Met is gonna make a character that's kinda' out there. Dunno if this is acceptable or not. Guess we'll see. [b]Name:[/b] Zinzie Searoby [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Alignment:[/b] Mage [b]Covenant/Affiliation:[/b] King of the Wandering Nation [hider=The legend of the Wandering Nation] It was said that, long ago, a group of outcasts came together as one, traveling as a caravan through a world that wouldn't accept them. They were witches, wizards, run away slaves, witchhunters who quit the job; all sorts. They slowly grew in numbers, picking up others along the way. Soon, people began to seek them out. Rumor spread that if you could find this caravan, you could find acceptance. No matter your past or affiliation, they didn't discriminate. Over the years, their numbers grew so large that they held the population of a small nation, hence the name. The Wandering Nation traveled the lands; vagabonds in the wind, gypsies with freedom, rebels without a cause. As several members of royalty, those who fled the crown, joined, the caravan grew rich. It was said that they had more gold and jewels than a man may ever see in a lifetime. However, it seems that the caravan is quite elusive. Some report having seen it, but most assume that it's just a fairy tale.[/hider] [b]Personality:[/b] Zinzie is a colorful man. He's kind, generous, and devoted to his people. His attitude is almost always upbeat, cheerful, and humorous. Charming, if you will. He was raised to see all men as equals, no matter their affiliation, background, or strife. [b]Power Description:[/b] Zinzie is particularly gifted at vocal enchantments and potion making. He can enchant a person or animal by singing to them, usually telling them what he wants them to do in his song. His potion making abilities are more straightforward. If given proper ingredients, he can whip up an array of potions for anything from growing hair to curing certain illnesses. [b]Spells/Abilities:[/b] Because of his singing enchantments, Zinzie is very skilled at coming up with songs off the top of his head. He sings fairly often, whether or not he is enchanting. His enchantments are used to persuade others to do what he wants. He could tell them not to hurt him, to give him money, to go to sleep. However, he cannot force someone to do something that they are too completely against. He can't make a person kill someone, or commit a crime, or something of that nature. His potion making abilities are limited to what ingredients are available. Most potion ingredients are expensive or rare. Without proper equipment, he can't do much. [b]Other skills:[/b] Zinzie enjoys cooking. [b]Other:[/b] Zinzie knows that mages are hunted for using magic, but he himself has never been persecuted for it. He may soon find that claiming to be the king of a mythical nation will not grant him immunity. [b]Appearance: [/b] Zinzie is a tall and lanky man, standing at 6'5". He's not particularly strong or muscular. His skin is an olive tone, his hair dark brown and curly. His eyes are brown and slightly slanted. Zinzie's clothing style is loose and colorful. He likes shiny jewelry and trinkets. Scarves and feather. Beads and rings.

His father and his grandfathers before him were all kings of the Wandering Nation. When his father passed, it became his duty to lead his people. So far, he's done pretty well. His subjects adore him and the way his treats them. He sees his people as equals. He eats the same food they eat, sleeps in the same dirt they sleep in. He doesn't hold himself any higher than they. Like his father before him, he's a humble leader. His leadership skills came to be tested fourteen months ago, when a band of thieves attacked his nation. The thieves had clearly been planing for months. They came in hoards, hoping to capture the alleged treasures the nation possessed. His people fought back, but when Zinzie saw his people dying, he had to take action. He ordered them to flee. His mages put their abilities together in order to make the entire caravan disappear in the blink of an eye. Half a million people were gone in the blink of an eye. However, it was too late for their king, who had been captured by the thieves. Zinzie was drug back to the thieves' base, far from where his people had been. They locked him up and tried to torture the location of his people out of him, but to no avail. They kept him under lock and key, with hope that he would someday crack and tell them. With fourteen months past, Zinzie holds his silence. He will manage to escape, at the beginning of the RP for the record.
