astralworks]

Name - Annasari Eden
Age - 16
Race - Half avian

Year (1-4) - 2
School of Magic - Animancy
Arcane Focus (item through which they channel their magic; can be pretty much anything) -

Spoiler: Large Folding Silk Hand Fan.

Appearance - Vertically superior, this winged lad stands at a smug six-feet-four-inches. He has long blue hair, pinprick ochre eyes, and a light complexion carrying his experience on the waters. His wingspan is around his height, and so they don't get in the way he started wearing more clothing; an inside shirt with holes for the extra appendages, then a jacket to hide them. This stupid habit has become a part of him, so much so that he'll have these "moments" where he needs to escape. They're markings on his right arm detailing a magic circle riddled with storm-related symbols, and across his back is the name "Black Swan" in runic-language. Long pants are his bread and butter, sandals being the plate. Monsoon, the name of the giant fan, is usually seen hovering at his side, or appearing to be attached to his back. Otherwise, he's almost never seen without it.

Spoiler: Reference Image!

Basic Backstory - Annasari was the product of a high spirited harpy witch, and a volatile fight-hungry pirate. His childhood was fun for the most part, although any sane parent would shout not, the small family did enjoy all their time spent together; dangerous adventures across the sea, deeds of crime and bouts of heroism, party after party. For them every day was a party. Until that heartbreaking day came where the harpy disappeared. Annasari and his father were abandoned by his mother, and what made this even more devastating for the older man were the soiled plans of marriage. His father was actually considering being bound eternally to that woman, and as a boy capable of understanding those feelings, Annasari started doing what he could for the man.

Out on the rough waters one draining night, the duo discovered the sunken ship of some upper-class noble probably nearly a hundred years old, or dead. Further investigation caused a confrontation between the two seamen and a sea-monster. They were no match for the beast, but the myriad of treasure and trinkets tucked neatly below were priority one in that instant. All odds defied, two survivors made off with what they could before heading back to land. This marked a successful victory, and the spoils had them set for life! Later down the road the father started his own business, putting the pirate life behind him for the transportation of goods, people, and even creatures alike. Meanwhile, Annasari settled for controlling his mystical gifts, and there was no better place to do that than Dawnmoor.

School of Magic - Geomancy

Appearance - 6'2" Skeleton with Blackness and little red dots for where his pupils should be. He usually wears nothing, but on entry of the campus he equipped a cloak so that his appearance didn't cause a ruckus.
Basic Backstory - He awoke on a cold December afternoon, he was surrounded by the corpses if what seemed like necromancers. They were in a lack luster formation around a summoning circle which Odysseus was in the center of. When he stood up he found that he could speak from his first words, "Man is stinks in here." The fact he also couldn't remember his name nor anything from a past life troubled him making him pace around a bit. After stumbling around the bodies he found a slip of paper smeared with blood on it which wrote Odysseus with an assortment of runic lettering accompanying it. "That, right there is a name," after some thinking he decided to bequeath himself the name Odysseus. The corpses of the necromancers disturbed him so he decided to leave the room to find him outside stepping on snow in a field with the door he just came out of no where in sight. He was stranded in a snowy field, with nowhere to go he decided to move West. He encountered some wild animals along the way which he swiftly ran away because he had accidentally used the spell Tremor to scare the animals. "Hm Geo magic, wait how do I know about that," contemplating on how he knew the existence of magic he unknowingly walked into a town. Where he was met with guards and citizen screaming "MONSTER" at him. When the guards unsheathed their swords that's when he knew he had to get out of there. Thanks to his new found Geomancy he was able to book it out of there with a makeshift earthquake. After running for a bit he found a board which had a peculiar poster on it. It read "Got talent for one of the Great Schools of Magic? Then come on down to Dawnmoor School of the Arcane Arts where we will show you your Destiny!" Basking in the corniness of the poster Odysseus oddly felt motivated to go to the school to maybe find out what anything about him is. So headed off, the poster didnt really didnt dictate a direction to go so he just went with his nonexistent gut. After almost 8 months of searching he was finally able to find the city in which the school was located. With his handy cloak he decided to apply. ]
