Description EDIT: Newest reference here ---> [link] /END EDIT


Whew, finally finished! The last weeks of school are murder XD

WARNING: YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE A LONG LIST OF INFORMATION

Name: Mark Foxcroft (Goes by Quincy for personal reasons)
Stage Name: "The Performing Gypsy"
Age: 24 years
Gender: Male
Species: Dingo

Act/Talent: For single persons or small groups, he can easily impress with a few mind tricks and disappearing acts.
For larger crowds, he whips out his trusty violin (though he is very good at almost all of the string instruments, he favors his violin) and plays and sings a variety of modern music pieces and songs, cleverly incorporating his magic to suit the song. He hates classic violin pieces claiming many to be "Too depressing and slow". He'll quickly change the instrument to play a requested song.
Extremely large crowds require a bit more pizzazz. This is the only time he'll use spirit summoning as a part of his act (or if he REALLY needs to impress)

Abilities: He can make anything appear out of thin air and make it vanish without a trace. He's also a very skilled spirit summoner. His trade weapon is his Cat o' Nine Tails.

Strengths:
-He's pretty strong with moderate speed and good endurance
-His ability to make things appear and disappear
-His able to think on his feet very well

Weaknesses:
-If he has the upper hand, he'll get sloppy with his movements and be more likely to get hurt.
-He has a glass jaw (weak point)
-He's disorientated by high speeds
Injuries as of Round Two
-Has a massive hangover, so that means headaches and dizziness.
-From being stabbed, his chest is a major weak point and will be generally painful.

History: He isn't one to talk very much about his past claiming, "I like to live in the present" when questioned. The only thing really known about him is that his parents and younger sister are dead. He might slip up every once in a while, though...
Currently, he travels the world on foot as a street perfomer for money and storyteller for fun. He's become a bit of a celebrity among nomads, travelers, and fellow gypsys for his ability to tell stories and using his magic for added effects. He's also a very capable violinest and loves to perform in front of crowds. His trademark props are the apple and the lance with a dream catcher. He doesn't use the lance as a weapon very often, but will go on the offensive with it if his Cat o' Nine Tails isn't working. He's also secretly on the run from the police....

Likes: Ladies, sushi, singing, performing, his powers, the color gold, liquor, barbecue, company, and playing cards.

Dislikes: kids under 5 crying during his shows, vegetarian food, hangovers, bugs, technology, ripping his coat, high speeds, and losing ANYTHING.

Personality: Quincy is the kind of guy you'd like to be around. He's charming, funny, cheerful, and chivalrous. He'll gladly help people and loves to entertain. Although, he can be really obnoxious and lacks tactfulness. Meaning, he doesn't really think before he speaks and can easily offend people. He is quite talented in the field of sarcasm and sharp wit.
But he also holds a dark secret and is not afraid to fight. Since he's on the run from the police, he often gets in fights with them, getting away after he's had enough. So he's an amateur street-fighter and very familiar with his weapons.
If you get close enough to him, he'll mention to you his contract with Cerberus, the monster demon of the Underworld, but he'll never tell you how he got into the contract or why.... Cerberus is the ultimate reason Quincy has his powers and can summon forth spirits.
However, this comes at a steep price. He owes 4 souls a month for use of his magic and 1 extra for every spirit summoned. The only way to ensure the souls Quincy takes go to the Underworld is by eating the stolen souls. However, Quincy dislikes killing and damning people, so he tries to be as merciful as possible. He does his best to eat the souls of the critically injured, terminally ill, and sickly elderly. Only in extreme circumstances will he take the soul of someone young, healthy, or happy.
Quincy joins Tapestry of Horror's tournament so he can make a little extra cash and pay off his debts. Deep inside, though, he enters in hopes of learning alternative magic that can free him from his contract.

Other:
Related to powers
-Quincy can make anything appear and disappear at will. However, this has its limitations:
-If he wants to make something disappear, he has to be in physical contact with it.
-To make soomething in eyesight come to him takes little to no consentration.
-Making something that's not in eyesight appear is a bit more tricky. Quincy has to know EXACTLY where the object he's thinking of is. (Due to this, he has incredible photographic memory) He counts the time it takes to get the object to appear in beats (like music beats) by tapping his foot. The average time it takes to get a small/medium sized object to appear is two beats worth of constentration. Medium/large objects take longer, up to ten beats of unintruppted consentration.
-He cannot make himself or others disappear. Only objects.
-Things he make disappear return to where they were last.
-The spirits summoned are PHYSICAL. They can, and will, attack and kill at Quincy's command.

Personal
-He stores all of his stuff in New Jersy (he's a pack-rat)
-Has near perfect visual memory.
-Can get easily drunk (heavy drinker)
-Has about a 7th grade education
-He isn't very technologically savvy and suffers technophobia. (He has a secret fear of guns)
-He IS however, very paranormally savvy. He's the best source of urban knowledge on spirits and demons you could ever meet.
-He isn't scared of demons or spirits
-Isn't likely to make the first move when fighting.
-Is rather good at battles of wit
-Quite the ladies' man
-All he needs to survive is ladies, rum, and a violin (with some food of course)

Hi! I was just wondering a few things about Quincy. I probably just didnt do a very good job of looking or something, but does he use his spirit summoning during battles? And also what do they look like? I was thinking like Cerberus but Im probably wrong. Thanks!

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

AmiliaLongTail In reply to CorvusRaven [2010-09-10 03:50:25 +0000 UTC]

Oh sure ^^
Quincy doesn't really like using spirits to fight for him, as he owes more souls for every demon summoned, so he mainly uses the Cat O' Nine Tails and his lance for fighting. If he's too hurt to move, then he'd probably resort to summoning demons.
The demons can look like any monster that hell could spit up~ They're flesh and blood beasts of the Inferno XD

AmiliaLongTail In reply to Finion591 [2010-05-17 00:29:15 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking about that.... because, you see, the objects he makes disappear don't vanish into a parallel dimension, or nothing, they return to the place they were last. So they obviously wouldn't be transported too far away XD

Finion591 In reply to AmiliaLongTail [2010-05-25 18:46:35 +0000 UTC]

Than he kind of had the ultimate weapon to get rid of either Lorksuot or Mort O.o ...just transporting them into a lake... or shark pool(?)...or just outside the tent...

You said he's a dingo. Does he have any accents I should know about?

Also, how tall is he? Just out of curiosity.

Naw, you're fine :3

He use to have an Australian accent, but since he's traveled the world most of his life, his dialect has changed and will often use idioms and phrases from other cultures. Sorry, that was long

He's about 5'10". The height of the average man.
