Trying out a new character. Bear in mind, he was created largely in a humorous context, so don't take him too seriously. I'm looking for a challenger with around the same level-powers; something simple, but with lots of capability. Aaaand... go.
(oh, btw; the lower-cased pronouns were on purpose.)
NAME: chai the thoughtless.
AGE: 17.
GENDER: male, arguably.
RACE: human.
CLASS: water witch.
ABILITIES:
ARMAMENTS:
APPEARANCE:
PERSONALITY: a bit of a coward, though generally good-willed. Chai doesn’t have much of a taste for fighting, and is prone to run at the first sign of danger. In addition to his cowardly instincts, Chai, despite his great skill in water witching, is hesitant to utilize his arcane abilities because of the recent acquisition of gypsy curse.
INFORMATION: born in the flooded country of Bluebell to a gypsy family, his inability to drown led his parents to turn him over to a local shaman named Bad Juju to be tutored in the art of water witching. His natural talent led him to excel in his studies, and soon, he was sent a letter of invitation to the prestigious Geo School of Magick. However, his rival, a macumba named Pepper, cursed him to be possessed by the vicious trickster demon ‘Gloomy-sunday’ on the day of his entry exam. During the test, Pepper doused Chai with water, and he transformed into sunday. sunday destroyed the exam course, and Chai failed. Subsequently disowned by his parents and shamed with the ‘title of humiliation’ (his being ‘thoughtless’), Chai was sent into exile to repent for his sins. He has since become a wanderer of sorts, devoting his life to seeking a remedy for his unfortunate curse.

NAME: chai the thoughtless.
AGE: 17.
GENDER: male, arguably.
RACE: human.
CLASS: water witch.
ABILITIES:
- well versed in water magic
- quite nimble
- it’s more of a curse than an ability really, but should Chai get fully immersed in water, a demon named ‘Gloomy-sunday’ takes over his body. sunday wields titanic strength and speed, but a taste for carnage usually places Chai in a compromising position when he regains control.
- can make a damn good cup of tea
ARMAMENTS:
- jequirity: chai’s trusty dowsing-rod, carved from a branch of the World Tree. Attracts magick-based attacks and neutralizes them. Doubles as a battle staff.
- freezer bombs: tiny capsules with an ice spell inside them - explode on impact.
- gris-gris: a pouch of herbs hung around Chai’s neck that protects him from dark magic.
APPEARANCE:
- hair - chocolate brown (growth inexplicably accelerates while using magic)
- eyes - cerulean
- height - 5’3” (chai’s rather small for his age)
- weight - 113 pounds
- clothing - simple ensemble; horizontally-striped blue and white tee shirt, white cargo pants, rope anklet (shoes inhibit his sorcery. no one knows why.)

ACQUAINTANCES:
- Bad Juju - chai’s ornery old shaman tutor. taught him the basics of water witching.
- Pepper - a macumba (practitioner of dark voodoo magic), and the one who cursed Chai with Gloomy-sunday. She is his rival, though the enmity seems to be one sided, with Chai remaining oblivious to her contempt for him.
- Gloomy-sunday - The demon that possesses Chai should he get wet. He appears to Chai when he is not in control of his body, taunting and mocking him endlessly, though occasionally offering valuable demonic advice.
- Niligiri - chai’s impetuous older sister. a master fortune-teller, with a killer right hook.
- Black Peach - chai’s kind-hearted friend, and an alchemist. serves as Assam’s conscience.
- Assam - another friend of chai’s, he is strong-willed and very reckless. experienced shaman.
