PERSONALITY

Grey is not an exceptionally nice guy. He's mostly quiet and keeps to himself but given that he needs to socialise he tends to be sharp spoken and doesn't suffer any fools. You most likely will not like him at the first glance, or the second for that matter.

He's a loner, comfortable with his own company and considers other people to be an unnecessary distraction. A lone wolf with little or no charisma points. He hates wasting time if it's not his own decision to do so, which makes him impatient with people, direct and downright rude. He has a sense of humor but it's dryer than Sahara and he very rarely laughs or smiles even if something manages to amuse him.

He tends to be pretty utilitarian and uninterested in your problems. He likes animals definitely better than humans.


ABOUT

Grey is a shaman in a near future world that has gone so very wrong at some point. He mostly works as an exorcist, traveling around Europe taking cases that no sane person would touch. He's originally from Finland but has a semi-permanent place in London.

APPEARANCE

Dirty blond hair, reaches down to his upper back, stone grey eyes, shaggy beard, dark rings under his eyes, impressive brow, dark and brooding. Grey is fairly tall, fairly muscular, broad shouldered, maybe a little on the skinny side.

He's not pretty by any standards but has something striking and unforgiving in his appearance. He dresses mostly in dark or grey colours, but his attires tend to be second hand or at least partly recycled, which makes him look haphazardly put together. Around his neck dangles a collections of protective symbols, wooden disks with hannunvaakuna depicted on them, a cross, a pentacle, some Enochian wards.

His arms and back are riddled with tattoos, magical symbols mostly. On his back the tattoo covers his whole back and represents his own magical situation as well as borrows a lot from Finnish mythology. There's an egg tangled up in a root situation on a tree that spans across his back. There are birds and bear claws, etc.


ABILITIES

He speaks various Euro languages, possesses fairly adequate survivalist abilities and can sing/play a few instruments. He's also educated in a lot of folk lore and mythology, knows his bible, demonology, and exorcism techniques. Can fix an engine but fails with computers. Cooks okay food on campfire. He has a few firearms and is a decent shot.

His magic is shamanistic, nature based, vocal and very Finnish. (Ask me more about it if you want to know!)Or read here!


BACKGROUND

Born in 2010 in south-east Finland, in a small place called Pernaja. An hour away from Helsinki and still surrounded by deep forests, he knows how to survive in a large city but he also was capable of taking the boat out to the lake at the age of ten and fish his own breakfast. His parents were practising magic users, teachers, crafters, independent entrepreneurs.

After his parents died, more or less by his own hand, he left Finland just before the ban was erected and backpacked his way through Europe for a decade. Getting rid of as many demons as possible is his goal in life.

He's had a flat in London for a better part of the last decade. He likes it there. Better than in Oslo, even if Oslo is completely demon free zone. London fits to his own style and temperament much better. His best friend, Kai, lives nearby with his little girl. Those two pretty much make up his whole family and world.
