Full Name: Arthur Edward Waite
Nickname(s): Art. He was called "Arthwaite" by Aleister Crowley in the novel Moonchild.
Race: Reaper (human)
Age: Born October 2, 1857

Personality: Arthur is, in a word, focused. Oh, he's witty and charming and loyal, but more than anything else he focuses on a task and remains focused until it is complete.

Element: Akasha. His scythe is a spectral thing, seemingly made of silvery mists.

Abilities: Arthur Waite manipulates a force he has variously referred to as 'akasha' and 'quintessence', the fifth of the classical elements. This gives him vast control over the forces of the higher planes (the Etherial and the lower and upper Astral). His attacks and defenses are made on these upper levels of reality, manifesting in the physical world as the effects of misfortune and entropy - attacks miss, weapons misfire, vehicles breakdown, and people suffer heart attacks or aneurysms.

His powers are not limited to attack and defense, however. He can use them to heal both physical and mental illnesses, and to perceive the possible future by observing the Astral currents. Most commonly, he makes use of his original tarot deck for this purpose.

Physical description:
AE+Waite+as+a+young+man.jpg

Although the 'outer world' believes Arthur Waite lived a normal human lifespan and died on the 19th of May in 1942, Arthur Waite the Reaper merely faked his death and used his powers to reverse the physical appearance of aging. He is a tall man, with jet black hair and piercing blue eyes, favoring black or navy suits and his St. Charles College tie when he is teaching or going about his daily routine. When called into the field he dresses for the hunt, wearing khaki and boots, and an overcoat.

History: Art is the illegitimate child of US Army Captain Charles Waite and Emma Lovell. His father died when he was two years old, and he was raised in England. He was educated at St. Charles' College, a small private school in North London, and by his father.

Emma Lovell didn't know it, but Captain Waite was a Reaper, capable of manipulating sound. He was the one that found his son first, when Art began developing his own abilities, and taught his boy the rudiments of how to survive in the alien world he'd become a part of. It was also Captain Waite that led Art to the Reapers, and the dead man's proudest moment was when his own son helped him cross through the Veil.

As a result of his own exotic powers, as well as the lengthy association with his dead father and the death of his sister Frederika, Art developed a strong and lasting interest in philosophy and mysticism. He joined the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in 1891, the Freemasons in 1901, and the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia in 1902, seeking a greater understanding of the Mystery cloaked by the Name of God. It was during his association with the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn that he met and made an enemy of Aleister Crowley (the self-styled "Great Beast"), with the two exchanging vicious and bitter letters in various journals (and, some believe, even dueling magically).

Art also founded two mystical orders of his own, the Independent and Rectified Order R. R. et A. C. and he Fellowship of the Rosy Cross. Neither lasted, something that could also be said of his two marriages - first to Ada Lakeman and second to Mary Schofield. The demands of his life as a Reaper and his interest in mysticism and the occult crippled both relationships. He had one daughter from his first marriage, Sybil Waite, a charming and utterly human girl.

After faking his death in 1942, Art withdrew fully into Reaper society, spending the 40s through the 60s laying spirits to rest and hunting Serpentiles. In 1967 he was offered a Professorship at the Styx Reaper Academy, teaching ethics and metaphysical theory. He still returns to the field from time to time, however, unwilling to grow "rusty" sitting behind a desk.

Nickname(s): Before his Amnesia was known as Corduroy Wind or CW for short now people have started calling him Corduroy Wolf due to his somewhat recent contraction of the Lycanthropy Disease

Race: human/Werewolf/Reaper

Age:22

Personality: Prior to his amnesia he was a quite if not somewhat insecure person who did well in academics but showed little desire to excel after his contraction of both amnesia and the disease of lycanthropy he has shown himself to be more head strong confident and competitive though he still seems to hold on to his more antisocial behaviors at times.

History: Prior Thomas Corduroy Skud was the only son of two former Reapers Alysia, and Terry Skud Both whom were killed during his previous education in the reaper program though on separate missions. His mother died during his second year while on a somewhat Top secret mission and his father died a year later during a mission which was thought to be related to his father’s fervent investigation of the details revolving around his wife’s death.

After going through Psychological and physical therapy and some basic training on controlling his lycanthrope tendency’s it was decided that he would re attend Reaper education Program until ether he regained his memories or is able to display skills and knowledge comparable of a reaper graduate.
 
Full Name: Zane Alsanai

Nickname(s): Yokai

Race: Human/Reaper

Age: 15

Personality: Zane is quiet and intelligent as well as a curious young man, which tends to get him in trouble, mostly because he forces it upon himself. When he sees a problem, he can't rest until its fixed and resolved, even if he end up hurt in the process. He has an undying need to protect those close to him even at the cost of his own life due to witnessing the acts of his crime boss father and the belief of his father murdering his mother. Because of this, he is continuously injured, though he has miraculously survived without any major damage to his body, save a large scar down his chest to his waist from an incident as a child. Most of the time it’s just dumb luck, which he graciously praises once he survives.

Zane is quite easy to get along with once someone attempts to reach out to him, making him seem very naïve. This is true in a sense, because even after someone causes harm and proves he has done wrong, he will try to see if they change their ways. This causes consequences which he in turn attempts to correct to no end.

He is often used due to his naïve personality, which can get him into trouble, and has many times had to clear his name from wrongs he had been thought to have caused. Luck seems to always be on his side on these occasions, usually prevailing. Though luck can only take him so far, he believes that it is an actual force in the universe and is a random occurrence to life.

In combat, Zane’s personality takes a slight change. Although he keeps his positive outlook, even smiling when he is in danger, he becomes far less trusting, making sure not to stop fighting unless he is sure he is the victor, or he knows there is no one left to protect and needs to run. He usually tries to avoid fights, but accepts that in this world it is needed to make a change. However, that doesn't stop him from attempting to find peaceful solutions in life.

Element: Lightning

Abilities: Outside his natural Reaper Element of Lightning, Zane also possesses a power inside him that has been known to appear in times of great danger, anger, as well as near death experiences, though only the one who this feeling is directed to sees it manifest. When it starts, people begin to see a mix of green and red energy surrounding Zane's body with what appears to be a demonic presence and haunting figure behind him. So far the only ones to notice this were assassins sent to assassinate Zane for being the heir to the Alsanai Syndicate. Once experienced, the assassins were found in a state of extreme fear, paranoia, and some even committed suicide. Zane is completely unaware of this power and perceives the outcome as actions of his father rather than results of his power.

In truth, this power is an ancient being whose name is the same in every language found to date, the Sentrada. It is an entity composed of the entire worlds negative forces and energies from every race known to exist in and out of the range of Earth. As the unwilling host of this ancient evil, Zane is capable of great feats of power as well as being possessed by the Sentrada, though even as a Reaper his body in its current state is hardly able to withstand the constantly growing energy, and could even be disintegrated by it if let loose. Without training and control of his emotions, Zane could find himself dying a horrible death in moments.

The Sentrada, although ancient, is different with every host. Once its current host dies, the Sentrada also passes away, only for its memories and experiences to be passed to the next one immediately after its death. This makes it a being whose motives are constantly changing, as some wish to immediately end their hosts life, while some wish to survive in them as long as possible.

Physical description: Zane is tall for his age at a height of 6 feet and still growing taller. His body is toned from years of training since childhood forced by his father for when he took position as the next Chairman of the Alsanai Syndicate. The only blemish on his pale skin is a large scar stretching from his right shoulder to the left side of his waist on his torso. His eyes hold the sign of heterochromia, a mutation where one eye is a different color than his second eye, his left eye emerald green and right eye a crimson red. Zane's hair is also another mutation that is carried down his bloodline. From birth, Zane's hair has been colored silver, so much so that in the moonlight it shines from the radiant light. Silver hair is a trait found in every offspring of the Alsanai bloodline, male and female. Zane's hair however is impossible to keep combed down unless held down by an accessory, always coming out in a wild fashion.

On his upper body he wears three layers of clothes: a button-up white shirt kept partially buttoned, a crimson red hoodie, and a black leather jacket with a red crest resembling a wolf's head design on the back. On his lower body he wears plain blue jeans and customized black shoes. The hood of his hoodie is almost always over hos head, as to cover his silver hair, a dead giveaway of his heritage.

History: Zane Alsanai was born to Edward Alsanai, Chairman of the Alsanai Syndicate, and a Mossad agent named Eilana that fell for him during an infiltration/assassination mission she had been conducting. As soon as he was born he was unknowingly and unwillingly made the new host of the most recent Sentrada, which resulted in his heterochromia, though it was merely seen as a simple and normal mutation. From an early age Zane had been taught by both his mother and father in both self-defense, offensive combat, as well as various intellectual lessons based on making sure he grew up intelligent, though the motives of his parents differed for wishing him to be prepared.

While Edward wished his son to fill his footsteps as the heir to the Alsanai Syndicate, his mother wished for him to simply be ready to live a life outside the criminal organization and prepared to be discriminated due to his heritage. As time progressed and Zane had a sister born into his family, named Serra, he began to learn the trade of the criminal underworld. It wasn't until he saw first hand while on a trip with his mother what his father's organization did that he began to push away from it, much to the anger and disappointment of his father. He also became incredibly attached to his sister, not only playing the role of a big brother, but as a better father figure for her as best he could. He also was constantly put under protection as assassins began to appear to eliminate him, only to somehow end up catatonic, suicidal, or in an insane asylum.

At the age of 12, Zane walked into his fathers office to see his mother dead on the floor with a bullet hole through the heart. Shocked and traumatized, he was later informed that his father had placed a hit on his mother out of fear she was finally going to betray him and leave him. Full of anger and despair, Zane's feelings towards his father had turned to a burning desire for vengeance and hatred.

Over the next three years, Zane played bodyguard for his sister while continuing his training, taking his fathers beatings only to strengthen his hatred for the criminal chairman, even fighting back when he turned his abuse towards the younger and more vulnerable Serra.

On his 15th birthday, Zane was attacked by a Serpentile on his way to pick up Serra from her school. A Reaper arrived to the scene in order to save him, only to find the Serpentile fried to ash and Zane, in a corner in fear, surrounded by lightning. Seeing his power was vast but comepletely dangerous to the child, the Reaper got the consent of Edward, who had already known of the Reapers and was actually a financial backer to their facilities, to take Zane to Styx.

Zane said he would go on the condition that Serra be taken cared of by a thrid party rather than his father, as a means of protection. It was agreed and Zane was sent to the school the following day, Serra being transported to the Island as well to be cared for in a family facility.
 
Full Name: Sieglinde Friede
Nickname(s): Siege
Race: Half Human/Half Demon Reaper
Age: 17
Personality: Standoffish, Short tempered, Loyal, Distrusting
Element: Water

Abilities:
Sieglinde has the natural ability to heal others with her water element. She also can conjure water directly from her body.
Sieglinde also has a demon form, however it is sealed away with powerful runes that were placed upon her at birth. The runes are invisible normally, unless her body goes under a significant amount of stress and it is necessary for the runes to weaken in order to allow her demon abilities to save her life. The runes can only be broken by other Reapers.

Physical Appearance:
Sieglinde is 5'7", has sharp teeth/fangs, but otherwise looks like a normal human unless the seals weaken. Should the seals weaken, she starts to take on characteristics of her demon heritage.

History:
Sieglinde spent most of her young life sheltered by her mother, a very frigid and unbalanced woman. As long as she remembered, her mother was always off. She spent most of her days locked inside of her room with toys and anything a kid could really want, but what Sieglinde really wanted was a friend, or even her mothers affection. Unfortunately, the only thing her mother gave her was looks of fear, and presents that were meant to appease the child. Though at the age of ten, Siege took it upon herself to hug her mother. In return, she was thrown into a wall and attacked with anything her mother could get her hands on. A broom, a lamp, and eventually a knife. Her mother managed to slice her throat, and the child lay on the ground, bleeding out.

Then she woke up, completely fine. The police had taken her mother into custody, and she was in the hospital with minor scratches. Despite remembering the pain of her throat being cut, there was no signs of it on her neck. She was discharged and sent to a foster home while her mother went to trial for her actions. The woman was deemed insane and was sent away to a mental hospital for rehabilitation.

It didn't take long for Siege to be adopted, as she really was a good little girl who just wanted love. However, as she got older she became more bitter to her mother who had nearly killed her and her father who she never knew. She didn't know who or what she really was, she just knew she was different. Especially when she was finally enrolled in school and around other children.

Though she didn't realize how different she was, until her 15nth birthday, where she had began to see odd sights. Spirits. Though she didn't mind their company. It was only until days after she saw them did she mind this new gift..because she was hunted down ruthlessly by countless Serpentiles. The only reason why she got away from them was because someone would almost always rescue her, though would never reveal themselves. She started to refer to them as her Guardian Angel, though she promised herself she would not make them come rescue her without her at least putting up a fight. Eventually she discovered that she could fight, and little by little she got better after every loss until she began winning. Siege never even realized what her element was until months after her awakening. Because all she did was punch and kick...which surprisingly worked well against the creatures after her. Sometimes she didn't even have to kill them...they would sense her demonic energy and leave her alone.

Finally, just before her sixteenth birthday she was founded and recruited by another reaper, and she was sent off to the Styx Reaper Academy, where she has been for the passed year. She still occasionally talks to her foster parents, but many of the students avoid her so she just gave up on ever really making any friends.

Though to this day, she doesn't know what she is, or who her father is.

 
Full Name: Elizabeth Mirabelle
Nickname(s): Beth
Race: Human/Reaper
Age: 18
Personality: Elizabeth is by her nature a very introverted person, a person who is a bit of a wallflower. She isn't one to be outgoing or bold or proactive in pretty much anything. She is the type of young woman who prefers to create imaginary worlds in her mind that she can fall back into when she reads, which happens to be her most favorite thing to do. She is very intelligent in a book smarts type way, but has little real world or street experience and thus street smarts as it were.
Element: Earth
Abilities: As the natural ability to control the element of Earth, she can manipulate rocks and sand to her will. She can use this ability for attack, but also to create impromptu defenses. Her ability to control these things are rather weak at least to start off with as she has very little experience controlling this element and the power actually scares the young woman. She is also able to use her natural tactical abilities to help out.
Physical description: Elizabeth
History:

Elizabeth grew up in a small home in a well to do town. The young girl was the daughter of a pair of professors who had high hopes for her. When she was 5 her parents went on a mission trip for their job, and left her alone with a Nanny while they were away. The pair of them never returned home leaving Elizabeth an orphan. She grew up thus alone, from that point to her 15th birthday things continued as she avoided others and the outside world as a whole. Preferring the company of books over people. Over time she read though all the books at home and had to go to the large public library to find new books, which was her second home from then on.

Elizabeth, saw her first spirit on her 15th birthday, after reading a book. The spirit she saw was in the library, it rather freaked her out, but she was able to keep this secret well hidden. As she normally didn't talk to people, she didn't interact with others much. 3 years passed as life went on, nothing came of it till a reaper discovered her talking to an spirit in a library thinking she was alone. She was then recruited to go the Academy where she would be able to understand and control her abilities and understand them better. She was hooked when she heard the Academy had a great library of hundreds of books no one had ever read before from outside of that association. She agreed to join and left for the academy the following day.
