I am well along with the first post, now. But I would like y'all to give me some input: Would you rather a bloody, violent scene or a sad and mournful one?

Neither of those sound like happy times for anyone involved.
I know it isn't the best, but I was working on a phone and it's a holiday.
That being said, please feel free to tell me what you thought. When you arrive at the Tower and are let into the room, the rooms may be custom made for your character. They will let you in even if you weren't invited, as they can sense the magic in you,
Also, the Tower is in a forest and right by the ocean.
Demon boy should be done, when hes accepted or changed to be accepted I'll post both my characters up! Also Happy 4th of July ^,^
Name Mercutio Parvis
Aliases The Host of Sin / The Beast Emerging
Gender Male
Race Human
Appearance
A relatively short boy who stands at 5'3 and looks young enough to be the younger obnoxious brother of any normal family. His eyes are a shade of green that looks like your lost inside a forest if you stare in them for too long. However, Mercutio is not the normal brother that anyone would like to have, as he wears strange dark robes that covers most of his body and a hood that remains down revealing his abnormal white hair and relatively pale young face. Having a naive look of curiosity on all times on his face, always seeking out answers to questions inside his head that he asks which seems to be near endless. His body underneath his robes has a pale and lithe build with slightly muscular features that are from walking around all the time.
Always with him is a dark book, which he keeps and records anything of interest and it basically serves Mercutio as a diary to record his findings. While his naive and young face may be disarming, a strange and creepy sensation radiates off him as you see him like if something is around him.
Backstory Mercutio was never meant to be, he was never meant to live, he was only suppose to be a human sacrifice by a family of Occultist who were planning for something big. However, Mercutio during the ritual was touched by something before everyone inside the house died as the building came down upon them. The blurry images are still present in his own mind as he remembered back then. After the accident he was rescued and adopted by other humans who were now his new family. His time with his new family was normal and he lived as a normal child who learned and played with the other kids and for a time was happy.
However, his roots back to being from an Occult family soon surfaced as he discovered he could summon an Demon to his aid. He kept this to himself hiding it from his family members, but in secrecy he practiced and learned that if he focused hard enough he could hear whispers in the corners of his mind. Listening to the voices he followed their instructions and slowly began rolling down the path of practicing Occult Magic.
The years past on as Mercutio grew to use his Occult magic with more proficiency, learning the ins and out of the taboo magic. He managed to harvest souls for his own purpose and experiment with necromancy for a short time but gave it up. Focusing on Conjuration of a single demon that was bounded to him since the beginning of his birth. Receiving a painful yet shocking vision a humanoid creature that surrounded his tiny form as a baby during the night of the ritual where he was being tributed. Unsure if he should trust the vision he researched and listen before confirming that the demon itself was bound to his own life force and if he had died it would die as well. How the powerful demon was bound to Mercutio, he himself wasn't sure but it would explain why his previous attempts of conjuration failed.
The demon bounded to him mysteriously labeled itself as Fenox, and it was tasked of basically protecting Mercutio at all cost. So doing its job, the demon was warding away attempts of any demons approaching him, making his attempts of summoning any demon fail due them being scared off. Deciding that staying inside of a large town would be bad if he conducted any larger experiments he would need to go out farther to avoid suspicion. He said farewell to his adopted family before leaving them to head out to the country to continue his occult studies.
Weapons Mercutio carries no visible weapon on him or in secrecy being a mage without any weapon handling experience
How did you find out about the tower I waited and listened to the Abyss, and the Abyss whispered to me where it was. With the guidance of the Abyss, my own curiosity led me on a journey to the place that was shown to me to find what is hidden there.
Personality Mercutio is a curious soul who likes to investigate things that he find mysterious and likes to uncover lost history and record it. His curious nature makes him often keep to himself as he is always occupied inside his mind asking questions and observing things making him very quiet. When he talks to people he is often asking questions about them and why they do certain things that they do. His observant nature makes him creepily knowledgeable about his teammates and does not mind speaking of what he knows about them. If asked how he knows, he will simply just mumble to himself and walk away nonchalantly to do something more interesting.
Magic School and Skill
Mercutio is specialized in Occult magic and is a powerful summoner of a specific demonic servant named Fenox which its task is to protect him at all cost and listen to his every orders. The demon Fenox is a powerful demon but at the same time it repels other demons from being summoned by Mercutio and has to consume souls to recover faster along with increase in power with the amount of souls it consumes. The demon itself is attached to Mercutio when summoned and is a very flexible demon depending on which form it is in.
Since Mercutio has no other demons, Fenox is his only demon he can summon and his skills in Necromancy are decent but nothing impressive as he dedicates most of his souls to increasing Fenox's strength. The abilities that Fenox has varies in which forms he takes but in general his basic form has above average physical prowess being able to challenge two soldiers at once with little difficulty and snap a simple sword easily. His defensive abilities in this form are decent as the demon can take hits for Mercutio and can create a weak magical shield to defend against both melee and ranged attacks or harden its skin to defend as well or hit harder for a short time. Fenox's misty figure in this form is swirled around Mercutio and so it can extend its form to attack at all ranges.
In its second and more defensive form, Fenox turns itself into a rib-cage like shield covered in a purple energy that solidifies with the rib-cage and protects Mercutio from all horizontal and partially from above attacks from all sides with a opening in the front for Mercutio to see. The rib-cage and energy that surrounds it destroys all basic level magic applied to it or hits it basically giving it immunity to weak magic and resistance to stronger spells. In this form, all attacks from Fenox are severely limited and delayed as the demon has to create a skeletal arm to attack first and only has the use of that one arm only. While he has to create his arm, the arm can be created to be set in a gripping position to grab a opponent instantaneous if they are standing still for too long and vice versa. All in all, Fenox turns stationary demon but in this form allows it to reach farther in its previous form as its skeletal arm can reach farther but is slower and he has to predict his opponents moves more.
The third and hardest form of Fenox to bring out is the near-full body form in which Fenox in its Rib-cage stage transforms into a skeletal torso and head with two skeletal arms to attack with. In this form it transforms the defensive and offensive properties of the two forms into a single one with solid defense while having a solid attack. This form is the creepiest and strongest of Fenox's ability allowing it to attack at any range with a variation of attack of sweeps, smashes, crushing or even flicking. The strength of the first form and sturdiness of the second form combined allows this form's attack to hit hard and take hits with no care for the mean time. The energy and bones in this form is so eerie and strange that it destroys the intermediate level of magics that is applied to it or hits it, basically having a immunity to normal powered spells and resistance to stronger ones. However, the third form of Fenox is has limited use and can only be used for 3-4 posts before reverting to either of the two basic forms and can be only used once every fight.
If any significant part of Fenox is damaged or destroyed then there will be a time for the demon to recover naturally or if fed souls it will recover near instantaneously but will not gain the strength when it normally consumes souls. If battle happens too soon and Fenox isn't able to recover it comes onto battle with its injuries and if it is slain in battle then Mercutio's demon wont be in the remainder of this battle or the next one depending on the time. Souls cant be consumed when Fenox is slain and has to recover naturally to fully be able to be resummoned without any issues.
I still claim that Mystics are the best EVAH, and there is nothing you inferior wizards may do to change my mind.
A compromise then, Planar Scholars are the best at hiding while Mystics are the best at finding, which is the most important part of the game as we all know.
The first post is definitely not bad, and I'm guessing Familykiller McSilverblade is at least a high ranking member of the Witchhunters if not their leader.
Also in case you wondering about Matuna's speech pattern Trolls have difficulty with words with than one syllable unless they"re speaking their their own language, meaning that he can't pronounce letter, combat, magic, or Far-seeing but can tell you his name.
I'm not totally satisfied with my opening, especially since it was done without any sort of sleep in the prior 18 hours, but there it is. I kind of held back from detailing Irina's thoughts too much, mostly because the post was just me being pretentious and not actually doing much of anything important.
I took certain liberties that I hope were not stepping over any lines, squish.

"Trollolo see far things. Special likes. Special VERY likes."

Can this ever be overcome?
What if all the telepaths try to alter his mind at once, so that he can use complex speech?
