Mind:(Your mental facilities. [...] It also help with magic, but only a little since your scientific mind is trying to say that this is impossible.)
((Would it work better by claiming it's more of a finesse thing with magic, and how to best using what you have? It doesn't really make sense for someone who was born with magic to partially reject it on scientific grounds.))
Name: Cyrus Leryl/Umbral Arrow
Gender: Male/female
Appearance: 11 years old Caucasian, short brown hair, blue eyes. He is short, thin, and looks slightly underfed. He tends to wear Pokemon T-shirts and jeans.
Umbral Arrow looks to be of a similar age and build, but looks to be Japanese and has purple hair and eyes. Her uniform is predominately a dark, faded purple, with slightly lighter, brighter purple trim. It is a very lacy and has many purple ribbons (dark enough to not stand out in the darkness). She has a mid-thigh-length skirt, knee-high socks, and a short sleeved shirt with a partially-open back. Long-sleeved fingerless gloves go up to two inches from the end of the sleeves. Her hair is in two pigtails, hangs just behind her arms, and reaches down between her sleeves and arm warmers.
Personality: Cyrus tries to act as what he thinks is 'mature', and is generally somewhat pessimistic. He tends to have a book and a Gameboy on hand. He likes getting praised, Pokemon, and learning new things. / Contrary to expectations from her outfit, Umbral Arrow is nearly always happy, upbeat, and enthusiastic. She loves the thrill of the hunt, epic things, and girly stuff (dolls, chick-flicks, shopping).
Power: Divination (tarot cards, tea leaves, and the like)/close-ranged shadow control. Her tested powers are extending a short field around herself to move silently and unseen (if the newly dark area isn't suspicious), manifesting shadowy weapons (an elaborate bow, arrows, and a shiv), and a form of teleporting from one very dark area to another (only to line-of-slight or particularly well-known areas, exhausting).
General archetypes: weird bookish kid, PERFECTLY RELIABLE intel/stealth, recon, archer
Background: He lived a mostly normal life until he was ten, living in a fairly small town with only his mother and grandmother. His mother was usually busy, and they never bonded closely. His grandmother taught him various divination techniques, despite his repeated statements that they were either uselessly vague or fake. On his tenth birthday, he learned that his family had had an unbroken line of magical girls through the generations. With his mother no longer able to have children, he was forced into the role with a surprise power-granting ritual. His grandmother sensed that a great oncoming darkness was now inevitable, and said it could wait no longer. The strain of the ritual cost his grandmother her life.
He has spent the last year trying to avoid his 'fated' role, both resenting it for killing his grandmother and a deep dislike of transforming into a female, only changing form a handful of times. He spent most of his time buried in school-work or practicing divination, occasionally getting roped into joining his mother on her hunts.
He doesn't actually care about the change while in Umbral Arrow form, which further disturbs him when he reverts.
