Felix Lancaster

The Magnet Mage


Felix had spent the two days mostly training and decorating his room. He hadn’t had much as far as things when he had arrived, but the rest had been at a camp site not too far away. He had a bit of clothing but many books on magical theory. If any of his father had rubbed off on him, it was the love of researching what magic could do.

All of that knowledge didn’t help him much when it came to sparring with Damian. Without using his magic, the fight was heavily one-sided. Felix couldn’t create constructs on the fly to protect himself. Felix was a bit of a mid-range fighter and so being pulled up close and personal without his ability-enhancing magic was his worst nightmare. However, he did feel like he learned a bit in the match. Of course he didn’t get a scratch on Damian, but he thought he had figured out how.

Felix had spent some time getting to know the other members, even finding time to hold Karn down for a conversation that involved more than just a vigorous handshake and a new nickname, but he still felt a little like a child in comparison to most of the other people there. Felix was young, sure, but he was on par with many of the wizards there. But of course no one really saw that because no one had seen him in a real fight, aside from the first one when he arrived. Even then, fighting a fire mage with magnet magic was not exactly a good thing. Felix didn’t like to broadcast the knowledge that extreme heat could basically nullify his magic, and not getting close helped in that regard.

He, still, enjoyed his time with Fleo. He’d been able to show her his magic and found that their way of constructing objects and their general fighting capabilities were really similar. Felix theorized that their magic would work well in tandem, but without any jobs to do, he didn’t want to suggest forming a team. Maybe later, when there were missions to go on.

Felix walked into the guild hall at the beginning of his third full day as a Phoenix Wing guild member and sighed as Candy assaulted a perfectly good cake. He thought about restraining the running madman, but decided that, unless asked, he probably should stay out of it. He glanced around but saw most everyone was busy. He sat at a table and his stomach growled. He had mostly gone out for food in town, he actually wasn’t completely sure the food situation in the guild hall itself. And he didn’t feel like going out for food alone.

Felix watched intently as the two sparred with a bit more intensity than he had expected from a simple sparring match. Also, this match was definitely not non-magical. He felt he had learned a bit, but till had a long way to go. He turned to the other new members and smiled. "Anyone want to have a match with me, since Damian's down?"

He paused and smiled at Minerva. "That was an amazing match. In fact, I thought you had him several times. I have to ask. My magic gives me a kind-of sense when it comes to metals. The rate at which you moved your sword at times was immensely faster than your normal movements. Does it make you faster?

He was genuinely interested, and not for any tactical reason. He found different applications of magic interesting. HIs magic was a very flexible one, o learning to do new things with magic was always a benefit.

Felix had enjoyed his talk with Fleo but didn't get a chance to discuss their similarities in magical ability. He figured he'd get plenty of time later, though! He was excited to make a fast friend as he had. He could be a bit high-energy for most people, but Fleo didn't seem to want to avoid him for that. In fact, she seemed just as hyper!

Felix didn't get to introduce himself ot the new arrival, a woman he gathered was Minerva, but he figured he'd have another chance in a few minutes.

He glanced to Fleo and Amaya. "Shall we watch? This might give us a chance to learn their habits, though I suppose they don't have many. Still. We could learn a lot." He grinnned at Fleo. "Even us A-Class mages."

He then headed outside to see the sparring match was already underway. At least the preparation was. The two seemed to be waiting for the right moment to strike. Felix eyed them both carefully, and waited for the fight to begin. Or had it already, the moment the two stepped outside? It seems their conversation was as much mental combat as the sparring match would be physical.
Out of curiosity are Damian's Blades magical constructs or actually metal blades? Wondering for when Felix wants to spar with him. If they're metal, it might be a real challenge for Felix to not use his magic against metal blades.

Sidenote, I'm posting as you read this! (Or have posted. Timey-wimey.)
I am o sory I haven't posted! I just started a new job and I'm having rouble balancing my new schedule. I have been keeping up with the rp though and will post ASAP.

Felix's frown deepened a bit as the master told them that they could not take a job. He perked up, however, when Damian offered a sparring match with no magic.

First, he leaned over and said softly to Fleo, "Why don't you join us for a sparring match?"

Felix nodded towards Damian. "Sounds good. I have a bit of non-magical combat training, but not a lot. I'd be grateful to learn more. And as wizards, or as people in general, shouldn't we always be trying to learn and grow?"

He honestly wasn't sure how he felt about Damian. The man seemed brash and maybe even rude. His comment to Fleo in front of everyone weren't exactly polite and welcoming, and the way he answered Felix's questions earlier rubbed him the wrong way as well. At least on first impressions Damnian seemed to lack tact. However, a sparring match was at least something to do.

Suddenly, however, the premature darkness settled in and Felix sighed. It had already been an eventful day. What else could be happening?

Felix frowned a bit but nodded. It did answer his questions, but he wouldn't deny his disappointment in the answers. He had been a bit afraid of the idea that he'd just be doing jobs instead of doing jobs AND research, but he supposed he could always do so on his own. He was a bit more perterbed about the thought of everyone being on their own as far as training went. He figured, again, that maybe he could get a sparring partner at some point.

He listened to Master Jamie as the master explained the ways the jobs functioned. He listened, then looked at Amaya. "Well then, why don't we go on a job together? We could easily knock one out."

The doors burst open and another entered, Felix looked and raised an eyebrow.
I'm so sorry it took so long! I've been preparing for my vacation this weekend. I should still be able to post while not home, but I wanted to make sure I posted now.
