Description

Aaaaaaah it took me so much longer to write the bio than I would have liked, but I hope everything's in order and I didn't butcher anything too horribly :'D I promise to re-write Micah's history at some point, though, because I feel like it's too rushed //ming
But yes! Meet my new baby who's not....exactly new? I've actually had this dork for eight-ish years now, but I've never used him so I'm excited to have an opportunity~

|| BASIC INFORMATION
Name: Micah Angelus
Age: Is approximately 1800 years old, but looks to be about 18
Birthday: May 14th (Taurus)
Gender: Male
Preference/Orientation: Demisexual (with no preference towards any gender)
Height: 5'8ft / 177cm
|| GUARDIAN INFO
Guardian Class: Star
Species:
   (Fallen) Guardian Angel: By their most basic definition, angels are beings believed to act as agents and messengers of God. As a guardian angel, however, Micah's role is further specialized in that he is tasked with the protection of a specific individual for the entirety of their life. Once his charge passes away he is assigned a new one, and the cycle continues. For personal reasons he has since abandoned this life and his home, earning the title of fallen and, subsequently, the progressive blackening of his wings.

Starting Abilities:
  • Flight: Self-explanatory, Micah is able to use his wings to fly.
  • Energy Manipulation: Often confused for a form of telekinesis, this is the ability to manipulate energy from one's surroundings. To maintain control when using this, Micah often envisions the magic in the form of a flat wall, and is therefore able to push (but not pull), people and objects. He can also use it as a makeshift shield.

Likes:
✔ Dimly lit areas. Or even better, actual darkness. He finds being in the dark comforting.
✔ Sweeeeeeeeeets. Does his best to keep it a secret, but he's got an awful sweet tooth.
✔ Candles. Specifically scented candles, with apple and/or cinnamon being his favourite(s).
✔ Theatre. He's kind partial to musicals, though. They're a hit-or-miss with him.
✔ Stained glass art is his favourite kind of art, and no one can change his mind.
✔ Music, although to be more specific, instrumental music. Just something he enjoys to listen to since he can't play an instrument himself.

Dislikes:
✘ HUMANS. And people in general, but mostly humans.
✘ Wasting his time. Especially on stupid things, or when it's not necessary.
✘ Hot weather or temperatures. He'll gladly take cold over hot any day.
✘ Having his personal space invaded. This goes hand-in-hand with any unwelcome signs of affection.
✘ ....Mind-readers? Not that he's ever met any, but the idea of someone being able to invade his head is a great big NO.
✘ When people pop up out of nowhere or catch him off guard. Someone's a lot more jumpy than he'd like to admit //cough

Interests:
✹ Chess. He has a weakness for all kinds of strategy games, really, but mostly chess.
✹ Literature of all genres. Is actually kind of interested in the kinds of books different cultures have to offer.
✹ Masks and the concept of disguise.

Personality:
[ Well-mannered | Secretive | Reclusive | (Im)patient | Prideful | Selfish | Ambitious | Two-faced ]
First impressions imply that the angel is of a gentle nature and a character of few words: friendly, yet reserved. As he rarely seems to take offense, there appear to be few things that can rile the male, and unless you are especially close to him it can be difficult to pin-point exactly what he dislikes. .....Unless you hit the jackpot and manage to show or tell him something he hates. Because regardless of how hard Micah might try to maintain a detached demeanor, there's no hiding the inevitable flash of disgust in his lilac eyes.

While these descriptors aren't wrong, they aren't exactly right either, because they don't account for thought. And as a person who likes to hide his beliefs behind an assumed-to-be-kind persona, what goes on inside Micah's head is crucial to his character. And what goes on there is....the exact opposite of what a person might imagine when they think "angel". Despite the general kindness he extends to those around him, Micah despises people. Especially humans and their fragility. Perhaps it because he's used to being around humans, but this hatred extends to....well, most everyone, so it's safe to assume that starting right from the first meeting he's not going to like you. Maybe it's out of pity, or maybe it's from his own emotional exhaustion, but rather than channel these feelings into cold, biting words Micah chooses to extend kindness.

For the above reasons, he prefers to keep his distance, believing friends to be an inconvenience. But, to the few who have, regardless, managed to worm their way into his heart, they have earned a loyal friend who's not afraid to get his hands dirty. They may even get a glimpse into the inner working's of the angel's mind- but whether this brings them ever closer or pushes them apart depends on the how the other takes it.

Bio:
The purpose of a guardian angel is easily described; their role routine and repetitive. This job is their life, and the future is predictable. Some enjoy the cyclical nature of their given task, but there are others -angels like Micah -who grow sick of watching charge after charge succumb to death, regardless of how well or how poorly they may have performed.

Humans....are fragile creatures. To save them once is to merely postpone death for a handful of years. ...Years that pass by immortals in the blink of an eye. To grow attached to them is good for nothing but heartbreak- a sentiment that Micah himself has fallen victim to time and time again until his once warm heart turned cold with apathy; burn-out and exhausted. Unable to bring himself to care about his role any longer, he let his charge die (his last, human charge), and left his home soon after, throwing away its ideals and his status when he departed.

For a time the now-fallen angel wandered from place to place, free and without purpose for the first time in his life. Without a plan of what to do or how to fill the time, what should have brought him pleasure only carried pain- until on his travels he met and grew close to Nova, a star spirit; a creature who was tasked with a abstract kind of wish fulfillment. Although his life was similar to the one Micah had left behind (for having a wish granted often had short, temporary effects), he clicked with the boy. And he, having pity, invited Micah to visit his home in the stars, hoping that spending time with others would do him some good.

The time spent among this star society did, in fact, do Micah a lot of good, and for a long while he called the place home. Although he was still far from returning to the man he had once been before falling, the kindness shown to him began to melt his cold exterior until it was replaced with the gentle persona he wears today. As an outsider many of the inhabitants could recognize him on sight -his wings being the dead giveaway -and his being an angel was common knowledge. The truth of his being a guardian angel, however, was known by few, but still it was only a matter of time before the society elders learned of his nature. And they sought to exploit it for the benefit of their kind.

They approached Micah and introduced him to the existence of Celest Academy- a school, that given the spirits' connection to the stars, was crucial for their survival. Playing on the angel's grudging debt of gratitude (for having been taken in), they plant the seed of wanting to send him to the school. He was familiar with guarding things, and as much as he might consider it a thing of the past... His thoughts began to sway with their gentle prodding. ....Maybe his was past that couldn't be escaped; maybe guarding truly was his purpose. The one thing he could do with his life. This time around his charge wouldn't be some fragile human, however, but a celestial body. Assured that there was no chance of attachments, and that this position was much more stable than his previous one--
Micah caved in and agreed, deciding to give this guardian role a second try.

|| TRIVIA

✹ His last name is literally the latin word for "angel".
✹ Despite what he or his expression is saying, Micah is probably insulting or berating you for something. Unless you really tick him off, though, chances are he'll keep those thoughts to himself.
✹ His personal bubble shrinks the more he like someone.
✹ Is awful at puzzles, but keeps it a closely guarded secret because talk about embarrassing!
|| RP INFO AND SAMPLES
Where do you like to RP?
Skype is my number one choice since I'm on fairly frequently, and it's where I respond the fastest! Notes are second (since they're easy enough to keep track of), and I'd prefer to keep comments as a last resort because I tend to forget about them ; v ;
Script or Lit?
I personally prefer lit, but I'm happiest doing whatever the other person is most comfortable with! I'm flexible.
What timezone do you live in?
Mountain Standard Time (MST)
Would you like to join the CA Skype Chat? If so, leave your Skype here, or note the group.
Aaaaaah I'm not very good with big group conversations like that, so I might have to pass at first. I'll consider it, though!

RP Restrictions (If any):
Just thinking off the top of my head here, I don't have any restrictions~ I'm pretty open to most things, but if I'm uncomfortable I'll let you know.
Ask Me To RP:
Any topic or thing that would fall under the serious or mature category, like violence/gore or anything considered 18+. As for pairings, I don't like to just smash people together, so if you do want to ship please, please ask me first! I like relationships to come naturally~

Script Sample:
Micah: *there was a big difference between agreeing to go to school and actually being there- and as he squinted down the halls, trying to find the dorm rooms of all things, it became painfully aware just how unprepared he was* Ah, the joy of walking an unfamiliar place for the first time... *at least the last time he'd had to deal with new territory there'd been someone to follow* *knowing that pacing wasn't going to do him any good, he stopped to lean against a nearby wall and folded his arms across his chest. Once his thoughts were in order he'd give it another try*

Lit/Paragraph Sample:
The angel's wings fluttered once and unfurled, reaching out as if to fill the empty space surrounding him, before curling inwards to shroud his shoulders. A quiet hum escaped from parted lips as fingers reached out to stroke the wings, taking comfort in something that was both soft and familiar. Well...mostly familiar. A thumb traced the outline of one of the feathers at the wings tip -a feather that was now irreversibly black- and Micah sighed. Like ink on parchment the stain was spreading quickly, with no promise of slowing or stopping.
