~Appearance~
User Image
Full Name:
Seth Glenn
Alias/Famous Name:
Prince of Thieves
Age:
15
Gender:
Male
Seishou Affinity:
Sapling
A Seishou affinity that has yet to fully develop past its beginning stages. Due to a lack of experience, it's extremely weak, but seeks to grow through the user's experiences.
Race:
Human (Sairoki)
Weapon(s) of Choice:
Currently, Seth's only gear is a pocket knife. He never uses it in battle, though, prefering to use it as a tool with a wide variety of uses.
Keepsake:
Tome of Thieves
Keepsake Grade:
D
Keepsake Effect:
Records the owner's memories and thoughts along its blank pages, growing in strength as it goes. Because of it being used by Seth's father in the past, it has a bit of residual memory that helps in aquiring physical feats instead of magical prowess. As time goes, what was stored in the book before will begin to mix with Seth's personal discoveries, providing a bit of direction to what he may attempt to learn in the future.

~Personal Background~

Height:
6'0"
Weight:
130, due to many years without sufficient food.
Personality:
Of the Glenn siblings, Seth is known for being the more adventurous and knuckle-headed by far. His anger sets off much faster, and he'll react more visibly than Naomi, but there is almost no chance that he'll keep secrets from you. Because of his need to grow, Seth is also always trying out something new and exciting, whether it is stupid or productive, making him somewhat accident-prone, but he has the mental fortitude to keep moving regardless. On top of this, Seth follows his rules to a fault. If he decides something, he can be very stubborn, with little regard to the consequences
Physical Build:
Thin, recovering from being close to starvation.
Place of Origin:
Oozark Villiage
Family:
Naomi Glenn

Guild:
N/A
Guild Tattoo:
N/A
Affiliation:
Has connections with the local thieve's guild fences, though he doesn't do anything more than sell them items that other shops wouldn't consider taking.

Bio/History:
"The King of Thieves", that was his hero. His father, a figure of Robin Hood-esque stature, adored by the poor folk that the Glenn family lived near. For his entire childhood, Seth aspired to be like his dad, learning the ways of the thief and following a few basic guidelines:
1. Only take what can be spared.
2. Take not a life, for it is not yours to steal.
3. Only when you are at risk to lose it all can you take in equal measure.

For a while, Seth took these to heart and prepared for the day he too would enter the "family trade." This all stopped around age 12, however, when that shining example of the perfect bandit passed away. From all the things that could have happened, a magic-related injury from the past returned to claim the King of Thieves, leaving Seth to continue down the road on his own.
According to his interpretation of the three rules, Seth only steals from the rich, and only attempts something when he knows it won't result in him being seen. Even when caught, which is rare given his tendency to simply skip jobs that may end badly, Seth chooses to flee, in order to avoid taking life. This often caused him to go without success and without reward, but Seth showed his determination to follow his rules regardless of a few lost meals in the way. The third rule never seemed to surface, though, even with the many different ways of reading the code. With or without that last line, Seth plans to follow in the footsteps of his father, and even with Naomi against his plans to try to change their lives, nothing can halt the wheels of fate from bringing this young man into the world his father before him had conquered.

~Magic~
None. It dosn't look like he'll obtain any, either, given how slim his attention span can be. Seth believes that men shouldn't rely on magic to achieve what their arms can already accomplish.

~Special Abilities~
Scan- After witnessing something that creates a lasting impression, the memory is imprinted on the Book of Thieves, aiding in the development of later skills. Though it only records by what Seth sees and how he understands it, the background of the previous owners can sometimes help fill in holes in the information gained through Scan.
Omnitool- Using a specialized knife, Seth can preform a host of useful actions, from scaling walls to picking simple locks. Because of the knife's use as a multitool, Seth tries not to use it in battle.

~Extra~
Seth's true talent has yet to be realized. With years of study and application, his life could turn in any direction, or halt completely.

~Appearance~
User Image
Full Name:
Naomi Glenn
Alias/Famous Name:
Desert Rose
Age:
17
Gender:
Female
Seishou Affinity:
In Bloom
A Seishou affinity that has yet to fully develop past its beginning stages. Due to a lack of experience, the Seishou barely shows, but a good amount of pratice may bring about a beautiful result.
Race:
Human (Sairoki)
Weapon(s) of Choice:
Naomi is a pacifist, and just about any weapon in her hands would be completely useless.
Keepsake:
Ruby Rose
Keepsake Grade:
C
Keepsake Effect:
This keepsake is a complete mystery to Naomi. The fact that it can draw out extra energy from the body's reserves is unknown to her, as it was simply a treasure that the King of Thieves picked up for his daughter. The beautiful ring is able to allow the user to go past their regular limit in how much power they burn at a small danger to themselves. Due to failsafes written in after years of use, however, it will cause the user to go into a hybernation-like state to recover the energy used if they overuse its effect.

~Personal Background~

Height:
5'6"
Weight:
110, due to many years without sufficient food.
Personality:
Completely unlike her brother, Naomi is very level-headed and introverted, though her mothering nature shows through more than anything else. Through the many connections that their father established, Naomi had been able to slowly overcome her shyness and become more confident with the support of many caring individuals. Though she seems more interested in books than people, Naomi is able to extend her best side to people regardless of her feelings, sheilding all around her from the thorns that poverty cultivated in her life.
Physical Build:
Thin, though somewhat developed in recent years as they can afford to eat.
Place of Origin:
Oozark Villiage
Family:
Seth Glenn

Guild:
N/A
Guild Tattoo:
N/A
Affiliation:
Working for various businesses in town, so she has plenty of connections to those around her.
Worked in a library and a clinic for one year each, and is starting to work at a bar, since the pay is much better.

Bio/History:
After the lone parent of the Glenn siblings died, Naomi and Seth were left to fend for themselves. The community aided them greatly, though, providing money and work whenever possible, though Naomi always remained adamant on working to support themselves. As it turns out, she actually enjoyed the various places where old friends could spare work, and the skills picked up ended up really supporting her.
For the first year, she worked in a relative's library, secretly reading the books whenever possible until she could recite her favorites by heart. It didn't pay well, though, so she was forced to move on to work at an old friend's clinic, assisting in whatever didn't require years of training to do. Sadly, though, it wasn't enough to secure a job, and she tried for one more job at a local bar owned by a man who had apparently known their father very well.
From that time, Naomi's old, quiet self was forced to blossom into a confident young woman, meeting many people and forming the stories she loved so much whenever time permitted. Still early on in her years, she began to earn a name as the Desert Rose of the cantina, providing the flower so distinct from the thorns that surround it. The owner of the bar seems to really enjoy this title, and has begun to push it whenever he can manage. For now, Naomi is content with her life, and is able to give that small bit of stability to balance out her dreamer of a brother.

~Magic~
None, though a combination of photographic memory and natural intelligence gives her high potential to learn.

~Special Abilities~
Has an amazing memory from years of reading, following complex orders in a clinic, and having to remember constantly-changing orders in the bar.

~Extra~
Over time, the right companions may tranform Naomi's magical talent to be something extremely useful, or something excessive and impractical. At the start of the rp, she has almost no extra skills to speak of.
