Quentin Coldwater
The Magicians
— BASICS —
— FIRST IMPRESSIONS —

APPEARANCE 5'8''. Built like a hobbit. Habitual shoulder hunch. Always fidgeting. Talks with his hands. Wears his hair in a classic bisexual bob. Permanent puppy-dog eyes. Can't sit in a chair correctly to save his life.
CLOTHING Simple, comfortable neutrals. Unremarkable fashion sense. You will not remember what he was wearing once you look away.
DEMEANOR Awkward, fidgety, uncomfortable in his own skin. Wears his emotions - which tend to swing between dour and frenetic - on his sleeve. Always seems like he's unsure if he's supposed to be here, but he's passionate in his convictions and gives a damn good hero speech.
AURAL Video clip #1 and #2. There's a bit of a strange meter to his voice, a stopping and starting, like he's still thinking and tacking his words together while he says them.
OLFACTORY A little like sweat, a little like the plain soap he absolutely washes his hair with like a heathen.
— SKILLS —
This is where you can put the skills/powers/magic your character might have before entering the game!
MAGIC Quentin is a magician, which is fairly comparable to any other magic-using demographic from a fantasy canon. He has the innate ability to channel ambient magical energy with the use of spells, which are directed with complex hand gestures and precise thought rather than wands and words. Magicians can accomplish incredibly powerful tasks, such as lethal strikes in battle or manipulation of time, but the amount of power and skill required for most major magic is beyond a lone practicer at Quentin's level. With a few brief exceptions (in a moment of extreme turmoil he manages to create a small black hole), Quentin's magical aptitude is focused on smaller-scale object manipulation. He can't kill you but he can pull off a hell of a card trick and then fix your broken glasses.
SLEIGHT OF HAND Quentin has been practicing magic tricks since long before he knew magic was real, and he's damn good at them. This also means that he's pretty good at other tasks that involve the same skill set, like pickpocketing (for a good cause, of course) or manipulating people's focus.
CARD GAMES Magic tricks aren't the only area where Quentin excels with a deck of cards. He knows his way around a stack backwards and front and has a good head for quick logic, which makes him pretty good even without the help of his magic.
