	AMITYVILLE ACADEMY ENROLLMENT FORM Name: Brand Xander Limone Alaric Idris Ravensdale [[His family and his people name young Psychonauts as a group, and they believe that the number six holds particular significance. The six names of his power, and he may let no one have all of his names]] Nicknames: He just goes by Brand. At home, his family called him Clover, or little Clover because of his tattoo. It was a joke about luck. Gender: Male Age: 17 Faction: Reaper Race: Psychonaut :: Psychonautics employs hallucinogens, lucid dreaming, hypnosis, sensory deprivation, smoke inhalation, sleep deprivation, etc.. to gain insight on the condition of the soul and the construction of matter. Natural Ability: Distortion :: By going into one of his psychonautic trances, Brand can rearrange an object's existence so that it becomes something else. In Y1, he cannot do it to objects any larger than a soccer ball. Anything larger than that, up to the size of a bag, will simply revert to its original form moments later. Anything larger than a bag will not respond at all, it is too much for his young mind to distort. Objects must have a similar quality to become something else: density, shape, weight, taste, smell, height, etc. He can never use it on living things. Brand likes to describe it as he is just gently suggesting to an object that it is confused, and rearranging it into what it should be. Personality: [ Positive + Traits ] xxxxxCharismatic: After a lifetime of being in a very vocal, performative family, Brand cannot help but chat with anyone he meets in a pretty sincere way. He's happy to shake hands, listen to what others really mean when they're talking, and just generally be charming. It probably has a lot to do with his Psychonaut trance-state, in which he explores the meaning of souls, but regardless it has translated into a pretty brilliantly friendly personality. He thrives in group environments like parties, and loves being surrounded-- sensory overload doesn't get to him at all! xxxxxDetermined: With a very practice-makes-perfect (and I love being perfect) attitude, Brand isn't afraid to fail and he isn't about to give up. He's not good with his knives for nothing; he has practiced on some of the family's very best antiques! Antique wheels of fortune, antique stuffed bears, antique furniture-- mostly very unconventional, some not. One way or another, Brand doesn't give up easily. [ Neutral o Traits ] xxxxxShow-pony: He loves attention, and he loves being pretty, and he loves putting on a show. For better or worse, Brand does everything he can with a little bit of flair. It would be great, if it was appropriate and not over the top, sure. Sometimes it is absolutely both of those things. Sometimes it's exactly what the situation calls for! ... he just can't always tell the difference. [Negative - Traits ] xxxxxEscapist: As a psychonaut, Brand's already restless attitude has been given wings to fly the coop-- he's constantly experimenting with his state of consciousness, and often gets really absorbed in substances, habits, hobbies, other individuals-- trying to get him to stay in reality is really hard when he doesn't like whatever reality it is or he doesn't really think yours is necessarily the right one! It can make him totally out of touch with deadlines, relationships and even conversations if he's not in a good mood. xxxxxDomineering: "I'm sure your way is really, really good! But let's try mine, okay~?" When it comes down to it, Brand is pretty pushy about his opinions, and whatever it will take to make sure he is comfortable and he is happy. It probably has a lot to do with the number of siblings, the way his community all walked in and out of each other's places all the time, and how he was pretty much never alone-- Brand feels it is completely necessary to assert his will over others. It can be really stifling to deal with someone who's so dead set on their own way. Not even his charisma can make up for this, all the time-- eventually it stops being cute, and it's probably just disheartening. The doubly-sad part is that Brand loves working in a team, and he feels super uncomfortable alone, so driving others away is never his goal! Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? xxxx Brand comes from a prestigious line of performers, tinkers, pedlars and stark raving lunatics. He has grown up in his family's home. Like the example in Reaper lore, he did in fact live inside a multi-level victorian home, connected to those of his kind internally so that they could all walk from one house to the other. As a result, there were many teatimes during any given day. The ground level, given it was adjoined in every house to another house, was where he was used to receiving guests. There were three other levels. He lived on one of the other floors, but as he grew older his family 1) finally realized he was actually aging, and took an interest in his education and 2) was very annoyed he kept turning all the perfectly reasonable chocolate biscuits into very unreasonable jam ones. And so he was shipped off, to get an education and annoy someone else. He has a lot of siblings, so they were pretty happy to get his room. He did, before he left, make sure to fill it with sticky jam as either a bad joke or a really ineffective retaliatory gesture. FEAR Ability: "Psychic Surgery" :: The Chill :: Despite his parents' hopes and dreams that he'd use his psionics to throw his weapons with FEAR-laced precision, every time he enters a psychonautic trance with his FEAR, as a Y1 he always gets an urge to rearrange things to the shape he thinks they should be in. Holding one of his knives in his hand, he uses psychic surgery to target someone at a distance and heal them. He needs to be in an successful trance to do so. Physical Description: Eye Colour: Teal Hair Colour/Style: A shade between pink and purple; and short, a little unruly. Skin Colour: Slightly tan. Clothing Style/Colours: See ref; dresses in his carnival attire if he's going out, often in bright colours and patterns. A performer at heart. He's always dressed nicely, and he owns a lot of different black boots. Extra: So. Many. Piercings. And his clover/teardrop type tattoo! References: His official art !
