Okay! Here it is then! It's a shorter character BIO than I'm used to but I just did what you said.

Name - Minakshi Panja (She prefers being called Mina as no one can really say her name in America) (Minak-she pan-ju)

Age - 22

Height - 5'6

Weight - 125lb

Sex - Female

Heritage- Hindu

First Mythological Contact - She experienced a poltergeist of her father.
Speciality - She knows a lot about mythological creatures and how to get rid of them. Mina is best at taking care of poltergeists, ghosts, and demons.
Other Contact - She nearly died when she was captured by several Fae that spent their sweet time playing with her. Despite being good at banishing poltergeists she hesitates a lot because it reminds her of how her father looked as one.

Brief History: As a kid she was protected from the horrors that existed in the world. This all changed soon after her father's death as he came back as a bloodthirsty poltergeist. That day Mina's mother had to reveal her experience with mythological creatures and banish him. From there Mina had to grow up quickly and learn to defend herself. When she came of age she left for the U.S, specifically Maine where, upon her arrival, got captured by Fae. Before they could do away with her the guild saved her and ended up asking her to join.
Magic Class - Ritual
Spell Book - Rune, Banishment, Transport Chain

Weapon - Dagger (But she's not very good at using it. It's more for show…)
Shield - None
Charm - Memory Charms

Other: She is kind of like a mother to everyone because she wants people's lives to be better than hers was but she can get extremely serious. She loves cooking but all of her food is a bit to spicy for literally everyone.
 
Phoebe Nalarputra 2.jpg

Name: Phoebe Nalarputra

Age: 25


Height: 5'3


Weight: 120 lbs


Sex: Female


Heritage: Mixed (Kenyan and Indonesian (Mostly Javanese))


First Mythological Contact: Fae


Specialization: Fae, Succubi/Incubi, and Death Wards


Other contact: Demons and Shapeshifters (namely sirens). She often assisted on missions involving these with her old guild. She's not quite as proficient dealing with these, though, and can only manage a select few shapeshifters well.


Brief History: Phoebe's family had long said they'd been touched by Fae. Creative and imaginative, the line of painters, musicians, writers, designers, dancers, and those driven by self-expression seemed to fall prey to what they could only call the Bard's Madness. It was in this family, as the latest in a line of creators, that Phoebe was born into and primed for an existence dealing with the supernatural.


Her mother, an immigrant from Indonesia, and her father met in New York, and after some time, had Phoebe. It was only a few years into Phoebe's early life that her father went mysteriously missing. While he was a man prone to fantasy and long hours trying for success as a musician, he was still a dutiful and responsible man when it came to his family. It was this incident, her father's kidnapping by the Fae, that would later lead to Phoebe's first interaction with the supernatural.


Her father's missing persons case would ultimately go unsolved, however, for many years. Her mother, while actually well-versed in the supernatural due to old ties to guilds in Java, suspected there was something strange about her partner's disappearance. Ultimately, she was unable to find new leads, and was led to raise Phoebe alone. On more than one occasion when she was young, often under the care of a less than attentive uncle, Phoebe saw the small ethereal figures of Fae watching her. It was only as she grew older that she realized something was wrong with this.


The realization came too late, however, because at the age of 17, she too was drawn in by the Fae. It was only due to her mother's warnings after first hearing about Phoebe's 'fantasies' involving her visions of the Fae, that Phoebe resisted drinking or eating anything while in their care. She was able to do this just long enough before local guild members found her and rescued her. It was after this event that Phoebe began to become more involved with the supernatural, and even joined the guild based just outside the small town of Clarksville, New York.


This, ultimately, would be shortlived. After several years, a catastrophic event led the guild to ultimately dissolve. Phoebe took up the hunt on her own, occasionally partnering with hunters she met along the way, to continue the work she started. Despite her hunting and frequent absences, she still tries to remain in contact with her mother.


Magic Class: Ritual

-Rune
-Protection
-Mirror Image (used very rarely)

Extra: Often has a few tubes of paint to paint runes and symbols, as well as a knife in case her magic fails or if she needs to physically carve runes/ symbols into a surface. Also wears a decent amount of jewelry of different kinds, often depending on what she's hunting, to give her an edge. These, however, are otherwise mundane pieces of jewelry.

e4fcfaf7d01f0b43ae7bbc72066b7e81.jpg

Name:
Elion Bilar

Age:
26

Height:
6'0''

Weight:
160

Sex:
Male

Heritage:
Estonian and Celtic

First Mythological Contact:
Elion had first encountered the "unknown" at the young age of 6. His family was attacked by necromancers when they lived isolated from the city, killing his father and his older brother. Luckily, his mother and younger sister were safe.
Specialty:
Chimera, Shapeshifters, and Hydra
Other Contact:
While traveling through an old forest, he encountered a chimera that had been preying on another human. He attempted to kill it, but since he had just started creature hunting, he had to retreat with scars to tell the tale. Months later, however, he was able to find the same chimera and defeat it, but it sure didn't go down without a fight.

Brief History:
After hearing many rumors throughout his childhood that his lineage came from Fae, Elion decided to go down a path to investigate. The young male had discovered his elemental abilities as a teenager, and he trained mercilessly until he was able to somewhat grasp the magic. He also harbored bitterness for dark magic, or torturous souls that preyed on the innocent because of the death of his father and his older brother. At this realization, he decided to pursue a guild. Although he is an elementalist, he refuses to learn any dark spells for fear of losing himself, even if it harbors his growth as a hunter. However, to make up for that lack of interest, he pursues all elemental spells, so as to be skilled in all areas of the elements. Though he has a long way to go before he can call himself a "master elementalist", Elion has a passionate soul and a goal to fight towards. He still is unsure of his Fae bloodline, but he is sure of his pointed ears and elemental abilities. Elion left his mother and sister behind, unwillingly, to try and pursue the path of his unknown origins, and to become a hunter that the world of dark magic will be forced to see...

Magic Class:
Elementalist
Spell Book:
-Weightless
-Imprison
-Frost Breath
Weapon:
Bow and arrow; Elion became skilled with this weapon should his magic run out during a battle
Other:
Elion tends to keep to himself for the most part and likes to do missions on his own. When paired with others, he begrudgingly accepts, but has the reputation of being aloof and isolated. However, he has a rather dry sense of humor and easily starts to open up to others if he's in a group for a large amount of time. He also loves sour things and has a soft spot for baby animals.

Jian Dai.jpg

Name: Jian Dai


Age: 26


Height: 5'9


Weight: 175


Sex: Male


Heritage: Chinese-American


First Mythological Contact: Shui Gui (ghost)


Specialization: Ghosts, Poltergeists, Demons


Other Contact: Shapeshifters tend to be most common. His very flexible power set have made him a good go-to for many missions, though.


Brief History: Jian lived an incredibly normal life, as far as the supernatural influence in it went. Born as the second son to two stern parents with high expectations, Jian was always trying to live up to what everyone else had planned for him as well as the example his older brother had already made. He followed these expectations religiously and to the letter. He excelled in academics, in every club and extracurricular and every area of life he'd been expected to excel in. With so much on his plate, though, the already withdrawn boy was further isolated with his lack of time for much else beyond trying to live the life he had to.


Still, the expectations were always high. He had to do even more than excel, he had to rise above even his brother's examples to be noticed in his efforts by his parents. Driven by the need to appease his family's expectation, he went through grade school and then the first four years in a pre-med program with few friends to speak of.


It was at the age of 23, already deep into the curriculum of his post-grad life, that he finally cracked under the pressure. Unable to handle continuing the life path that didn't make him happy and suffering under the crippling self-doubt and loneliness, he ended up dropping out of school entirely. Fearing the backlash from his parents, he decided to not return home, and ended up fleeing from his college in a desperate fit to just get away from everything he'd known.


In the process, he'd stumbled across a Shui Gui. Very narrowly avoiding being drowned by the malevolent ghost, he stumbled back into society shaken to the core. Everywhere he looked, the more he saw signs of what was certainly not natural.


It was after several more encounters with the supernatural that he ended up recruited by the guild, where he has since learned Dark magic and helped the guild keep knowledge of the supernatural from the general public.


Magic Class: Dark


-Lurk
-Give In
-Silhouette


Extra: Jian is pretty sure his shadow has a sick sense of humor, given that it quite frequently demands hearts as payment for aid in fights, since it had been a sincere consideration of his to become a cardiologist before deciding medical school wasn't for him.

Name: Amal Kaddouri


Age: 21


Height: 5'7


Weight: 142 lbs


Sex: Female


Heritage: Somali (raised in a Muslim household)


First Mythological Contact: Dhegdheer (Demon)


Specialization: Demons, Witches, and Chimera


Other contact: She had a run-in with a particularly vicious Dullahan one time, and was lucky to get the blow in that she did that killed it.


Brief History: Amal had a fairly quiet upbringing all things considered, raised in a Muslim household tied to a local guild in Somalia. Political upheaval in Somalia led to her family fleeing to neighboring countries as refugees, and much of Amal's late childhood and early teens were spent on the move or seeking asylum in other nations. Bouts of bad luck seemed to follow them, resulting in unfortunate events, deaths in the family, and multiple run-ins with the supernatural.


She eventually moved to the United States, where she briefly took a chance at living a relatively normal life. Such an attempt was soured when her little brother was captured by witches for their own nefarious purposes. Managing to rescue him, though neither of them unscathed, she soon found a role within the Broken Beast Maine guild as yet another member. She doesn't often speak of her history, preferring to keep conversation away from her personal life. For the most part, she doesn't seem to suffer much from her past, though. There are the lingering effects of few incidents, but she has remained largely unbothered.


Weapon: A scimitar passed down to her through her family.

Charm: She's charmed her hijabs with protection spells. They make her unable to be possessed by demons and poltergeists, and resistant to magical attacks, reducing them to half damage when used against her.


Shield: It's the pendant of the necklace she wears, but a small charm inscribed on the back allows her to bring it to the size of a decent shield.
