Appearance Description: Robin stands at only 5’7, weighing only 115lbs, also meaning that she is fairly flat in both in waist and in bust size – being at most a B-cup. She has fair skin, alongside a very pale complexion – possibly a side-effect of her powers, or just staying inside. Her hair is blonde and almost religiously brushed, reaching down to her waist, the bright yellow of her hair accompanying her bright blue eyes. Her left hand will regularly be covered in scars and cuts, due to how her powers binding works. This can sometimes lead to bouts of illness.

Robin’s normal attire consists of a dark-grey, shoulderless shirt, normally covered up by a zipped up, maya blue jacket with an upturned collar – with a lower portion of the jacket left unzipped. Her lower half consisting of a skirt the same colour as her jacket reaching down to her upper thigh, which is accompanied by thigh-length black socks and a simple pair of black slip-on shoes.

At the stark end and beginning of the day, she will most likely be seen in a dull green tracksuit, alongside grey running shoes. As these are the times she will more than likely be out running or exercising

Personality Description: Throughout the times of day, Robin seemingly changes her personality entirely. When you find her throughout the day, you will see a regularly hyperactive girl, the kind of girl who you’ll seemingly see in every group, event and club at least once. How well she does in those clubs and events varies wildly, as she considers herself fairly clumsy – regularly tripping up due to her constant moving and lack of focus in conversation. Whenever any kind of argument takes place – Robin will never take sides, regardless of who is participating and the context, always trying to get the best result for everyone involved. She enjoys knowledge of the people around her, as this gives her a good idea of the things to say to them, where they might go, what to eat. She will also try stalwartly to avoid getting anything for free, as she feels that what has worth is worth paying for. Regardless.

When she’s in her dorm. She’s the opposite, you’d be lucky to find her doing anything inside her room other than sitting on her laptop, sleeping or exercising. The only reason her apartment isn’t in a terrible state is due to her necromantic powers, as she can simply use her summoned skeletons to do the majority of the daily tasks for her. When not exercising, sleeping, or doing whatever on her laptop, she will more than likely be reading up on the philosophy of whoever’s book she’s come across.
Robin’s roommate reminds her very much of herself in her younger years – considering her general laziness at all times and reclusion at Starlight. While she’ll call her a friend, sometimes she debates with herself if that’s even the case.

Powers: Being born with the power to resurrect the deceased sounds like something that could only be used for pure evil, and mostly it is. Except when you’re Robin. In her case, she simply uses them for menial work, such as cleaning, cooking, etc. due to their lack of any higher, and most lower, functions. The ability to simply give them a basic task makes them great servants for an hour or so depending on how much was given in the binding

Unfortunately for her, with how her powers were passed on to her – she does not require any kind of external object to cast her spells. In order to properly complete a bind – however - she has to give whatever spirit inhabits the skeleton some kind of life, and the easiest thing to give it is blood. Due to this, she keeps a small blade of whatever kind she can get on herself. It’s also the explanation to the many small cuts across her left hand’s palm – alongside being in a clear mental state in order to properly invite a spirit. While it’s not necessary to expose blood, it is the safest way, as having a spirit pass through you and taking something can end disastrously. It also means that repeated use will not only result in a badly cut up hand but may also result in headaches or nausea

Due to her inherent laziness and general feeling of ‘this is all I’ll need’ when it comes to her power, alongside literally being able to summon just skeletons at this time – her current power is barely combative, simply serving as very menial labour or as some kind of mass distraction

Main Power: Necromancy
1st Branch: Complete control of personally summoned beings
2nd Branch: Able to see what any specific being does if given either a bloodless binding (Allowing the spirit to take something itself) or a binding of 200ml of blood which means that it takes several minutes and – if done several times a day, may result in lightheadedness, vomiting, and headaches.

Species Abilities: Being so connected to life and death means that Robin commonly hears the voices of spirits during her dreams, be they good or bad. This also leads to her more commonly having nightmares, sometimes resulting in regular loss of sleep.

Biography: Every person has desires, and some of those people go to more extreme lengths to obtain them. Generations ago, Robin’s great-grandfather seemingly had all someone in that time could want – wealth, influence, family. But even he went to those lengths, performing a blood ritual in an attempt to get the one thing he truly wanted. Immortality. It was thus to his surprise that his wish was granted, and being gifted with the ability to beckon spirits from the afterlife back to the physical realm. And when you’re the kind of person who will go to such lengths as performing satanic rituals to obtain something, you’re the kind of person who will abuse whatever you got for all it’s worth. He began summoning, and summoning, and summoning. Though at this time, he had not discovered the safest way to attempt the summons – and was allowing all kinds of forces into his mind. Slowly corrupting him and tearing him apart from the inside-out. More and more corruption, more summoning, unexplained deaths.

He began logging all the occurrences, all the tasks, all the consequences of using his power over many years so that he could pass on decades of knowledge to whatever family member came after him. Though the demon had granted his wish of immortality through the gift of necromancy – his flagrant use of the spirits had meant that when his body died, his soul remained on Earth.

Thus, the book descended the family. Her Grandfather ended up discovering how to more safely summon spirits – and he had learned from his predecessor to remain cautious with his use, only using it several times a week. Though unlike the Great-Grandfather, the Grandfather was not militaristic with his use of the spirits – instead confining them to simple bone bodies bound only by the temporary properties of blood when working around their family’s estate. The thing about him that was uncommon of the rest of the family from then on – is that he was not born with the power – as he was already in his early twenties when the wish was granted. Thus, he was more than likely the least powerful of all of the family – though easily the most important due to his research.

When the book was passed on to her Father, the family was already established as…not exactly right – rumours stretching back years concerning hauntings, unholy sightings, insane acts of cruelty. Now whether these were true is unknown, as they are just that – rumours. And none of the family elders will speak regarding them.

And then we finally come to Robin herself, born July 15th on an estate just outside of Wedmore, England. Born to Matt and Lucy Obvauvrius, and the eldest of 3 siblings by several years. While in her younger years she feared her family’s undead servants – she grew to understand what they were, alongside how to control them. She’d learned from a very early age the basics of necromancy, and rather than continuing on to the levels of expertise her parents and brothers were bound to take, she instead decided to remain content with the simple knowledge of binding and summoning. The relationship she had with her family wasn’t perfect. At times she despised her brother's reckless use of necromancy, at others she

Her education was the kind every person wished they had, yet everyone who had it wished they didn’t. Robin went through almost exclusively private education – shutting her off from the majority of the normal children in town. While this did help her in the long run and shape many of her current habits, Robin sometimes still wishes that she could have had the chance socialise like normal. This upbringing was primarily what led to her being so much more outgoing when at Starlight, and when in town – as it was something she was devoid of during her primary education.

It wasn’t long however because the Academy had heard of the family’s long believed history of demonology and necromancy – and after the rumour was confirmed to them that both the parents and children had the power – an invitation was promptly sent out. Her brothers refused, wishing simply to remain under the tutelage of their parents for the time being. Though Robin accepted the offer, and her departure date was planned and soon arrived. When the date finally arrived, her bags packed and mind ready – she found her parents waiting with the same, leather bound book of her grandfather. When she questioned why, her parents simply stated it was due to the rules set by her great-grandfather – who decided that it would be passed down via simple primogeniture. Due to both her moving away and being the eldest, they felt it was time to pass it on – feeling that their years of knowledge would be enough to competently recreate what the family required from it. And at the age of 16, Robin set off for the Academy, vowing to recreate herself – no longer being the recluse, but being as socially active and outgoing as possible. This was the one chance she’d get, and she took it without a second thought.
