Tori Vorlan | Fire Magi

victoria vorlan,

I WILL KEEP THE HOPE INSIDE

Tori is a particularly militant Magi, who actively baits and fights with Hunters whenever she gets the chance. She's been lucky so far, that none of them have been able to keep up with her. A child from the streets, Tori does whatever it takes to survive, whether that means stealing from innocent people or fighting for her life. She has been known to take in strays, whether animals or young children, and watch after them until they are able to look after themselves. For a thief, she is very outspoken, a trait which has gotten her into a lot of trouble over the years. She can't sit by if another magi is in trouble, and has been known to help out complete strangers just because she happened to be in the vicinity. Unable to resist an exciting new adventure, Tori has gotten herself in and out of a lot of bad situations, because she stuck her nose where it didn't belong.

Among others, she is a natural leader, despite her size, because she always seems to have a new idea of how to better her situation. However, she doesn't plan ahead very well, and often drags others into trouble because of it. All enthusiasm and little planning, Tori has had to learn how to think on her feet, to keep herself from getting seriously hurt. A determined trouble-maker, she is not well-liked by the humans in her neighborhood, though she is widely admired by the other Magi, who like her daring.

Although she is in her late twenties, Tori looks like she is in her late teens at most, because of her Magi heritage. She is fairly short, only 5'4", but she is very toned and strong for her size, a natural acrobat and athlete. She wears her white hair long, with red bows that keep it out of the way. Although this makes her highly visible, she uses it to her advantage when she is working as a team. Her eyes are blood red, but they glow yellow when she is using her fire magic. Under her clothes, her inhuman nature is a lot more obvious. Her baggy pants hide the white feathers with golden markings that run along her legs, which are also visible along the back side of her neck. She hides these features with her clothes and her thick hair, but her bright hair color and red eyes make it difficult to mistake her for anything but a magi.

Tori has a number of minor scars that she has accumulated from years of living in bad situations, but the most significant is the slashing scar across her shoulder blades, where her foster father tried to remove her feathers in a drunken rage and missed. This scar is hidden beneath her clothes at all times, and she becomes defensive and angry if it is mentioned.



Tori wears a white button down shirt with short sleeves, with baggy red overalls and red and white bows in her hair to match them. Sometimes, she also wears red shoes to match, but sometimes she goes barefoot instead. The white pockets hold her various weapons, usually throwing knives and her lighter, but sometimes other projectiles.

Victoria Vorlan was born in a Magi prison in Felici, to an inmate named Sephora Vorlan. Tori doesn't know a lot about her, because she was immediately put into foster care when she was born. The only reason she knows even that much is that she found it on some paperwork. Tori never met her mother, but was raised by a family of mixed Magi, who taught her from a young age how to use her magic and how to run away from Hunters. Because of her build, she was naturally gifted at this, and quickly became very skilled at what humans call freerunning, and what she calls "escaping." However, her Magi family life didn't last long. Tori was always on the radar of the police because she was a Fire Magi, and when she was fifteen, she was accused of arson and sent to juvenile hall for a crime she never committed.

Tori quickly found herself as the center of a group of likewise alone Magi, and they attempted to orchestrate an escape, which failed miserably. The group was separated, and Tori took most of the blame. It wasn't until a human family decided to take her in that she finally was freed from juvie, and she hoped that her freedom would mean that she was able to see the Magi family that raised her, but she soon found out that they had been kidnapped by Hunters while she was in juvie. To make matters worse, the human family wanted nothing more than to squish the magic out of her, and did not allow her to use magic. When she disobeyed, she was punished harshly. At seventeen years of age, Tori ran away from her foster family, after her foster father nearly killed her while drunk.

Living on the streets as a fire magi was a challenge, especially since the law enforcement agents had a vested interest in seeing her returned to prison, but she managed to stay free with a combination of luck and daring that has made her difficult to keep track of. Now living on the streets of Felici, she manages to make her living as a pick-pocket and shoplifter. She occasionally teams up with other homeless Magi, whether to get food or to fend off the Hunters who also live in the city. Given what happened to her first foster family, she harbors an understandable resentment toward Hunters in general, and causes them trouble whenever she gets the chance. Hopefully, the luck that has kept her alive will not run out any time soon.

- Flame I: Just as most Magi Magic, the flames must already exist. So be prepared to carry around matches and lighters with you. You are able to grow fire from your immediate person to double your arms length.
- Heat: The ability to cause at least one appendage of your body to warm up at a time (arm, leg, etc). Your skin can get to the point of burning someone upon contact if you wish or remain at a comforting warmth. Judging your own character's level of experience and practice, they may be able to heat up their entire body at once.
- THROWING I (STARTER): Can accomplish fundamental and basic feats with weapon. Specialized projectiles now unlocked: Downer: The tip will inject the target with a Downer once purchased.




- Flame II: (Upgrade of Flame I) Can control a higher amount of flames that can reach up to 12 feet away from its origin.

- Flame Propulsion: Need an extra boost of speed? You are now capable of using your hands, feet, or all four as thrusters to shoot yourself forward at a much faster rate. It might take some time for the noobs to be able to keep up coordination with the speeds you're going at.

- Grenade: As you may have guessed those fiery projectiles aren't just burning someone now if they land. Upon making first contact with whatever it does it will explode with the approximate same strength as a military grenade.




- Throwing II: You are now better able to throw multiple projectiles at once. Unlocks Flash, Smoke Screen, and Net.
