Personal information and social status
Name: Lance Devereaux
Race: Human
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Appearance: Lance is a young man with a slender build, topping out at five feet six inches tall. Lance has blonde hair measuring out at roughly four inches long, usually kept spiked up so it stays out of his eyes. Lance has a fair skin-tone and green eyes, which have a distinctive "spark" in them, particularly when he's in the mood to mess with someone. Lance's face is somewhat angular in appearance, with a well defined chin and cheekbones. As far as distinguishing marks go, Lance possesses a small scar over his left eyelid, approximately half an inch long.
Personality: Lance has been called many things, and almost all of them cannot be repeated in civilized company. He has an independent streak a mile long, and will oftentimes irritate people who try to order him around simply out of spite. Lance is also known for his inability to take things seriously, seeing life as one big game to be played, this often puts him at odds with individuals who are driven by duty or honor, as Lance simply doesn't care about those kinds of things. Indeed, Lance could easily be described as a goofball or a slacker at a glance.
However, despite his easygoing and lazy personality, Lance is incredibly dedicated to helping people who are unable to help themselves, dropping everything to assist someone in need. Lance is also an accomplished pilot, and incredibly quick to adapt and learn new things, this trait has served him well in the past, and will do so now more than ever. At the end of the day, Lance is a man who's main mission is to simply live life to the fullest and have fun doing so, and if he happens to help some people out in the process, then that's even better.
Home Realm: Outsider
Affiliation: United States Air Force (Former), himself
Alignment: Chaotic Good
History: Lance Devereaux was born in Southern California to Mary and Lambert Devereaux. Lance's parents married young, and when he was born his mother was only 20 years old. Life was hard for Lance at first, his parents had to juggle taking care of him with work, and, in his father's case, Medical School. Lambert Devereaux had managed to obtain a scholarship to UC Davis Medical school in Sacramento, leaving Lance's mother Mary to take care of him for the majority of the time. This created tension at times, but in the end it was worth it when Lambert Devereaux obtained a Masters Degree in Human Genetics.
As Lance grew, his family became more and more wealthy, Lambert had discovered a variety of new methods for gene recombination, leading to various new types of medications and vaccines. Despite the family's new found wealth, Lance's parents were still very worldly, and Lance was enrolled in public schooling instead of private academies.
Lance quickly proved to be equal parts star pupil and class clown, grasping new topics rather quickly, but not acting as if his studies were important. He still turned in homework and did the assignments, but his behavior led to many detentions and parent-teacher conferences over the years.
Lance eventually graduated from High-School with above average marks, and decided to enroll in the Air Force, saying that he had "Always wanted to see what it was like to shoot through the air at Mach 2." Lance's experiences in Basic were far more trying than in his school-days, with his antics nearly getting him a dishonorable discharge on one occasion. But, eventually, Lance learned to control his more immature behavior (and to cover his tracks really well when he did act up.) and graduated from basic training.
Lance has since been the pilot of an F-16 "Fighting Falcon", and has flown two tours overseas. Lance is currently slated to test the latest in the USAF's fighter program, the F-35 Lightning II, over the Bermuda Triangle in a war-games exercise to test the plane's maneuverability.
Combat potential
Weapons: Survival Knife: Lance is equipped with a standard issue USAF survival knife, to be used in the event of a pilot bailout, it can be used as a tool as well as a weapon. The knife is approximately 10 inches long, with a 7 inch blade, and deals a low amount of damage per strike.
Armor: Flight Suit: Lance's only form of protection from the elements is his flight suit, it provides little protection from weapons, but it is fire resistant and insulated to trap body heat in the event that a pilot is trapped in a cold area, making it somewhat effective against fire and ice magic. If only long enough for Lance to run away and get to safety.
Enchanted weapons/accessories: Lance has no enchanted weapons or accessories at this time.
Weaknesses: Personality: Lance's personality can grate other individuals, especially those who are authority figures and expect him to do as they ask without question.
Newbie: Lance, quick learner that he is, is still in a completely new world, and will need time to understand concepts and social norms before he can effectively blend in with the population.
Magical potential
Special/Racial Abilities: Parkour: Lance has trained in Parkour since the age of 16, and is incredibly proficient at it, this makes him very good at outrunning a heavily armored opponent, especially in an cites, ruins, or forests, where there are many opportunities for him to take advantage of these skills.
Quick Learner: Lance possesses a keen ability to adapt and learn from either observation or practice, this makes it much easier for him to learn things like how to use a sword or stave effectively, or how to read a language if he has someone to translate the first couple of times.
Magical Affinity: Lance has not learned how to harness mana at this time, as such, he does not know what his affinity is.
Spells Known (_/35sP): Lance does not know how to harness mana, and therefore cannot use spells yet.
Roleplay Example (only required if this is your first character and you haven't RPed here yet)
"GET BACK HERE!" Lance sprinted away from the man chasing after him, said man wielding a very large, very painful looking mace. Lance had been stuck in this crazy-ass world for three days, scrounging up whatever he could find, and he hadn't been caught yet. 'Well, had to break the streak at some point I suppose...'
Lance noticed a stack of crates on the side of the road, no doubt filled with goods bound for market. Lance ran towards the crates and began to hop up them as if they were stairs, jumping up once he reached the top and pulling himself onto a nearby roof. "Try and get me now tubby!" Lance turned and heckled the man below, and nearly caught a fireball to the face as a result. "Sweet baby Jesus!"
Lance turned at ran, leaping from rooftop to rooftop, not stopping until the sun had dipped low in the sky and he was absolutely positive that he had lost his pursuer. The winded human reached into his pocket and pulled out his hard won prize, an apple, a hunk of bread, and some cheese. "Heh, well, nothing like a sandwich and an apple to celebrate not getting clobbered and/or fried."
