Yay! :D How about Nicholas's partner in adventuring (but basically his complete opposite haha):
Name: Bob Vurto (goes by his last name)
Age: 18
Distinguishing Features: Sunken eyes, generally looks tired and irritated all the time, draws in his eyebrows (see hairstyle).
Build: A mere 5'3" in height and skinny, with narrow, sloping shoulders.
Ethnicity: Caucasian.
Gender: Male.
Hairstyle: Completely bald. In fact he has
an autoimmune disorder that causes him to be without any sort of hair, including eyebrows and eyelashes.
Clothing: A black trench-coat.
Pose: Sort of hunched over, one hand in his pocket and the other holding
an ordinary scythe, his weapon of choice (although you can leave out the scythe if it's a bit much .w.).
Expression: An irritated sneer. >:/
Brief Personality: Proud of his own power but distrustful of others, Vurto isn't much of a team player. He wants to work with someone who will appreciate the true extent of his power (not that the spatial magic he wields is anything to laugh at), but he's never happy with what he finds and pushes everyone away as a result. Most people find that his haughty, aggressive tendencies make him very unpleasant to be around, so when he was assigned missions by either of the groups he worked for (and later quit), he was usually sent out alone. Which was just fine, if you ask him.
