The Trick to Magic

@Silverink At the moment I don't know which we'll be in need of but I'd lean towards maybe a male?

The Trick to Magic

@Silverink In regards to your PM, I am still accepting as I haven't yet accepted anyone fully so there's certainly room. :)

The Trick to Magic

@FernStone Thanks for being flexible. Hopefully you won't need to adjust things too much though. We'll have to see how things go as people begin to submit their sheets and what takes shape. Often as a GM for these I play two or three main roles to ensure numbers are rounded off but I try to avoid that now that I'm older and have to manage time a little more carefully.

The Trick to Magic

@FernStone Okay, just curious since I try to get a feel for what folks might be leaning just in case somehow we end up with all of one gender, I'd need to steer people to the other. I think for some it also depends on what images they find, personally I find an image before I get too invested in making a CS.

The Trick to Magic

@FernStone Yep, that sounds like a good idea to have and one of the ideas I was hoping someone would conjure up. We'll have to see how things shape up. Do you know what gender you might be thinking of?

The Trick to Magic

@FernStone Alright, thanks for touching base!

The Trick to Magic

Hale Westlake

~ Name ~

Hale Westlake

~ Appearance ~



~ Personality ~

Confident, witty and vain.

~ History ~

Hale grew up in a wealthy family, while everyone in the city as well as the world, was able to live comfortably, Hale's family was exceptionally comfortable. His older sister, Hana, was gifted with the ability to extract and further manipulate cobalt. Due to her skill she went into a career which predicted and prevented earthquakes. His sister being nine years older than him, ensured that for the majority of his life, he had witnessed Hana already adjusting to her magical talent and soon leaving home to pursue a life of her own. From his perspective, Hana was talented and lovely and he longed for the day when he could follow in her footsteps.

While Hana's passion was in studying the Earth's ever-changing surface and tectonic plates, Hale found comfort in something much more easy on the eyes. Hale would spend hours in the bathroom studying his appearance and finding ways to stand out. Fashion was modest and often muted, leaving no room for much personalization as many began to believe that it was a waste of time and effort, when one could be working or studying. Hale found great joy in creating fashion from scratch and when his powers failed to reveal upon reaching puberty, Hale focused on designing clothes and fabrics.

His parents weren't supportive of his lack of magic and went to great lengths to enroll Hale in private school so he could learn and be pushed while out of the public eye. He was pushed to see countless doctors who found nothing wrong with him. All scans unable to detect the shard embedded within his forehead. No one thought to connect his disappearance to his lack of magic, after all he had only vanished for an hour while on a school tour at the age of seven.

Eventually his parents refused to continue supporting him since they were worried what their friends would say about their son. Hana by that point was making enough money to send her baby brother to college. Hale urged the school to allow him to take an otherwise dead career as a designer; and upon graduation, he found himself once again struggling with finding a job. Hana offered him a place to stay but he declined, determined to make his own path.

Thanks to word of mouth, Hale could offer his services of handmade fabrics and designs to those who wanted to stand out, even if those customers were far and few between. When asked why he wears glasses, since all vision issues are correctable, Hale insists its a fashion choice. While unable to make a steady living, Hale's pride is in his ability to do something creative, something he believe can never be replaced by robots or programs.

Gardenia

~ Name ~

Gardenia

~ Appearance ~



~ Age ~

25

~ Personality ~

Energetic, efficient and disruptive.

~ History ~

Being the daughter of The Visionary, Gardenia was raised with high expectations. Before her father kidnapped five strangers, he first bestowed his own daughter with a black shard, needing to test his life's research and Gardenia was eager to volunteer to assist her father in any was possible.Being three years older than the others selected, she has been able to train for three additional years, perfecting her craft as someone who could create pillars of stone and shoot baseball sized rocks from the palm of her hands.

Gardenia never had an interest in academics, nor did her father have a desire for her to waste her time and money that was better spent on his research and projects. Instead, the pink haired woman practices her magic and aided her father in his work. In order to help pay bills, she went out and worked in public spots such as cafes and parks, acting as entertainment. For the most part her rapping and slam poems were ignored by the public or as seen as comedic as opposed to thought-provoking.

Due to her father's reclusive nature, she was soon put in charge of reuniting the other five selected shard wielders. Gardenia learned to embrace flair and presentation from her father who groomed her to be the ring leader of his beloved project. The woman felt uncertain about taking an authoritative position over people she hadn't met before but The Visionary insisted she would be merely a presenter for the show and that they would all have equal time in the spotlight. Being assured, Gardenia elected to retrieve the five others and reunite them on one fateful spring morning.

Not sure if this is still in the works but after some unforeseen conflicts, I am back in the US and as such, able to commit to this if anyone else might be on board.
