Appearance Description: Auden is said to look rather grown up for his age. Starting off by his 5'5", his height does not stop him. His body is rather slender, as no matter what he eats, it seems as if it just passes through him. This does not make him weak however, as he often takes runs in the morning, as well as if he is trying to get away from someone. You could say that his legs look rather strong, as well as his biceps, but everything else is not as defined. He usually dresses rather classy, though this is mostly because of his wanting for people to not see him as a bad person. He believes that he obviously looks better in a tuxedo or casual business clothes when addressing people he doesn't know. It seems that when he starts to hang out with his friends and interests, that he is more laid back in his attire. He has a knack for red clothes, and will usually fashion himself in any red item he can.

His face is another topic entirely, as it is what usually draws people in. To put it simply, he looks rather innocent. He has those big but half narrow eyebrows, that make his puppy-dog faces very believable. Miraculously, it seems that there are no scars on any part of his face, making it a marvel for anyone to look at. His ears stick out a bit from his face, though that only allows him the chance to show off how he can easily wiggle them. If he stays out in the sun for very long periods of him, there will be a very thick layer of freckles across his upper cheeks, as well as the bridge of his nose.

The Raven Mocker's hair is a very light yellow, which can make his hair look white if the sun hits it. In other words, it's a platinum blonde. His hair is very straight, so every once in a while he will add gel or hairspray into it so that there is more definition of his layers. The boy likes to keep it short, so in the front, he makes sure that it only ever touches the top of his ear. The feeling of having his hair touch the inner part of his ear freaks him out. Even in the back, he doesn't like his hair to be super long, so he trims it down and keeps it at the nape of his neck (if not even shorter).

If you had to choose one thing about him that stood out, it would be his eyes. Though they are usually covered by a pair of deep red sunglasses, the beauty underneath them is never truly hidden. Auden's eyes could be described as rather box like, as it seems as if they look almost artificial due to their shape. The color makes up for the weird structure of them, as the glowing red could take anyone's breath away; it's hard not to stare, and that's exactly what he wants.

Sadly though, there is another form of his that lingers inside of him. This form however, is not as pleasant and good looking. His once very light yellow hair turns into a jet black, though the shape and length of the hair doesn't change. There is a mask that covers his face, one that he attaches himself to hide is face, as well as add to his overall accuracy with his killings. The mask is white, which fashions a pair of black goggles that go over his eyes. They have red gears, then two different sized white circles. Auden can see through the black whole in the middle of each side of the glasses. Though, this mask is not 2D, as there is a long beak that extends outwards to look like that of a raven.

His neck and shoulders is then outfitted with a thick of feathers, as of that of a wolf or bear. There is also a large mass of feathers that collects around his hip area, going all the way around. His skin becomes very pale, making a full on white skin tone. To add to that, there are two black wings that have grown out of his back, which stand about a foot and a half from his head in height. They go down to the ends of his fingers when they are not extended. On his right hand, a raven like claw hand forms over his human one, coming in black and sharp.

Personality Description:
Carefree: There is little that scares Auden anymore. After having such a tragic and broken upbringing-as well as his own personal choices-he is not afraid to die. Even at his young age, the thought of it doesn't scare him at all. Due to this rather big fact in his life, he is not afraid to take more risks, to hurt people and to have regrets.

Amoral: Who needs morals? That's what Auden thinks for sure. He doesn't like to question his actions, or how they will affect others around him. If it feels good enough for him to try, he will be sure to do it. This of course, is all coming from the mind of a 14 year old, so his choices already have that impact before his utter lack of rightness comes into play.

Selfish: You guessed it, he only truly cares about himself; this of course, was after the fact that his entire family was killed off. After such a trauma, there is no wonder that this boy had some trusting issues. It went deeper than that though, as it seemed that he had a hard time to feel any reason to help someone. Even when it was for his own benefit, he hated having to owe people. If he were to ever get stuck on someone, he'd become a bit too, overly attached. Yandere to put it bluntly.

Over-Adventurous: This may be an understatement. This fight or flight factor may as well be broken; it's more likely that it doesn't exist. Anything that a normal person would see as insane or dangerous, Auden is your go to person to try anything and everything. Go underground with some crazy man? Sure! Have a brawl with a dude with amazing super powers? Why not! Sadly though, a lot of these incidents are started by him. Through his power, these experiences can be fun and not too dangerous that he would get hurt (over the limit he wants to be of course).

Powers:
Persuasion:
This being is only power, he is able to persuade people. Though, these persuasions are never out of what someone would do normally. So, someone that would never hurt anything, would not kill someone, even if they were under his influence. Also, they have to be able to actually do the act, so flying for a person with no powers relating to it will not work. So putting it shortly, a person will not do something that is out of their moral code or what they can physically do.

He is able to use this power as many times as he wants in until he falls asleep. Once he wakes up, there will be consequences. To cheat himself, he likes to take midday naps, or even naps in class so that he does not have to wait as long, or have to deal with the consequences. Sadly though, every time he uses it, the cool down period becomes higher and higher. This time period can also make Auden very sick if his number of uses is high enough. So you could say that this power is on a clock. If he tries to use his power when his cool down period is in progress, it will be in-effective. His body will give off no warning signs, making it very awkward to mess up. Every effect lasts as long as the waiting time for his powers, which can make some of the high uses extremely painful for him. To make things even better, even failed attempts count.

8; Waiting time of 780 minutes, headache, lighly blurred vision
9; Waiting time of 900 minutes, migraine
10; Waiting time of 1 day, unable to stand or see as well as almost unbearable head pains; bedridden

To actually be persuaded by him, there must be direct eye contact. For the purpose of not persuading everyone he meets, he wear his sunglasses wherever he goes. Once they are off and he is staring into your eyes, there is a pulling feeling. It is as if there is 1 million dollars in his eyes, as he has seen that it is hard for people to look away. Of course, people have if his attempts are too vague and morally incorrect for the person. Some people also just have a very strong willpower. Also, the more times he uses it in a day, the less likely it is to work. Especially if he is using it on the same person over and over, they have a higher chance of realizing that he is trying to persuade him.

When they are under his influence, there is a feeling of surreal experiences. As if they are fully in a dream, but fully conscious of the choices and opinions that may be slipping into them. The more he persuades a certain person, they become less weary of him persuading him, to the point that they may only remember parts of it. Though, this part of his powers has not been explored very much. They usually do not argue as Auden talks to them either, as they either give a clear yes or no. Even though this power is made to bend people to his will, who they are does not change. If they are usually nervous about staying up later than their curfew, they will still act nervous, but have a much higher chance of saying what the heck rather than continuing with the fully nervous answer. When persuading someone, he must end it with a question mark, as if to prompt the person to answer. "Staying out after your curfew isn't that bad, right?" This is the only way that it seems to be effective.

Species Abilities:
Raven Mocker
Being the lovely monster that he is, his hobby is taking people's souls for his own. He is able to change into this form at will-which only takes about 6 seconds-, though he usually gets tired if he stays in it for too long. This only works if the person is dying, or very recently deceased. When the soul is consumed, it adds however many years the dying person had left of theirs naturally, onto his own lifespan. If someone was killed off unnaturally (an example being murdered), he would get however many years they would have had left. For sickly people however, it all depends on how severe their sickness was. Also, anyone that is under the influence of something-whether this be drugs, powers or anything else-, he has a higher chance of taking their souls. Though this tires him, a beaten and weakened soul is better than nothing. This however, does not work for immortal people, as he does not get any benefit from eating that type of soul; though they do taste a lot sweeter. Though Auden is able to eat and enjoy normal food, there is still a nagging feeling that makes the need to eat a soul present a lot of the time. At the very most, Auden can go a month without eating a soul.

Flight
Due to his Raven Mocker form having wings, he is indeed able to fly. Though there is no big limitations on what he can do, he is only able to fly for 20 minutes at a time before he has to take a few minutes to let his wings and body rest.

Invisibility
While he is feasting on a soul, his Raven Mocker body becomes invisible, making his feasting time enjoyable and undisturbed. This works for as long as he is eating and over someone's corpse. Once he moves away, this ability goes away and he is back to being visible.

Biography:
Warning: Vague mention of suicide and murder.
Oh how he wished that his life had been all roses and cherry blossoms when he was growing up. Sadly, when you are a child to a pair of drug dealers... Your life can get a bit all over the place. Constantly moving from city to city, his parents didn't even stay a year in Brooklyn, which meant that when his sister Allamara came, they were in somewhere completely different. Even then, it seemed that the second Allamara was able to crawl, they moved once again.

At the age of 12, his parents died due to their job. It isn't the best when you owe a big drug lord a lot of money. This of course, put a damper on Allamara-who was only 6 at the time- and his life, as they had no one to rely on for their food and shelter. Instinctively, Auden himself tried to carry on what his parents had done so well, but it was only a few days until his parent's murderers found him. Taking him away from Allamara and questioning him endlessly about subjects he had no knowledge of only broke him even more. When his 13th birthday rolled around (two months after being kidnapped), Auden made a desperate escape, to which he used his powers and underlying species. Persuading his captors over and over again until his power evolved and was slowly made stronger through this practice; the last straw was well... Eating their rather weak souls.

Once out of his imprisonment, Auden kept a lot in the shadows, as his newly found powers were just a bit too much to handle right off the bat. Once he controlled his hunger for souls and bought a pair of sunglasses, he set out to find his lost sister. It didn't take too long until he, sadly found out the fate of his little sister. The front page of every newspaper had something to do with her. The one that caught his eye was: "Girl of 7 jumps off a building after being cornered by the police; calling out to someone named Auden."

With that, he refused to show his face anywhere, usually staying in his raven mocker form and keeping in the woods or unlit areas of whatever city he wandered into. After a while, it seemed that people took notice of his soul stealing, asking him to go somewhere to forget his past. Without regard to his own life, he agreed to join Manta Carlos.
