Interested. I am rather partial to the dark knight / holy knight classes but understand why balance must be maintained. Perhaps they should be something to strive for later on.
Just posting to let you know Im still around. Had to disappear for two days due to work, but I'm still keeping an eye on this thread. Looks like our numbers are filling out nicely.
Im up for either way I suppose. If me and Flamelord double up, we can always drop a char later on if someone else wants in. If this does get put on hold, then please shoot me a PM when it starts back up.

Quick to attempt to befriend others, Daniel occupies a quirky role within the Coven, playing both the obligatory “funny guy” and yet also a bit of a sounding board for when people need someone they can go to in order to complain or seek advice. Although he is a fan of using very bad puns and an occasional joke to get others to open up to him, he has always known when to take matters seriously and provide real advice to those who ask for it. In addition, he has never shown much interest in taking a leading role in the Coven, as he feels he better serves in his current role.

Bio:
Daniel was born and raised along the coast of California, in the western United States, the second-born of four children to parents who had immigrated from Ireland. When Daniel's pyrokinesis began to develop, his parents remembered the old stories they had been told as children, and had quietly reach out to their former homeland for someone who could explain what was happening to their son. Fire would inexplicably break out near him, and no matter which way the wind was blowing, the fires would constantly lean towards him, as though attempting to seek him out. While they waited, Daniel's home was quickly fireproofed as best as his parents could manage. Daniel himself was cut off largely from the world around him, his mother home schooled him, his friends could only come over to his house, and he was told that he had a medical condition which would cause him to hallucinate if his blood pressure got too high from stress. Unfortunately, even with all of these precautions, an accident was inevitable.
At the age of 15, Daniel had every reason to believe that he was an ordinary teenager placed in some mildly unusual circumstances. So, like most other teenagers, he began sneaking out at night and exploring the beach alongside the small town in which he lived. He met others his own age, and though the interactions were a bit socially awkward at first, he soon learned that people open up to a person that makes them laugh. He met a girl, and though he plays it off more as a fling than anything else, his first experience with love was a rocky one. When they broke things off, it was hard on Daniel, and when he snuck out again later that night, he went to a pier that stretched out over the ocean. Even Daniel doesn't remember how the fire got started, the next thing he knew, the pier was quickly becoming enveloped in flames, the fires fed by the untrained magic he had unknowingly tapped into. His fear of being burnt alive only fed the fires more, but as the flames reached toward him, he subconsciously willed them back. By the time the Fire department arrived and put out the fire, Daniel had recovered enough to dive into the ocean, but the local news still told the story of the mysterious fire... and the ten foot circle of unburnt wood near the end of the pier.
Conspiracy theorists blamed everything from aliens to super mutants, but although Daniel was not specifically mentioned, it didn't take long for the Coven to discover the story and seek him out. When they sent a representative to collect Daniel, he at first denied them, unable to comprehend that he was really a witch, something out of the old legends. The representative agreed to give him some time to reconsider, but even Daniel began to realise that the Coven was his only hope for learning how to use these new abilities. Two weeks later, he said his good-byes to his family, and moved to one of the Coven safehouses.
The years passed quickly for Daniel, he learned not only how to control his power of pyrokinesis, but that he had developed two additional abilities as well. Although relatively new to the Coven, he was quick to make friends in his new world. When tensions mounted with the Hybrid Covens, Daniel felt it would be wise to split his focus between developing his powers, and learning how to fight with and without his powers. Although he as no personal reason to hate the Hybrids, he feels no need to show mercy to those who threaten the Coven.
