Dawn of a New Age - The Return of Magic

_{2 Weeks Ago}

"So Mr. Whitaker, this is the academic probation contract. I need you to sign here..and here and initial here." the counselor said with indifference while she sipped her coffee and pointed out the different sections.

"Is this really necessary, I have just been dealing with some....changes in my life right now, and I only messed up this semester because I-" Neil was cut off by the slam of her cup.

"That is irrelevant Mr. Whitaker, your GPA as exceedingly low this semester and we expect academic excellence from all our students, now if you have some kind of personal problem them maybe your should have lightened your load when you could have but now is not he time. So please just sign the contract so we both can go on about our day." She said with a scowl and then looked back at her computer.

Neil did not say anything else and simply clenched his fist under the desk and starred holes into the contract. If he wanted to continue with school he needed to get this signed before the start of the new semester which was in too days. But he could not just tell her he spent most of the semester holed up in his room learning how to control this 'magic' he now has before he did something bad. But NOOOOOOO!! This old hag wants to make things even harder for him, and now he has some things to decide. Instead he grabbed the contract and got up.

"Well you know what, I will tun in this fricking contract when I want to, so you can go pile sand." He said with anger as he stormed out.

"You still only have to days to turn it in Mr.Whitaker." She said unfazed as he left.

Neil has been trying to fix his first semester all winter break and his 'academic advisers' have not been helping at all so now he is stuck with a dilemma; either find a way to pay for a whole year of college or drop out and save up by getting a job. He was walking back to his dorm and when he got to the first floor of his hall he checked his mail. There was a letter addressed to him with no return address, so he took it back up stairs with him. When he got to his room and opened the letter, Neil had to read it 3 times before he believed this "Gavin" guy was real and if what he said was true then Neil needed to leave school any ways. Neil did what was necessary to drop out and then packed one bag and left the school. He would miss Vegas, but whoever might be after him could have already been waiting for the perfect chance.

Is Illinois cold this time a year. He thought to himself as he waited to board his plane.

_Present

Brightwell, Illinois, the flight was not to bad but now he was here in this noting of town and he already missed home. He knew that he was running late to meet whoever this guy was and he assumed some others. The moment his cab got into the city, he felt a pull, towards something. So he had been guiding the cabby by instinct to a motel, The Garfield Motel to be exact. He stepped out and paid the man his money, grabbed his bag and stepped inside. There where other people already here and he could tell they where all mages as well, just a hunch he was having and he could also tell who Gavin was and he walked over to greet him.

"Hey...ummm my names is Neil Whitaker and I got your letter, along with some others so I am here yeah." He said this and then stepped off to the side, his awkward introduction. and set his bag next to him.

Neil

Name:
Neil Whitaker
Age:
20

Physical Description:
Neil stands at 5'9 and weighs around 165 pounds. He is very skinny but he still has a large frame. He has no blemishes or scars but has three tattoos, one on his right forearm and the other two on his upper arms.

Important items:
A pack of menthol cigarettes, his smartphone, Denis, and a satchel.

Short Bio:
Neil was grew up in Downtown Brooklyn, New York. He was raised on the streets by a veteran and learned how hard life could be. This man would not tell him who his parents were or if they were alive, the only thing he told Neil was that he was legally his and that's all that mattered.

His caregiver always taught him that he needed to get his education stick up for himself and work hard so that he could get out of the streets.Neil lived by this mans words and grew up getting A's and B's in all through out K-12. He was always seen as the kid with raggedy clothes who had a smell and would be picked on for this but no matter what he would not go down without a fight. This strengthened him and made him even more rebellious. Every day was a challenge for him and it was these challenges that made him better and stronger and steeled his resolve.

When he graduated he went off to UNLV for college, at the wishes of his dead "father"(to go to college in general). He moved to Nevada and started college, and boy did he start. With little to no money he got a job and lived on campus, but was still a fighter. He earned a reputation and was none not to be messed with, this drove many to associate him with the "bad boy" but really he is laid back but stubborn. It was during finals week of his first year, his first final to be exact, that he saw the visions, angelic and grotesque creatures throbbed throughout his mind clouding his answers but filling his body with a warm sensation, as if electricity was flowing through his veins. He did not finish that test and ran out the room and back to his dorm. When he got back the surge of power became to much and he ended setting his room on fire. It was considered an accident and his room mate was not hurt but he went on the run anyway and has been living that way since.

Skills:
Dare Devil: Neil is not afraid to do crazy things that most others would not, throwing caution to the wind is his kind of fun.
Knife Fighter: His father taught him how to fight with and throw knives, the man would say "guns are for men who don't like to fight".

Flaws:
Hothead: Neil can be very stubborn and he has authority issues as well, this can make him irrational and one to follow his gut rather than listen to reason.
Weak Physique: Neil is naturally skinny, he is not inherently strong but is light weight and fast

Spell List:
Soild Change (Change): Neil can change sold objects into other solid objects. Whether it be sand into stone or gold into cotton. He has to be touching the object in order for the spell to work.
Non-Solid Change (Change): Neil can change any substance that is not a solid into another substance that is not a solid. He also has to be in physical contact with the liquid in order for the spell to work.
Slow Down (Timespace): Neil can slow down time for a short period (i.e it will only last for about 10ft) and move around freely, during such time.
Portal (Time Space): He can open a portal to any place that he has a mental image of, the portal takes about 2 minuets to open. The more clear the image; like sights, smells, and details the better and safer the travel will be.
Body Change (Change): Neil can change the anatomy of his body to help him, like making his bones stronger to receive impact or reshape his muscles to make him run faster. The spell last about 5 mins a piece and he can only change one group on his body at a time.
Size Change (Change): He can increase or decrease the size of any object. The smaller or larger he makes something the closer he has to be to it for the spells affects to not wear off, also if the initial size is smaller or larger it will take more magic to make it grow.

The Order of the White Lily

Alfie had just returned from a walk near the guild. He was walking Spat and the dog found a herb that Alfie had never felt or smelt before. Some might think that a blind man walking around out side by himself was not wise, but many of the other members know that on his first few days here Alfie familiarized himself with the local surroundings and also the inside, plus he had Spat so there is not to much to worry about.

He had been on a few missions but so far the only ones who knew about his combat capabilities where Athena, Hygiea, and the Guild Master Ares, this meant most of his guild mates either underestimated him or just did not associate. He did get along with Hygiea, they would discuss different medicines, and treatments for ailments (more her teaching him).

So that is what he was going to do now in his down time, ask her another question about this herb he hand never used before. He walked into the guild and let Spat navigate him through the hall past the front desk and into the market place so he could talk to her.

"Hello again Hygiea, I have brought another one I found while out and about and was wondering what it is?" He said showing her the herb.

Occupation before joining the guild: Warrior Monk/Hunter

Origin

Basic origin story: Alfie was born blind, something rare in Draykon. They did not know what to do with him so for the first few years of his life he grew up locked away, his parents where simple coal miners in Glour so this type of thing was new to them. A man had come to their door dressed in long robes, and said that he had heard of their child and offered to take him and teach him how to live, Alfie's parents could not pass up this chance, not only could this be their only chance to get ride of their broken child, but also restore their reputation with their small community. So they did and but unbeknown to them they had given Alfie to nomadic tribe of Warrior Monks.

These monks where known to migrate throughout three different countries: Glinnery for meditation and learning ones self, Glour for pilgrimages and training, and Orstwych for fighting, and purifying. These monks where known for taking in lost children and turning them into warriors that live by a code. There are only 20 or so at a time and usually one that leads the rest in experience and age. Alfie was 7 when his training officially began and it was a rough childhood, learning how to live and "see" with his blindness, learning to use it to feel the land and area around him. When he turned 12 after going through many migrations with his new family he was deemed ready to start his combat training.

He trained, fought, and grew as a person. As a young man he was some what restless, there where so many sounds and feelings he had yet to experience. So may things outside of the 3 countries he had consistently walked and traveled through. His master or "father" saw this and decided to cast him out, saying he was young and not fit to live with young children and old men. So Alfie left in the night, not really knowing where he was going and walked for days, until he slipped into a village in Nimdre. There he met a woman and, he was 20 by now, and began to live with her breaking his vows as a monk, falling in love, even getting married.

They lived in a village close to the border of Ullarn and Nimdre, and this is where the problem arose. One day they went out as usual to pick fruits and check their traps, Alfie had wandered off to make sure certain things were in order and their village was attacked. Bandits had attacked they came to loot, steal, raid and pillage everything in sight. He lost his wife and child, kidnapped, and turned back to his vows and the warrior monk life. He started to do jobs with his only friend a dog named Spat. He just recently joined the guild, only hearing about them once or twice, them he met a member of the guild who introduced him to the right people after recognizing his skill.
