Solar Flare
Allegro exudes a a shining light from his body when he feels scared or threatened. It can range from a minor glow to help light the way in shadow or darkness (outside of battle), or be one big bright glare for a short period of time, allowing the dust to blind its enemy, raising the dust's evasiveness (during battle).
Synthesis*
If exposed to natural light such as fire or the sun, Allegro can leech the light to heal himself in battle or simply keep him warm as he passes through areas with little to no light.
*This ability is restricted to flesh wounds only, and requires set amounts of time for healing each wound

__________This is the journal of Allegro Lightner, and subsequentally his father Hayden Alexander Lightner with cameo appearances made by the twins, Canté and Benjamin Lightner. It is requested that you do not post in this thread under any circumstances unless cleared with me beforehand and only in an IC manner.
That being said Allegro Lightner was won in a semi-custom writing contest. I was really surprised I won, considering I am not the most excellent writer and I've rarely entered many FS or writing contest styled sales. Most of my pets I usually win at auction.
Here is the piece that landed me Allegro: Contest Entry Hayden was always one to get lost in his own little world from time to time. He would sit there mindlessly playing on his cherry wood piano wondering about all the many things that would or would not happen that day. He pondered on his speculations and fears, his duties and accomplishments, his goals for that day, and what in god’s name he’d be making for dinner that evening. And like always he would be interrupted at some point by one, two, or all three of his lovely lit-
“DAD!”
Right on cue. Hayden looked up to see Canté and Benjamin bounding towards him as if the end of the world was near, though with the goings on of his household it was a normal occurrence and didn‘t see fit to respond overly concerned. Instead he gave both boys a smile and posed a question to them.
“How would you like to have mashed potatoes and fish sticks tonight for supper?”
Benjamin‘s eyes lit up at the mention of potatoes and made an effort butt his way in front of his brother before Canté could even speak, “Fish sticks and potatoes sound great Dad! Can we have gravy too? NO WAIT. How about that cheese stuff you grate sometimes? GRAVY AND THE CHEESE STU-”
“GET OUT OF THE WAY BEN!” Canté hissed, shoving his older brother of three minutes out of the line of their father‘s view and onto the floor.
Benjamin couldn‘t help but hit the ground with a thud and a murmured cry of pain as he shot a glare up to his younger brother and proceeded to enact his revenge there and than with a swift kick to Canté‘s behind.
“Now you both see here,” Hayden said, calmly but sternly commanding his fatherly authority over the twin boys, “What is going - will you two stop that fighting or there‘s no desert for a week for either of you!”
Both children looked up to their father with a mixture of hurt and utter annoyance.
“Now,” Hayden said once more, sighing slightly, “What is the matter, and what‘s going on?”
Canté was the first of the twins to speak. “Something‘s wrong with Allegro,” the younger twin muttered, casting his red eyes downward and towards the floor.
Hayden couldn‘t help but hear the hesitance in Canté‘s voice as he spoke. Allegro must have asked the twins not to tell him there was something wrong; it seemed like the most likely scenario. Allegro, Benjamin and Canté were like the Three Musketeers in that sense, they always stuck their necks out for each other even if it meant all three being punished instead of just one. Something must be seriously wrong if the two were here breaking their compacted trust to their father.
Benjamin finally decided to speak after a few moments of silence, “It was like…uhm, I don‘t know how to describe it Daddy. At first Allegro was fine and he was happy and than the next moment he fell down onto the ground and slept. He‘s been sleeping since noon.”
Hayden got up from his place in front of his cherry wood piano and rushed upstairs to the boys bedroom. Allegro had fainted?! He couldn‘t possibly be sick, he was fine only a few hours ago when the four had brunch together. He was singing and laughing and telling jokes with Canté and Benjamin, what in the world could possible cause his son to collapse?
Hayden made haste, climbing - no - running, skipping steps up the large flights of stairs leading from the ground floor to the third floor. Banisters creaked, and stairs gave off loud thumps as his heavy footing rang through the house. Behind him similar thumps could be heard as the twins tried to catch up to their father, but to no avail. By the time the twins reached the top their father was already checking up on their sibling who lay stagnant in his bed.
Allegro was ghostly pale, and sound asleep when Hayden checked on him. He tried several times to wake him and it didn‘t seem as if it were working. Think, man, think. Hayden muttered in his head as he felt the child‘s temperature, noting he wasn‘t giving off a great amount of bodily warmth. Hayden turned to his sons, “Canté I want you to go run some warm bath water for Allegro. Benjamin, get me some towels and drape them over the radiator. You‘re going to warm them up for me, but keep on eye on them so they don‘t catch fire, you hear me?”
As the children dispersed in order to carry out the tasks set before them, Hayden proceeded to hoist Allegro up and towards the bathroom where he intended to soak him in a warm bath to bring back up his body‘s temperature. What on earth could have caused such a reaction in his child? Was he ill? Did he catch something from one of the other children? Was her bitten by something feral? He was unsure what to do.
Once down in the bathroom Hayden stripped Allegro down and placed him in the warm bath Canté was asked to prepare for him. Hayden looked to his son in concern, “Did your brother tell you he wasn‘t feeling well, Canté? Did he mention being bitten by a stray animal, or maybe you three played with one of the local children who was ill?”
Canté simply shook his head to all his father‘s proposed questions. In fact the only thing he remembered Allegro complaining about recently is about how cloudy it had been and how he missed seeing the sun. Maybe that was something? Nah. Allegro always complained about that though. He hated being inside on sunny days, even if it was rigid outside. What could have possibly been wrong with his sibling? He pondered for several moments more, until he jumped surprised as Allegro‘s eyes snapped open.
The poor sunshine child gave a loud gasp and thrashed slightly unsure of what exactly was going on. He didn‘t remember being in a really warm bathtub last time he checked. In fact, he was pretty sure he was lying in bed trying to get warm. He stuttered as he spoke, “D-d-daddy what‘s g-g-going on?”
At this point Benjamin had returned with the warm towels his father had requested, though one of them had line marks similar to that of a sirloin steak as he wasn’t exactly paying as much attention as he should have.
“You went to sleep and wouldn’t wake up,” Benjamin said as his father pulled Allegro out of the tub and wrapped the warm blankets around him, “We got worried so we told Dad.”
“I t-t-told you not to tell!” Allegro whimpered through gritted teeth. The cold of the air struck him almost as if cold daggers were smacked across his skin with the flat side. It almost made him pass out once more until the warm blankets were wrapped around him tightly.
Hayden knelt down in front of Allegro and rubbed his hands up and down the towels to help the boy get warm, “What happened Allegro? Why did you faint like this?”
Allegro tried not to make eye-contact with his father. The twins, Allegro and Hayden all knew that the moment he did, he would crack like the most delicate of eggs and spill the entirety of what exactly was causing this. It wasn’t something he wanted to happen. He didn’t want to cause the three anymore worry than he already had so he kept his mouth shut.
“Allegro please tell me. You have to tell me,” Hayden pleaded, taking Allegro’s head and attempting to make him face him. “If you don’t tell me and this happens again, what will I do? I won’t know how to help you. And than if something terrible happens to you than I…”
Allegro glanced over and that was that. Trapped once again in his pleading father’s eyes he found himself spilling out the very things he was struggling to keep locked away for eternity.
Allegro tried his best to explain to him, “I’m sick ‘cause there’s no sun. The sun makes me happy, and makes me warm. And when there’s no sun…” he paused for a moment, “sun or light, it makes me feel tired, and it makes me feel like I’m not there. Like I‘m disappearing…”
This had never crossed Hayden’s mind before that a lack of sunlight could very well possibly kill his child. It scared him, gripped him by his very soul, and made him despair in ways he had not felt since the death of his precious wife. All this because a little sunshine was absent?
“We can mock the sunshine…” Hayden suggested, thinking quietly. Yes. They could very well mimic the sunshine. Sunshine cannot exist without the sun, and when the sun is covered by clouds the rays fade and lose both their bright nature and their warmth. What Allegro needed was warmth and bright light mimicking that of the sun’s natural rays. The sun, being the gigantic ball of flaming gas it is, is reminiscent to that of a burning fire. It generates heat, and light enough to warm the body and light up rooms. That’s it! A fire!
“A fire can mimic sunshine for you, Allegro,” Hayden said.
“A fire? But a fire isn’t the sun…” Allegro murmured, gripping the warm towels tightly, feeling a chill come over him.
“Yes it is!” Benjamin chirped, scooting his way next to Allegro to explain. “Daddy taught us this a long time ago, which was like, last year. Daddy says the sun is a giant fire ball, a big distance away that burns really hot and bright and gives us the sun!”
“He’s right, Allegro,” Hayden interjected, “The sun is a giant ball of fire. And if the sun is a giant ball of fire that makes you feel better, than maybe a smaller fire will do so too.”
Allegro was skeptical. The sun was the sun, and had always been the sun. when did it suddenly change into a massive ball of fire? That didn’t exactly sound like the sun. the sun was bright and warm and made him happy. A giant ball of fire reminded him of things burning to the ground, like when Benjamin accidentally knocked over the candle in the kitchen and caught the waste can on fire with it. Would that really help him?
“If you think it’ll work Dad, than we can try…” He murmured, giving a weak little smile.
“Well than, let’s go get a fire started in the fireplace for you,” Hayden quietly said, picking up the still weak Allegro into his arms and bringing him downstairs, his brothers following closely behind.
That evening as Hayden lay in his bed he pondered again the events of the day. It made sense to him in the end. Everything made sense to him. Allegro’s weakness, his paleness, and the fact he passed out and would not wake up. If Canté and Benjamin had waited just an hour or more longer to come to him, or not come to him at all, would Allegro have disappeared into nothing just like the rays of sunshine on a cloudy day?

Personality :: Allegro is very motherly in his demeanor, handing out scoldings, encouragements and comfort where and when needed. He tries to be as polite and approachable as possible, though his general stoic expression gives way to feelings of disinterest when it is simply not the case. He is very curious about the world around him, and at times is viewed as a bit of a know-it-all with all the information he attempts to acquire, and how he likes to 'inform' people of it, though it does not mean he is inherently bossy by any means. He likes the odd adventure or two, but tries not to risk his neck in the process. Like Hayden, he is very hard to anger, though unlike Hayden when he is angry he tends to stay that way for an extended amount of time.
