Shade Trepas ( Original )
Name: Kit
Age: 33
Contact:
Other Characters: n/a
Character Information
Name: Shade Trepas
Canon: Original
Canon Point: 2020ish
Age: 22
(canon) background: Shade is part of a coven of witches that practice death magic. The world very much looks down on their type of magic and he’s in direct conflict with another coven in his area that are nature/life witches. However, neither are good/evil even if the death coven is looked upon as evil. Shade’s not particularly naturally gifted but has worked and studied hard to become a talented practitioner and is focused on keeping balance in the world wherever he can.
He’s lead a rather normal life all things considered. He’s started college after graduating high school and is in his 4th year studying for his archaeological degree.
(original) world & history: Shade’s world is pretty much the typical modern world. Witchcraft isn’t exactly mainstream but it is considered with more legitimacy in his world but other than that there isn’t much of a difference. He is part of a small coven in Toronto and they have a rival in a much larger coven outside of Toronto in the less urban area of Ontario.
Shade has grown up under the supervision of his mother who is the coven’s leader. She’s always been disappointed in him as he’s not naturally gifted and nor did he have any inclination for necromancy as she does. He’s aware that people look down on their coven and tries to fight against the stigma on death magic wherever he can. There’s nothing particularly outstanding in his personal history. He has had a very normal life, all considering.
He is unaware that he is destined to bridge the divide between the nature and death covens who in ancient times were meant to work together for balance and harmony.
(CRAU) background: N/A
abilities:
Death Magic: use magic that brings death to living things
-he rarely uses this, if ever. Maybe to help a creature find a peaceful end if beyond saving. The amount of energy and power that it would require for him to bring death to a human or humanoid creature is highly unlikely without a strong relic or someone assisting him. There is also very little reason he would have to do it.
Divination: gain insight into a question or situation using an occultic, standardized process or ritual
Osteomancy: gain insight into a question or situation using bones
Personality:
+ Compassionate: Contrary to what people may assume about him based on his craft or his looks, Shade cares deeply for people and all living things. He wants to make the world better and keep the balance so the world is safe for everything in it. He goes out of his way to help when he can and never expects anything in return.
+ Intelligent: Despite not being naturally talented in death magic, Shade is very smart. He studied hard and through his will-power and natural intellect has become a formidable witch and also an excellent archaeological student at University.
+ Honest: Shade is honest to a fault. He’s not very good at telling even white lies and that makes him a tad socially awkward but trustworthy.
= Weird-loner: Shade is weird. One might expect this from someone who grew up in a death coven. He dresses in all black and his hair is two-toned black and white (he’s heard every Cruella joke in the book so don’t even). However, he loves things like Hello Kitty, fluffy, small animals, etc. He likes to talk about weird topics and will opine about balance of nature and life and death if allowed.
- Naive/Trusting: Shade believes the best in people even when they give him no reason to. He’ll trust anyone until they give him a reason not to instead of making people earn his trust. He doesn’t expect the same out of anyone else, though. Mostly, he believes that everyone has the best intentions even if they’re wrong.
- Grudges: What it says on the tin, really. While, it is extremely difficult to anger or rile Shade… once he feels wronged or worse if you’ve wronged someone or something he cares about or that’s innocent he will definitely not let it go.
Inventory: a necklace with a small vial that has tiny bones from the ear of an ancestor that he always has with him, backpack with some archaeological textbooks and his notebooks, bag of gummy worms, spell book, a small pouch containing various small herbs/artifacts for his craft, a bunch of random pens and broken pencils.
Which of the following would they most like to have in abundance: limitless good luck, the freedom to act without restraint, the ability to teach and to learn, or for everyone to just relax?
The ability to teach and to learn.
