Full Name: Soren Cedric Pelacour
Nicknames/Aliases: Soren, Great Leader, Icy-Hot
Age: 97, physically appears about 25 or so
Gender: Male
Gift: Temperature Manipulation
Loyalty: Originally Liberty as Leader, now Wanderer
Description: Soren appears fairly androgynous, with soft features, gentle green eyes, and a general mellow disposition. Pale blond hair frames his face, and his form is made up of lean muscle. Soren is of fairly average height, although he tends to appear smaller than he really is at times. Typically, he wears whatever he can find, although he leans towards dress shirts or sweaters if he can.
Personality: In spite of who he is and what he stands for, Soren is quite affable. He tends to be very open and empathetic, sitting down to lend an ear towards whoever might need it, and providing advice after. His age shows through his patterns and speech and ways of taking things into consideration, and he usually prefers to talk things out in favor of settling a quarrel physically. However, when worked up about a topic, he has a tendency to fly into a fit of passion, discarding his usual soft spokenness and expressing his feelings as strongly as possible.
Although he prefers to stay in the background while around the Wanderers, on occasion, the authority of his years and old position as Leader will shine through- typically to scold others for their actions. Asides from this, Soren is also very paternal, and will often retire to read a story for his children.
Skills: Soren holds the ability to raise and lower the temperature to the very extremes, ranging from the boiling heat of a sun, to complete subzero. Through his time in the wars and general age, he has mastered this power- as well as a variety of skills in combat- although he prefers not to use his abilities at all. Asides from his Gift, Soren is also an excellent diplomat and leader, able to rouse and sway a crowd to his favor.
Soren is also an excellent baker, and enjoys making various confectioneries in his spare time.
Weaknesses: As previously mentioned, Soren prefers not to resort to violence, being a pacifist through both experience and his own nature. Combined with this, if someone attempted to murder him, he would hardly make an effort to defend himself, opting to use his strength to protect those he cares about instead.
Brief History: Sorenâs life was rather...rocky, growing up. Having been born during the years of mounting tension between humans and Gifted, he and his family experienced a fair deal of racism. They were poor, forced to live in a ghetto and relying on what odd jobs were provided to them, but he was a cheerful child nevertheless. His two mothers provided a strong influence in his life, having a large hand in influencing his distinctly feminine personality, as did his uncle. Soren looked greatly up to his uncle, often going to visit him at the family bakery and hoping to take up the job one day.
Eventually, however, his family was accused of crimes they did not commit, and taken away. He lived for some time on the streets, only to be taken away himself at the age of twelve. Soren spent several years in the âcontainment facilitiesâ of the humans, and, during that time, his resentment towards them only grew. By the time he was released, he was a young adult, and immediately went to join the anti-human groups that were steadily rising up. He quickly rose in rank, perfecting his power and using it to strike vengeance against those who had wronged him. Soren made several close friends during this time, although it did not stop the nightmares that came with his work.
After the war had ended, and seeing the mayhem and fear that followed, Soren acted. Using his already-existent favor as a war hero, as well as his natural charisma, he birthed one of the two factions- Liberty- and became its Leader. He adopted two children soon after, only to receive another through a project his faction started- a project that restored him to a younger age, gave him access to a sort of âfountain of youthâ. Project Clockwork.
Soren soon grew to loathe what he had created, although he attempted to fix things for several years. Eventually, he went out in search of someone to cure his sonâs- a Councillor, at the time- insanity, and found himself among the Wanderers. He found himself staying with them in spite of his daughterâs death at the hands of one of their members, and currently remains with them- along with Percival, his son, and Clockwork, his youngest daughter.
