Martin

Sketched by Specter.

## Appearance

Martin has the looks of a preteen who has barely started his growth spurt, standing around 149 cm. He's very thin without getting to bony. While his figure can't be exactly described as lanky, it seems as if his legs are a bit too long for him. It will probably even out once he finishes growing ~~if he ever does~~. His skin is a light shade of rosy peach which tends to burn easily when exposed to sunlight for long periods of time. His lips have a rosier tint than the rest of his skin.

He has black hair. Very dark in color, yet shiny when reflecting light.  It is mostly straight with some strands being curly, especially so in the parts around the border and his neck. Martin doesn't really particularly care for his hair, so it just falls into place (or sticks out) like whatever. The only thing is that he tries to keep it out of his eye area. Even with that, it has a tendency to clump into strands and cover his forehead in a way similar to natural bangs. While it's not long, it is definitely not short; it seems as if it was poorly trimmed some time ago and, after being uncared for a while, grew into a mess of a style.

His facial features are rather childish. Starting with his face's structure, which is somewhat rounded, especially in his cheekbones and chin. He also has a rather fine and delicate nose. His eyes are large, the outer tips seeming rather refined due to his long and thick dark lashes. The irises' color is a glossy honey yellow that has some sort of iridescent quality in bright sunlight. The pupil, however, is a very dark shade of ochre that almost looks black and is therefore considered as such. Both parts of his eyes light up progressively when he's using magic, in proportion to how much and how he's using it.

The clothing he wears might be classified into the category of childlike. He doesn't care much, since it's what he has available.
He has a light cyan dress shirt with long sleeves and a high neck with some ruffles around it. Over that, he wears a dark olive green jacket with long sleeves and a hood. The jacket has long sleeves and lacks zippers of buttons of any sort, only being closed by a black ribbon in the neck area. It's rather loose-fitting around the torso because of that. Martin also sports khaki colored shorts, or breeches, or whatever those kinds of pants can be called, but they stop right at his knee. And he also wears socks. His white socks are either knee-high or just to his ankle, in which case they reveal rather skinny shins. For footwear, he just has regular whole cut shoes in black.

His clothing is often wrinkled or uncared for, but never to the point of being dirty.

## Weapons

He has a very very large arsenal of sharp weapons.

Not that anyone knows. Or maybe they do.

## Powers and Abilities

He's a magic user. Not a super strong one though. He lacks mastery and practice, even though he has potential. Even that has yet to be fully unlocked.

He seems to have some mastery over telekinesis.

## Backstory

Martin was born into an association known as the Thaohal Mage Guild. From the beginning, however, he didn't have the best of experiences. People in the TMG were supposed to have amazing magical abilities, which weren't really visible in him when he was very young. In fact, at some point it was even doubted if he had magic potential or not. This was likely due to the nature of his existence, as his mother didn't seem to have major relationships to the world of magic. But Martin's magic was there, just not manifesting itself.

Well, he was allowed to stay in the family. It wasn't long after his birth that his parents went their separate ways. His mother disappeared, though the reasons for this are unknown. Martin was "raised" by his father, though the word raised is somewhat of an inexact term, since he never took full responsibility in his son's major welfare or magic training and just providing for basic needs, prioritizing instead business matters. So, for the majority of his childhood (all his life), Martin didn't really have a role model or parental figure to look to.
Because of this, and also because the Thaohals were a magic-oriented family, he eventually started efforts by himself to get more powerful in order to be accepted into the family as an actual member. He was a bit of an outcast in his opinion, just kind of being around and watching the others for his own benefit. Though it's likely that if he had made some efforts to interact more with his family members, he would have been able to establish better relationships.

Further details about his first life are ambiguous for the time being.

He somehow met his death at the hands of Amadeus/Time along with the rest of the Thaohal family and guild. Details about this are also unknown for the time being.
He was recently revived by Elio and Aereon as a "test" of sorts to see if the resurrection spell worked correctly. After that, he has just been wandering around without a real purpose.

Martin is waiting for an opportunity to prove that he can truly be useful to the Thaohal Mage Guild.
