Modeled loosely after one of my heroes, Criss Angel. Yes, I'm an obsessive girl, get over it. 
Name: Criss
Gender: Male
Age: 19 Years
Rank: Pawn
Race: American/Greek
Personality: Since he was little, Criss has always been fascinated by the unknown. He hates the thought of living life normally, and he always lives life his own way. The boundaries of what is real and what is not do not hold him, and he has always been in pursuit of magic and the paranormal. However, he has no desire whatsoever for power. He loves life the way it is now, with nature and man being balanced perfectly. Overall, he prefers to be outdoors, and loves trying new things. Being in a city or an area of civilization for too long drives him mad, and he avoids them if he can. Not saying he isn't reclusive or shy, no, he loves talking to people when he does meet them. But most of the time, he prefers to stay out of everybody else's way. When he does come across people, which is rare, he is often untrusting at first, but never unkind. He actually makes the best out of interacting with people, and whenever he does come in contact with them, he always manages to make friends. He's never mean to anybody, and has no aggressive bones in his body whatsoever. If he were to be involved in a conflict, he would get out of it in a pacifist's way, using words to resolve things rather than brute force.
Description: Overall, at first glance, Criss can be described in simple one word phrases: dark, emo, goth, scary, creepy, and so on. And, well, he does wear dark clothes, but there isn't much of a real reason for it. He expresses himself through his actions, and not his clothes, though he does have his own signature style. His shirt changes from day to day, though it is almost always black or another dark colour. Flashy bright colours are not his style, and he prefers to fall in with the crowd rather than stand against it. So darker, neutral shades are his calling. As for his pants, they are almost always blue or black jeans, sometimes with chains attached to them. His shoes are sturdy, usually boots, and are almost always black as well. He is a big fan of wearing chains and necklaces around his neck, and is never seen without them. He has a ring on almost every finger on his right hand, and he cannot remove some of them. His clothing is very unimportant to him though, and he doesn't focus very much on it. His physical appearance, which is far more important in maintaining to him, is just as unique. He is on the tall side, reaching about 5'10'' tall and weighing in at around 165 pounds. He's pretty muscular, though it isn't quite noticeable underneath his clothes. If he happens to not be wearing a shirt though, mostly all of his upper muscles are highly toned and developed. It is obvious that he is very physically fit. He is pretty skinny as well, though that is unnoticeable as well beneath the fair bit muscle on his abdomen. Either way, underneath his clothes, he looks just about average. As for his facial features, he is about average as well. His eyes don't betray his emotions, and his face is almost always unreadable. His eyes are mainly amber, with just the smallest hint of green to them. He has a small cleft in his chin, but for the most part, he has no notable features. His hair is his biggest feature though, and is perhaps his personal trademark. It rarely stays the same for too long, though it is usually a dark black or brown colour. It varies in length, though it most often remains at shoulder height, always ragged and shaggy looking.
History: Criss was born to a happy couple named Dimitra and John. He began to learn about the unknown from a young age, and had always been fascinated by it. Unlike most children, he always spent his time outdoors or with his pets. He owned two cats, a black one named Minx, and a brown tabby named Hammy. He always loved animals, and was very fond of his two cats, treating them as members of the family. His parents had always been proud of him for being such a great learner, and he was always eager to please his family. He learned for his own sake and for theirs. One day though, his father developed cancer of the stomach, and passed away soon after. From then on, things were different. Obviously, young Criss was devastated, and he took a change for what seemed to be the worst. He left home then, taking to the life of a wanderer, and from then on, he's been traveling by himself. He came to the mysterious lands of Echo, mainly by chance. He hadn't been looking for a place to go, but he stumbled upon it, and it was there that he met his new companion for life. A young male cougar, whom he named Miro. He quickly befriended the young cat, and from then on, the two have been traveling as a pair, inseparable.
