Tobias Blackwell (WIP)

-Basics-

Face Claim: Ben Barnes

Name: Tobias Blackwell

Age: 267

Gender: M

Species: Was born a witch, has since been cursed to have a Feline base form, and was forced to become a modified form of Familiar to the Faulkner family to avoid death from a fatal wound

Height: 6'1

Fashion: A bit old-fashioned and more formal than most people. He typically wears a white dress shirt, black pants, and either a black jacket or some kind of embellished vest. He refuses to wear jeans, he hates the way they feel.

Physical Description: In his human form, Tobias is tall and thin, with fair skin and dark hair and eyes. He's definitely more on the lean and agile side, but he's stronger than he appears thanks to multiple centuries worth of magic and combat. He was a soldier, after all!

In his cat form, his hair is still jet black, but his eyes are golden-yellow and almost luminous. He has all his claws and will bite anyone who suggests removing any part of him.


-Personality-

Description: Tobias is smug, but for good reason. He's a centuries-old witch with the ability to shapeshift and boosted magical ability thanks to carrying the essence of his previous witches. He's more than capable of complex spellwork on his own, but he chooses to push his witches to their limits as well, challenging them to grow their skills. He's a surprisingly good teacher when he gets going, although he'll still toss in a snide remark here and there. He cares deeply for Maisie Faulkner and @maria, although he won't tell them so directly.

He's also quite a flirt--he calls female witches 'mistress' even in the modern-day because he enjoys the way it makes people behave. He doesn't take romance seriously, though, because he knows he'll outlive everyone around him. He's just accepted that he'll never settle down, and that the Faulkners are his family now. He's looking forward to the day when Dorian can join him, though, and he can finally have his brother back. He misses him fiercely (although he'd never admit it out loud.)

Habits/Hobbies: preens like a real cat (but does not lick his junk, he has standards), keeps a diary, likes to critique others' outfits, likes to tell people he met George Washington, and the man wasn't that exciting

-Background-
History:

Family/Friends: brother Dorian Blackwell , current witch Maisie Faulkner , god-daughter @maria

Neighborhood: with @maria and Maisie Faulkner

Secret: He has a brother who made a deal with a demon and became a serial killer, when he nearly died during the revolutionary war he cried over leaving his brother, talks a big game but actually hasn't had sex since the 1800s because he prefers to be in a relationship for that
