I. Personal Overview
Name: Ezekiel Sturm
Nickname/Alias: Zeke
Gender: Male
Physical Age: 19
Date of Birth/Creation: June 30
Race: Human... Possibly
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 164 lbs
Birth Place: A run down shack built on the side of a mountain
Appearance:
NOTE: His eyes are green.
Personality: Zeke is a very confusing person to follow. He can be quiet, or he could wake up the forest. He can be empathetic and polite, or show no mercy and be quite crude. It really depends on who he's (not) talking to. Somewhat headstrong, but calculative, he weighs his options and bases his movements and attacks off his opponent's. Despite his normally cool, and calculating demeanor, he will be more open with people he likes, and will begin to lose control if he's totally outmatched. Also, like most young people, he still thinks he's somewhat invincible.
History: Zeke was born to a poor, widowed woman in her mountain hovel, three months after his father was killed in a boating accident trying to support the ailing family. His older brother died of yellow fever a month before Zeke was born, and his mother had caught the disease shortly afterwards. She survived to give birth to him, and died of the fever two months later. Before he could die of starvation, however, some hikers found the shack and the hungry baby inside, and took him back to the village. The local doctor cured his sickness, and took him in. The old geezer was a practitioner of not only medical arts, but magical arts as well. As soon as Zeke was walking, he was being read spells and incantations he wouldn't really rememeber, but it was the beginning of his obsession with all things magic.
As he grew up, he was presented with books on things such as alchemy, new sciences, and various magical arts, and he tore through them all, but he enjoyed the magic books the most. At night, he would sneak books out of his mentor's study, and read them at night, trying to cast basic spells that were still beyond him. When he turned 8, the doctor officially began tutoring him in the art of magic. As he progressed (slightly faster with a teacher), he began to venture further out into the wild, now that he had some spells to defend him. One day, he made his way back to his birthplace (having no idea what it really was). Inside, he found a hawk, preying on a cobra it had caught. When he came in, it flew out through a broken window, and it was there he met his longtime friend. Through a hole in the floorboards slithered the snake's offspring, scared by the hawk, but not caught. The tiny snake came right up to Zeke, and nipped at him a few times, but his fangs were too small to get through his gloves. He took the snake in, and brought it back to the village with him.
When he told the doctor the story (and, of course, asked the standard question, "Can I keep it?"), the doctor sighed, sat him down, and told him what had happened to his mother (or what he had heard from the hikers at least). As he listened, Zeke was strangely unaffected by what had happened. Despite this, he still tries to visit that shack every once and a while to put flowers by the wooden cross made from floorboards. As his tutelage continued, his master showed him his prize possession, a sword made from metal derived from melted crystal, and iron. The blade's conductive properties were great, and, as a parting gift, the doctor gave it to Zeke when he left his tutelage.
As all birds must leave the nest, Zeke set out to explore at the age of 18, preparing to find even more knowledge, and to train, and to return to his master at a later date, to show him what he had learned, and how the world would change him.
Transportation: Magic Boots (Lets him hover about 10 feet off the ground at max, and travel up to 20 mph while flying). Uses 2 MAG each post it's used.

II. Battle Information
Normal Theme: Orochimaru's theme from Naruto (Main theme starts at 0:18)
Battle Theme:
A. Overview
Current Level: 1
Current Stats: 15
Physical Prowess 3
Magical Talent 7
Weapon Handling 5
Luck Who needs luck? 0
Total Currency: 0
Strengths: A very pinpoint fighter, Zeke knows the various weak points of the human(oid) body, and can find these points in the heat of battle rather well. Even at range, his crystal spells can strike in pressure points that don't kill, merely wound or knock unconscious. He keeps a cool head, unless totally outmatched, where he might become less accurate or slightly hotheaded.
Weaknesses: Somewhat overconfident in his abilities. Zeke occassionally misjudges his opponent's level of resolve, and taunts them to the point they gain new strength. His worst weakness is, when being beaten, he often loses control, and goes bats*** f***ing insane, wasting energy with less pinpoint strikes, and wayward spells. One of his most embarassing tendencies is to trip over things he can't see because of his collar. He also has some trouble with strong wind-it can blow his needle attacks right off course. Another problem is his limited field of view, as the collar and the brim of his hat somewhat obscure objects up high and down low.
Combatant Type: Black Swordsman (Black Mage/Swordsman)
Fighting Style: At range, Zeke uses spells to distract/wound/confuse enemies, while drawing them closer, or getting closer himself. His close range style is precision and deadly, using jabs, cuts and lunges.
