Description: James has curly black hair and striking green eyes, with a solid build and a natural tan. He is well in shape because of his job. He prefers ordinary clothing that avoids drawing attention, and often stands with his arms crossed in front of his chest. He is very quick to move and react, and is surprisingly light on his feet.
Personality: Being a first generation gifted among a hidden rebel group of gifted-hating humans demanded that James be secretive and wary, always careful to modify memories that might betray his powers. He keeps to himself, though he is always aware of those around him. He only loosens up and relaxes around his lover, who is also the one employing him as a bodyguard. James isn’t very expressive with his emotions, but makes up for it with his attentiveness to Damien’s wants and needs.
Skills:
-What gifts he does have, he knows how to use well
-Very fast reaction time
-Well trained with guns, knives, and physical fighting techniques
-Does not rely on gifts like so many Gifted do
Weaknesses:
-Is paid to think of Dami before he thinks of himself
-Is Damien’s official lover
-Is a weak gifted in terms of power level
Brief History: Born to the last group of humans in the wasteland, James’s gifts came to light slowly. The doctrine he was taught was challenged by his mental gift to read intent, which for many of the “abominations” they hunted, was only to protect and survive. He thought to try to explain this to his family, but as their actions grew more extreme, the young man began to think that “family” wouldn’t protect him from their rage. His hypothesis proved to be true when another of the children, a boy named Spire, proved to be gifted and began to be abused for his power, which pushed James to leave. He attempted to take that boy and his brother with him, but both refused, so he left after erasing Toby’s slips in keeping his power to himself and blurring Spire’s memory of the entire conversation.
James travelled to the fanciful Erubesco Citadel, and admitted himself for testing which gave him citizenship. Expecting to be conscripted for the army, James found a different path by becoming the bodyguard of a young Lord, Damien Moore. Though he knows several secrets that the faction ought to know, Damien’s employment keeps him safe from the faction’s grasp.
Other:
-He bribed Toby with candy, so that the little boy never told his older brother that there was a third gifted among the humans
