@Letter Bee He's approved! Please put him in the character tab.
Alright, here's my character sheet! I'm open to thoughts and opinions, and would very much like to discuss establishing relationships :)Cyan "Tails" BridgetAge
16Grade
1st year, Saint Laurel's
He only got into St. Laurel's because he used his power and succeeded.Biography
Cyan's family was quite poor, his father was a drunk and his mother had trouble taking care of everything herself. Because of this, Cyan became reliant on his power from a young age, despite the dangerous nature of it. This meant he was often making things worse for himself, a prime example being when he grew a tail. He had already been bullied harshly at school because his heavily worn, sometimes dirty clothes. Coming to school one day with a fluffy fox tail only served to make things worse. This has caused him to be even more self-conscious and nervous about it, and so he prefers, if possible, to stand with his back against a wall or tree to hide it.
However, despite all the negative effects, Cyan wouldn't stop using his power. He wasn't very academically inclined, nor was he very physically strong, so he continued to feel forced to rely on his power. In reality, he's much more capable without his power than he thinks he is. While he generally gets quite mediocre grades, he's quick-witted and perceptive. Give him a math problem and his head will spin, but give him an actual problem and he'll generally come up with a pretty solid plan of action.
Contradictory to how his power works, Cyan doesn't like taking risks out of fear that if he gets lucky then, he won't have the luck for when he needs it the most. He holds especially true to this when it comes to games, he refuses to play any games that have luck as a component, but he has no problem observing a game being played. In fact, he quite enjoys it, though most of the time it ends up being whoever is playing answering the many questions Cyan has about the game.Power: Coinflip
Cyan can conjure a coin that when flipped, landing on heads results something good, and landing on tails results something bad. Before flipping, he thinks of a success result, something he wants to happen, and a fail result, something he doesn't want to happen. The results must be similar in how much they would impact him, so the more powerful the success result, the worse the fail result must be. When conjuring the coin, he can decide its design and material. If a coin already exists when he conjures a new one, the old coin vanishes, and if the coin is flipped without Cyan wanting to activate it's power, it will work as a regular coin of that shape and material.
Passive Coinflips
Flee
Because of the bullying when he was younger, Cyan used his power to give himself the ability to turn himself, what he's wearing, and what he's carrying, invisible when he's scared. Luckily he flipped heads because the fail result was pretty bad.
An Actual Tail
When Cyan was seven he used "growing an actual tail" as a fail result for if he flipped tails. He now has a bushy fox tail growing out from behind. While he can kind of control it, he's incredibly clumsy with it and it almost always gets in the way. To make matters worse, it always gives away his emotions, whether he wants it to or not. When he's happy, it wags, when he's sad or lonely it droops, when he's angry it tenses, when he's nervous or scared it curls up. So it's less of a power and more of a curse.Relationships
Alto
Alto is so beyond out of Cyan's league that he's pretty sure Alto doesn't even know he exists.Other
Cyan has practiced flipping coins for a total of days, trying to get and edge when using his power. Unfortunately, when activating the magical ability of the coin, the chance of success and fail is always exactly 50% regardless of circumstances. Flipping a coin and getting the exact result of his choosing each time is a nifty parlor trick though.

<Snipped quote by Ebil Bunny>
What about a third ability based on the off chance the flip doesn't make it through like it ends up landing on its side like in that one episode of Malcolm in the middle?
lol he can only summon normal one i think xD
@Ebil Bunny Thats lame. I'm not impressed anymore :P
Okay, well Lise is posted, though I suppose I should see who in Laurels might be good for friends. Must be okay with being called "commoners" or some derivative of such.
