Personality
+Creative: Payton is a creative and a free thinker when it comes to art and painting, often using bright colors and unusual shading to make her work stand out. Outside of art, she applies her creativity to her magic, though not always with successful results.
+Playful: Once you get to know her, she can be a bit playful; often indulging in banter and little pranks. She particularly uses her static spell for such purposes, which is unfortunate particularly for her roommate. As much as she enjoys teasing, however, she knows how to pick her timing and isn't the kind of person who can't take anything seriously.
+Determined: Once Payton puts her mind to something, she'll go to great lengths to see it through, from figuring out the kinks to a spell to getting her way in a project. She approaches things with an almost single minded focus that could sometimes do more harm than good. In the end, she views herself a reliable person and one that her peers to count on when they need something done
-Cautious: As determined as she can be, it isn't often Payton throws caution to the wind, always looking before jumping. While most considers this the quality of someone grounded, it can lead her to hesitate before making that one crucial decision in a battle or not taking an opportunity because of double guessing herself.
-Cynical: For no particular reason Payton can't find it within herself to trust others, especially those she just met and of the male variety. She always questions a person's motivation and personal interests, picking apart their actions with a certain level of scrutiny. It takes some warming up on her end to convince her of no ill intent.
-Workaholic: She tends to drown herself in her work if allowed. She's not stranger to all-nighters and have been known to do group projects all by herself just to ensure it gets down right. When there is nothing for her to do, she gets restless and searches out something to do. Even if it's needlessly cleaning her shared living quarters.
Destined Object
Ornate Belt: She wears it slung loosely across her hips with a string of glass beads extending from the buckle and connecting again in the back.
Trinket?
Leather Belt: A plain leather belt worn loosely around her hips.
Magic Source
Blue Lightning
Transformation Appearance
A blue and gold chest plate that is as tough as steel but as light and flexible as cloth she wears in the style of a halter top, matching shoulder guards extend from it and curve elegantly at the tips. Blue arm warmers encase her arms starting from just below her shoulders and clasp around her thumbs and a set of blue and gold bracers are bound to her wrists. An armored belt extends around her waist and over the pleated skirt she wears over a pair of tights. Over the belt her Destined Object is worn. Blue and gold boots completes the set. When she transforms, strange symbols appear on her skin.
Everyday Appearance
Pacen's features blend together in a monochrome of pales and fairs all accept for her shockingly blue eyes. Standing 5'7", she is a tall and elegant figure, albeit one that is quite angular and boney, who is never seen without a cloak unless she has transformed and always will she be wearing a tunic dress under it. Of course her Destined Object will always accompany her around her slender hips. She wears her blonde hair long despite her preferring it short, but is reluctant to cut it for fear of what her mother may say. Instead, she wears it in random braids more out of convenience than style. It's bad enough her lack of curves makes her feel less feminine than the rest of her peers.
Spells
Static Shock: As long as the target can carry a static charge she can apply this ability to it and upon being touch, administers a small charge. A harmless spell that is used more for pranks than for combat.
Fast Forward: Payton covers her body with lightning that increases her physical speed for a short amount of time.
At Standstill: This spells admits a voltage that can paralyze lesser monsters for a limited amount of time.
Lightning Bolt: Payton discharges a single bolt of lightning that can hit a single target for damage. May take a moment to charge depending on how far the target is and how powerful she intends it to be.
Energy Ball: Payton concentrates her lightning into a single ball that she can fire at a single target but can be used in quick recession; however, doing so reduces the damage caused and can lead to tiring herself out more quickly.

Biography:
• Payton was born out of wedlock between a young Sorceress and a rich merchant.
• Because a bastard child would bring shame to the merchant's family the merchant quickly denied the child as his and turned his back on them.
• Feeling hurt and betrayed, Payton's mother raised her on stories of just how cruel and heartless the world can be.
• She even gave Payton her father's family name just to spite him.
• This ultimately nurtured a more cynical view on the world in the girl.
• Payton's mother works for the Order as a respectable recruiter and as Payton grew older, the less she saw of her.
• While friendly enough, Payton has kept her emotional distance from her peers and definitely doesn't hold much trust for men after hearing such stories of what her mother had described as nothing short of abandonment from the woman.
• The fact most people recognise her surname and try to gain personal favors through friendly gestures, thinking she has some claim to her father's fortune, didn't help her views very much.

Initiation Ceremony
Life in the Order of the Destined started as early as the sunrise, with disciples and members alike being awoken by the sound of pots being beaten with wooden spoons by the help who had to get up even earlier. Unlike most days however, this particular morning was filled with a sense of anticipation, nervous excitement, and even a bit of dread for what was to come. What if they did decided to delay the Initiation Ceremony? But even with the question resting on every other initiates minds, everyone still dressed for the day and meandered on toward breakfast. It wouldn't be until afterwards when they stood in the main hall, with masters and staff lining the edges on the room as Grand Sorceress Elenor and the Grand Warrior Cider looked over the crowd of gathering disciples. The eight to be initiated standing in the front towards the slightly raised stage and their peers standing in neat rows behind them. Some of them barely keeping themselves from fidgeting.
Finally, Grand Sorceress Elenor and Grand Warrior Cide both smiled and raised their hands as four Destined Objects - shrouded so no young Sorceress could them apart - and four sets of armor on stands appeared in a neat line. "When we call your name please step forward and claim what is rightfully yours," The Grand Sorceress chimed. "Payton Macator." The young sorceress in question stiffened before relaxing into a graceful stride. On the inside, though, she was worried. She knew a shroud would prevent her from seeing her Object from afar, but what if the Grand Sorceress made a mistake and hers wasn't there? What if all she continued to see was junk? What if...
Her eyes landed on a belt made entirely of interlocking plates of intricately engraved gold metal with a string of blue and orange glass beads extending from the hollow buckle and connecting again in the back. She never knew love at first sight, didn't believe in it, but the moment that belt was in her hands she was sure the feeling was pretty damn close to it. She clasped it around her narrow hips and and bowed her thanks to the Grand Sorceress, retreating back into the line of the other awaiting Destined.
