Lazarus had always been afraid of what he could do, always fearful of the big bad world around him. His Mother, a person weilding marvelous powers much like his own, lives far up in a secluded area in the mountains of New Jersey. Much like Lazarus, she hides her powers and uses them only in the most dire of settings. Her husband, Lazarus’s father, was a hero who worked very hard to supply for the family but after being caught up in something way to complicated, it cost him his life. This life of heroes and villains made the remaining family frightful and worried, hiding themselves away from busy places.

His Mother began a small business in wickery, making scultpures and various items to sell to various travellers through the village. They didn’t earn much, but they had plenty of money from what his Father earned during his time as a hero. Lazarus would often venture out into the mountain forests in search for items for the shop, collecting things like herbs and various wildlife for natural ointments and remedies he’d practice making.

But Lazarus isn’t exactly one to stay locked up in a small house collecting plants all day. He has moved out to Kingsport with his older cousin to study medicine in one of the schools there. Although disapproved of by his family, Lazarus does intend to help others around him. Now living in an area full of crime, he wants to make himself useful.

Often seen roaming the streets at night, Lazarus is on the look out for something, anything that he can help with. Still unsure of the hidden gangs and underground businesses, Lazarus is doing his best to gain more knowledge of the world around him. As long as he can keep it a secret, he'll be happy.

A narrow term for quite a broad power, ‘Concealment’ is the nickname Lazarus has given to his ability to negate and conceal certain aspects to this world. By releasing torrents of sparkling dust (controlling it like a swarm of insects), Lazarus is able to cast certain effects on objects, people and even abstract forms. Lazarus is able to use this to block attacks by expelling its existence, essentially nullifying its effects much in the same way heat makes water evaporate. It can also be cast to conceal someone’s presence, not making them invisible, but rather making them more difficult to spot in a crowd. Lazarus can also use this sparkling mist to block someone’s thought, emotion and even speech like a type of mental paralysis. Due to his nullification abilities, Lazarus has a permanent type of 'block' against mind reading, empathy reading and similar skills used against him. Although it is not strong enough to block out skilled beings, it is enough to cause a slight discomfort and alert him that someone is trying to pry into his mind.





Still unsure as to how this works, or why he even has this ‘curse’ as he likes to call it, Lazarus must try his best not to shed a single tear. Whenever Lazarus cries, his energy opens up like a beacon to darkness, attracting negative energies and spirits. Dark entities fight for control over his body, putting him through much pain during the process. Upon possession, Lazarus’s power flips to the total opposite. His powers will no longer defend him against evil, but will instead be the source of destruction. The once delicate mist he could expel from his body is now a thick black fog that resembles dark monstrous creatures. He will be able to warp perception and reality around him, turning it into a literal nightmare for people within the area. And above all this, Lazarus’s mind becomes much more unclear and hazy, making his actions hasty and laced with an evil intent. Do take caution around him if you see those pale white eyes.


Lazarus isn't the most strongest of people, or the most smartest. But living in the mountains for most of his life has made him quite the agile person. He's quick on his feet and always very alert of his surroundings. His unpredictable movements make him a pain to keep an eye on, especially paired with his presence concealment ability. 

Growing up with his Mum meant he picked up quite a lot of knowledge on various herbs and wildlife. He knows which plant to grab when someone's got a fever, or which mushrooms are edible and which ones aren't. Lazarus has also learnt quite a bit about mixing ointments and medicinal treatments together which is why he's decided to study drugs and medicine at a school.
