Aden was born in St. Louis, Missouri. His parents divorced early in his life; his dad was violent and manipulative, his mother got out while she could, and remarried across the country, leaving him behind. He had few friends, only managing to maintain a few acquaintanceships with people who wanted to use him to improve their grades. Things began to come to a head when he started hanging around with sketchy characters and rebelling against his dad. Coming into magic was the final straw, prompting him to finally stand up for himself. The confrontation turned violent, but he soon realized magic had changed very little for him, so he made his own change; moved in with his mom’s family for the summer and severing all ties with his dad.
Magic was complicated for him, it wasn’t the first time weird things had happened to him, and while before it was easily dismissable as harmless imagination, now he could cause real damage. He hid his abilities and continued as he had before, indulging the power when alone, but pretending as if everything was normal. One of his biggest worries was what the magic meant for him, where his place was in the world now, but without anyone to answer his questions he could do nothing to satisfy this. The message he received however was eagerly taken, and he left as soon as he could to find his own kind, hoping he’d finally be okay once surrounded by people in a similar situation as himself.

Vidasang (Change/World); Blood can be used to heal wounds. The blood can be taken from any source, but incompatible blood, meaning animal or of different blood types, is changed to become compatible. The further from compatible it is the more energy is needed to change it, meaning a snake’s blood would be more costly than the spell is worth, but a human’s would work fine. The spell works best on open wounds, but has some effect on broken bones. [Cast]
Mag-ascensor (World); Electromagnetism is used to manipulate the gravity around himself to achieve flight and increase his movement speed. Perception is unchanged, making extreme speeds disorienting. [Persistent]
Vermellum (World); Uses electromagnetism to blast a telekinetic force at a target, appearing as a small red missile of light. Can be shaped to be sharp or blunt for specific types of damage or other use.[Cast]
Calenallum (World); Creation of light so hot it can melt metal, start fires, and blind onlookers. The light can be controlled or it can radiate outwards in a blast. Must be used cautiously lest the user be burned or blinded.[Cast]
Electripell (Change, World); Skin gains a bioelectric outline, integrated to sense nearby movement and shock anyone or anything that makes contact.[Cast]
Animar (Change); Animates inanimate objects such as rocks or shattered debris into golems of various sizes to follow simple orders like ‘go there’, ‘carry this’, or ‘attack that’.[Persistent]
