Arthur Mandrake

Arthur is a student at Hexside's School of Magic and Demonics, studying under the Beastkeeping and Potions track. However, his goal is to become a wild witch instead of joining any coven system.

## Appearance

Arthur is a 16-year-old Biped Demon with long, brown hair he ties into a ponytail. His eyes are fully colored blue, with dark-blue slits for pupils. He has a pale skin color, a gray shirt with baggy sleeves, black pants and brown boots. He also has a belt with a gold buckle. His tail pokes out from his pants, which is long and skinny with a tuft of brown fur on the end.

## Personality

Arthur carries himself very similarly to a young Eda, very carefree and rebellious. However, Arthur is more focused on studying and learning about the world around him instead of pranks. He'd rather simply ignore people that play any jokes. He finds the Coven System incredibly stupid, and would gladly fight the Emperor's Coven if he knew about the groups against them.

## Powers and Abilities

**Magic:** Like most Witches and Biped Demons, Arthur can cast spells and magic thanks to the bile sack attached to his heart. Arthur is incredibly skilled with magic thanks to his constant studies, but actually struggles with new spells.

* **Elemental Magic:** Arthur's favorite spells are basic elemental ones. In a fight, he commonly will use several elemental spells, either singularly or combining several types to create powerful combo spells.
* **Beastkeeping Magic:** Arthur has an interest in Beastkeeping magic, and knows several tricks to trap creatures of the Boiling Isles. In a fight, Arthur likes to summon giant beasts to fight alongside him.
* **Potions:** Arthur works part-time in a potions store for some spending snails, and uses the track at Hexside to learn more about them. His Beastkeeping magic also helps with his job.
* **Telekinesis:** Arthur can coat objects in an orange energy and move them with a wave of his hand.
* **Force Fields:** Arthur uses these to block out attacks or boiling rain.
* **Teleportation:** Arthur can teleport in a flash of orange light within a limited distance.

**Shapeshifting:** Arthur's specific species of Biped Demon are shapeshifters. He can transform into anything that is smaller than his normal size, but cannot change his color or voice, and does not gain any properties of the objects he becomes.

**Flight:** Using his staff, Arthur can fly around the Boiling Isles. Arthur is self-taught and very comfortable with flying, despite having a fear of heights anywhere else.

**Staff Proficiency:** Arthur can use his staff as a melee weapon, and is well-skilled in using it in a fight. However, he prefers not to unless he casts some kind of protection spell on it, as he feels bad for his palisman.

## Equipment

**Palisman Staff (Alvin):** Arthur's staff, which he has called Alvin (or Al for short) is a short staff topped with an octopus creature with teal eyes and purple skin. Due to the lack of palistrom wood, Arthur's mother could only get so much to let him carve his own. However, despite it's shortness and slimness, it has the same amount of magic as a normal staff, but the durability is lacking.

## Trivia

Arthur's spell circles are colored orange.

Arthur's magical prowess comes from years of study and practice, not natural gifting. In reality, Arthur is somewhat bad at new spells, but loves magic so much that he is dedicated to learning.

Despite the slew of books about them on the Boiling Isles, Arthur has a documented book of several beasts and demons.

Similar to Luz, Arthur lost his father at a young age, when he was trapped in boiling rain.. It's the main reason he and his mother now lives on the Knee, and why he dislikes the heat so much.

The nickname for his palisman, Al, is a nod to the word "alchemist"

He identifies as a Demimale, using he/they pronouns.

His tail wags whenever he is overly happy.
