Xander

"Yes, I died because of sex, now move along"

Name: Xander Anderson

Age: 789

Gender: Male

Species: Ghost, A Lost Soul

Rank: Beta's Assistant

Appearance:

Once a handsome, young devil, Xander lost it all after wolves tore his human body apart. At last, Liv could get her hands on his soul and he was forced to become a servant of sorts. With his body lost, he is now only a soul, a lingering spirit kept around by the power of the Second Spectre. His appearance is similar to the one he had moments before his death. His form remembered the clothes and created a dark version of them, but they are no more real than his actual body. The only real physical part of his body is the skull that glows with a blue light. The wounds that dotted his body before death are now represented by misty gaps in his body. Where one should expect his stomach to be is a black cloud. His shoulder is similar, with the dark wisps of smoke occasionally escaping and disappearing into the air. It is not hard to follow him as he will often leave a short trail of the smoke behind him.

Personality: After centuries, his mortal consciousness adjusted to the reality of immortality without a physical body. His youthful energy faded and gave way to mind set that leads him through a daily routine dictated by Liv. At first he actually attempted to rebel, but now he is a simple servant with a submissive mind set. Otherwise his personality mostly faded into nothing. His dark humour did pass on though and will at times shine through. He remains serious and mostly lacking in emotion, thus most will find him boring, but capable of doing whatever task is expected of him.

Date of Birth: 21st of July

History: Xander led an average life in his mortal existence, that soon revolved about petty thievery and a fast lifestyle. With no family, or friends, he lived a lonely life that he found himself content with due to the thrill of his work. What he saw as a great advantage during his life, was his luck, something he definitely needed as a thief. Whenever around those of similar status and occupation, he would often boast of his feats where he would escape difficult situations with his wit and a handful of luck. He was left blissfully unaware of how angered one Spectre became with these little victories and soon he was approached by a peculiar young female that seemed quite oblivious of mortal life. They drank the night away. In the morning she left him and he moved on with his life.

Ironically, it appeared that the touch of the Spectre drained his luck as within a day or so he found himself lost in a forest at night. A pack of wolves tore him to shreds. Whoops.

Liv collected his soul, but chose to keep him alive as a sort of punishment, as well  as a way to keep herself entertained in her mundane life. She saw the effect immortality had on him, but she ignored it and soon he became a useful servant, often becoming the messenger between Death and the Second Spectre. Death found a slight use in him too, so the ghost remains in service of the Second Spectre for now.

Powers:

~ Projection of Other Souls - Almost as if fitting to his heritage as a thief, Xander can use a soul already captured by Liv and project it through him. It  grants him powers according to each one, but only one can be active at once and will remain so for 10 minutes (except in the case of Mortality)

     - Healing - The healing is mostly through the transfer of energy, allowing the creature he uses it on to regain a large portion of their strength, if not all of it. If it is not enough, he can heal minor lacerations and bruises.

      - Magic - He is able to use minor magical abilities, such as summoning a small fireball, a minor bolt of lightning or a few icicles. The unholy and dark abilities are ever so slightly more effective, but they still do no go beyond instantly withering a plant or creating binds of shadows.

       - Mortality - While it grants no powers, it allows him to form a skeleton under his clothes to physically exist for about 5 minutes. He gains enhanced strength, speed and durability due to this, but it is still only a minor improvement over an average human.

~ Minor Telepathy - He can lift objects very close to him, within a radius of a meter. He often uses it only to hold the notebook he has with him at all times. He can rarely lift large objects, except for times when he focuses on them completely and is directly beside them.

Skills:

~ Thievery - In his mortal life, he was quick an effective thief, although he did no large break-ins. At times, he would steal something like a large gem from a lord, but that only happened 3 times in his lifetime. He knows the techniques and the ways of a thief, but cannot use them without a physical form.

~ Coming up With Things - Honestly, he's just good at coming up with things on the spot due to his experience of having to excuse Liv various times, even though in the present he doesn't even bother to be convincing. After all, what Liv does instead of working is very obvious to everyone

Abilities:

~ Hovering - As a ghost, Xander does not walk, simply hovers. 'nough said.

~ A non-physical form ~ Due to a lack of a physical body (Unless he projects a soul to grant him one), Xander lingers as a spirit. He can touch nothing physical and in turn, nothing physical can harm him. He can easily float through walls and ceilings, trees and water. Theoretically, he could go anywhere if he was not limited by Liv's control. Unfortunately, while he is pretty much unable to get hurt by anything physical, he is left vulnerable to magical and energy based attacks. Some enchanted weapons may also harm him.

Other:

~ A black notebook - Acts as his way of keeping track of his tasks. It is also enchanted to act as a container for 10 souls at once that he may use for his ability of Projecting Souls. The time of it is decreased then, with 8 minutes for the Healing and Magic, and 3 minutes for Mortality. The notebook is with him at all times though, thanks to his ability of Telekinesis.

~ His skull - Similar to the hunters that Liv can summon, Xander was brought to existence based on his skull what in turn makes it the only really physical part of his body. Well, in the terms that if he were to be somehow destroyed, only the skull would be left behind.
