Full Name: Christina Eberhart-Taroni
Nicknames/Aliases: Charm, Chriss
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Species: Sorceress
Post/Rank: Lore Expert
Description: Christina has long black hair that she keeps in elaborate but practical hairstyles, while out on the field she settles for a harsh bun in the absence of mirrors and styling tools. Her eyes are a pale green hazel. She is of average height, and a healthy weight for her age, but she is not built to be physically offensive.
Her personal style is more long skirts and billowing sleeves, but at work Christina dresses practically, in clothing that wonât get caught in doors and is usually charmed to be fire resistant. A typical work outfit is slacks and a button down shirt. However, she usually has several charms on her person in forms of jewelry, made of cheap material that will break easily
Personality: Christina comes off as very prideful, but this is the result of her need to prove herself even without her parentsâ mentorship. She is stubborn to a fault and completely self reliant, all of which makes her someone who will not ask for help until itâs almost too late. Any implication (even imagined ones) that she is somehow inferior to others send her into a coldly defensive rage. Normally, however, she is helpful, open, cheerful and talkative. She is used to being on her own and has trouble being on a team, but in social situations prefers to be with groups of people. She loves to be flattered.
Skills: Specializes in infusing objects with magic that activates when that object breaks. She is also very skilled in creating new spells, but has failed to realize her natural talent as she searches for a link to her dead parents - the very ability she has never trained to full potential. Another talent is both âsearch and findâ spells, as well as summoning spells. Christina knows the theory and workings inside out, and has memorized more than a few examples, from the years sheâs spent trying to either locate or call her family spellbook to her. She is also good at researching and extrapolating data. She also has police training, having worked as an officer for a year before being noticed by SCION.
Weaknesses:
-Is very keen to prove herself, to the point where she avoids asking for help at almost all costs
-Has no access to her family spellbook, so unlike most sorcerers, she has no unique tricks up her sleeves
Brief History: Christina is missing a lot of her childhood memories, beyond the normal forgetfulness of age. What she knows of her family is brief impressions of caring and warmth and everything else is supplied by reading. She was orphaned at the age of three, then adopted by a different sorcerer family, who taught her about magic. When her fellow sorcerers began to learn how to summon their spellbooks, she learned that her own was missing, and endured teasing for this fact, making her determined to prove that spellbook or not, she could bring honour to her family line. She began to study search-and-find spells, as well as summoning spells, hoping to recall the coveted book and in the process discovered the affinity of her bloodlines. As advised by her adopted parents, she took the name "Eberhart-Taroni" when she moved out of their house and immediate protection. She studied to become a police officer and was employed as one for a year before her use of magic during a chase brought her to the attention of the newly reformed SCION, who had spoken with her father about utilizing the research that got him killed. Even though the young woman knew nothing of the research, she was still skilled enough to be offered a position in the SCION ranks. Hoping that she could get closer to her personal goal through SCION's greater focus on the supernatural, Christina accepted, and soon the young officer was "transferred" to a new division and the communication information was mysteriously lost during the move.
