Alright, your elaboration on the magic branches truly didn't disappoint. Automancy in specific sounds very appealing to me.
Name: Nia Winters
Age:22
Gender: Female
Occupation: College graduate
Appearance: 5'3 feet, 125lb unremarkable person with nothing really sticking out or catching the eye. Light blue eyes with the faintest hint of turquoise and brown-ish dark/almost black hair round up a face that can be described as amazingly average. Topping off an amazingly average body. The best thing you could say is that she's a little on the skinny side, really.
Personality: Nia is a calm and gentle person. She's not exactly shy, but somewhat reserved around people she doesn't know, specifically crowds. She tends to avoid loud and obnoxious individuals if possible. The girl cherishes a true friendship over everything and is immortally loyal to her close friends but recent happenstances damaged her trust in people significantly, making it difficult for her to connect beyond superficial acquaintanceship. She usually maintains her composure regardless of annoyance or provocation, further reinforcing the impression of a modest and kind, but also slightly dim person - though not actually stupid, Nia can be a bit slow-witted at times.
Magic/Abilities: Her talent for magic is a bit complicated. She's rather inexperienced if not outright untalented in most average and everyday uses of it, anything beyond the scale of sparking a tiny flame already requires a lot of concentration and involves a good chance of fumbling. However, she has developed a real talent for the ability that revealed her affinity to magic initially:
Nia will eventually be able to sense the exact presence and body position of others, provided they are inside a technically confined space. This kind of 'spell' works like a magical version of barometric pressure and temperature monitoring through greatly enhanced perceptive sensitivity of the magic flow. This way she can sense exact body posture and movement which gives her an amazing advantage through highened reflexes and improved reaction times -if- the conditions are met. However, she needs to be in a roughly enclosed space for this ability to work - a house for example, or the inside of a vehicle - and even just opening a window or door to the outside, unenclosed world will swirl the 'magic pressure' (for a lack of better term), completely disabling her ability. This also obviously only works for individuals inside said enclosed space, but it applies to adjacent enclosed rooms, even if there are no direct connections to the room Nia is located in.
Bio: Grown up as a normal girl until recently, Nia never really did or experienced anything extraordinary. For all her life, she was fascinated by fantasy, the idea of magic and the 'supernatural', much like her friends in school. She and her peer spent a good amount of time dreaming about what-if-scenarios and how awesome it would be. Sometime around hitting college she realized the actual magical nature of her talent and upon breaking it to her friends, they rejected her out of envy. During college, with no one sensitive to the mystical world hiding right under everyones noses, she withdrew from most social interaction and graduated with a lack plans or ambitions for the future. Incidentally, this synced chonologically with the world starting to change and she finally came to the conclusion that this must be what fate has designated for her.
Extra:Thus far, her special talent is not fully developed and limited to a certain radius, not really providing the planned advantages in reaction time yet due to the lack of combat experience. Eventually she'll even be able to anticipate movement, making her virtually untouchable under the right circumstances. This is to be considered a highly defensive mechanism with next to no offensive applications, due to reasons that I'm going to withhold for now for the sake of not giving everything away.

Listen to those guys above this post, they're right.
'fraid I'm not of much help at all those topics, coming from someplace in europe where such camps either don't exist or managed to avoid my attention successfully for years. Which is part of the reason why I'm interested in this in the first place, and may or may not be incorporated into my possible character concept.

This sounds rather beautiful. Doesn't happen often that reading the rundown already gives me a ton of inspiration for a possible character. Now, I don't have a 'reputation' around here due to being new to the site, so if that blocks me from participating - advanced section and such - I understand and shall disappear into nothingness, no hard feelings. However if this poses less of a problem for you I'd gladly write up a CS for you to pass judgement on.

Detailed magic system (but I won't be too strict on this)
Various and specific styles and branches of magic.
Intriguing. Depending on how exactly these two points turn out, I might be in for it.
Salutations.
I've been stalk-lurking this site for a while and the burnout on my other roleplaying ressources has now finally driven me to create an account and give it a chance.
I'd call myself an experienced RPer with multiple years worth of roleplay behind me, in form of chats, games and skype convos. This shall be my first forum experience on the matter. I'm most likely fitting into the casual category with ambition to move into high casual, possibly even low advanced once I grow accustomed to how this works. I'm working hard to uphold a certain amount of linguistic propriety in choice of words and grammar, and while I'm aware that expecting the same from others is rather futile, I do have a strong allergy to 'chat speak' being used in RP circumstances (no, you don't save anywhere near enough time typing 'u' instead of 'you' to warrant this butchery of language).
My general fields of interest lie in a good number of games, anime and literature too numerous to realistically make a list of. The more of the following list of attributes fits the lore in item in question, the more likely I'm into it:
dark/grimdark, fantasy, dystopia, drama, thriller, mystery, horror, suspense, anything lovecraftian, mild supernatural powers, tragedy - optionally but not necessarily in context with love, morally gray areas, broken - in a katawa shoujo kind of way - characters.
I'm not a huge fan of combat RP, which is often mirrored in the way my characters react to confrontation, so while not completely averse to it, I tend to weasel my way out of it. Other than that, I can't think of any specific RP-wise limitations... ah well, let's exclude harem rp, just in case.
I guess that briefly covers the basics. Thanks for having me in your virtual domain.

I have the greatest heartache in the world right now, seeing how I could have made an account on here two months earlier when this took off.
