GENERAL
Name: Mihai Ionescu
Age: 22

Class: Oracle
Power: Poison being his element, Mihai's magic is often morbid. His works often involve fumes and liquids that rot and decay anything they reach. It's easily deadly, and demands caution when it can backfire, not on him per se, but on the surroundings. [Reserving the rights to update this part later :x]
LOOKS
Hair: Golden-ish, light-brownish in a shaggy bob cut. It tends to be messy.
Eyes: Crimson.

PERSONALITY
- Smooth; Mihai is charming. Very charming if he wants. The boy has a way with words that often gets him exactly where he wants, when he wants. He's usually very friendly at first glance.
- Chipper; Being cheerful regardless of the circumstances are one of Mihai's best, and possibly most annoying, features. He will chat with his own shadow if there's no one around.
- Curious; The world is a gigantic surprise box to him, and he enjoys finding out new things everyday. It helps that he grows tired of his toys often enough, too, so he's always on the look out for fresh experiences.
- Quirky; Anyone that has gotten to meet him will agree, Mihai is not for the faint hearted. He's odd, at least. He's a free spirit that follows his own will at any time, regardless of the rules and the situation.
- Clever; Street smart is one of the many things one would call Mihai. He's quick to catch on the news and make his way around it.
- Mischievous; The boy is very playful, adoring pranks and practical jokes of any sort.
- Reckless; A little too spontaneous to make long term plans, and he is maybe a little too much of an airhead to be cautious at times.
- Manipulative; He adores dancing around people with words, telling stories and having his audience look right when he goes left. It's a talent that he's not even ashamed of.
- Vengeful; One should be careful not to upset Mihai, he will hold a grudge for years. He will take every chance he gets to get even, including but not limited to backstabbing and blackmailing.
- Selfish; There is one person worth saving in the world and that is Mihai himself. He is likely to be the one yelling "Save your women, children and Mihai first!" in a fire.
Likes:
- Decadence; He'd die happy if he had only all night parties with overly dressed people, cheesy outfits and kitschy conversation. Candles and bubble baths are a must.
- Magic; Like a moth to a lamp, Mihai is attracted by all things shiny that could end up killing a careless one. It doesn't even need to be his element, really.
- Alcohol and shady candy; He does like his poison. All types of it.
- Stories; the boy loves being entertained with great tales of adventure in faraway lands. If there's a happy ending, even better. Just watch out when it's his time to talk, it might be hard to make him stop.
- Blood; He has an odd fascination for watching it splatter and run and drip. It's even better if its his enemies'.
Dislikes:
- Boredom; the boy might be bordering hyper-activeness, but truth is, it's hard to keep him still for too long. Just let him look around and touch stuff, and you'll spare yourself a headache. He won't break anything. Most likely.
- Sun; it's bright, it's hot, it's unbearable. Mihai is a natural night owl, he'll prefer traveling at night.
- Frugality; Lucky him money comes easy to Oracles, the boy is a terrible manager and enjoy spending money in a way most people would roll eyes at.
- Seriousness; Mihai enjoys a good laugh, often played at the expense of others. He does not work well with over organized, cold, stressed out people.
- Loneliness; He's a people's person. He enjoys chatting and fooling around, but it's hardly any fun without anyone to share the blame with. He loves hugs and kisses, too.
Goals:
- Travel around he world and spread
chaoshis Esper's faith; Being essentially the Oracle of Rot and Decay has gotten him kicked out of a couple of places, but he tries to keep optimistic.- Becoming more powerful; It will make it harder for people to overlook and overthrow him if he's strong.
- Learning all there is about magic; More like a limitless curiosity, Mihai seeks knowledge.
HISTORY
Born in the outskirts of Balfonheim, Mihai was introduced to the Order of the Impure as soon as his parents noticed Cuchulainn's mark on him. Since a baby, he was trained by the monks to excel in magic and represent well their Esper.
Mihai had, like any Oracle, a safe but rough childhood. He experimented with potions and poisons, often with bad results, to perfect his element. Often, too, the monks had him endure physical training, in order to prepare for war against the other Oracles. Beatings, humiliation starvation, and even sensory deprivation were weekly happenings for Mihai while he grew up.
Used to being the center of attention as a child, it might come as a surprise to hear he never made many friends; as Mihai always had a lesson or another, it left him little room to actually talk to children his age. He had little contact with anyone outside the circle of the higher ranking monks, it's surprising the boy didn't grow apathetic and antisocial.
Having recently concluded his official training at the age of 20, Mihai has been traveling the world for two years. He's been getting to explore and meet people, enjoying what he couldn't in his teenage years. Sometimes Mihai may come up as oblivious sometimes, being completely unaware of what most people consider to be a normal childhood and what borders child abuse.
ROLEPLAY SAMPLE
(Dragon AU)
It was a storming night when Mihai Ionescu reached the cliffs known to be the beasts’ lair. The other villagers tried to warn him, about their size, about their presence, about their eyes, but the boy, barely 16 at the time, didn’t listen to a word of it.
When the dragon stared back at him, darker than the caves shadows and with a gaze that could read Mihai’s very soul, he trembled. The voice that spoke aloud was as deep as the night itself, but somehow the boy could hear the dragon clearly, and he wondered if it could also speak to his mind. “What do you want, human?” Mihai swallowed hard, and had the dragon not been stealing the fishermen’s catches, he could’ve have sworn he was about to be eaten alive.
“I want you to stop eating our fish! Err, sir!”
The dragon shifted over its paws, and it appeared to grin at Mihai.
“The sea is empty, boy. You keep all the fish. I will not leave.”
