his weapons blessed by a few deities to give him an edge during a fight.

Pyrokinesis:
The ability to create and manipulate fire.
The fire is sparked from oxygen molecules in the air around him by
psychic energy, though it drains him physically. He will rapidly tire from overuse of this skill.
Aquakinesis:
The ability to create and manipulate water.
He creates water by pulling oxygen and hydrogen molecules together by
use of psychic energy. He will rapidly
tire from overuse of this skill. It
allows him great mobility while in the water.
Astral
Projection: The ability to displace his spirit from his body and attach it to
the spirit of another person/creature.
He cannot fully possess or control another being while doing this, but
merely watches. Meanwhile, his body is
helpless without its spirit and can only sit and wait mindlessly for the spirit
to return.
Energy
Summoning: He can summon energy from around him to put to use, whether it be in
healing, protection, helping in spells or other things. This ability is severely draining on him and
can only be used sparingly. The energy
he summons cannot be used by himself, but only given to others.
Astral
Projection: While he does this, his body is useless in a fight and can’t defend
himself. Energy Summoning: After it is used for a long time he is drained of
his magic and strength. Any items concealed: He has two shields that were
forged with magic and he wears them on his forearms. They deflect most weapons
however they don’t deflect magic attacks if they are powerful (only minor
ones).
History:
Michael was born as the first child
to a small farming community. For most
of his life he never showed any signs of being capable with magick. In the following years, his village was attacked
by a group of raiders who attempted to abduct the village for slave labor. When his family was targeted, Michael’s
powers surfaced and he drove off the raiders by turning a few of them into
walking tiki-torches. At the age of
five his family enrolled him in a local academy run by the educated of his
village. At this academy, he was
schooled in magick and science, though the curriculum also included a rather
biased theme against the royal government and the village’s common beliefs
about the world that existed before The Breaking.
It was during his schooling that he learnt the
reason his village was separated from others.
Because of their theories and speculations about the world Pre-Breaking,
they are in hiding as, by their knowledge, the royal families both want them
destroyed to bury the possibility of a rebellion spawned by rumors of
conspiracies. While he was skeptical he
didn’t argue about it. Part of the
academy’s schooling was to train fighters to rebel against the Royal Family for
their own protection. Despite his
growing powers, he was constantly left behind during raids against Royal
storages and suppliers because of his age.
One fateful night, Michael was paid a visit by a
local deity known as “the Goddess of Power.”
She offered him an invitation to speak with her superiors and he was
taken to a council of lesser deities.
The leader of this group of deities offered Michael power in return for
aid in the form of an assassination.
While the details of this assassination have been kept secret, he
returned to his village after three years with the power promised to him; power
in the form of two weapons. The first
of the weapons was a sword passed down through his family that the deities had
blessed for him to increase its effectiveness. The second was a battle axe equally blessed, though supplied by
the deities themselves.
Upon arriving back in his village
after his absence, Michael was surprised to find that much had changed. Most of the village had vanished and it was
revealed to him that raiding parties had come and gone, destroying much of the
village and it’s inhabitants each time.
Now much more powerful than before, Michael took up authority in the
village and lead counter-attacks on the raiding parties, eventually maintaining
the safety of his village. Now a young
man of fifteen, Michael has once again set out to make a name for himself in
the world and to accomplish his village’s goals of vengeance by overthrowing
the Royal Family. As he has been
identified by Royal troops as the leader of rebellions, he is widely known in
some parts of the Kingdom as an outlaw to the Kingdom, but a role model to
other rebel groups.
