Race: Human
Age: 28
Occupation: Bounty Hunter
Residence: Wandering / Shadow Isle

Abilities:
Guns: Tobias wields two custom made revolvers, each with an extended barrel for improved accuracy, and a modified chamber roll. The guns have been specially crafted to absorb Tobias' energy to enhance his shots.
Skills:
Passive: Re-Loading Sleeves: Built into the sleeves of his coat, Tobias possesses two automatic reloading mechanisms made to work with the modified chambers of his guns. By simply placing the chamber against the end of the mechanisms, he can reload his guns in 4 seconds.
Tobias' guns can each hold 6 shots, allowing him 12 total shots before reloading. Tobias can load up to 60 bullets in his re-loader.
Q: Spirit Shot - Tobias charges his gun with energy, causing a different effect depending on what shot he selects. The cooldown of these effects is determined by the ability used;
- Power Shot: Tobias charges a gun with spirit energy, enhancing the power behind the shot. The shot then hits for moderate physical damage, coming out accompanied by a large blast of energy which deals moderate magical damage. Consumes 1 bullet. Tobias can use this shot when out of ammo, but it only shoots the energy, dealing moderate magical damage.
Cooldown: 14 seconds

- Long Shot: Tobias charges a gun with spirit energy, increasing the duration of the bullet's flight, allowing it to go a farther distance before stopping, dealing minor physical damage and minor magical damage.

Cooldown: 8 seconds
Range: 20 feet
W: Spectral Lasso - Tobias creates a lasso out of spirit energy, using it to capture his target. Tobias throws the lasso around target enemy, which then wraps around them, that he then pulls to knock the enemy down for 1 second. Tobias can pull the lasso to move the target closer to him. This effect only occurs to targets up to a weight limit. Heavier targets are rooted for 1 second instead.
Cooldown: 15 seconds

Cooldown: 8 seconds
Range: 15 feet
R: Call of the Grave: Tobias attempts to finish off his prey, sealing them down. Tobias summons 3 spectral chains made of spirit energy in a pentagon shape out of the ground from 10 feet around his target, which fly towards the target. If any of the chains manage to attach to the target, they all fly to that area and attack to the target, rooting it in place for 1.5 seconds. During this time, Tobias charges up a large spirit shot over 3 seconds, which deals heavy magical damage.
Cooldown: 2 minutes
Range: 10 feet
Other:
Horse: Tobias travels around on a horse that was raised from death for him. Able to summon it at will, the horse is simply a skeleton, the bones turned black, with the insides willed with blue energy, appearing like fire, equipped with only a saddle. The horse has a few enchantments placed on it, able to move at faster speeds and reconstruct when destroyed. Summoning the horse takes a lot of energy, and as such Tobias can only muster that amount once a day.
Relationships:
No significant ones at the moment to speak of. He has a few colleagues he works with frequently, but none of note.
Description:
Tobias is a tall man, standing 6’1" and fairly muscular. He has black hair, which he usually hides beneath his hat, alongside light stubble along his chin and brown eyes. He has an assortment of scars across his body, most notably a circular one on his upper left chest from where he was shot, which has a series of tattoos around it, and one on his cheek. He is almost always seen wearing a custom made duster coat and his signature hat. The coat is a faded beige, not ragged but clearly worn down from his travels. It has a few straps on leather on his shoulders, alongside two strips at the end of either sleeve that cover his automatic reloading mechanism. His hat is a dark brown with a beige ring, and a small piece torn from it. He always has a pair on holsters around his waist, housing his pistols. He typically wears a white bandana around his heck, a pair of leather gloves, a yellow button up shirt and a pair of jeans. Over these he wears a pair of dark leather chaps, and a pair of brown cowboy boots.
Tobias is not a very logical person, almost always motivated by his emotions. He is very in the moment, often allowing his judgement to be clouded by personal feelings at the time and not through logical judgement. Despite his role in life now, he is “old fashioned,” believing that certain things are a man’s duty. Tobias looks at his work seriously and calmly, viewing it as a typical job. Whether on the hunt for a human bounty or one for the isles, Tobias is always calm and collected, focusing on the hunter at hand, but ruthless in his methods. In battle, Tobias often let's his emotions once more take over, losing his calm do to his enjoyment and acting crazily. Tobias often retains a lot of bad habits from when he was alive, such as smoking, despite no longer being able to truly feel them, simply because they remind him of what it was like to be alive.
Biography:
Born in the outskirts of the Shurima desert, Tobias grew up accustomed to a hard life. With very few settlements out there, life was difficult, and people often resorted to stealing and looting to survive, alongside the predators that attempted to poach his families animals. To counter this, Tobias’ father taught him at a young age to use a pistol to defend himself and his family. He proved to be a natural at it, and spent most of his life practicing his aim whenever possible. When Tobias turned 18, money was tight for his family, so Tobias began hunting down local criminals in an attempts to earn money. Anyone who he found was shot down fast and quickly, earning Tobias the title of “fastest gun in Shurima” by the time he was 20. Various gangs and criminals tried to get him to join them, but he always refused. One leader, however, grew tired of Tobias’ denials, and gave him an ultimatum; join him, or die. Suffice to say, despite his best efforts to fight them off, Tobias was captured, take out into the wilderness, and shot in the chest; left for dead.
This was not the end for Tobias however. As he laid dying, he was approached by Alasdair, who made an offer to him. He could die here, or he could pledge himself to the Shadow Isle, acting as a servant for them. At first skeptical, Tobias was unsure, but the fear of death and desperation inside him drove him to accept the deal. Marked with a tattoo in his chest where he was shot as a reminder of his debt, Tobias was left to begin his new journey in life.
Once he had regained his strength, Tobias returned home to find his ranch deserted; his family having been killed and the place looted for supplies. He managed to gather up his pistols and some clothing through the rubble, then headed off to town, looking to find those who did this. Upon entering the town, he found soon it was the same man who had killed him, and he swore vengeance on him. Taking the man’s wanted poster in hand, he set off, looking for him. Finding him a few weeks later, he quickly dispatched the mans gang and attacked him, shooting him right between the eyes. The feeling of killing the man felt right to Tobias, and it was that feeling that made him change his outlook on his work to the isles.
With no where else to go, Tobias made his life as a bounty hunter, waiting for calls for the Shadow Isle. As time went on, Tobias served the Isle diligently, working as a hunter for certain targets. Rising the ranks, Tobias was gifted with more power and strength, reaching a high Tier 2 position as an Infused Undead. Always waiting for the call to serve the isles, Tobias waits eagerly for the chance to prove himself more.
