34th Resurrection

[sanctus_dei]

[What does Theo do when he's bored? He gets drunk! And he certainly gets drunk a lot. Today's no exception. You'll find him:

A) At the pub, at a table. Somehow, his two crow familiars have snuck their way in with him. One is sitting on his shoulder, chatting at him quietly. Theo talks aloud with it. The other is flapping from table to table, sitting on chairs and curiously looking at other patrons, eavesdropping on conversations. Occasionally he returns to his master and fills him in on any juicy tidbits he overheard. Feel free to annoy/talk to/attempt to shoo Theo and his feathery friends.

B)Outside, there's someone who's fallen over in a snowbank! Maybe it's outside your house or you're passing by, but there's Theo, stuck there like an upturned turtle. There's a dropped flask a few feet away, and the crows are sitting with him unsure of what to do. The braver one gently pecks at his knee. The other one is doing the crow version of laughter.]

Quiet! Shut up! 'Course I can get up. Just gimme a minute.

[It's not going to happen. So what will you do? You should probably point and laugh and leave him there, but you can try and help him if you want.]

[Hey, where he comes from, "witch" is a dirty word and "sorcerer" sounds outdated.

He'll also gladly talk about himself and his powers all day long.]

I got it back a few months ago. The crows are from Mayfield, rather than being returned from home. I didn't have familiars there.

[Where he comes from-- he frequently has to deal with the occult. Death Gods, etc. Spellcaster isn't too far of a stretch]

They seem quite loyal to you.. [If I was one of the crows, would have left you in the snowbank]

What exactly can you do?

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

Force spells, for shielding and gravity attacks, some alchemy, and necromancy. [He grins smugly.]

[It was evident that Theo was quite pleased him his own abilities.]

Impressive. [Ciel offered, Although he had no use for such things currently, he couldn't rule out the prospect of the future.]

Damn right. Most spellcasters spend their entire lifetimes focusing on one or two areas, but I've picked up several in less than ten years.

You must be very dedicated to your craft, or possess a natural affinity for it.

[At least Theo isn't drunk enough to slur his speech]

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

Little of both.

[Nope! He's am amazingly well-spoken drunk. Walking, though, is slow and wobbly.]

[Says nothing to Theo's claim. Come on... hurry up.. before too many people have the chance to see you like this, walking with me..]

You'll have to show me a demonstration sometime.

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

Anytime. Though necromancy is useless in a town where nothing stays dead. That's why I've been picking up new specialties while I'm here.

[How about when you aren't inebriated?] I had wondered about that particular skill in this setting. What have you been working on lately?

[Hey, drunken spell casting is an awesome idea, right?]

Defensive spells. Our house is the safest in town when it comes to magical defenses, by the way.

[Only if you want to risk losing something or getting injured in the process]

Is it really? That is good to know.
