Name: Timothy
Age: appears about 20, but is actually a good deal older
Gender: male
Species: human
Height: 5 foot 3 inches (as in, reeeeeal short)
Weight: 115 pounds
Build: short and thin. He's been mistaken for a girl once or twice.
Description: His hair is light brown long enough to make a 3-4 inch ponytail with; he ties it so it stays out of his face. His eyes are light blue and sharply contrast his general color scheme. When he talks to people he usually finds himself looking up.
Clothing: He dresses in a very easy-to-draw light brown long-sleeve canvas tunic and matching pants. He doesn't like to wear loud, flashy clothes.
Accessories: He always carries a large, plain canvas bag in which he keeps, among other things, an unremarkable mortar and pestle, several hundred different types of herbs, grasses, and other plants with interesting medical or magical properties (including a few that he’s trying to identify), a large bag of his favorite type of tea leaves, and of course his favorite tea mug. It's kind of a small white mug with three blue bands painted around it near the rim, and no handle. And it's ONLY for tea.
Occupation / Class: Apothecary.
Pets: well, not a pet, but he is being followed sometimes by a rather troublesome shadow elemental named Irisorm trying to make his life miserable.
Abilities/Skills & Power Level: Given enough time, he can do just about anything with plants, whether it be love potions, exorcism powder, Instant Sunlight In A Jar, or a lethal poison. And it doesn't stop there - he also knows how to make explosives, such as flash powder or cherry bombs or fireworks. Plus, he's a good cook and makes a superb cup of tea.
Weaknesses: He's small and not very strong. Though he's pretty agile, that doesn't help him much. Thus, he tends to lose fights on a level playing field. In addition, the inside of his bag is a mess, and so he sometimes has trouble finding what he's looking for, or if he's really unlucky, he might pull out the wrong thing if he's in a hurry, which can have disastrous results. He's not trained with conventional weapons (swords etc.), and he only carries two knives, both in need of sharpening, which he uses to gather plants sometimes. Also he's not up to speed on modern technology; anything more advanced than electric lights or phonographs baffles him.
Special Effects (if any): He does NOT possess well. That means if something tries to take over his body, it either doesn't work at all or doesn't work nearly as well as it should. Obviously that's not a particularly useful special effect most of the time, but... it's there.
Description of Personality: Chivalry is not dead. Timothy is the one keeping it going. :3 He's friendly and cheerful and treats women with great respect, never hesitating to come to the aid of the "damsel in distress." He's naturally curious, but tries not to pry, being very polite at almost all times. Maybe he read too many medieval romances when he was a kid, I don't know...
Brief History: No one's really sure except him. He may reference his past from time to time, but only in extremely vague, noncommittal terms...
A brief and character revealing answer to the question, "What is your ambition?": "To help other people however I can."
