Name: Phantas
Age: 20 years old
Birthday: Unknown
Gender: Male
Species: Half-human half-mana elemental
Category: Citizen
Appearance Description:
Phantas is a short 4’11” person with a stocky and mostly soft build. His limbs and eyes are made of perwinkle (light blue-purplish) glowing mana. His skin is a rather neutral brown colour, but tends to softly shimmer and glow the same periwinkle colour. His hair is off-white yellow and has lines of mana and glowing tendrils of mana sticking out from it. His ears are small, but indicated by a large constant tendril of flowing mana.
The large arms and legs of mana are more simple in design than human limbs, having the thickness of human limbs at the start, but thickening and widening into large claw-like hands or feet. All of his mana glows softly and seems to continually be flowing, as if it were a stream of mana moving to and from his core. His mana will change colour according to certain emotional reactions he may get, or during certain seasons or weather conditions which affect his mood.
He likes to wear comfortable, loose clothing, although none of it can successfully have long sleeves due to his mana limbs getting in the way. He generally prefers brown, yellow, white or black clothing.
Personality Description:
Phantas is a strange personification of living in the moment. He lives to enjoy the simple pleasures of being human in life. Be that empathic pleasure in having fun with friends, helping people or physical pleasures like food or a rush of adrenaline from doing something exciting. He is however much calmer and less interested in things that he may regret in the long term. This difference from most other ‘living in the moment’ people gives him an air of wisdom.
Phantas is very easily downtrodden or annoyed though, even the smallest problem ruins the moment. Something usually insignificant like dropping some food he was carrying may irritate him greatly. He also has a hard time with dealing with people who aren’t aware of the nuance of the situation or have a simpler outlook on things. He is generally judgemental and this becomes even worse in the face of those who don’t seem too smart.

Biography:
Phantas has had a very straightforward life. His earliest memory includes coming to and existing deep inside a cave. Unaware of the parts of human essence and the raw mana used to create his very body and personality, born of a magical mishap in and of itself. The young child had but one toy worth playing with. A crystal ball that when he touched and closed his eyes, he could see into the life of other people with.
He could not control whom's life it was looking at and where he was looking, but it always seemed to be in the closeby areas of europe. Deep inside an alpes cave, at a point which would never be explored, he used the crystal ball to peer into the lives, and feel the thoughts and experiences of those the crystal ball deemed to be the one worth looking at at the moment. He learned fragments of various european languages, but mostly english, and learned of human life through all this peering.
As he grew older, his understanding of the world grew, but the crystal ball would never show him a way out of his cave complex. So he remained there, in the safety of his isolation and comfort of the furniture and magical candles of his cave. However, as time passes, so did the amount of mana Phantas could hold and manipulate, and so did his magical signature and influence on the world around him. Only having heard hints of the existence of magic though, Phantas had no way to know that he was becoming more noticeable and having more effect on these caves.
Due to his magical influence on the world around him increasing, he wouldn’t be able to hide forever. Recently discovered, he was given a chance to go Manta Carlos island. With plenty of personal reasons backing him up, he took up on the offer. He left his cave with nothing but his clothes to accompany him. He had no more need for any of the services and enchanted items the cave had offered him, crystal ball included. Now he was a new arrival in Manta Carlos, leading a life of his own where he didn’t need to stay hidden.
Resources: Phantas basically doesn't have any resources worth noting. The home he used to have doesn't have any valuables worth taking out of it, and he doesn't have a job or a home of any type. This doesn't bother him and he generally doesn't feel a need for much else than clothes because his body is self-nourishing.

He is generally judgemental and this becomes even worse in the face of those who don’t seem too smart.
Active Abilities:
Phantas can also change the nature and type of the mana that flows through him. By physically touching an object imbued with a certain type of magic, usually strongly imbued with it, he can change the mana of that entire limb to be magic of the object touched (for example: Touching an enchanted holy cross allows him to change his limb and any shape manipulations coming from that limb to holy magic). The amount of magic he has is not changed by this, nor is the power of the enchantment on the item or the enchanted item itself changed. It simply changes the type of his own mana.
Phantas can also change the nature and type of his mana. By physically touching an object imbued with a certain type of magic with his pure mana body parts, he can change the mana type of that part to fit the object touched (for example: Touching an enchanted holy cross with his right hand allows him to change his right arm and any shape manipulations coming from it to holy magic). The amount of magic he has is not changed by this, nor is the power of the enchantment on the item or the enchanted item itself changed. It simply changes the type of his own mana.
Lastly, Phantas’ mana manipulation allows him to manipulate the mana within objects, allowing him to empower existing enchantments and place enchantments on objects. An existing enchantment can only be powered up to a level of power Phantas could enchant an object with himself, and only up to a maximum of 10x the power of the original enchantment. He is not capable of doing this with anything sentient or the extension of anything sentient. The process of placing-, removing- or permanently adjusting an enchantment takes time and cannot be done in a rush, taking at least 5 minutes, up to multiple hours depending on the amount of change.
Passive Abilities:
Phantas can sense the flow of mana and movement of mana in all things. Because of this, he can sense any effect that uses magic. He cannot determine what the effect is or how it works, but can naturally sense it's location and intensity. This reaches as far as a human's hearing would, only sensing past a few yards if the effects are extreme, and subtle effects like a slight magical aura would only be sensed from a close distance like a whisper.
Having certain parts of your body be made of pure energy does result in those parts behaving differently. Body parts made of mana do not rupture or wound, rather only diminishing in energy and strength when exerting effort. It’s as if they pull from a battery and doing physical feats with these limbs consumes charge from the battery, weakening the limbs in turn. If Phantas would lose his limbs, they would return as his mana recharges. Phantas can recharge his mana in a single rest of about 7 hours.
Mana exists in the very air, and as it moves, Phantas' body replenishes itself with it. This provides accelerated healing, usually healing him 10 times as fast as a human would normally heal. In areas where there’s a lot of mana present, this can be up to 20 times as fast. Permanent wounds can be healed, although they will do so at the speed a normal human would heal if they could heal from permanent wounds. The mana nourishes his body, meaning he doesn’t need food or water. This effect does not affect the ambient mana enough to have a noteworthy effect on other people. This effect also does not work if there is not enough ambient mana in the environment for Phantas to feed himself with. Potentially lethal damage is difficult to heal, and Phantas requires assistance just like any human to survive.
The mana existing in Phantas' body can be used as ambient energy to empower a spellcaster's spells. Anyone closeby can draw from Phantas as a mana reserve to empower their spells, if they use ambient mana for spells. Phantas has no say in this and for that reason this is also a weakness.
Weaknesses:
Being made of mana, Phantas is dangerously allergic to effects that would halt the flow of mana or eradicate mana in its entirety. He would quickly deteriorate inside an antimagic or magic nullifying field.
While other magical effects and spells cause magical energies to be manipulated and no longer count as ambient mana, the same does not apply to Phantas' body. Being made of mana makes him basically a battery of ambient mana, which can be stolen to empower spells with by any mage who is competent enough to do so and close enough to do so. Stealing this mana from Phantas weakens him and harms him. Phantas can only resist this effect enough to prevent himself from being instantly drained to death.
