The Savilles are a bi-racial family of witches that live in a small desert town. Their father, Claremont, is a foreigner and a ward-maker, while their mother, Sadira, is a storyteller. The Saville children [in order from oldest to youngest] consist of Faydan, Shayla, Serkan, Kiral, and Evren.
The children all have the dark hair, dark skin, and amber eyes of their mother. Shayla and Serkan also share many of her other features, while Faydan, Kiral, and Evren bore a resemblance to their father.
All members of the family are capable of speaking at least two languages [their mother’s and their father’s native tongues] to varying degrees. They also have a habit of carrying personal wards and charms, and have practiced story-telling with each other [this would generally be mother to child, and older sibling to younger.] In adjusting to a single-parent household, the older siblings often help out at the ward shop and with cooking. Other household chores are shared according to ability.
Claremont Saville [Father]:
[Dark hair, dark eyes, light skin, kinda thin.]
Claremont came to live in the desert town several years ago, where he managed to open a ward shop, and met and married his wife, Sadira. While he is generally adaptable and open to new cultures, his outlook and habits tend to reflect his background.
Claremont is a people-person; friends and regulars alike tend to find him affable and a good conversationalist. He keeps himself locally informed [the weather, the crops, the businesses], and has a knack for remembering personal facts [relationships, health, etc.] and faces.
Like many of the more successful businessmen in town, he is capable of speaking multiple languages [currently four, with varying skill], and can write in three [his spelling is sometimes a little off for the Desert one, though].
In terms of magic, Claremont is an enchanter; someone who is able to imbue and object with specific powers. This is where his ward-making abilities lie.
When it comes to cooking for the family, Claremont generally opts for quick and simple dishes. [The limits of his ability has made for a predictable repetition –the kids sometimes make bets on what they dish will be when their father’s turn to cook.]
Sadira Kamilah [Mother]:
[Dark hair, amber eyes, dark skin, a hardy form.]
[Info Missing]
It is known among friends, neighbors, and locals that Sadira left town when Evren was still an infant, in order to search for a cure or a way to break his curse. [You can imagine the gossip and the varied opinions on this. Thankfully, the worse of the gossip had died down after the first year or two.]
Faydan Saville [Brother] [+4]:
Fay.
[Dark hair, amber eyes, dark skin, tall and slender.] He’s the best-looking of the siblings, being rather comely, although considered a little thin for the locals’ tastes.
Faydan is sociable like his father, with a sort of easy, carefree personality. There’s a sense of sophistication and charm about him that makes him rather popular among the women, and a sense of quiet firmness tempered with geniality that most seem to appreciate.
Despite possessing a number of positive traits, Faydan’s general capricious demeanor has given him a poor reputation and has led to a number of misunderstandings. People seem to like him, but also presume too much to too little of him. [These are best addressed in the points below.]
-He bears a sense of responsibility, however, that does not mean that he thinks himself responsible for every little aspect of everything in his life [not his siblings, his family situation, the family business, his relationships, etc.]. Responsibilities must be carefully weighed before they are claimed; more often than not, he would rather follow his own whims and let the little things be. [As a result, it often seemed as if he was evading unwanted responsibilities. To be fair, he does prefer to stay within his own comforts.]
-He is actually contemplative, generally objective, and mature, but is read to be unconcerned, subjective [his mannerisms], shallow, and self-indulgent.
The fact that Faydan is playful makes it seem like he takes little seriously, and his choice of wording in conversations often gets others caught up in his pace. Being closed-lipped, ambiguous, and evasive on a number of subjects makes him seem secretive and insincere [others have a difficult time trusting him, or grow cautious because of this; many question his motives and intentions.] In short, he can be incredibly frustrating to deal with.
Faydan’s powers seem mediocre compared to the average witch; he is the weakest magic-user in the family [this in comparison to the rest of his siblings as well, when they come of age]. His wards are feeble, but he can make some decent charms, and this is his general contribution to the shop.
In cooking for his family, Faydan has a preference for pastas and sandwiches.
Shayla Saville [Sister] [+1]:
Shay.
[Dark hair, amber eyes, dark skin, a hardy form.]
Positives: likable, confident, bold, honest, trust-worthy [where it counts], hardworking, generally positive.
Negatives: stubborn, temperamental, blunt, straight-forward, tactless.
Traits: adventurous, action-oriented, strong, energetic, agile, curious.
As a child, she was a bit mischievous, with a sort of instigating personality that often got her and those around her into trouble. She did not mind the rules so much as bent them to suit her.
The dishes she cooks for her family are a little messy in presentation, but often hearty, tasty [in the homemade way], and filling. Broths and meaty dishes are her specialty, with plenty of bread bought [or gifted] from the bakery.
Kiral Saville [Brother] [-11]:
Ki. Mimic.
Serkan’s younger brother. [Dark hair, amber eyes, dark skin, somewhat slender.] Kiral has two moles on his face: one just above the outer edge of his right eyebrow, and another, smaller one below the outside corner of his left eye [on the upper cheek].
Positives: intelligent [booksmart], thorough/precise/exact, tough, keen/watchful*
Negatives: sullen, negative, suspicious/distrustful of others, a bit OCD, temperamental, fails to notice his own shortcomings
Kiral is a fairly decent magic user, proving himself more than capable in the arts.
*He’s sharp when in regards to others, however, he’s not much for retrospection.
