Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Letum Umbra

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Creature ID: (Each creature will be given an ID upon application. That is how their profile will be classified with the Agents)

Marital Status: Single

Family: A sister, mom, and a father ((All dead))

Personality: His personality is a varied one to put it simply. He often is a calm and collected person but underneath he is crazed and twisted. Often showing this nature when gaining entrance into a fight, he allows his exterior in and interior out, like a switch of personalities. one could classify him as dual personality and often crazy. But when in normal circumstances he appears rather normal and a calm, intelligent person.

History: Upon Letum's birth he seemed rather average and seemed to have a promising future.He grew up in a safe neighborhood with his parents and his only sister and they seemed close, though their dad was often gone for work. He was a happy child, though he only had a few friends but they were close to him.

But things began to change and go straight down hill for him upon their families move out of their former neighborhood. Their dad got a new job and forced to move to accommodate. The new neighborhood was risky and dangerous, something Letum never had been exposed to. Children seemed ruthless and uncaring towards those who wouldn't defend themselves and tried to turn the other cheek, as he was taught. Often being forced into fights while the others would watch at school, all seemed to careless about him. He seemed to be unable to make any true, close friends as he had before.

His mind began to sink into darkness, the warmth of his kindness froze over and he silenced himself. Dealing with the daily tortures of school that no one would do anything about it and he still retained his kind nature despite this but grew bitter and hateful. He sat alone, observing the world around him and grew to hate other humans, segregating himself from the species as a whole.

This town began to change him, his parents could see this change and they too were helpless to do anything. Often going to school to try and fix the problems but they simply arouse like an parasite of festering vile that took absolute control of the school that refused to leave. This attempts failing time and time again as Letum sunk further into this darkness and icing of his heart.

After several years of loneliness things began to look up for him. He found a girl that seemed to intriguing to him, she wasn't a preppy girl but was quite attractive and yet kind but crazy at the same time. They had became friends over time. One incident he remember of them getting into a fight over a piece of paper, often both of them found arguing with each other fun and enjoyable. Along with meeting this girl he met a group of other kids that were kind but seemed to break away from the others. These friends made him happy, happier then he ever felt.

But as his heart seemed to warm up and the ice break away, slowly slipping out of this darkness disaster struck again. The daily tortures he went through began to reduce over the years but this was the hardest blow he had taken yet. His family had been killed, at home, in a fire started by an arson. It happened when he was walking home, his sister had stayed home with a cold and his father had just got home before Letum, himself, had taken is saunter of a walk home from school. He had only been a quarter of a mile from his house before he heard the sounds of an explosion fill the air.

Black smoke filled the air that surround his house, the sounds of sirens echoing off in the distance as a call was sent in from a neighbor. His thoughts race as he sped home to see what happened, tears already welling up in his eyes thinking of the worse. Running as fast as he could the rest of the way home, dropping his stuff down so he could get home faster. He knew the smoke was rising from his house. As he got closer he could see the orange and yellow glow of the flames emitting out, fire trucks, police, and ambulances reaching the house not but a few moments before he had. How fast had he been running? He couldn't believe that he had reached the house not to long after them but he didn't care.

His jaw dropped when he saw the house in flames, burning rapidly and none of his family insight. He ran up to the house, some of the firemen and policemen trying to keep him back but he struggled and broke free from them. The whole time crying out for his family, they had been there supporting him the whole time this town seemed to be against him. He refused to be alone more so then he already was. He did something no sane man would do, he ran into the burning house.

He got into the house, not caring for the flames or falling pieces of the house that surrounded him, seeming unaffected by it. His clothes becoming singed and beads of sweat forming on his skin. He called out from his sister and his parents as he raced through the house. The firemen frantically running in after him, trying to find him, calling out for him to come out but he refused and avoided them.

He found only his sister in the house, in her room laying on her bed. She was pinned down by a fallen beam from the supports of the house. The room creaking as the flames roared around them. He looked at her, her body lifeless and burning. This image burned into his mind forever, he ran over to her, trying to wake her up and remove the beam from her body. He put his flames directly on the beam and flames to push it off but couldn't. His mind shocked not to feel the burning sensation of the flames or the smell of roasting flesh.

The fireman chased into the room in their protective suits, one grabbing each of his arms. Dragging him out but he refused to go, crying out and yelling for them to release him. As he did the flames burst around the firemen and scared them off him. He looked at the two firemen, he was angered that they wouldn't just leave him here with his family to die along with them. The two firemen going to go grab him once more but were stepped by a sudden swirling wall of flames around his body. The flames were intense and forced them back.

His hands began to clutch his skull as this happened, dropping to his knees. His head ached, begging for the pain to stop as the flames moved. The firemen in shock but then more surprised as the flames vanished and Letum found passed out on the ground. They couldn't tell what happened, he had a pulse, his body remained unharmed and yet he was passed out. They were baffled by what just happened but took him out and gave him to the police. Putting out the fire and allowing the police to do their investigation and take care of the child. Later discovering the fire had been started by a arsonist they had been trying to catch for years.

Letum was sent to an orphanage, often silent and spoke only when spoken to. No one would take him in, hearing his past from the orphanage made potential families stray away. Hearing how his family died and the things he went through. So he spent the rest of his life at the orphanage till he could leave, slowly but surely figuring out what happened that fateful day and discovering his own powers. He began to practice and train with them, his bed often catching on fire or singing his room walls. Later discovering he could create and manipulate ice.

But upon turning eighteen he left the orphanage and started his own life. He spent several years in solitude in a small apartment, he did have a job but nothing glamorous. He later was discovered by agents and tagged but went on living his own life and path, trying to change things for the better if possible.

Appearence: He stands tall at 6'2", his body built slim but also muscular. His muscles more compact then bulky. His hair is long, dark brown, resting at his shoulder with dark brown eyes. His skin is lightly tanned and he often is found wearing dark clothing. He tends to avoid wearing shoes as he prefers to go bare foot and his clothing attire is generally a pair of black jeans with a snug fitting black t-shirt. He changes his appearance for certain occasions.

Powers/Abilities: Control over both fire and ice, so capable of controlling temperatures. His flames often are wild and can be untamed if unfocused. As for his abilities with ice, they still are fairly new to him, not having them as long as his control of fire but tends to be in a bit more control of the ice but not as strong as his flames, often using ice as a defense. Though the range of his powers is limited to within 15m of his body, after which point he has no control over fire and ice. It also takes time for him to be capable of switching between the two.

Other:

Well I was considering that actually and that's something intended to put in but forgot XD But I think I'll wait for Marauder to see what her opinion on it before working out those details. Also, ice is only a general defense...should also mention it makes an excellent counter striker too.

or like Xxenotron said, if they were seperate I was thinking maybe he'd have to take a minute to switch himself from one element to the other, or only use ice as like armor or something like that. In my opinion i'd prefer if you picked fire or ice but hey it's all down to marauder

try to decide on a decent set of limitations, doesnt have to be too limited but somewhat and edit your post under the powers or things you should know section and we'll see if it's allright.

I have to agree about maybe limiting his powers. I'm glad to have a more powerful creature on our hands. Its always nice to have a bit of variety and some powers are obviously stronger than others. I'd limit it some but not quite to an extent where he losses to much power from it. Just make sure while playing him ot he doesn't become to unstoppable. Having great power is wonderful, it comes down to the use of said power.

Also I'd say this is our last Creature App I'm willing to except for a while. We have a rather uneven number of creatures and Agents. I'd like to see more agets before I allow anymore Creatures. I'd like to see at lest 3 or 4 Agents before we accept anymore Creatures...I'll send a Guild announcement about it.

And Xeno and Daer feel free to accept applications without waiting for me. after the ones i've seen you work on I trust your judgement. mrgreen
