"I don’t want to set the world on fire, that’s the other guy there.."
 _______________________________________________ Lena Marie Moonshadow | She/Her | 27 | Ethnicity: Tiefling (passing as human) | 66 | Weight: 135 lbs _______________________________________________ Resilience. _______________________________________________ Skills & Talents "Comedy is just tragedy plus timing" ___________________________________ Stand-up Comedy ⫻ Lena is a natural performer, able to read a room and craft jokes on the fly. Her sharp wit and timing make her a crowd favorite, even when she’s masking her own pain. Improvisation ⫻ Years of performing in unpredictable environments have honed her ability to think on her feet and adapt to chaos. Empathy ⫻ Lena has a knack for connecting with people, often using humor to bridge gaps and make others feel seen. Survival Instinct ⫻ After losing her parents and navigating life as a struggling comedian, Lena has developed a strong survival instinct, both emotionally and physically. Fire Magic (Emerging) ⫻ Lena is just beginning to understand her pyrokinesis, though her control is shaky at best. She can summon and manipulate blue flames, but it often comes at a cost. | Appearance ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ "I’ll tell you what, she looks like someone bottled chaos with a sharp grin and silver tounge." Lena is a striking figure, with sharp cheekbones and a mischievous grin that hides a world of pain. Her hair is normally a dark auburn with a wavy texture but she keeps her hair cut short and has dyed it grey for the last three years. Her eyes are a deep, almost unnatural auburn color. She has a slim but athletic build, carrying herself with a mix of confidence and weariness. Her skin is fair, though it occasionally flushes with a faint, infernal warmth when she’s stressed or using magic. Ever since she has developed her magic she has begun to notice some changes in her body. There is a sharp pain at the base of her spine, her skin’s complexion is purplish every day, and her auburn eyes have begun to grow ever more so vivid. She dresses casually, favoring worn jeans, band t-shirts, and a leather jacket that’s seen better days. Her only concession to flair is a pair of scuffed combat boots and a silver pendant shaped like a crescent moon, the final birthday gift she got at seventeen before her parents died in the fire. When performing, she amps up her look with bold eyeliner, makeup, and a sharp blazer, though she never lets herself appear too polished. There’s always a faint scent of sulfur around her lately, and this scent is only growing stronger as her powers develop. |

"My therapist wrote “she laughs to keep from crying, but the tears are always there beneath the surface”, what a load of horse shit."
MAIN GOAL ⫻
Lena wants to master her craft and eventually get noticed and go on tour with her comedy. While she is a long way away from this she works tireless to achieve it. As well, at her core, she hopes to honor her parent's memory and make peace with what she accidentally did. While part of her is against forgiving herself, the desire is there all the same.
PHILOSOPHY ⫻
Life is chaos, and the best you can do is laugh through it. Lena believes in survival above all else, but she’s starting to realize that connection and vulnerability might be just as important.
SECRETS AND FEARS ⫻
Lena hides her Tiefling heritage, fearing rejection and prejudice. She’s also terrified of fire, despite her newfound pyrokinesis, and carries immense guilt over the comedy club fire and her parents’ deaths.
SEXUALITY ⫻
Lena is pansexual, though she rarely lets anyone get close enough to find out. Her humor and charm make her popular, but she keeps relationships casual to avoid vulnerability.
WHAT WAS THE FIRST DAY WITH MAGIC LIKE? ⫻
Chaotic and terrifying. Lena’s magic manifested during a stand-up routine, when a sudden surge of energy caused a candle to erupt into blue flames. The fire spread quickly, and Lena felt a connection to it that was both exhilarating and horrifying. She fled to her family’s cabin, where she discovered Burnie Cinder, a sentient flame that seems tied to her emotions.
FLAWS ⫻
Lena struggles with self-doubt and guilt, often shutting down emotionally when things get too intense. She’s impulsive and prone to self-sabotage, using humor as a shield to avoid dealing with her pain. Her fear of fire and her own magic makes her hesitant to embrace her abilities, even when they could help her.

Backstory
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
"I don’t talk about my parents that much."
Lena, like many in Twin Pines, grew up in a loving but complicated household. Her father worked the docks but was an avid hunter and often was gone more than he was in the home. When he was there, he was tired and unwilling to properly entertain a young child but he tried his best to fight through it. Her mother worked at the local paper as an editor, so she too was gone for long hours of the day and was equally tired when she returned home. Despite this, they both worked hard to ensure Lena was as happy as could be as a kid and she was brought up to understand that hard work, and humility were the keys to success. Outside of a few long years where money was short her early years were unremarkable.
When Lena was a teenager she began to discover she had a knack for telling stories, a quality both her parents encouraged her to explore. In middle and high school she excelled in English classes, and even took a few creative storytelling college courses during this time through her school. She was involved in the marching band, and theater, and even picked up the sport of kicking a ball really hard and was a passable forward in Football. When she was seventeen her parents took her to the cabin in the woods to celebrate. When the electricity went out due to a powerful windstorm, Lena lit a candle and went to grab a drink when she suddenly tripped. The fire spread much faster than it should have, at least it did to Lena, and soon she and her parents were trapped. Instead of saving themselves, they worked to ensure Lena could get out first. Despite Lena’s own best efforts after, her parents succumbed to the fire and smoke and were pronounced dead on the scene.
She finished high school as best she could. While her parents were not wealthy they were well enough off and she was able to enroll in college and several hours of therapy a week. It was here that she met her best friend Jackson, and the two became inseparable from here on out. Lena has a degree in marketing that she does not use and instead works hard to achieve her goal of becoming a successful comedian. While she has the talent, it remains to be seen if she will use it.

"Quote about your magic here."
MAGIC ⫻ Infernal Pyrokinesis - Lena has the ability to summon and control blue flames that burn colder than a normal fire but can not be put out by conventional means.
MAGIC DESCRIPTION ⫻ Lena’s magic manifests as blue flames that seem to have a life of their own. The fire is tied to her emotions, flaring up when she’s angry or scared and dimming when she’s calm. Burnie Cinder, a sentient flame, appears to be a manifestation of her magic, acting as both a companion and a reminder of her power’s unpredictability. Lena’s control is shaky at best, and her magic often feels like it’s controlling her rather than the other way around.
Pyrokinesis ⫻ Lena can conjure, and command the fire she brings forth. This can range from the simple, like creating a fire on an object and controlling the blaze to the complex like summoning her Flame Elemental Burnie Cinders.
Fire Elemental ⫻ Burnie Cinders is a sentient, mischievous, ball of fire that acts on its own accord. While Lena can control it to some extent, it has been more like an agreement compared to full control. If Cinders does not want to do something, it will not, and it will tell Lena as much.
LIMITS ⫻
Lena’s magic is tied to her emotions, making it difficult to control when she’s upset or overwhelmed.
The flames are physically draining, leaving her exhausted after prolonged use.
Burnie Cinders has a mind of his own and doesn’t always obey Lena’s commands.
The blue flames are cold but still destructive, making them dangerous in close quarters.
WEAKNESSES ⫻
The more her fire consumes the more it will want to consume. Even outside of Cinders her fire feels alive and has a very deep well of hunger. Eventually, this hunger will be made manifest in her, making her more and more likely to burn things or objects.
While normal means of getting rid of the fire are not effective, magically created water or suppressants are. She will quickly lose a fight against a water mage.

MISQ SECTION
"ROCK AND STONE, brothers, rock and stone."
 _______________________________________________ Aunoth Veomavea Jackson Stone He/Him | 27 | Goliath | 90 inches 7’2” | 320 lbs _______________________________________________ Dependability _______________________________________________ Skills & Talents "Big guy, even bigger heart." ___________________________________ Strength and Stamina ⫻ As a Goliath, Jackson is naturally strong and resilient, capable of lifting heavy objects and enduring physical strain with ease. Problem-Solving ⫻ Jackson has a knack for finding practical solutions to difficult problems, often thinking outside the box. Loyalty ⫻ Jackson is fiercely loyal to his friends, especially Lena. He’s the kind of person who will drop everything to help someone in need. Cooking ⫻ Jackson is an excellent cook, specializing in hearty, comforting meals. He often uses cooking as a way to show care for others. Transformation Magic (Emerging) ⫻ Jackson’s magic allows him to transform parts of his body, such as his hands into bird-like claws. His control is still developing, but the potential is vast. | Appearance ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ "The weather is kind of chilly up here today." Jackson is a towering figure, standing at an impressive 7’6” with a broad, muscular build that screams strength and stability. His skin is a darker brown color with faint, swirling patterns that resemble stone that instantly reveal his Goliath heritage if the height wasn’t enough. These patterns are present predominantly on his chest, arms, and legs although his ears have the pattern. His eyes are warm amber, sparkling with humor or kindness, and his smile is wide and genuine, often accompanied by a deep, rumbling laugh. Jackson has long, wavy, and dark hair that is complemented completely by short facial hair of the same color. On his kneecaps, knuckles, and elbows that stone like swirl is made manifest. The skin is incredibly thick at these locations, visibly so, and in the past they would have made the perfect tools to crush through any who dare oppose him. However, in the modern world and when fully dressed, Jackson may appear more human than Goliath as he has fully adopted the human-centric fashion that dominates the cities. He dresses practically, favoring flannel shirts, sturdy jeans, and heavy boots, though he’s not above adding a pop of color with a bright scarf or beanie. Despite his imposing size, Jackson carries himself with a gentle, approachable demeanor, making him a comforting presence in any room. He often looks like a mouse trying to hide in the corner, and his bulky size is almost forgettable when one looks on his casual dress and friendly demeanor. |

"I have apparently become everyone’s rock but I have to ask who my rock is? Do I not deserve to be supported too?"
MAIN GOAL ⫻
Jackson is an avid sports fan and is trying to make his way up the sports journalism ladder. While he was never good enough himself to make it up the actual sports ladder, he does have a deep knowledge of the games and a natural charisma that could allow him to be successful if he just got his break.
PHILOSOPHY ⫻
Life is about connection and community. Jackson believes in being there for others, even when it’s hard, and finding joy in the little things.
SECRETS AND FEARS ⫻
Jackson fears losing the people he loves, especially Lena. He also worries about the responsibility that comes with his magic and whether he’ll be able to control it.
SEXUALITY ⫻
Jackson is stone top gay and proudly out, though he’s currently single. He’s had a few relationships over the years, but his loyalty to Lena and his own easygoing nature has kept him from settling down. He has lost three relationships when he had to put out fires for his friends and this is something that has held him back from going steady. Still, he opens up those damned apps every night hoping for something more than blank profile pictures and unsolicited nudes.
WHAT WAS THE FIRST DAY WITH MAGIC LIKE? ⫻
The first day was pure chaos. Jackson had a long day, had run a full bath, and lit a hundred candles to make him feel better. The day was long because he had just broken off a situationship with a charming man who caught feeling after their third Netflix session. The bath was going well until the magic tried to drown him. A bruised ego emerged from the bath five minutes later, out of the destroyed tub, and Jackson realized shit had changed.
FLAWS ⫻
Jackson can be overly self-sacrificing, often putting others’ needs before his own to the point of burnout. He also struggles with expressing his own fears and vulnerabilities, preferring to be the strong, dependable one.

Backstory
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
"Let's take a moment to breath, okay?"
Jackson Stone grew up in the rugged, close-knit Goliath community of Highridge, a small mountain town where strength, loyalty, and resilience were valued above all else. His parents, both skilled stonemasons, instilled in him a deep appreciation for hard work and craftsmanship from an early age. Jackson was the youngest of four siblings, and while his older brothers and sister were competitive and often vied for their parents’ attention, Jackson was content to stay in the background, observing and learning. He was the kind of child who would rather help his mother carry firewood or assist his father in shaping stone than engage in the roughhousing that defined his siblings’ relationships. This quiet, steady demeanor earned him the nickname “Little Boulder” among his family—a term of endearment that stuck even as he grew into his towering frame.
Life in Highridge was simple but demanding. The Goliath community prided itself on self-sufficiency, and Jackson learned early on how to fend for himself. He spent his days helping his parents with their work, exploring the mountains, and developed a strong cooking skill that has served him well through life.
By the time he was a teenager, Jackson had developed a reputation as the “gentle giant” of Highridge, someone who could be relied on to lend a hand, whether it was repairing a neighbor’s roof or mediating a dispute between friends. Despite his size, Jackson was never one to throw his weight around; instead, he used his strength to protect and support those around him. When Jackson turned eighteen, he made the decision to leave Highridge and attend college in Twin Pines, a small city that felt worlds away from the quiet mountains of his childhood. The transition was jarring. The noise, the smell, the slow-paced lifestyle of the city, the fish smell, and the island were overwhelming at first, and Jackson often found himself longing for the simplicity of home. But he was determined to make the most of his new life, and it wasn’t long before he found his footing. It was during his freshman year that he met Lena, a sharp-tongued, quick-witted Tiefling who seemed to carry the weight of the world on her shoulders. The two bonded almost instantly, drawn together by their shared sense of humor and their mutual need for connection in a world that often felt isolating. Jackson quickly became Lena’s rock, the steady presence she could rely on when her own life felt like it was spinning out of control. He was there for her during the darkest moments—when she struggled with the after effects of the loss of her parents, when she doubted her abilities as a comedian, and when she felt like giving up on her dreams. In return, Lena brought out a lighter, more playful side of Jackson, encouraging him to step out of his comfort zone and embrace the chaos of life. Their friendship became a cornerstone of both their lives, a bond that was as unshakable as the mountains Jackson had grown up in.
After college, Jackson stayed in Twin Pines, working as a handyman and part-time cook while pursuing his sports journalism career. He became a familiar face in the city, known for his easygoing nature and his willingness to help anyone in need. Despite his own struggles—navigating life as a Goliath in a town not built for him, grappling with the occasional prejudice he faced because of his size, and the fish smell, Jackson remained steadfast in his optimism and his belief in the goodness of people. He found joy in the little things like cooking a meal for friends, fixing a broken chair, or sharing a laugh with Lena after one of her shows. When magic returned to the world, Jackson was as surprised as anyone. His water abilities manifested unexpectedly, and while he was initially overwhelmed by the sudden change, he quickly embraced it as just another part of life’s chaos. He just wishes Lena was there for him like he would've been there for her.

"STOP TRYING TO DROWN ME...ME."
MAGIC ⫻ Hydromancy – The ability to manipulate and control water in all its forms, from liquid to ice to vapor.
MAGIC DESCRIPTION ⫻
Jackson’s hydromancy allows him to shape water into various forms, from delicate tendrils to powerful waves. He can freeze water into ice, summon mist to obscure his surroundings, or even draw moisture from the air to create small amounts of water in dry environments. His magic is deeply tied to his emotions, with calm focus allowing for precise control and heightened emotions causing his powers to surge unpredictably. Jackson’s hydromancy often feels like an extension of his personality—fluid, adaptable, and life-giving. However, it also carries a hint of the chaos that water can bring, reminding him that even the gentlest stream can become a raging flood.
Combat-Focused Spells (KNOWN)⫻ Jackson can use his water magic in a few different ways in a fight. He can pull the water together into a whip and use it to slash, grab, or deflect. He can also pull it all together and shoot it out like a cannon shot.
Water Whip ⫻ Through concentrated effort, Jackson can pull water, either from a source or from the ambient air, and form a singular tendril of water. This water tendril is typically as long as he is tall but it can vary depending on the amount of water in a given area. The whip is tough to command, and if Jackson loses focus the water will buck the command and simply fall to the ground beneath him.
Water Gun ⫻ Like the water whip, Jackson can pull the water into his chest area and form a large water bubble. He can then expel that water in front of him, shooting the water with high pressure out to a distance of thirty feet with the pressure dropping off and the shot dying out after fifty. This requires a lot of water, and often the ambient air is not enough.
Non-Combat-Focused Spells (UNKNOWN)⫻ Jackson does not know it yet but his water carries a healing energy to it. If he washes the water, gently, over a wounded area the healing magic will begin to work. It is slow, and deliberate magic that requires time, patience, and a lot of his magic.
LIMITS ⫻
Jackson’s control over water is strongest when he’s calm and focused. Stress or strong emotions can make his magic erratic and harder to manage.
He requires a source of water to manipulate, whether it’s a nearby body of water, moisture in the air, or even the water content in plants. In extremely dry environments, his abilities are limited.
Creating ice or vapor requires significant concentration and energy, leaving him drained after prolonged use.
While he can manipulate water, he cannot create it from nothing. This limitation forces him to be resourceful and mindful of his surroundings.
WEAKNESSES ⫻
While he can control water, he is like a rock in it. He has no special ability to not drown or breath in water so if he were to lose control, the water he commands could drown him.
