Name: Apollo

Age: 12

Appearance: Is a young man with bright red hair, soft blue eyes and mischievous grin. He wears a gray cloak with runes on the back often seen with the hood up. He stand around 5 foot, 5 inches and is always on the look out for a good time. His constant brawls have left him with a few scars, even one on his hand that seems to be burned in like a brand more than a scar.

Background: Before being sent to the tower Apollo was a thief, growing up with a whore mom, he needed food and money so he stole, it was a honest life and he never hurt anyone. Apollo even named himself as his mother was content to let him die in the street. He often dealt with bullies and grown ups trying to hit because he was a thief and whore's son, so he learn how to take a punch and how to fight back. Until one day he stole from the wrong (Or perhaps the right) person. A wizard name Stahl who just come to town had snagged his arm when Apollo had attempted to pick the lock on his door. The young thief froze in fear as the mage stared down at him, suddenly the wizard broke in to laughter and told him that he sensed the gift of magic within him and began to train Apollo in how to use that gift. Now after two years of study Apollo has been sent off to the tower to continue his training making his adoptive father Stahl very happy. Stahl taught boy much and sensed that he could be a great wizard with the right teachers and so Apollo has risen to the task of mastering his power.

Personality: Apollo is kind and very dedicated to those he calls friends as he has few and loves to learn even teaching himself how to read with books he "borrowed". Apollo is very much a tough guy trying stick up for other and do what's right unless theft is involved, he's got a real weakness for that, Stahl called him a kleptomaniac. Apollo has always defended himself and his lack of friends makes it hard for him to develop attachment but he tries because his Stahl would want him to.
