Names: Seth and Tessa Balmore
Ages: 31(Seth, he still looks 18) and 32(Tessa)
Gender: Seth(male) Tessa (Female)
Race: Both human
Alignment: Chaotic good (both)
Power Level: 5 (seth) 6(Claire)
Timeline: Modern
Appearance:
Seth:When in casual dress Seth wears a white t-shirt and blue jeans, mostly because it's just comfortable. He has a milky brown skin and dark hair, if one were to take a survey, about seven out of every ten girls would claim he was handsome, his not-full beard becomes the rest of his features very well.
Tessa: Tessa usually wears jean shorts that reach about 3/4 of the way down her long, well toned legs. the top changes very often (as do her bottoms) but she is usually seen with a basketball jersey that reaches just down to her waist, it reads All star, with the number 32 below it. She has long, curly light brown hair, and dark green eyes. She is a very cute girl. If one were to take a survey about 8 out if 10 men would say she is very attractive.
Personality:
Seth: Seth likes to make jokes, even if everyone else doesn't find them funny. He enjoys correcting people's speech errors, like double negatives and the like, and making puns based on what others say, small things like that make him happy. Beyond this he is very level headed, loves to eat candy, and discover new people and places. All of these things distract him from the fact that he hates being alive in his current state.
Tessa: Tessa is certainly the more Business oriented of the two, although she can be fun as well, she is more interested in getting done, what needs to be done first and having fun later, she is quite defensive of Seth as well.
History: Seth and Tessa were both High school sweethearts, they both grew up in middle class households, Seth with a single father, and Clair with Divorced parents. Their relationship was very strong until, the day before graduation, Seth was in a car crash, a very bad car crash. He barely survived the initial impact, he was rushed to the hospital in hopes of saving him but, after two weeks of fighting, his body finally gave up. Seth died two weeks later, Tess was with him the whole two weeks.
Years passed, almost ten, and Tessa was married again, to a man she wished she could love, but didn't. Her marriage was a lie, and she knew it, she was still in love with Seth. After coming to terms with this, she divorced her husband, who was none too happy, and left, on a long vacation to Jamacia.
She returned one month later, but didn't inform anyone if this, instead she raced back to her hometown, where Seth was buried. One very long night with a shovel later (luckily Seth wasn't buried very deep) Tessa had dug Seth up successfully, then, through the use of a magic doll, bewitched by a jamacian witch doctor, offered up half her soul in order for the heavens to return Seth's, the ritual took about fifteen minutes, when it was over, Seth was back, and despite what most of the undead sort look like, his body worked just like it did when he was alive. The only problem was, Seth never claimed to want to come back.
Bringing Seth back from the dead had a couple of adverse affects on the both of them, while it successfully brought Seth back, Seth is now Immortal, while Tessa, received a reduced lifetime. The couple will be separated again. They aren't legally married, but they live as a married couple lives, they own a house, Tessa has a day
Powers:
Seth: Seth is a very accomplished mage, not mastering magic of just one element, but magic that encompasses many elements of reality. Here are some skills that he uses more often.
Barrier: A simple barrier that Seth erects to defend Claire, almost never using it on himself.
Special barrier: The reason this barrier is special is because, no matter how much they attack it directly, the barrier will only weaken of you weaken who he decides to attach it to, which is almost always Claire. Basically, if you attack the barrier that's around him, it's useless, but, if you weaken Claire by attacking her (the barrier does not protect her at all)
Force: A spell that attacks the enemy with a large amount of force
Substitute: This spell substitutes an item for another item, (no living organisms) the chant time varies depending on the object he is substituting, the empire state building would take an hour of conjuring, while a door would take seconds.
Limited reality magic: This is what Seth has been trying to develop instead of his elemental magic. His reality magic has advanced to the point that he can alter already existing objects, like he can cause spikes to jut from a wall, cause the innards of a stuffed animal to be filled with corrosive acid, change a stick into a snake, nothing incredibly large scale, but more than often,enough to get the job done.
Sticks and stones: Seth's only weapon is a book, the reason for this is because, thanks to his reality magic, it is all he needs. He can open his book, whether it be a pocket dictionary, a comic book, or novel and begin to read aloud, causing words and letters to jump off the page and attack his enemies. The more he is allowed to read, the more letters he has at his disposal, the more letters at his disposal, the more powerful they (collectively) become.
Endure: This spell is cast on an ally, it increases their ability to take damage, and their pain tolerance.
React: Increases reflexes of the castee by a large amount, both this and Endure are typically casted at the same time
Strengthen: Increases the muscle output of the castee by a large amount.
Tessa: Tessa is adept in all aspects of close quarters combat, between her blade and her pump action shotgun she can take out almost anyone near her. She carries neither of these with her unless she's expecting trouble though, so mostly she just sticks with her 3rd degree blackbelt in Shotakan Karate.
Speed and agility: The ability given to her by the ritual, since her lifespan was lowered so, her natural speed has been raised by quite the large amount, she can run and react to things the speed of about mach 1. This is her only actual combat ability and thus is heavily refined, in combination with her weapons, and her get-it-done attitude, she is quite deadly.
Kiss of death: When allowed to get close to an enemy, and lull them into a false sense of security, or perhaps disabling them, she can preform this technique, this technique steals life from an opponent, and adds it to her own. Unfortunately, due to her cursed lifetime, the amount of life added decreases every time it is used, she cannot escape her fate. (the stolen amount stays constant, which is ALL OF YOUR LIFE-FORCE)
Equipment:
Seth: Several ball-point pens and a book (book varies)
Tessa: Nothing if casual, a 12-gauge pump action shotgun with 24 shells (six shots per re-load), and a light weight (and thus broken easier) shamshir with an extended handle for easier grip.
Weakness: Without Seth, Tessa is just fast and agile, without Tessa, Seth has no-one to protect him from physical attacks
