Yer Name: Xennik Droid
NPC character name: Xennik Tay Ahamni
NPC character appearance: Xennik is rather disarmingly handsome, perhaps the only reason he has gotten on so well in his life. He's caucasion hispanic, with tanned skin, blue eyes, and black hair. He tends to spoil himself with fancy clothing and definetly looks like the magician he is. His usual outfits consist of fancy slacks, high boots, and musketeer-styled shirts. He almost always wears a gray-black hat with an enormous Roc's feather flouncing from its brim. It changes color to match his mood. He is never without a black choker with a large red stone on it.
NPC character demeanor: Xennik was raised in poverty, and was the first in his family to make something of himself. As such, he finds nothing wrong with spoiling himself and flaunting his wealth such as living in a large condo and dressing rather richly. But when it comes right down to it, he's a sweetheart...and a tad blond. He's extremely patient, and apparently brilliant, but his genius is a lot like lightning, it comes in random flashes of brilliance and insight and disappears just as quickly. He could recite the anatomy of a gryphon, for example, and then accidentally trip over someone's foot the next moment. Luckily, his sweet charm and good looks (and magic) get him out of everything. Unfortunately, he's quite the workaholic and therefore has no lovelife (plus he's too dense to know when anyone's hitting on him).
How your character gets involved in this: Xennik works as a researcher of magical properties and phenomena. As in, he gets sent out to check up on all the strange adoption centers that keep popping up all over the place. He could be involved only because he's there to research for the people he works for, or he could have been hired by Freya and Dominous to keep track of the kids, give them check-ups, and see how safe they are in this world.
RP sample:
"There's something about those children." Mr. Damian grumped, stroking his long gray whiskers. Xennik glanced up from his seldom-used desk and the book he was pouring over, and smiled wryly.
"You say that about everything." He reminded the temperamental man.
"Well it gives me the chills!" His boss scowled. "Children, human children, appearing out of fruit! And from what? Planted matches! Is that not utterly mad?!"
"Not really," Xennik said calmly, "With natural birthing becoming rare, it only makes sense for souls to have to get creative coming to Gaia."
Mr. Damien frowned disapprovingly, but thought on this. "Well, yes, I suppose. You're brilliant, Xennik."
Xennik smiled patiently, used to these sorts of compliments. Everyone seemed to take him as a prodigy of some sort, and seemed to believe that he therefore needed constant praise to keep going. He could handle himself perfectly fine without it, in fact enough was enough, which was why he usually did his paperwork from home.
"Which is why I'm sending you to check it out."
Xennik had just returned to his book about the anatomical make-up of flying pandas when Mr. Damien dropped the bomb. His head snapped up. Now this Xennik hadn't been expecting. "Wha-what?" He spluttered. He wasn't supposed to be given anymore assignments. He was still under desk-arrest for accidentally blowing up the Aged'elair building. Of course, they hadn't believed him when he'd said he was trying to save that girl's life. He still had a month to go doing pure desk-work.
"Yes, you're the only one I can trust. I'm sending you ot there as an agent. Find out everything you can about these...children, and report everything immediately to me. I want full reports, charts, everything! If anyone can rid me of this feeling of dread, it will be you. Now hop to it!"
Xennik was still dazed. This was a heavy-duty job he was being gifted with. He stood, shakily, setting his book aside. Even in this situation, his neat-freak nature was not to be smothered. The book was nicely stored where it belonged, and carefully book-marked even as he struggled to grasp that he was now no longer under desk-arrest.
"Well?" Thundered the ever-vocal Mr. Damien. "Go on, before I change my mind!"
With this Xennik jumped, pulled on his coat, and snatched his hat. The large feather atop it immediatley faded into an excited red as he made his exit.
Why YOU wanna be a slave staff member: It sounds like an interesting idea, and it would be nice to put some of my writing skills to use. <3
How YA want to be paid(And do you think Mel's 5-10k thing is fair? Each month? Each event?:/ ) 5-10k a month seems very fair, maybe a bonus for roleplaying events that would require more work and time on our part.
How often are you alive on Gaia?: At least once a day everyday unless otherwise noted. (for camps, vacations, testing weeks, etc.)
Are you a slave Work in other shops? (Post links): Yep. ^^ I currently work as shop manager at a shop called
ElderSpark.
Are you crazy?(Random thing. xD Post anything ya want): Um...maybe a little. But I'm mostly sane. =)
Is Mel crazy?(Another random one. xD): I dunno?
Any ideas for the shop?(Like why they have powers, familiars, yadda): If you want familiars to be a major part of the story, why not have it so that the children's powers can't be controlled unless they have a familiar, or familiars can enhance their magic abilities. The children themselves could have limited powers that are designed to help their parents do something. Like, maybe a girl with healing powers is sent to a father who's crippled. She has to figure out what her powers are, and then heal him, and then she can grow further or something.
