Backstory


















powers.











Telekinesis



taken





The ability to manipulate objects with the power of the mind, allowing witches to move or levitate people and things without physically touching them. This seems to be the most common power, as it has been displayed by many witches and warlocks, and can be used offensively and defensively. ( kevin kevin )










Chlorokinesis



open





The ability to mentally and/or physically summon, control and manipulate plants and vegetation. Witches and warlocks with this ability can control and manipulate wood, vines, plants, moss, and parts of plants, such as leaves, seeds, roots, fruits, and flowers.










Pyrokinesis



open





The ability to create, control, and manipulate fire with the power of the mind.










Resurgence



open





The magical ability to resurrect oneself and other individuals from death. Unlike Vitalum Vitalis, which requires a witch or warlock to give up part of their soul to restore a person or animal to perfect health, resurgence works by a witch or warlock reaching into the space between life and death, drawing a soul back from the precipice of the afterlife before restoring it to the deceased's body.










Black Widow



open





The magical ability to induce brain aneurysms during sexual intercourse. Individuals who have died and were resurrected are immune to this power.










Illusion Manipulation



open





The magical ability to create and manipulate illusions, causing others to see, hear, touch, smell, and/or taste things that do not exist, or cause them to perceive things differently from what they truly are.










Clairvoyance



open





The magical ability to read the minds of others and project one's thoughts into them, also known as Telepathy.










Lectio Animo



open





The magical ability to listen to a person's soul to extract the truth, allowing a witch or warlock with this power to hear individuals' true hidden intentions as if hearing their thoughts out loud. It is somewhat similar to Lie Detection, though it is a variation of Clairvoyance.










The Sight



open





The magical ability to see significant visions or premonitions of the past, present, and future through touch. It is described as the greatest ability to have and the most painful to live with. It is described that these visions vibrate with light. This is a variation of Divination.










Hydrokinesis



open





The magical ability to create, shape, and manipulate water, inorganic compounds with liquid, gas (steam, water vapor), and solid (ice) states, including changing them from one state to another.










Potioncraft



open





Affinity for extensive knowledge of "Green Magic," including conventional herbalism as well as more sophisticated botanical science and potion brewing.










Healing



open





The magical ability to heal themself and othersโ€™ wounds and injuries. Do note that if the wound or injury is too extreme such as losing a limb or a limb hanging off, etc. cannot be healed with this ability. Only minor wounds and injuries like a broken bone, stab wound, scrape, etc.










Injury Transference



open





The magical ability to take their injuries and wounds and reflect them onto others. Whether it be self-inflicted or not.










War Cry



open





The magical ability to emit an eerie scream that causes all who hear it to turn on one another. Do note that the user can direct the scream at their target so that not just anyone in the screamโ€™s vicinity will turn on each other.










Atmokinesis



open





The magical ability to psychically control weather-based atmospheric phenomena. The witch or warlock with this power can manipulate the weather to create storms, lightning, thunder, fog, etc. This power is a very useful and powerful gift but it is also very draining and requires a lot of energy.















extra information.






Hello everyone! Welcome to the character creation thread for Descendants of Salem! Please make sure to not add anything extra to your character sheet unless you ask permission. Refer to the accepted powers list above for a main power for your character. Make sure to only choose one power! As the role play progresses, each character will gain anywhere between 3-5 new powers!

I am limiting everyone to one character for now!!

For the Power Revelation part for your character, keep in mind that the age they currently are is also the age they found out about their power on their own and when they also got sent to Miss Robichaux's by their parents or current guardian. You also have the option to be taken to Robichaux by having your character's Power Revelation make the news, e.g. your character accidentally burns down a building with their Pyrokinesis or your character was caught using their Resurgence power to bring someone/thing back to life. You choose! If there is anything you are unsure about, please do not hesitate to shoot me a PM on here! I am basically online 24/7, lol. Thank you so much!

    weight โ€” 120 lbs

    face claim โ€” alice
    pagani
    persona.
    personality โ€” jadounette is the quintessential mean girl and from a young age, she was groomed for success and soon became the star of her family. she's fiercely competitive and driven to succeed in all aspects of her life. her world revolves around money, status, and of course herself. jade sees everyone else as inferior to her, and she enjoys belittling and humiliating those who don't meet her standards. she expects nothing less than excellence from herself and those around her, and she won't tolerate anything less which makes her snobbish, entitled, and condescending towards anyone who doesn't belong in her social circle.

    jade is also very manipulative, using her charm and beauty to get what she wants. she knows how to play people against each other, and she loves nothing more than causing drama and chaos. she is not afraid to use underhanded tactics to get ahead, whether it's spreading rumors or sabotaging someone's reputation. jade thrives on attention and will do anything to stay in the spotlight. she has a sharp tongue and isn't afraid to use it. putting down others with snide comments and cruel insults is her expertise and it brings her great pleasure.

    however, beneath her glamorous exterior lies a deep sense of insecurity. jade has a soft spot for those she considers to be in her inner circle and she'll fiercely protect those who are loyal to her but won't hesitate to cut off anyone who dares to cross her. her friendships are based on mutual benefit - she expects loyalty and support in return for her own. despite her cruelty and how coldhearted she can be, there are moments when she shows genuine kindness and compassion towards others. these moments are extremely rare thought because jade is constantly afraid that people will see through her facade and realize she's not as perfect as she seems. this fear drives her need for control and perfectionism.

    jade measures herself against impossibly high standards and expects everyone else to do the same. inside her lies a deep-rooted fear of failure. she's never known anything other than success and is terrified of what will happen if she doesn't meet expectations. failure is not an option in her mind, so she'll do whatever it takes to come out on top - even if it means stepping on others along the way. the reason for her being like this is because her parents pushed her into the acting industry at the age of seven and they made sure to push and work her hard day and night to make sure she never failed. they used her all her life so that she would consistently bring in money for her family. despite this fear driving much of what she does, she'll never let anyone see her weakness or vulnerability.

    likes โ€” gossip, shopping, traveling, partying/clubbing, late nights, horror & comedy movies, modeling, ballet, sunsets, lavender, macarons, tattoos, fashion, chanel, iced coffee, getting what she wants, & gold jewelry
    dislikes โ€” tacky fashion, failure, being told what to do, rainy days, romance movies, mess & messy people, country music, volunteering, early mornings, being late, tripoux, simplicity, children, heights, & politics
    fears โ€” failing at anything, disappointing her parents/family, her vulnerable side showing, relapsing, & losing everything she worked so hard for
    hobbies โ€” gymnastics, ballet, figure skating, muay thai, fashion design, antiquing, & shopping
    skills โ€”
    lying, manipulation, multitasking, lock picking, negotiating, works well under pressure, multilingual, & acting
    robichaux file.
    main power โ€” telekinesis, the ability to manipulate objects with the power of the mind, which allows jadounette to move or levitate people and things without physically touching them. jade can use her telekinesis offensively and defensively.
    power revelation โ€” jadounette found out about her telekinesis in the worst way possible. just two months before her twentieth birthday, she met henri dominique toussaint. he had the face of an angel and the body of a greek god but he had the devilโ€™s personality. one could say that henri was a cliche bad boy who was always looking for trouble but he could easily charm his way out of it. while he was in california for a modeling campaign for yves saint laurent, he met jade. immediately the two hit it off and planned their first date together.

    even though he lived in a beautiful beach house in miami, he moved in with jade for a few months while the two spent every last second with each other. but with every good thing comes the bad things. about two months into their relationship, henri had become obsessive, controlling, and abusive towards jade. he did not allow her to have any friends or even a decent hobby. all he wanted was for her to be focused on him and put all her time and energy into their relationship. jade was trapped and she really couldnโ€™t do much about it. henri threatened her and told her he would ruin her life if she ever tried to leave him and she believed him. she was scared for her life and didnโ€™t know what to do about it. even though henri wanted jade to be loyal to him and devote herself to him and their relationship, he was far from that and was quite literally the opposite. he would cheat on jade behind her back and have intercourse with multiple women daily while she was at work or away from home. what was even more barbaric is that he was bringing other girls into jadeโ€™s home and fornicating with him in her bed.

    one day, jade and henri were heading back to her place after a day out in the city. they had just finished eating dinner and were driving back in henriโ€™s maserati. while in the car, jade received a text from her best friend. the message contained a video and a text saying, โ€œi thought you might want to see this, heโ€™s a piece of shit.โ€ jade clicked the play button on the video and what played before her eyes made jade die a little on the inside. someone had made a compilation of henri cheating. apparently, he had a thing for recording every time he had intercourse with another woman and saving it to his phone. somehow, someone got into his phone and downloaded all the videos to their personal device.

    jade was disgusted, angry, sad, and enraged after the video ended. she didnโ€™t know what to do. but what she did do made her feel even with him in her mind. jade confronted henri about the videos and it resulted in them having a screaming argument in which henri tried to defend himself and his actions. he got physical with jade by punching her in the face and busting her lip. that really caught her off guard and made her even angrier. she grabbed all her belongings and exited his car, kicking the door with her foot and leaving a dent behind. as she walked off, she broke down and started crying. henri followed her in his car, trying to get her to stop and come back but she wasnโ€™t going to. after a few minutes, he gave up on her. as he drove away, jades mind was filled with many thoughts. one thought that was stronger than the rest was wanting henri to die. she let her emotions get the best of her, her anger especially, and she wanted to see him die a painful and excruciating death. jade watched as his car went down the road and she thought about him dying. and as crazy as it sounds, right as he went to slow down from speeding away, his car flipped forward and burst into flames. jade stopped dead in her tracks and watched as bystanders screamed and shouted in both shock and for help. she was bewildered by what had just happened and she wasnโ€™t sure if she had caused this to happen. no way it was a coincidence that it did happen. because what are the odds of her thinking of him dying and then it actually happening?

    well, she soon found out that she did make it happen. her life changed overnight when her mother told her what she truly was. a witch with the power of telekinesis. and she would be leaving her lavish life in california to attend miss robichauxโ€™s all the way in new orleans.

    strengths โ€” jade's telekinesis is controlled by her emotions. the breadth of her power really depends on what she's feeling at the moment. anger and rage can allow her power to be stronger and more enhanced, allowing her to do more. if she's sad or unmotivated, her power becomes weaker and she's not able to do much.
    weaknesses โ€” jade's strength is also her weakness. her emotions control her powers so if she isn't motivated enough, she won't be able to do much with her power. concentration is also another thing jade has to maintain in order for her power to work correctly. if thrown off focus while using her power, it can stop working and could cause something bad to happen.
    extra.
    backstory โ€” Jadouentte Amber Van Leer was born to a French immigrant family in Waterville, Maine. Her family left Saint-ร‰tienne, France while Jadeโ€™s mother was pregnant with her eldest daughter in hopes of giving her a better life in America. Even though they wanted their daughter to flourish in the States, they didnโ€™t have the best intentions. Moving from France to Maine was a significant change for the Van Leer family but due to Maine being a state heavily populated with French people, they adjusted quickly. For Jade, her life in America wasnโ€™t what she was expecting and it was her parents who ruined her life. Growing up, Jadeโ€™s family did not have a lot of money. She was used to wearing hand-me-downs, thrifted clothes, and clothes donated to her family from charities. In school, she was made fun of because of the clothes she wore or the way she looked because none of her stuff was brand new and she wasnโ€™t wearing all the trendy brands all her classmates wore. It was hard on Jade especially because she was so young and she had to deal with the pressure and stress of being bullied for something she couldnโ€™t help. For the next three years up until her eighth birthday, Jade endured many long days of bullying and from that, she dealt with depression. Depression at such a young age can impact someoneโ€™s life and for Jade, it changed her personality and attitude drastically.

    A few weeks after Jadeโ€™s eighth birthday, her mother saw an advertisement on Facebook from a casting company looking for a young girl to star in a TV commercial. Without really putting much thought into it, Jadeโ€™s mother signed her up for the role and a few weeks later, they heard back from the company who wanted Jade to come in for an audition. It was a local casting so they didnโ€™t have to worry about scraping together enough money to afford going out of state. On the day of the audition, Jadeโ€™s parents put her in the best clothes she owned, went over her lines a few more times, and then sent her for her audition. Of course, Jade wasnโ€™t the only young girl to sign up so when she went inside to wait for her turn, she was met with about twenty more girls waiting as well. It was a high-pressure situation for her to be in but she pushed through it even though she felt like she was being judged by everyone there. After Jade finished her audition, her parents had to sign a couple of documents and talk with some of the directors. Usually, it would take a few weeks to a month or two for them to let the auditionees know who was chosen and whatnot but that same day, they chose Jade for the role because the directors said she was a perfect fit for the role. This made her feel a lot better knowing she was picked for the role this early and because sheโ€™d be on national TV. A few months passed with Jade constantly going back and forth to set and doing multiple takes before finally the commercial aired. It was a very successful commercial that was talked about for months. Jade was paid very generously and when her parents saw the amount of money she brought in, they knew that they had birthed a star and they werenโ€™t letting her quit now.

    Into Jadeโ€™s teen years, her acting career had fully consumed her personal life. Almost every day, Jade was on set for something new. When her parents saw how successful she was with that commercial she did at just eight years old, they took advantage of her and had her signed. She had become just as famous as Shirley Temple, Macaulay Culkin, or even the Olsen Twins. Jade was a household name across the world and her fame and success just kept growing by the day. By the time she was twelve years old, she had made enough money to move to Calabasas, California. Her parents purchased a multi-million dollar mansion surrounded by all the trending celebrities. While a lifestyle like Jadeโ€™s sounds like the American dream especially to a family like the Van Leerโ€™s who literally came from nothing, Jade was not enjoying her life. At first, she did enjoy acting and whatnot but soon all of that became tiring and she was becoming exhausted at a young age. Whenever sheโ€™d mention wanting to quit or even to take a break from her career to her parents, theyโ€™d dismiss her feelings and opinions, telling her that the life she was given is a blessing and one she should be proud of. She understood that and all she wanted was a break but her parents wouldnโ€™t allow it. When she turned sixteen, her mother pushed her into modeling. Her modeling career was successful just like her acting career which caused her to have more work to do and the pressure and stress quadrupled.

    With Jade now having two stress-inducing careers, she became depressed again just like she did when she was younger. Her depressive state caused her to make some bad decisions, even some that almost ruined her career permanently. When Jade got into modeling, she made friends with the wrong group of people. In the modeling industry and even in the acting industry, nobody is truly your friend. But Jade didnโ€™t know that since she was fresh meat and she was taken advantage of by many. Her so-called friends were the ones to get her addicted to multiple drugs. They all did cocaine, meth, and pills and wanted Jade to do them too. At first, she refused but she fell victim to peer pressure. So, she did drugs just like everyone else because she wanted to look โ€œcoolโ€ too and โ€œfit inโ€ with everyone else. What it really did was ruin her life because she became addicted and her addictions interfered with her work life. Alcohol addiction also stemmed from her drug addictions and she would mix the two. Jadeโ€™s parents soon noticed the change in their daughter as she was unmotivated and unenthusiastic about working. She would be late or miss her auditions or modeling gigs to instead drink or do drugs. Sometimes she was so hungover, she would be missing the entire day.

    Her mother had noticed the changes in her daughter's appearance and began insulting her about it. She told Jade that sunken facial features and dark circles werenโ€™t attractive and that she would struggle to get more jobs if she didnโ€™t change. But her mother was blind to what was going on with her daughter because all she cared about was the money she was going to bring in for her. After all, they forced their daughter into these careers not for her but for them so they could fuel the lavish lifestyles they lived. Jade was going through hell. She was a drug addict, alcoholic, depressed, and suicidal all at the same time. Her parents didnโ€™t care about her and instead, they shamed her even more which screwed with her mind. They didnโ€™t start caring about what was going on with their daughter until the money wasnโ€™t flowing in abundance like it used to be. It took them two years for them to actually care and realize what Jade was going through at just eighteen years old. A suicide attempt was made by Jade one night in her bedroom while her parents were downstairs preparing dinner. Jade had managed to make a makeshift noose from some old clothes which she hung from her bed frame which was pretty high off the ground. Luckily for her, she only hung from her bed frame for approximately two and a half minutes before her mother walked in on her daughter. Jade had started to change colors in her face when her mom walked in and she immediately pulled Jade down as she screamed for her husband. They rushed her to the hospital immediately and she stayed there for the next week.

    Of course, the doctors found traces of the drugs she had taken earlier that day of her failed suicide attempt and her parents put her directly into rehab. For the next six months, Jade was in rehabilitation for both her drug and alcohol addiction. By her fourth month of rehab, Jade had shown signs of recovery and was looking better not only mentally but physically. She had multiple therapy sessions every day to help with the depression that she was experiencing during her addictions to drugs and alcohol. By the sixth month, Jade was doing better altogether and was released from rehab. Her parents did everything they could to help their daughter and to make sure she didnโ€™t relapse. They definitely were more helpful than they used to be and Jade was happier to actually have her parents. A few months after her nineteenth birthday, she made one year of being sober but still struggled with depression. It wasnโ€™t as bad as it used to be but with the help of therapy sessions, she was able to better herself mentally. Two months before her twentieth birthday, Jade had gone back into modeling and acting. She was watched by her parents carefully and they made sure to have people watching her every move while she was away from home to make sure she didnโ€™t relapse. She successfully booked a modeling gig with Yves Saint Laurent and that is when Jade met Henri Toussaint, a French model from Miami who she immediately fell in love with. What she didnโ€™t know is that he would be her ruin and she would be his murderer.

    Name: Kennedy Morvo
    Nickname: Kenna
    Age: 18
    Gender: Female
    Pronouns: she/her
    Sexuality: Bisexual
    Date of Birth: April 13th
    Place of Birth: Brooklyn, NY

    ๐•๐ˆ๐’๐€๐†๐„
    Weight - 123 lbs
    Height - 5โ€™3โ€
    Build - Petite and mildly athletic
    Eyes - Icy Blue
    Skin - Ivory
    Hair - Black with some locks dyed other colors depending on the day
    Body Mods - She has several tattoos and piercings including the tattoo of a skeleton dancing in a bonfire, a line of burning tarot cards, and a mushroom with a knife.
    Distinguishing Features - Her eyes, gothic makeup, and gothic wardrobe
    Face Claim - Ksenia Solo


    Appearance:
    Kenna is a petite young woman who stands at about 5'3" and has little curves to her figure but still a flattering build that she is quite proud of. Her skin is pale ivory in color and often adorned with dark gothic style makeup that tends to center around her icy blue eyes. Her hair is naturally onyx black and she tends to wear it long with a cute cut of bangs across her forehead. Depending on the day she might dye strands of her hair a different and often vibrant color in order to match her outfit or her mood. Her clothing style matches her makeup in the goth aesthetic with usually layers and dark colors with maybe a few vibrant shades of red, purple, or blue thrown in on occasion. One of the signature to her style tends to be her wide variety or lace up heeled boots that she can dead sprint in with surprising ease.

    Backstory: Growing up on the streets can be hard but growing up in the system can sometimes be much harder. That was how it felt for young Kenna as she bounced from group home, to foster house, to disciplinary institute for the majority of her life. Things were never easy, people were seldom nice, and the only person she could truly depend on was herself which was why she often took to the streets or hid out in strangers' vacation homes. She learned street smarts pretty quickly, learned where to go for REAL help, who to trust, who to avoid, and how to disappear, but eventually, she would always end up right back in the system. As she got older she was placed with a foster family that had a reputation for taking in "troubled" teens and getting them straightened out. Kenna didn't have much hope for what that meant and she was glad she didn't because the moment her case manager left the real hell began. The elderly couple were abusive in terrible ways and Kenna was treated more like an animal than a person including having an electric collar placed on her to make sure she behaved. Long story short it didn't take long for Kenna to grow to truly hate the couple, their ways, their abuse, and the power they had over her. One night when the husband decided to lay into her over her not folding their laundry properly something in Kenna snapped and the man erupted into flames. All of the rage and pain the couple had caused her came pouring out and she screamed as loudly as she could as fire sprang to life all around her. The couple burned to death in their house with the fire consuming everything except Kenna who stood in the only unburned spot of the property. Instantly the authorities were called and it looked as though Kenna would be going away for a long time until representatives from the Acadamey appeared and swept her away along with any mention of her name in relation to the accident.

    ๐‘๐Ž๐๐ˆ๐‚๐‡๐€๐”๐— ๐…๐ˆ๐‹๐„
    Main Power - Pyrokinesis
    Power Revelation - As will be discussed in her history, Kenna discovered her affinity for fire in a moment of extreme emotional and physical distress. She was terrified and full of unimaginable wrath as well as pain and because of this the flames just came bursting to life and consumed the targets of these emotions almost like a fiery hound protecting its master. In this sudden outburst Kenna burned down the home of her foster parents and the only spot spared was the spot where she stood.
    Strengths - using her emotions to charge her magic, quick on her feet, adapts easily, conjuration, packs a powerful punch
    Weaknesses - her magic can get dangerous if her emotions are out of control, concentrating, small doses (tends to be a go big or go home kinda gal when it comes to her magic), hates taking time to actually study and read (will if she has to but might take a bit longer than others)


    Personality:
    Despite the way Kenna grew up she isn't as cold as you might think. Instead, she is actually a very warm and welcoming young woman who tends to always find a reason to smile and tries to do the same for others. She will make jokes at her own expense, act goofy, make faces, and be an over all clown to try and bring others up when they are feeling down. She can be very blunt without meaning to be but that is because she simply has no filter and wasn't brought up with the same social lessons as others. She is very self efficient but also doesn't like to leave others in the dust so will do her best to help them out as well if she sees they are struggling. She does not take being truly made fun of or talked down to well and has quite the tongue on her when others start to treat her as if she has less worth. She grew up being treated like trash and won't allow anyone to continue to treat her or others in such a way. She can be quite vengeful when she wants to be and is far more cunning and clever than people give her credit for. While she would give you the shirt off her back if you needed it, she would also feed you poisoned cookies if you pushed her far enough. She is incredibly loyal to those who earn her trust and would do anything for her friends.

    Likes - hot cocoa, cherry pie, vintage photography, special effects movie makeup, drawing, candy, crashing at rich peoples houses
    Dislikes - mint, the authorities, heights, large bodies of water, going back to juvie (or at this point prison), radishes
    Fears - Drowning, growing old, heights, being locked away for good, people having absolute power over her
    Hobbies - photography, special effects makeup, drawing, tattoo design, learning spooky history facts
    Skills - making a fire out of just about anything, pick pocketing, lock picking, free climbing, drawing, photography, people skills


    Powers: Pyrokinesis

Power Revelation:
"You should really ask them if you can start training with me,"

Eryn was strapped into the passenger side of the 1980 Camaro that curved on the backroad leading through the parish. Von remained silent as he focused on the road. His speed was 5 mph higher than the speed limit, but that was because he knew these roads like the back of his hand. The silence that followed his sister's words made the air uneasy, a drastic opposite of their usual shared air. He knew she meant well, but the fact that their family would never accept him for who he was lingered on his heart like an aching growth. The fog outside the car sickened the road a bit, making Von a little weary. He had just eased off the gas a bit when It appeared, out of nowhere and gargantuan in size. The impact was swift and Tevon felt the dark red murk that followed with pain as his body was pierced with a large piece of glass. He felt himself sliding away, falling backward within himself as the sight left his eyes. He desperately tried to keep breathing, but his lungs couldn't keep up as they filled with blood.

The lights then shifted low and he let go, into the nothing between heaven and hell.

"No...not...yet..."

Whatever consciousness was left of him vibrated with a power he'd never felt before. It was like he was on a metal tether, being pulled in whatever direction. It tried to pull him, but this power in him would not give. It pulsed stronger and stronger with each infinite second, pulling the pieces of who Tevon was and pulling it right back to him. It was like swimming upward from the depths of a vast ocean. Suddenly, the chain popped loose and He broke the surface, screaming...

Out of the darkness, into the light.

Strengths: He can summon beings from the void of death, bypassing the laws of the afterlife--no matter what faith you believe in, he can reach you and restore your body in the process.

Weaknesses: His inexperience with magic leaves him relying on raw strength rather than finesse. Therefore, he can't do 'back-to-back' resurrections yet. And, there is no guarantee that he can bypass the laws of nature every time, leaving a margin of the ability to fail. It's all up to him and what he can handle. It's an extremely powerful gift, but he'll have to earn whatever title that comes with it.

Personality -
There's a rare type of boldness within Tevon. A sort of fearlessness that arises when you discover that everything you knew was a lie--or, at the very least, a version of the truth that was fed to you with a splintered wooden spoon. Before he 'died', Von didn't believe the craft all that much. He thought that the fight that needed to be won only existed in ways that wouldn't end unless people started giving a fuck. Now, he knows better. He knows that power can come from losing the things you care about most. There's a dangerous sort of strength that comes from this separation. You can't just stop when you fall and scrape your knee...you have to push on in the memory of what you're trying to preserve. The monsters under your bed are real...but, strangely, he's not afraid. On the contrary, he wants to be as hands-on as possible with the whole 'being a witch' thing. He's in, all in.

There's also secret rage within him that was awakened the night of the crash. Like a dark, curious flame was lit within him and slowly burning him from the inside out. It's not completely taking over his personality, but an addition to it. He's fierce but fair. He can get out of control sometimes but with good reason. He's stubborn as hell once he gets an idea in his head, especially if it feels like the right thing to do. He's not self-righteous to the degree of being annoying, but he will go to great lengths to make what's on his heart known.

Likes - cherry cola, rainy afternoons, driving, cigarettes
Dislikes - hangovers, foggy weather, cheap beer, waiting in line
Fears: getting old, losing close people, failure

Backstory:
Tevon is now plagued by thoughts of doubt and mystified by the fact that he is actually a witch of high caliber. His family was matrilineal, meaning that no matter what the women of his lineage tried they always birthed females--at least until he and his twin sister were born. The fact that he was the only male in the long line of women was a sign of a change. Either he was the savior of their bloodline or a herald of complete calamity. Because of this his mother, Delilah, treated him with caution. He was slightly removed from the family, even taking the name of his father as his last name instead of being treated like a true member of the Blake family. His sister, Eryn, was taught the basics of witchcraft, which passed through their line for generations. Meanwhile, Von wasn't even praised for the work he did love--his art. It was like bringing pictures to life for him, raw and visceral images of color and beauty. The sheer love he had for this talent was only praised by his sister, the only person to ever have any kindness toward him. His Mother was rough. "Be a man!" she'd say, "You only get one life, don't waste it on these silly pieces of canvas!" His heart sank a little lower each time she used her words as weapons toward him.

In secret, Eryn would teach Tevon simple spells to cast. He tried hard and paid close attention, but he could never really do any magic. At least, not until the night that he and Eryn died. While driving his sister back from their Grandmother's house, she had been teaching Eryn the craft, there was an accident. Tevin doesn't remember exactly what he saw, only that it looked like a goat and a man simultaneously and it stood in the middle of the road. They collided with the Beast head on and the damage done to the vehicle was little compared to their bodies. The front end of the car was smashed, completely totaled. The cops on-site called it the most bewildering tragedy they'd ever seen. There were no remains of the Beast anywhere to be found.

When Tevon resurged, he was in the morgue. Within himself he found a new kind of strength that wasn't there before...something had drastically changed. And something was seriously wrong. He lifted himself from the table, everything about himself still intact, and found his belongings in the care of the receptionist who looked at him like he was the second coming of Jesus. He awoke in shock: wasn't there a huge shard of glass in his chest before it all went black? He frantically looked around, murmuring Eryn's name. He found her, being identified by his mother and the rest of the family. She had a huge gash on her forehead, the telltale red and white showing that she wasn't coming back. He didn't even have time to break down, even though his heart faded dark. His Mother and Grandmother were at his neck, questioning what he'd done. He told them the truth and they cowered in fear. "The devil came for your soul, boy...but He took my baby," his mother shrieked. She nearly ripped out her own hair over this, but his Grandmother looked at him, truly looking at him for the first time in her life. It was like she knew this would happen. When it was all said and done, she took him aside when his Mother eventually disowned him among all of the onlookers in that hospital. "I can't save you from the fate that is before you," Grandmother said woefully, "But you always had this power. Eryn was only borrowing your gifts for the time being, until you would need them yourself. It's a twisted, terrible truth...but it's the truth. Now, you need someone who can help you discover the Seven Wonders. You'd be the first one of us who could ever do it. Go on, to New Orleans and meet your Supreme. Bring us honor...for your sister." And, with that, she left.

Tevon made his way there by bus with the little money he'd gotten for selling the pictures his mother didn't destroy. He arrived, with all his things, finding a woman and her coven sisters waiting for him and the other new recruits at the top of the steps. It was his time to do what was right and find out exactly why that Beast was after him and his sister.
