Verde Mageheart

Appearance
Verde Mageheart is a 16 year old human boy, weighing in at 180 pounds, and standing at 5'11. He has short brown hair and dark green eyes. He wears a pair of white glasses on his face. He's a very pale boy, with a somewhat lanky and tall build. He isn't muscular in the slightest, nor is he very fast either.

Verde wears a green hoodie with white accents on top of a plain short sleeved white tee shirt. He wears a pair of grey cargo pants with many pockets on them. He also wears a pair of green and white shoes. Around his neck, Verde wears a simple silver necklace with a trinket in the shape of a closed book.

Personality
Verde is normally a very curious person. He enjoys learning and loves to view everything in different ways. He loves to help people in every way he can. He views the world in a 'glass half full' kind of way, often looking on the bright side of things, though he does know that the world is also full of villainy. He can sometimes be a social butterfly, especially during the evening, but he is far from a morning person.

Verde has never been very quick or strong like most other people. In fact, has was never really into doing things that his brothers were into. Instead, Verde focused on trying to work on his studies. Despite this though, he always tried to keeep an opptomistic attitude towards everything. Even though he wasn't into doing labor like his brothers, Verde did enjoy talking with people and getting to know what they thought about certain things.

Verde likes helping others, acts of kindness, sparring, the act of learning, fighting bullies, and casual conversation. He hates Bullies, being mean, hurting people for no reason, and illogical ideas.

Weapons and Abilities
Verde mainly dual wields a sword and a staff in combat. His staff is able to use dust in projectile combat, normally utilizing yellow and white, but he isn't very picky when it comes to dust colors and types, he'll take them and use any he can get his hands on.

His staff, serenity, is his main weapon and the one he is more skilled with. Serenity is a simple staff with a glowing green orb at the top. He can use the staff to parry physical attacks and it can be used to bash objects and enemies, but Verde often tries to avoid doing that with Serenity. Instead, he likes to focus on using his staff with dust as the main way to fight with it.

Verde also wields his sword, Chaos, as a way to fight in physical combat. Chaos, while being a main weapon of Verde's, isn't always his weapon of choice. While he has some skill in the blade, his weakness often makes his combat with the sword not all that well. It should be noted that Verde has a quick sword arm, but even then it is not enough to win many fights.

Verde's semblence is often the strongest asset that he has. When Verde focuses, his eyes left eye turns light blue and Verde is able to focus on the functions of a person. By watching and observing someone, Verde is able to track physical weaknesses that they might be hiding, an example of this would be if someone were to slightly hesitate moving to the left because their left leg was injured in some unnoticable way. Verde's semblence does not last long, only managing to last for about 30 minutes. Any longer and Verde will start to suffer from eye and head pain. If he holds it for 45 minutes, he will start to suffer brain trauma, and if lasts for 1 hour, Verde will pass out and when awoken, he will suffer from amnesia.

That being said, when Verde is able to use the semblence, he is at his greatest. He is able to see things at a slower rate, and can dodge attacks much easier. He can calculate the best course of action this way and can see the weak spots, in not just people, but in items as well. While his physical abilitiest do not increase when his semblence is active, his brain starts working double time and Verde is able to see and understand things he couldn't before. This is often the way he picks what type of dust to use in a fight (when he has the option to be picky, that is.)

Backstory
Verde was born to a set of wonderful parents in a somewhat small town. He spent much of his time inside, reading stories and studying things, unlike his brothers who prefered to play outside and rough house. Verde wasn't into that kind of stuff normally, until he started to get training in the ways of the staff, which is when he started to practice sparring with his older brother. Despite his skill with it, he just couldn't quite get things right, and it was at that time that Verde was introduced to dust and learned how to use dust with his staff. At the same time, he started to pick up sword lessons on the side from his older brother, who was far from an expert but was certainly better at it than he was.

Around the age fo 13, Verde learned that his younger brother was being bullied and decided that he would try to handle the conflict, only to find out that the boy that was bullying his brother was, in fact, older than Verde was. The bully used many underhanded and dubious tactics to beat Verde into nothing. Even if hadn't used those tactics, he would still be better in combat than Verde was. The younger one knew that he needed to find something to exploit in battle to fight him, but he couldn't think of what. That was when Verde began to notice that the bully was moving slightly slower than normal, and Verde also saw he thrusted his balde, which left his center and his arm wide open for attacks. He didn't use a shield and that lowered his defense. Verde took that to his advantage and parried an attack with his sword so that he could get a good jab in the bully's stomach with his staff. Verde loved fighting this bully, and realized at that time that he loved fighting people for good.

Verde was accepted into Phoenix, a small academy that taught academics, alongside combat, and took to that school much better than his previous one. Combat was another learning experience, and Verde loved to learn. Three years later, Verde wanted to go to a school that taught hunters and huntresses. He wanted some place where he could one day defend all of humanity from monsters, and thus he learned of and applied at Beacon Academy.

Verde has been accepted into the school, and the young man is currently traveling a not-so-far distance to the school.
