Personality |
Elijah is seen as a loner type, the kind of person who doesn’t interact with anyone and whose emotions are suppressed to a T. No one ever really sees him smile or frown, always with the same neutral expression on his face. He speaks with facts and honest opinion, usually to the detriment of his own existence at times. Despite these circumstances, he’s practically unafraid to speak his own mind, usually with brutal efficiency.
His emotions can affect his powers, as he becomes more angry, his skin begins to heat up. Most of the time, his powers are kept in check by suppressing said emotions, though he is generally warm to the touch regardless. To further suppress his powers though, a magical seal was placed over him to bind the elemental spirit within him. Despite these safety measures, he can lose control of himself and become a raging inferno that destroys and kills all in its path. Most of the time though, his loss of control is by choice rather than an overwhelming feeling of negatives, and he only ever does this if he is desperate enough to do so.

Abilities |
Advanced:
Pyromancy - his powers are based over the control of fire, everything from projectiles to shields.
Elemental Avatar - Can temporarily break the seal that blinds him and unleash his true form as an elemental avatar of fire and rage. His powers increase exponentially, at the cost of all self control, but this ability has a limited time frame.
Minor:
Detection of Mana - Since he is blind, he uses this ability as a ‘sixth sense’ to detect the mana of those around him and everything affected by their mana. Think of this power as a sonar ability.
|
Limitations |
The flow of mana and his link to his elemental give him his powers. If either of these things were cut off from him, his powers would be disabled.
|
Place Of Origin |
Portland, Maine
|
Family |
Father: Kenneth Masterson - Powerful mage, control over the arcane, especially that of conjuration and plane shifting.
Mother: Eva Masterson - Abilities are unknown, deceased.
Butler: Reyes - A golem made by Kenneth Masterson to serve the family. Has the appearance of a human, though his size is entirely abnormal as he stands about 10 ft tall and is as wide as the broad side of a barn. If Reyes had a power, it would be unnatural strength.

History |
Elijah’s journey began at a young age when his father, Kenneth Masterson, bound a fire elemental into his only son. The results of the bonding unleashed a tremendous amount of power from the boy, destroying their homestead and killing his birth mother, Eva, in the process. Realizing the terrible amount of power (and potential) within the boy, Kenneth placed a magical seal over Elijah, binding the elemental being and restricting his sight, effectively making him blind. Having lost both his home and his wife, Kenneth took his son and found a new home, there he trained Elijah on how to better control his powers and helped to give him a better understanding of the arcane.
For years he practiced hard, meditated daily, and learned to control the raging inferno within him, knowing that it could cause the deaths of those around him. Knowing this fear, he secluded himself from almost everyone except those closest to him (ie his father and servant), and rejected the companionship of those who came to seek it. Though now older, wiser and in better control of his abilities, he still chooses to sequester himself away from others, perhaps out of fear, perhaps out of a commonly practiced method since childhood. Despite his practiced methods, he did choose to go to Delphina Academy to continue honing his abilities and build a network that he could tap into in the future.
When he learned of Delphina’s burning to the ground, he wasn’t particularly distraught over it. This attitude, including the rumors surrounding his past, powers and tendencies, spawned a particularly nasty rumor that he was the one who destroyed the school. Though Elijah knows this to not be true, some are unwilling to see through the lies that veil him. When given the chance to attend Mayweather academy he considered it another opportunity to network, and just perhaps learn of exploits in those that he may fight in the future, those that would call themselves ‘Hero’.
