Personality

Cato doesn't consider himself shy but he prefers not to stand out. He is loyal to what friends he has, and will fiercely defend them when threatened. He is only slightly bothered by the possibility of going insane, he likes his ability and considers it a part of himself. He loves books and is fascinated with demons and various mythologies.

Equipment

His most prized possessions currently consist of a battered laptop and a toaster oven.

History

Cato lived with his parents in Haven 12 years ago when the demon lord first attacked. The family home was destroyed and they were forced to evacuate. And then it happened, the demon lord died and the sky rained red. With their home destroyed his parents decided to move away from the city, it was meant to be temporary but as news of the curse spread they decided to stay away.

So Cato grew up living a normal life. Well, until his last year of high school when he began developing supernatural powers. Haven's curse was obviously responsible, and the only place he could hope to learn more about it was the city itself. So after finishing school he applied for a course on demonology at HCU.

He is not registered with the H.O.D.A. and as a result keeps his abilities hidden.

So begins...

The final remnants of the countryside disappeared as the city crept up around the train. Cato Evans stared intently at the dark shape on the horizon, Haven City, the Cursed Haven, it had definitely been a while. The city had changed since he'd lived there too, if the rumors were to be believe his old home was now one of the most heavily demon infested areas in the world. He sighed, ever since he made the decision to return he'd been hoping to find some connection to the place but so far he felt nothing.

Time passed quickly and soon the train was swallowed by the city. Cato gazed up at the massive dark buildings around him feeling small. The tired voice of the driver informed the passengers they would soon be reaching their destination. Cato gathered his bags as the train came to a stop, he smiled unable to ignore the excitement he was feeling. The doors swung open and the passengers wearily, filed out onto the cold platform. Cato took a deep breath, this was it, this was the beginning.

Cato slowly made his way through the plaza, trying to take it all in. He'd dropped his bags off at the HCU dorms about an hour ago and now he was wandering around like a tourist. They'd made him sign all sorts of forms which basically let them off the hook if he died a horrible death on campus. He sighed, what else should he have expected from the cursed city? And then they'd asked the question he'd been dreading, "has Haven's condition affected you in anyway?" "No". He probably shouldn't have done that, if anyone found out he would be kicked out of the university and dragged away by the H.O.D.A. Still, if he came clean he'd have to register with the H.O.D.A. and he didn't trust that organisation, too many horrible rumors were floating around. He sighed again, it didn't matter now there was no going back and for the moment he was getting away with it.

Cato yawned, if he was going to keep exploring he'd need some help. He ducked out of the crowds and into a nearby cafe. "Coffee" he mumbled to the cashier as he pulled out a handful of change.

Cato looked around the cafe drinking the coffee. A girl about his age was answering her phone and a middle aged man was falling asleep on one of the tables, much to the dismay of the waitress. A shady looking guy dressed in black had just walked in, he looked dangerous, not that Cato could talk, his own clothes were pretty dark and his shadow could probably suffocate half the cafe. Still, Cato resolved to keep an eye on him, just in case he tried any funny business.

"Coffee, black" Will said to the waitress as he sat next to the guy in black. "Are you the one who ordered this?" dropping a claw from the creature he killed. "Now lets talk about my pay. id say 200 for the job, another 100 for for the claw 50 for my coat and 20 for my coffee. lets just make it an even 500 shall we."Will puts his feet up and waits for his coffee.

Jane hit the send button, relaxing back in her seat. "Wonder how class will be later on.." She murmured, picking up her beverage and sipping more. She sighed and ran a hand through her hair, looking around when new customers had came in. She observed them, humming when she watched the man in black and the man who had dropped the claw. She raised an eyebrow, was that linked with some of the demons...? She could simply shrug and looked to another newcomer. This one look like a student, maybe she's seem around the university. There was rumors of a new student coming in as well. She ripped her eyes away from the citizens, taking another drink of her tea. She tilted the cup to see how much she had left, biting her lip when her favorite drink was close to finish. She'd probably order another to go..

Surprise turned to panic as Cato realized what he was talking to. It wasn't even his first day in the city and he was already being targeted by one of those psychos, this was bad. A bead of sweat trickled down Cato's forehead, he'd heard about demon hunters hunting down freaks like him. He forced himself to stay calm, as far as he knew there wasn't anyone who wanted him dead, even if this hunter had tracked him down there was a good chance he was just trying to intimidate him. Cato noticed he'd been silent for too long, he'd have to play along for now.

"I think" said Cato, his voice shaking, "that you've made a mistake." Cato's shadow started to slowly move and began to cover the hunter. Cato started to regain his confidence if it came to that he didn't plan on going down without a fight.

Kat had been in town for a day or so and she yet again was alone like every other time " Where is that cafe ? " She once again was lost in the Plaza, Kat tryed to get someone to help but no one would even stop to help her out " This is like all the other place I have been " she muttered to her self " someone help " when she said that someone bumbed into her and knocked her down, then someone steped on her hand " Shit!!!" she screamed the sound wave blow people over and broke some near by window. " sorry.. sorry she said over and over as she stood up and ran off " Crap crap " Kat ended up at the cafe

"Oh is that so..." taking another look at the kid in black, "Well shit guy must have skipped town. No more under the table deals for me I'm gonna collect first kill later." From in his jacket William pulls out a card and hands it to the kid. "Names William, but you can call me will," he says with a smile, "I haven't seen you around much so i figured you were my employer sorry about that." Will quickly hid the claw in his jacket moments before the waitress handed him his coffee.

OOC:Supposed to be in plaza sorry guys.

"Okay" Cato said, slowly studying the hunter as he took the card. Haven was a pretty chaotic place maybe it wasn't that unlikely that he'd run into one of them. He faked a smile "Name's Cato Evans, I just got here this morning", just play nice he told himself, "so you're a demon hunter, huh? I heard you guys were just a myth".
A sudden sharp incredibly loud sound broke the tension, a window cracked and a strange girl threw herself into the cafe. Cato glanced at the hunter, he seemed surprised, this wasn't a trap... well at least not his trap. A siren blared outside as people rushed around, just what the hell had happened? He momentarily ignored the hunter and turned to the new girl, "are you alright" he asked as he stood up and began to approach her, "what happened?" Cato couldn't deny the excitement he was feeling, something messed up and possibly supernatural just happened outside, this was his reason for coming!

Kat lookedat this man in front of her and smiled as she scratched her head " I got knocked down and steped on when I tried to find my way in... I got a bit mad.... thats all, didn't mean to break the window or anything" she laughed a bit and walked over to the waitress " could I have a iced tea.. when you get a moment " she then turned around back to the man that broke her dull day " would you like to she with me ?" she asked " My name is Kat Ravencroft and it is very nice to meet you " Kat sat down very so lady like and waited of her new friend to sit down with her.

Cato sat down beside the strange girl. He couldn't believe it, she'd just admitted to causing the commotion outside. Was she corrupted? It seemed likely. "So what exactly did you just do?" he said in a hushed voice, "and don't you think you should be a little quieter when talking about stuff like that?" The hunter was still there they were both in danger. He tried to block her from his view.

"She just told you what she did boy can't you hear?" Will says with a laugh as he pulls a chair up to sit with the two,"and he is right miss there are big bad hunters out there that would have a field day with someone like you. Luckily no one was killed so you wont have to worry about me, but there is a possibility that someone will be after you now. Here is my card first job is free next one cost double and feel free to call when your in trouble which by the commotion outside may be very soon." With a quick laugh, a bow, and an invisible hat tip William walks out the door. "I've got to keep an eye on that boy if i were any other hunter one wrong move and i would have been done."

Her ears seemed to hurt now. That strange sound was audible around here, yet it wasn't strong enough to break the glass or her ears. They rang for a moment, flinching quietly before noticing a frantic woman walk in. She watched as the previous customer came and helped her, smiling lightly. Haven City still had it's kind citizens... She watched as the dark man walked out of the cafe, reminding her of her own curfew. She was never legally bound to sleep at a certain time or anything, she just didn't want to be out too late. She still had studies and such.

She gathered her things, checking her signature bag to make sure everything was still in tact. She threw away her empty drink, walking up to the cashier and awaiting for service. She tapped the counter quietly, watching as she let the small green glow on her fingertips fade in and out repeatedly. When she heard footsteps, she ceased playing around, simply smiling at the man that came to help her. "Hello, I'd like to just order an iced strawberry tea and I'll be on my way." She slipped out the money from her purse, placing down a five dollar bill.

With a couple buzzes and clicks, the man returned her change and gave her her receipt. She stepped to the side, letting other customers go and waiting in the corner patiently. Checking her watch, Jane rocked on her heel a couple times, taking one last look to observe the other people.

Cato bit his lip, he'd really intended on hiding his abilities for as long possible, he wasn't registered with the H.O.D.A. and he planned on keeping it that way. Still, this was the first time meeting one of his own kind and he hadn't had the chance to show off before. He scanned the cafe, the hunter really had gone. Cato grinned as the shadow cast by his arm darkened and stretched out, the shadow moved and wrapped itself around a cup and dragged it across the table into he open hand.
"You were lucky this time" he said turning serious "that hunter was an anomaly, I just got here this morning and even I've heard enough stories about those bloodthirsty nutcases." He took a gulp a cold coffee, "I know I really shouldn't be giving advice about this sort of thing, but I've done my research. Powers like that are worse than taboo, hunters, the H.O.D.A. and even ordinary people will hold them against you". Cato sighed, "If you're looking for a job, I guess you could try campus security at HCU, I heard them talking about a few openings. It shouldn't be to hard to get hired, barley anyone applies anymore... after all those guys got eaten..."

Kat looked at Cato " thankyou very muc, I shall check that out" than she thought for a moment " wait what do you mean he got eaten.... " she asked with her heart start racing " what ate them.. was... was it a demon? " Kat had a fear of them sence childhood and never gotten over it. When she grped her cup her hand begain to shake "are you sure they got eaten?" she asked before he had a chance to answer her first question.

The girl's eye's widened with fear, maybe he shouldn't have mentioned the getting eaten part, then again if she got the job she'd find out anyway. "Well, yeah it was probably demons" he started "this is Haven after all. I don't know much about it but there was an incident a few months back, I think a higher demon might have built its nest in one of the old dorms" he paused for a moment "it's gone by now, but there were fatalities..." It had been hard to find any information on that particular story, it was obviously bad publicity for HCU and they didn't want it to be spread around, but the students still knew and one had been kind enough to the leak to story onto the internet, where Cato found it.
Cato yawned, he'd almost reached his limit, he should have slept when he dropped off his bags at the dorms. He hoped his new roommate didn't look through any of them, his demon obsession was pretty obvious. "I'm gonna head home" he yawned again. He pulled a pen out of his pocket and scrawled some digits on a napkin, "here's my number, call it if you need any help." It wasn't much, he knew that, but she just seemed so helpless and this was the best he could do. "My name's Cato by the way, Cato Evans."

" Its very nice to you.. yes we both should get going" Kat sat up and payed for her drink, shoved the numbers that she had gotten in her pocket and walked back over to Cato " well thanks for all the help I hope that we meet again " she added before she lefted the cafe. Kat walked around the Plaza a bit more before she noticed that a man was following her " That demon hunter jinxed me " she muttered to her self as she turned a corner in to a ally way that seemed to be a dead end.

" Little girl... little girl " the man said over and over " I saw what you did "

Kats heart seemed to stop in that moment " I dont know what your talking about"

The man smiled " tell the truth little girl... I know what you are and I can get a high price on you "

Kat closed her eyes and fell to her knees, she had no idea what she was going to do. the Man grabed her and put hand cuffs on her when she had and Idea. Kat moved quickly out of his way. she begain to sing softly so the man was the only one to hear.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hReJBDbb7Y((this is the lullaby that Kat is singing ))

" What are you doing That man said " he ran after her but she did not stop singing.The man soon after fell to the ground fast asleep. Kat stoped once he was knocked out and ran out of the ally and into the crowd to hide.

Cato sluggishly made his way out of the cafe, that coffee hadn't done its job. He took two wrong turns before doubling back and finding the subway. He was barely awake by the time he reached the dorms. He trekked up the stairs to his room. Someone was already inside, it was time to meet his new roommate. Cato groaned he wasn't in the mood for introductions. He jammed his key into the door and the lock clicked open.
"Hi I'm Cato" he mumbled as he dragged himself through the door, "I guess we're roommates so..." He finally got a look at his "new roommate". Standing in the center of the room was the hunter from before. Cato stared him down, "this isn't happening".

"Oh hey kid, guess your the new guy," he lays in his bed and continues talking,"Lets set some ground rules shall we. First and most important what happens in the room stays in the room, next don't touch my sword. I know shes pretty but Scarlet is my girl got that. Finally were roommates which means we need to have at least 80% trust in each other. So here we go."

Will snaps his fingers and a small white flame forms in his hand. He makes it dance around the room before having it land in Cato's hand. "I call it the righteous flame. It took a while to master this but its useful. It only hurts evil creatures and that includes humans. To tell you the truth that flame would have completely incinerated you like my last two roommates, but you passed so welcome."
