Full Name:
Atticus Sevan Cato
   
Nicknames and Aliases:
Atta;
Only for people he's close to or comfortable with. He isn't a fan of nicknames.
Pixie;
A playful nickname that his father and brother used a lot in reference to his Majik.
Sevan;
He occasionally uses his middle name as an alias when the time calls for it.
   
Gender:
Male
   
Age:
18
   
Sexual Orientation:
Demisexual

Weapon & Majik:
Spear;
A rather simple spear that used to bear his family's former insignia; he's long since scratched it out. A thin chain runs through the inside of it, allowing the midsection to be pulled apart so the weapon can be folded and transported easier.

Light Majik;
By most people, Light Majik is typically deemed useless since it doesn't have the ability to aid anyone physically. When used right, it does have many conventional uses, and, when mastered, it can be quite the tool.

Creation; he's able to generate light in a variety of fashions. The most commonly used is small orbs for convenient, everyday lighting. It takes a bit more energy, but he can generate sudden, bright flashes to stun people momentarily. He can also leave trails from his fingertips - a sort of fluorescent dust seems to follow it.
Absorption; if he's close enough to them, he's capable of absorbing light sources. He can either fully eliminate one, or simply dim the light being projected. To create light, he first has to absorb it, similar to charging a battery. Just being out in the sun is enough to refill his 'charge'.
Illusions; By bending waves of light, he can project illusions for short amounts of time. The more complicated the image is, the more difficult it is to maintain the illusion.

M E N T A L

Personality:
{Conceited, Sarcastic, Cynical, Stubborn, Charismatic}
Atticus has always been very egotistic and haughty, though it's well deserved. He takes pride in every skill he learns and every attribute of his, but doesn't talk himself up above his own abilities. Never once has he doubted or looked down on himself, as he considers any failure or flaw as perfectly natural, something that can be fixed with enough hard work and perseverance. Similarly, he doesn't look down on others for the same reason. If anything, if he sees someone who's struggling with something or someone with an obvious, glaring flaw, he wants to help them. That is, perhaps, the main reason he enjoys his time with the prince, as he wants to help him better himself so he can become one of the best possible leaders for Deamore.

He isn't all nice and supportive, though- within moments of speaking with him, it's easy to tell that he enjoys sarcasm and cynicism. He won't hesitate to throw around what seem to be rude or degrading quips during conversation if he deems them necessary... which he usually does. It's easily noted from his playful tone and the occasional smirk that he's never very serious about what he says. Atticus has the capability of turning his speech right around and becoming a sly smooth-talker when the situation calls. He knows how to sway people's minds and decisions, and can be very persuasive when he wants to be.

When it comes to his goals and decisions, he's adamant about every one of them. If he sets his mind on something, you can bet he'll get it done or get seriously beaten to a pulp, metaphorically or physically, in the process. One of the things that he's notably stubborn about is his protectiveness over the prince and his care for the younger boy's well-being. As such a loyal servant, he'll go to great lengths to make sure that Elliot is safe and content.
   
Hobbies:
Skygazing;
His favorite pastime is laying in the grass and watching the clouds roll by.
Puzzles;
He's notably very good at a variety of puzzles, from crosswords to sudoku to actual jigsaw puzzles.
Dance;
Because his parents were always very open and active in the art of dance, he's taken a liking to it. He knows a variety of styles, though swing and street are his favorites because of the loose movements.
Smoking;
He carries a golden pipe with him resembling a kiseru. When stressed or when he just needs a break, he can be seen smoking different varieties of herbs from it with many different effects.
      
Habits:
Covering His Mouth;
When thinking or laughing, he'll cover his mouth with a semi-closed fist.
Pulling His Hair;
He tugs and pulls at his hair when he's nervous or flustered.
Falling Asleep;
If he isn't actively doing something, he's liable to nod off in the middle of the day.
Touching;
Without even noticing it, he likes to be touching others when walking or sitting, even if it's just brushing their arms or knees together. It used to be much worse, as he would hold people's hands without a second thought.
     
Likes/Loves:
  • Citrus
  • Upbeat music
  • Socializing
  • Kids
  • Peace & quiet
  • Shopping


Dislikes/Hates:
  • Dark chocolate
  • Carbonated drinks
  • Losing
  • Travelling
  • Snakes
  • Darkness
Strengths:
Polearm Mastery;
Though he's obviously most proficient with a bladed weapon, he's capable of fighting with a blunt one as well.
Light Majik;
It isn't very useful in battle, but he can still use his Majik skillfully.
Lithe;
Because he trains as often as possible, he's very flexible and generally in-shape.
Analytic Skills;
He's proven himself to be a very observant and smart person, able to carefully analyze situations before coming to the best course of action.
Herbal Knowledge;
Because of his mother's profession, he has an extensive knowledge of different herbs, from edible ones to poisonous ones to healing ones.


Weaknesses:
Nyctophobia;
A fear he carried from his childhood. His Majik makes this an inconvenience at most. However, if unable to create light for himself, he'll quickly begin panicking.
Snakes;
He has a deep-rooted hatred for snakes, ever since a venomous one bit him as a child.
Obedience;
Ever since he was young, he's always had trouble following orders. He's learned to respect the prince and princess enough to follow after them, but if anyone else tries to order him around then you can bet he'll fight back in the brattiest way possible.
Children;
No matter what, he'd never be able to bring himself to hurt a child in any way, shape or form.
Elliot & Lisia;
As someone who's served the royal family for his entire life, he has a deep sense of loyalty for the pair and would give his own life before he let anyone harm them.

H I S T O R Y
Atticus was born to a family that had worked under the rule of Deamore's royalty for many generations. His father, Hovannes, was tasked with taking care of the kingdom's archives while his mother, Ermine, worked in the kitchens. His elder brother, Aram, spent much of his time doing odd jobs to rake up extra money for their family. Atticus spent a lot of his childhood shadowing his brother and helping his parents with their work. When he was old enough to begin his education, he found out that it had been decided years prior that he would be training to directly serve the prince. As such a stubborn and egotistic child, he whined about it plenty and put up a fight during his studies. However, he eventually caved, realizing that there wasn't much he could do about it. He eventually grew rather excited about his upcoming duties as the prince's servant because he'd been told about what an important job it would be.

One night without a moment's notice, he was abruptly pulled from his bed by his elder brother. He was too tired to remember, but he vaguely made out the word 'murder' from Aram's frantic rambling. For reasons he was unsure of, he was taken to meet with Elliot and Lisia, as well as two strangers who he soon came to know as Sonia and Lucia Mirakel. Atticus revolted plenty and tried to get his brother to let him stay, but it was no use. He left that night with the small group, utterly infuriated with everyone around him as well as his family. For several long months he resented each of the people he was with, saying that they were the reason he had to leave his family. Despite this, he still begrudgingly did the duties he'd been taught as the prince's servant because he knew it was what his parents would want him to do. It took him a long time, but he finally managed to convince himself that he was being irrational and childish about everything. He saw how the other four were affected as well by what happened, and so he eventually began to let them in and treat them as his new family.

What was it about the town square that made Lisia feel so exposed? To her, it was as if someone was parading her around, screaming her name at the top of their lungs. Not her alias, the name given to her the day she escaped the clutches of the "king". No, her real name. The name of Deamore's Crown Princess. Lisia was positive that her fake name did not suit her. Lis Mirakel made her sound as though she was just another face in the crowd. On the other hand, Lisia Hallowell made her sound regal and unique. She was not entirely sure if sounding regal is what she wanted though. Maybe the sleepy town life was the way she should spend her years. Surely whoever took the throne after Jonathon died would be a much more gracious king. Lisia did not know that for sure though.

So, for the time being, she would wait for the opportunity to kick that phony king off his oh-so-high throne. She had to win against him. Lisia looked up from the book she was pretending to read to watch the people passing by outside. Her face was shadowed over by her cloak, but she was still terrified that someone would notice them. Sonia didn't even know that Lisia and her servant Lucia were out of the house. She was happy that Elliot agreed to cover for her; she couldn't spend another moment cooped up.

Now that she was in town though, she wondered if it was worth it. If one of Jonathon's forces found out who she was, they would have her head then and there. Lisia put the book back on the shelf, wondering where Lucia was with their coffee. She wanted to leave town soon so she could spend a quiet day reading at her favorite spot by the cliffsides. Absently, the brunette girl ran her hands along the spine of the books.

She loved the feeling of their leather binding beneath her fingertips. It reminded her of her late mother in a way. Caprice had been so fond of reading. Lisia felt as though it brought her closer to her parents. Her memories of them were few and far between, but the emotions that came with thoughts of them were too much to not love. Warmth, kindness, love... Lisia shook her head as if it would clear the thoughts away. It worked for a moment when she pulled a heavy volume off the shelf. She flipped through it. It was well-written, constructed with an artistic grace.

With a sigh, Lisia sat herself down on one of the many provided chair. She turned to the first page, her eyes hungrily eating up the words. What is fate? Is it the abstract thought that governs our lives or is it nothing more than a romantic notion that was created by man long ago?

Lisia sometimes wondered that herself.

ImageJade smiled at his surroundings. His small team was in place, he was in place, and he certainly wasn't about to waste the best and most amazing opportunity to make fun of his most hated friend, not really a friend in any way, king. He wouldn't bow or call him a king ever, just because he hated the lunatic.

Jade was about to give the signal to move when he caught sight of something, someone, that he never thought he'd see again. Was this really happening? How could it be? Maybe Jade was going crazy, but was that the princess down there? The one person that he had searched for for years? The one person that could truly save the kingdom.

Jade left his place of hiding, not concerned about being caught or reocgnized though he knew he should be. He even walked past his wanted poster, the one word he could read. He smiled slightly as he yanked the paper down and continued walking towards the girl. Only then did he give be signal, giving a flourish of his right hand as he didn't pause.

Rather suddenly, a group of ten, fifteen maybe, of his group appeared in the square, chasing down guards that were being cruel or harsh to the people of the small town. This was the fifteenth one that month Jade had personally visited to assist with. He was recognized by a guard and when charged, ducked under the man to throw him over his shoulder without so much as pausing his stride towards the red haired girl.

"Hey, hey girl, we gotta talk if only for a moment," Jade sakes to her as he approached. He removed his hat as he approached, looking at the girl closely. "Listen, you look like someone I know, please, please, swing by this tavern towards the edge of town tonight at midnight if only for ten minutes. I just have to ask you some things if you don't mind," Jade says with a smile of disbelief. If this was who he thought it was, the kingdom was saved, if she wasn't, then he could very well die tonight.

Jade just stared at the girl for a moment. Did she know who he was in any way? Did she know where he came from or who his parents were or why he was having a pretty horrible life so far? He doubted it, but he really hoped she did, even if it wasn't very probable.

"Midnight my friend, lest I must seek you out. May we someday meet again should you choose to avoid me my dead," Jade says with a smile as he gives a slight bow in a more polite way than respect or anything, before dodging another soldier to throw over his shoulder and into a nearby fountain.

"You men must realize, running at me doesn't do anything, it is only when you know how to fight do you have a chance of actually doing any damage whatsoever to my ego, ideals, or body," Jade says as if putting the soldiers who couldn't match Jade with their rather pathetically basic fighting styles.

"Jade!" the familiar voice of the head guard rings out. Jade smiles at him with a smile some people would describe as a lunatics smile. "Eduardo, hello, I'm sorry, but I'm off to go have a drink, let's fight another day when you have more men and might be a challenge," Jade says waving in a friendly way, "Until then my doomed friend whom I hate."

Jade turns to walk off, the square no longer being filled with guards searching for The Liberation Front or the royals. The head of guards moves to charge forward though Jade already is gone, dissapearing through the sense crowd, almost as if he was never even there...

~Another day sneaking out with Lisia from the rather cramp house. It was rather normal now and Lucia knew it, and her mother Sonia eventually found out that Lucia and Lisia had snuck out of the house and into the town. Though she never told Lisia that her mother found out. Yet today in the square Lisia was waiting for Lucia to bring her some coffee and thus she did. Having to make the coffee herself at a little shoppe. Humming a little tune that she learnt from her mother when she was younger. Smiling Lucia made the coffee and proceeded back to where Lisia was.

~Moving along with the cup of coffee, Lucia evaded the people in the square all she could, a few bumps and all from some and she was unwavering in giving Lisia her coffee, which she had made on her own using her Majik to make, because, you know she doesn't really mind doing something like that. Yet something caught her off guard which knocked her nearly off her feet, a bunch of fleeing people. Though one person had ran straight into her and took the little cup out of her hands and put it's contents onto her shirt and body, Why did I have to make this coffee so HOT?! she thought as she took out her brush and drew the symbol for her control over water and pointed her brush at the coffee scalding the left part of her chest removing the coffee and placing it in the cup. She picked up the cup and soon rushed to the square in worry.

~As she reached the square, Lucia noticed several things, and Several people, Lisia in her cloak standing near where she was earlier, on assumption she was about as confused as Lucia, then there was a man whom she saw for a second before he disappeared into the crowd along with about fifteen others, and several guards on the ground and the chief of the guard standing in the square, Lucia hastily approached Lis, having a bad feeling about the princess being found by the guard,

"Lis! Are you alright?" she asked as she got within hearing range of Lis and where Eduardo wouldn't hear, ready to move at a moment's notice. Since she was about as confused as most of the rest of the civilians in the area.
