[hider=Graham][img=http://i.imgur.com/HiDmo8S.jpg][/hider] [b]Personality:[/b] Graham is ambitious to say the least. Ever since he learned of his family's ancient blood, it has been his mission to bring his family back to the forefront as they once were. He is charming by nature and manipulative by design. His family's attitudes have rubbed off on him and he can have quite a mean streak. He will be cordial to those he doesn't know, but that is the extent of his friendliness. He has very few friends and even fewer people he trusts. Sometimes he doesn't even have faith in his family. He is loyal only to himself and his kin, in the long run, and will do whatever it takes to make a name for himself and his family. He isn't all bad though, Graham is intelligent and can come to respect others even if he happens to be trying to kill them. To those he does trust, he can be loving and protective, but those people are so few and far between it isn't seen much. [b]Bio:[/b] Graham is the middle child of three, with an older brother and a younger sister. They are all members of the main branch of the Bishop family line, though it is really just a title. Being of fortunate birth means next to nothing in the Bishop family. They glorify individual power over archaic political structure. Most of Graham's adolescent life was dedicated to the family trade. His parents pushed each of their children into studying magic as much as possible. They would pit the siblings against each other in an attempt to replicate the competition they would have to face once their powers were activated. An outside eye might find this horrifying. Forcing children to study books upon books for hours on end and then making them compete against their own siblings to gain their parents' admiration. But to Graham's parents, this was the only way their children would survive in the long run. They loved their children, in their own way. Once Graham got older, he moved away from the family. He still visits often, and continues his studies, but he could no longer bear living with them. The competition between him and his older brother sparked into something real, and now the two can barely stand being in the same room. He still has a decent relationship with his sister though. [b]Others:[/b] Aware of his magic blood. --- [u]Witch Family Sheet:[/u] [b]Family Name:[/b] Bishop [b]Leader:[/b] Graham's grandfather, Gerard Bishop, is the patriarch of the Bishop family. He one of the few of his generation left in the family. [b]Economic Standing:[/b] Middle class, very average. [b]Magical Standing:[/b] The Bishops were once a powerful family, but have since fallen out of the spotlight. They still have powerful magic, but they are very secluded. Several betrayals in the past inspired a certain paranoia in the members of the family, who have since taught that distrust to their children. Infighting and rivalries inside the family itself have led to some tension and have prevented the family from focusing on outside matters. [b]Values:[/b] The Bishops value individual power above all else. The strongest witch in the family is the leader, despite how poor of a leader they may be. Being a powerful family isn't on most of their agendas. The importance of being stronger than those around you has casued some tension between kin and has led to some infighting. [b]Magical Style:[/b] The Bishop family's magic is as cruel as they are. They specialize in sacrificial magic, seeing the power in blood and death. Their lesser spells require blood, usually from cutting a palm, while their stronger magic requires death. The most powerful of these spells, which few can cast, asks for a willing human sacrifice. It was once considered a great honor amongst members to volunteer for these rituals. With the younger generations slowly gaining more power in the family, the practice is dying out. They don't think sacrificing their own kin is worth it in the long run. [b]Family History:[/b] The Bishop family line descends from a very old British family that moved to America in the early 1600's. They settled all over New England. Several branches formed as the family spread out. One famous witch from the Bishop main line was Bridget Bishop. She was the first person executed for witchcraft during the Salem Witch Trials. She is largely looked upon by the family with disgrace.
