Looks

Nickolas' - or Nick, as he's more commonly known as - face-claim is Mark Pellegrino. He got short styled, dirty blond hair and bright blue eyes.

The color of his magic has a red tint to it. When he uses his abilities, his irises glow up a fiery red as well. (I COULDN'T RESIST!! XD)

Attire

Nick's work clothing consists out of suits. He doesn't always wears a tie, but when he does, he often wears it wrong - he doesn't knows how to tie it.

He doesn't often wears 'casual' clothes, but when he does, it's most often a simply shirt with a hoodie thrown over it.

His pet/familiar
Name - Dean
Species - Sciurus carolinensis (Eastern gray squirrel)
Age - 200-something
Looks -

About Dean - One day, Nick found an abandoned and wounded baby squirrel. Feeling bad for the poor animal, Nick took the squirrel with him and patched it up. He ended up becoming friends with the squirrel, who he named Dean, and eventually, Dean ended up becoming his familiar. Just like Nick, Dean is very fond of pie as well and the squirrel loves sitting on Nick's shoulder. Because of him being a witch's familiar, Dean is very intelligent and even understands human speech, even though he cannot speak. Dean has also been made immortal with Nick's magic and Nick tells the squirrel everything. Dean generally acts as some kind of guide to Nick, helping him deal with his hallucinations and making a difference between which is real and fake.

Background
One day, a really long time ago, there lived an old family of powerful witches. And they were happy. The children played together, the mother loved them with all her heart, and the father watched over them.

Until one day...

The people of the village they lived in saw one of the children use magic. Their secret was discovered. That very night, the villagers set out with pitchforks and torches in the cover the darkness provided. While the family of witches was sleeping, they burned down their house. The family of witches died; choking, and crying, and left to beg for a mercy they would never receive.

The only one who survived was a young boy, who barely had reached puberty by then. The boy, by the name of Nickolas, had survived because he happened to be in the woods. He had a fight with his family and he had run away from home.

It was a cold, moonless winter night and the lands were covered in a blanket of a brilliant white. The wind was harsh and the night was long, the only light came from an odd glow on the horizon. Breath puffing out in clouds, and cheeks red from the cold, Nick had run back home when he noticed that the glow of light was in the direction of his home - and it was still too early for sunrise.

Branches scraped his knees open as lines of blood streamed down and tears streamed down his face as fear gripped around his heart and took a hold of him.

Finally, he reached the top of a hill and he looked down at his home. Or what remained of it at least. Ashes got carried into the air as smoke curled up towards the dark sky and flames licked the remains of the building he had called 'home' for his entire life.

He had fallen down on his knees in despair. He had gripped his head, tugged harshly on his hair, and he cried freely. He didn't care who could hear him, he let it all out; all his pain, and anger, and frustration, and despair, and hopelessness he felt. All those emotions came out in a single, feral cry, which no human being should be able to utter. It was the scream of somebody who had lost everything and who didn't saw any hope.

The demons from within rose. They taunted him, telling him in their smooth whispering voices that it was his own fault, that if he had been there he might have been able to do something. Anything. And the voices would never leave, they would always be there, a constant reminder of his failure and fears.

Now homeless and all alone, Nick had been forced to wander the world... never belonging anywhere, never being able to call another place home.

Having nobody to talk to, insanity took a hold of him, burning through his veins like a deadly poison and making him see things which weren't really there. His other side, his alter ego, awoke as well... and it wasn't going anywhere.

Yet perhaps, the thing he had always regretted the most, was never being able to say "I am sorry," to his family before they had died. His last words to them had been, "I hate you! I wish you were all dead!" And then he had stormed out of the house and into the woods. He would never be able to move on from this, or forgive himself for that matter.

Currently
Many years later and now a fully fledged witch, and with his loyal companion, Dean, by his side, Nick had found a school. A school for special people. He had gotten a bit better from his childhood trauma, yet the fear was still there, nor would the voices ever go away.

He got a job at the school as a guard, that way he would be able to protect the children from hunters and other advancing evil.

Just so that nobody would have to experience what he had to go through.

Characteristics
Nick's insanity is perhaps his most unique and noticeable trait, he has hallucinations and hears voices in his head. But he tries to be a helpful person to others though. Another noticeable trait is the squirrel, Dean, who is always found seated on his shoulder.

Personality
Nick is in fact in many ways a tragic figure, as the people he loved the most have left him and he never quite managed to find his place in the world. And no matter how much he tries to do his best, it never seems to be enough.

He has had voices in his head for so long, that he cannot even remember anymore what it was like to not have them. The voices are always there; in the early hours of the morning, in the middle of the day, and in the latest hours of the night, even in his dreams the voices never leave him. Nick also suffers from hallucinations, seeing his worst nightmares become a reality and being forced to relive it again and again... and again. Because of the voices and hallucinations, he can come across as easily distracted to others, but truth to be told, his own mental instability gets the best of him at those times.

Even though he isn't sad... but he isn't exactly happy either. He just feels so empty and stuck between all those emotions most of the time. He always tries to push others away from getting too close, not wanting them to see how broken he truly is... yet he always ends up hating them for leaving.

His 'main' hallucination
Nick suffers from many kinds of hallucination in different forms and shapes, yet there is one who sticks out more than the others. This hallucination is an exact copy of Nick himself; having the exact same looks and voice as he does. This hallucination goes by the name of Lucifer and he's always there. Nick cannot get rid of him in any way and Lucifer is there every second of the day. Lucifer spends most of his time trying to get Nick's attention and to work on his nerves - which he excels at - and he occasionally refers to himself as Nick's 'alter ego', calling himself Nick's true self. Yet Lucifer does appears to care about Nick to some degree, even occasionally helping him.

Likes
Nick is very fond of Dean and he would take a bullet for the squirrel. He also really enjoys pie, apple pie especially, and helping others in any way to get his mind off certain things.

Dislikes
Nick doesn't likes anyone harming Dean in any way. He doesn't likes it when anyone takes even a single bite out of his pie. For oblivious reasons, he doesn't likes fire, occasionally, it still paralyses him in fear.

Abilities
Advanced Magic
As a witch, Nick is capable of wielding magic and using it to cast a wide diversity of spells.

Potion Making
Nick can make potions. This isn't his greatest skill though, it's rather basic.

Squirrel Telepathy
Nick can understand his squirrel, Dean, and is strongly convinced that he can speak the language of the squirrels.

Weaknesses
Nuts
Nick has a serious nut allergy.

Witch Killing Bullets
This should be self-explanatory.

Own Mental Instability
His own insanity often works against him.
