Age: 37
Birthday: August 10
Gender: Male
Category: Citizen, owner of Wells' Whales Well - Done Steak and Seafood
Appearance Description: Wells has a head of short, light brown hair slicked back, extending only to the nape of his neck. His eyes have a rather tired look to them, and above his nose rests a pair of rectangular glasses with a thin black frame. His nose is somewhat high, and sharp.
Wells stands at 6'2, and is often wears a pinstriped dress shirt tucked out with the sleeves folded to barely past his elbow, slacks, and leather shoes. His build is lean and his arms have a considerable amount of hair on them.
Personality Description: Wells is a hardworking and earnest man, with a bit of an overly - cautious streak. He is sensible and patient, though he does get easily exasperated. Down - to - earth would be a bit of an accurate summary for him; while he is supportive of people who chase after dreams, he is very content to simply cook and live day - to - day.
Powers:
Animancy:
Karl has the power to control souls... except that it isn't quite developed and instead he only has control over his own, and it isn't even proper control. It manifests most commonly as astral projection, and he can consciously control his soul as if it were another body. The soul can fly, phase through objects, nudge things around with some force (capable of moving no more than 10 pounds), and possess inanimate objects, but only small and simple objects - machines are off limits, as are anything larger than a pillow.
The problem lies in the fact that Robert often unconsciously projects his spirit, causing him to collapse at random times, for random durations depending on how far his spirit gets forced out. Sometimes it just ends up a few feet away, letting him regain control quickly, and sometimes it goes farther away, causing extended unconsciousness.
Harrison's soul is also not quite properly aligned or synchronized with his body, and those with the capability to see souls would notice that he is constantly leaving behind a trail of sorts. Bits and pieces of mana from his soul are left behind wherever he goes, and his soul is only two - thirds inside his body at any point. As such, he often moves a bit slowly and gets magically exhausted easily.
Biography: In the 10th of August, 1978, Karl Robert Harrison Wells was born to a family in downtown Manta Carlos, who expected great things from him. And what they got instead was a fair amount of trouble, for Karl's powers were quick to manifest. As a kid, he was first diagnosed of a plethora of mental problems relating to his regular bouts of unconsciousness and talks of seeing outside his body.
At the age of seven Robert's parents realized the possibility of him having some uncontrolled power, and had him checked by Starlight Academy. A quick check verified that he did have some power, and so they let him pursue his education there.
While Harrison studied and spent time in Starlight Academy, and in fact graduated from it as a high school alumni, he never did manage to completely get rid of his blackouts, nor did he end up gaining complete control over his power. However, he was fine with it and grew up to be a respectable adult. The power he had never really mattered to him in any way and for the most part, he did not actually use it.
Karl took up Architecture at Starlight Academy but left that career behind for the most part, opting to instead study cooking, which always fascinated him. His grades and performance were stuck to being average due to his focus on something else entirely, and faculty started noticing his distraction. Hoping to refocus him, guidance instead ended up making him pursue his love of cuisine, and he dropped out immediately.
Using his savings and some help from his parents, Robert studied abroad for eight years at the age of eighteen, taking classes and working in whatever restaurants he could in various places, never staying in one place for more than a year. During that almost - decade of travel, at the age of 26, he met a local woman in an American city and had a brief relationship, which ended up making him a single father to a son. His studies involved a lot of travel, but now a father, he decided to come back to Manta Carlos and settle down.
Harrison returned at the age of 28 with a two year - old child to care for, and for a time, things were rough. However, after three years of having to live off odd jobs and parental help, an opportunity opened up. There in Manta Carlos became available for cheap a decent two floor beachside property, which he quickly snatched up and converted into Wells' Whales Well - Done Steak and Seafood. Once again, things looked risky as it was an all - in investment, but six months into Wells' Whales' existence, it became clear that everything was going to begin looking up.
Profit increased as more customers flocked to his restaurant, and Wells actually ended up expanding, adding a catering service and a small bar in the fourth year of Wells' Whales. Nowadays, business is still steady and growing, though slowly; and Karl Robert Harrison Wells still works the kitchen, followed around by his eleven year - old son Tarryn Everette.
Additional Information:
Karl likes comic books.
Robert refers to himself using all of his names and cycles through them in conversation, mostly just to amuse himself.
Harrison dislikes cats.
