__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description
Corvul might come from an ancient line of Sionhai warriors, but he doesn't look the part at all; at 5'5" with a slender, althetic build, one is hard pressed to imagine him as the ass-kicking soldier he once was. His orange-brown fur is typical of his kind, as is the black fur of his feet and hands. If there is one thing that stands out, it's the deep green colouration of his eyes. Kind of a cute face, but he's not gonna brag.

Clothing for Corvul doesn't vary much from day to day; a pair of black or brown slacks with a beige or white button up are a given, with a matching vest and neatly tied cravat. Leather or seude shoes make up another staple of his wardrobe, and he almost never leaves home without his five shot revolver on his belt. To complete his everyday attire, Corvul dons a nez-pince.

Personality
Corvul is a quiet fellow and prefers his books and the quiet of his study rather than the boisterous chatter of the local bar. Upon first meeting him, he might seem like an iceberg, cold and impenetrable to all emotion or feeling; his years in the Aedolian military haven't quite worn off yet, and he still sleeps with a gun under his pillow. Sarcasm is his default response to almost any question that has an obvious answer, and he makes no effort to feel sorry for it.

However, once you befriend him, Corvul can be an amiable fellow and eventually warms up enough to give a friendly smile every now and again. While he remains quiet and somewhat distant, he does open up a little more about himself and drops the sarcasm when his friends need his help and comfort.

Magic/Abilities
Umbramancy With this psychic ability inherited from generations past, Corvul is able to manipulate the shadows around him. Examples of usage include:
  • Controlling size, shape and intensity of shadows
  • Absorbing shadows*
  • Using shadows as a means of teleportation
  • Making shadow "clones"
  • Creating barriers of shadow
However, due to the fact that his powers use his mental energy, Corvul refrains from using his more powerful abilities unless it is necessary, as some of the side effects of overuse of his powers include, but are not limited to: nausea, headaches, vertigo, and unconsciousness in extreme cases. In addition, his powers are negated by light-based magics and vice versa; if he were to fight a wielder of light with his powers alone, they would be stuck in a perpetual stalemate.

Relationships
Olivia Tulbert - Almost everyone in town, Olivia's parents included, knows that Corvul has a crush on this sweet young doe. He's just not ready to admit it yet.

History
Ask anyone around town about Corvul, and they'll say that he's been in town for a few years and runs the small general store in the town centre. That's really all anyone knows about the guy's past aside from that he was an immigrant from Aedolis. However, there is a darker side to the sotre clerk calling himself "Corvul Renthri".

Born Ravat Corillé on into one of the lowest castes in Aedolian society, the young fox was immediately drafted into the military at age sixteen when he was discovered that he was a psychic. At the time, his abilities were not considered powerful enough for him to be put into the Pilot program, so he was assigned to a special unit for taking down political dissenters after he finished basic training. Ravat's job specifically was destroying any contraband materials found, be it books, illicit drugs or weapons. And, for a couple years, he enjoyed it.

About the time he was to turn 21, Ravat began secretly reading the books he was supposed to destroy. When he realised just how messed up Aedolis' government and society were, he decided to high tail it out of there. However, there was one giant problem with his plan: deserting was treason. Deciding that simply walking out of Aedolis was simply too mundane and easy, Ravat went with the alternative option: faking his death. And the last mission he went on with his squad provided just the cover-up. A particularly dangerous group had been spreading anti-government propoganda through the lowest castes of the Aedolian cities, and came into possesion of contrband weapons, which they used quite liberally against military targets. After a few minutes of fighting these guys, Ravat decided to go for it and stepped out into the firefight, taking a few bullets to the chest and one to the head... Only it wasn't him, but a shadow clone he had created earlier that morning. Ravat himself was already sprinting across the wastelands to Teinar eith the clothes on his back and some food and water for a few days.

Upon reaching Teinar, the first thing Ravat did was reinvent himself. Cutting out the microchip in his arm that marked him as an Aedolian citizen, he then assumed the identity of Corvul Renthri, taking the names from a couple minor historical figures of the distant past. After a few months in Teinar, the newly dubbed Corvul decided to leave again, after hearing a few rumours circulating about him and his little sprint across the wasteland. Catching the next ship he could that went off-world, he landed in Edanith and officially immigrated and became a citizen of the planet after a few years. At the age of 24, after working as a banker teller, Corvul decided for a change in scenery and moved out to the frontier, eventually finding the cozy little town of Deep Wells, which he now calls home.
