Name:
Robert 'Johnathan' CaldWell
Alias:
R.J
Class: Summoner, Mage
Race:
Human
Age:
23
Occupation:
Summoner at the institute of War/one man attraction
Residence:
IoW/Freljord
Alignment:
Lawful Neutral
Abilities:(if needed)
R.J is a summoner and as such has access to most of their spells, though he is average in using those skills. In his youth he learned the basics of ice magic and has only continued to improve in that area with the more he learns at the Institute.
Ice Block- R.J instantly conjures a block of ice that freezes himself protecting him from moderate harmful sources, while inside the ice he suffers from it's chilling effect even with his years of dealing with ice and living in the hazardous Freljord. As long as he is able to focus on keeping it intact it is capable of remaining active for it's full duration.
Cooldown- 1 minute
Range- self.
Duration: 5 seconds
Cold Wave- R.J gathers a collection of ice and frost from the battlefield or channels for a few seconds to create it himself and stores it in his hand, once at this step he concentrates and throws it into the wind towards his target unleashing the magic as an eruption of ice and frost. Anyone who is struck by this is dealt moderate damage due to the bits of ice flying towards them and slows due to the sudden chill one would feel.
Range- 25 feet
Cooldown- 30 seconds
Frostbolt- R.J uses any frost on the battlefield or conjures it on his own to create a bundle of concentrated frost magic in his hands and launches it at his target dealing minor damage and slowing them by a minor amount if struck. If R.J channels for 3 seconds the bolt is increased in size and potency dealing moderate damage, the slowing amount stays the same however.
Range-30 feet
Cooldown- 10 if uncharged, 45 if charged.
Shard Rain- R.J channels and manifests a relatively medium sized cloud of ice at a location, once the cloud has reached it's destination it begins slowly rain shards of ice down upon anyone in the area, if someone were to be struck by one of these shards they'd feel a minor sting at best but of course the pain would only continue to amplify if they remained in the zone and were struck by more. The cloud is able to be moved once by R.J but doing so causes it's lifespan to be cut in half.
Cast Range- Up to 30 feet
Area of Effect range for Shard- 25 feet
Cooldown- 2 minutes AFTER the cloud has despanwed
Duration- 1 minute (obviously cut in half of it's current time if it's moved.)
Misc skills:
Avid writer, keeps a log of his life which he keeps up to date
Capable hunter/tracker
Equipment:
His hat which is sometimes the lair of his pet ferret, Christopher
Relationships:
Parents- Sends a letter to them every few months but aside from that hasn’t seen them face to face since he left for the Institute
Christopher- His pet ferret that he purchased for himself on his 20th birthday
Champions- Only really knows the ones he has summoned onto the fields, if they've visited the institute he hasn't bothered to interact with them.
Aside from that he hasn't strived to make any note worthy relationships
Description:
Height- 5’9
R.J is fairly fit body wise due to doing various chores within the mercenary camp in his younger years, though it is also littered with bruises and scars. His skin color is fairly odd due to a incident during his trial in “The Pit” and he prefers not to talk about it.
He simply wishes to forget the actions he was forced into as a child and move forward with his studies as a Summoner, as a result he focuses much of time on advancing in rank and mastering ice magic.
He found himself somewhat lonely during his studies so he purchased a pet, the ferret named Christopher who he keeps in his needlessly large hat (HA) whenever he goes traveling on his own free time.
Biography:
R.J had the misfortune to be born into a band of mercenaries, his mother and father were too busy with their own work to be dedicated parents so he was rasied by the groups older members and tasked with keeping his fair share around camp with chores, though he knew almost immediately that he was not fit to be the raiding type of mercenary who ran in with blade in hand. Instead he pestered the few mages they had in the group to teach him once he was done with his chores and they weren't busy, they reluctantly agreed and this led to R.J getting what he considered an average ‘education’.
Fast forward to him at age 15 and R.J has become a decent mage specifically in the school of ice magic, he expressed his need to seek further studies at the Arcanum Majoris and eventually become a summoner, he was already in the process of studying for the entrance exams for when he was old enough. The only thing he requested that his parents pay for initial tuition and anything he makes he sends home till he’s paid them back, his parents accepted thinking that because summoners were extremely powerful mages they were also extremely wealthy. Though they too had a request, if R.J were to join and fulfill his wishes he was to pass their groups ‘graduation’ ritual which signified you either becoming old enough to join the adults.
The ritual was known as enduring the horror that lie within “The Pit” where the rite of passage was simple: Kill whatever came for you, or die trying. R.J was tossed in that night, nervous but confident about his ability to come out of this, though what he faced within was simply beyond words. He crawled out of the pit the next morning bloody, exhausted and with his skin color changed, he left for the Arcanum Majoris that night. He graduated at the age of 19 and has spent the last few years striving to advance in rank as well as master the ice magic he found himself fond of.
Long Term Objective:
Rj's first goal is to either remove his ties to his mercenary 'family' or get them to leave their old lives behind, secondly he wishes to be the best mage he can be which is the reason he joined the institute.
Lastly though this isn't a 'goal' so to speak he wants to eventually break the wall of silence or avoidance he has towards people he isn't forced to talk to and actually attempt to be a sociable person to not die old and alone whenever his time as a summoner is over.
