magic info-gathering

[warpandweft]

So! Alucard's special skill is that he is able, roughly speaking, to see magic even when it's not actively being performed. He can see whether or not someone has magical abilities, he can see the after effects of spells even if there isn't actually any visible evidence of them, he can see spellwork and curses and natural sources of magic. They all show up as different colors to him (for example, his world's version of inherent magic in people shows up as auras of green and blue) depending on what the context is.

Because of that, this is a small information gathering poll to determine what Alucard might see when he looks at characters who have something to do with magic (in an ongoing way).

<b>character name</b> <b>what sort of interaction do they have with magic?</b> i.e., are they a mage/wizard/magical being themselves? are they affected by magic in some way? do they carry magical items on them regularly? <b>if they've got magical talent themselves, please describe their abilities in as little or as much detail as you'd like:</b> (this helps me determine what colors Alucard might see their aura as <b>if they're affected by a spell or carry objects affected by spells, describe those too:</b> also, please let me know how comfortable you are with Alucard being able to figure out what those spells/curses/what-have-you do. Given that it's not his native magic, I'm fine with him being unable to decipher any of it, having him be able to vaguely guess, or being able to completely figure out what's going on as necessary.

thanks!

character name Dorian Pavus
what sort of interaction do they have with magic? A fabulous mage with specialization in Necromancy and Thaumaturgy. No staff currently, but in the process of procuring one.
if they've got magical talent themselves, please describe their abilities in as little or as much detail as you'd like: so much talent. so much.. His specialization is necromancy, which goes hand in hand with fire magic. He can use the two in combination with one another to heighten the effects. One of his spells causes time to slow down in a 10 meter radius while people of his choosing continue to move at normal speed. He dabbles in some storm magic and a bit of ice, but they are not his main branches of spells. He can put up a good barrier, but don't ask him to heal.
if they're affected by a spell or carry objects affected by spells, describe those too: as of right now (until he gives it back to Leilani) he is in possession of a sending crystal- it's a means for communication with the wearer of an identical crystal.
