IC
Name: Tobias “Toby” Williams
Canon: Original
Canon point: Post-Halloween 2021
Age: 24

History:

Personality:

• Magnetic: Toby has always been something of a charmer, people tend to like him because he is fluidly adaptable to being who-and-whatever any given person or situation may want him to be, in an authentic way that doesn't put him behind a mask of someone he's not.

• Honest: Honesty is an important foundation within the Williams family, and Toby's never met a lie he could tell very well. He's upfront about almost everything and he won't exaggerate the truth for sympathy points.

• Loyal: Once someone is inside of Toby's innermost social circle, he's a total ride-or-die sort of friend. It would take some pretty extreme measures to make him break a friendship off in any sort of permanent way.

• Impulsive: Toby is the sort of person that lives in the moment, and only in the moment. Planning, schedules, they aren't things he's good with. He just does and says what's right in his heart at any given second. This can land him in some pretty precarious situations at times, because not all decisions made in-the-moment are necessarily good ones.

• Clingy: In a sort of flip-side to his loyalty, Toby can be particularly needy for social interaction in a way that can sometimes come on too strong, or be annoying to deal with if he chooses to latch onto someone in particular. At times, this shows in behaviors such as an irrational fear of abandonment or a near-desperate seeking of approval from others.

• Easily distracted: Focus is not always Toby's best quality as his attention is easily drawn from one thing to another. Projects get left incomplete, his interests change frequently. Conversations are easily derailed by a stray thought that he start to follow or tasks end up taking an unnecessary amount of time to complete if he doesn't remove all possible distractions beforehand.

Powers/Abilities: Toby is part of a long line of powerful witches that have been based in Ashvale, California for centuries. Though his bloodline means he's got more power behind him than the average witch, that's kind of where the advantage ends. He has not honed many of the skills he has at this time.

• Spellcasting: What it says on the tin; gather the necessary ingredients and perform rituals/incantation-based spells. These vary in strength and action, and the bigger the spell, the harsher the toll it takes on the caster; this also includes curses (long-term) and hexes (short-lived), which are spells with ill intent.

➥ Infusion: The ability to imbue supernatural properties into an item either temporarily or permanently (i.e. enchanted objects). Only the witch that created the spell on the item can remove the magic, or the (temporary or permanent) death of that witch will cancel the effects.

➥ Warding: The ability to place protection wards on people or places to shield them from harm.

• Conjuration: Creating objects out of thin air; these objects are solid and real as any other, but ultimately are still only magical constructs, if the creator is injured or killed, the object disappears unless it's spelled otherwise beforehand.

• Channeling: The ability to pull power from the very lifeforce of other living or supernatural beings or magic-infused items to add to their own innate power. Prolonged channeling could be detrimental to a person being used as a channel. It could potentially cause weakness, headaches, nosebleeds, unconsciousness, and in exceptionally rare and intense cases, even death; immortal beings used as channels will not die, however.

• Scrying: Use of crystals or personal objects along with a map to locate a target. There is no distance requirement between the witch and the target for the spell to work, but scrying never works if the target is in any way magically hidden.

• Telekinesis: Movement of objects/people through mental effort, often paired with hand gestures. The bigger the target, the more mental exhaustion there is as a result.

• Pain Infliction: Creates a sensory overload of pain in the target. This takes almost no mental or magical energy for a skilled witch.

Toby is most skilled with telekinesis and scrying. The rest, he's pretty average with.

Regret: being out of town over Halloween when his best friend nearly died during a Siren attack at the lake.

Inventory: A ring, which is spelled for protection.
