Personal Information
Name: Torin Vexx
Alias(es): Dr. Magic (Many of his patients call him that as a joke)
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Race: Human (Witch)
Pitch: Dr. Vexx is extremely good at his job. Coming from a long line of world renowned doctors, the Vexxes are known for healing patients even in extreme and dire conditions. Some might even say… it’s like magic.
Genre:
Affiliations: The Eye (informally), Himself
Background:
Torin’s has always had two sides to him, the side he shows his family and the side that is truly Torin. His family were always extremely proper and frankly stuck up in his opinion. They were too stuff and formal with everything. However, to prevent being judges and/or disowned, he played along. Around his family he was always proper, kind, studious, and graceful. As soon as their back were turned, however, he was a somewhat rude, loud, excitable, and outspoken kid who was rather anti-social and would much rather be in his room playing videogames instead of anything he may have been doing at the time.
Even from a young age, he Torin was always look towards the future. He was never that into his studies, only making sure to be top of his classes because he knew it was expected of him. He was interested in medicine and healing from a young age, but only because he knew it could land him a well paying career that would let him travel and invest in his hobbies one day.
Not that the topics he studied weren’t interesting at all, but it all just came naturally to him. He was a bit of a prodigy. Having parents so obsessed with studies that he was constantly surrounded by medicine and magic to the point that he was listening to healing spells as lullabies as an infant had quite a heavy impact on him. To his parents and extended family everything about him seemed perfect, except for one major flaw that he couldn’t hide no matter how hard he tried.
Torin knew his parents excepted a lot of things. The stressed the study of sexuality and gender as an important part of medicine. However, at age 13 he learned that there was one thing they didn’t believe could possibly exists; that was the idea of being asexual or aromantic. To them, people are naturally social and sexual. The idea that someone could actively be born with no drive to reproduce made no sense to them, as that is how a species survives. This was the answer he was given when he stumbled across the terms in a medical journal and asked his parents about it. Unfortunately for Torin, he was both. He knew it from the moment he read the definitions. He knew he had to hide it from his family. Who knew what they would do to him if they found out he wasn’t as perfect as they thought.
When he turned 17 his family started to notice that he still didn’t seem interested in dating. At first, they thought he was a late bloomer, but when he turned 21 and still hadn’t dated anyone they started to worry. They made this worrying very apparent too. His mother, Karina, started setting him up on blind dates. The first two or three he didn’t really care, but after it got to be once a week he began to really despise talking to his mother for any period of time as it was a topic that was bound to be brought up. He has no interest in his mother’s dating games. His father, Gilbert, didn’t make it any better as he agreed with pretty much everything Karina said like a loyal dog.
At 25 his mother started trying to put him with men, women, and everything in between thinking maybe she hadn’t succeed before because she was only trying women. The first victim of this was one Magnus Teigan Zaire N’Dare-Waincroft. All he knew about the guy going into it was that he had a rather messy break up a year or two prior to their meeting, and that he came from another prestigious family of witches. The other man’s mother apparently knew his own from the magic academy they had both gone to. Apparently, she was also worried about her son after what had happened to him and thought perhaps getting back in the game would help. Frankly, he didn’t care.
The women had arranged to meet each other at Ms. N’Dare’s home for tea; and said she would bring her son with her and that the other witch should do the same. Torin was sure to be extremely kind, polite, and courteous as always when the mothers were around. However, as soon as they left the men alone in the study to get to know each other while they caught up, the act dropped. He scowled at the door before turning his attention to the man and giving the pitch he had come up with after the first few blind dates. Basically, he explained his situation; that he was ace/aro and couldn’t let his family know, that he wouldn’t mind faking it with him if he would go along with it, and that if they did start “dating” he honestly didn’t care what Magnus did as it was only to get his family off his back. The man rejected his offer, but seemed to not mind the real Torin at all. They didn’t hit it off romantically (obviously) or as “business partners” as Torin had put it. Instead, Torin had managed to find his first real, close, lifelong friend.
Today, Torin is a world renowned doctor just like his father and generations of Vexxes before him. He travels the world helping people in need (and helping himself to the life of an eternal tourist). He’s formed his home base, however, became Magnus’s place in Buster City. He isn’t there often, but he crashes on Magnus’s couch whenever he happens to be in town. He had also gifted Magnus a magic pendant that can be used to open a portal directly connecting the two men no matter how far apart they are. It can only be used once a month, so Magnus and uses a lot of magic from both men, so they know not to use it willy-nilly. If the half were-wolf is ever in serious trouble, he knows who to call. Seems he needs him more often these days too. He’s befriended some Elf girl and has gotten involved in some strange business. Torin doesn't know what it is, and frankly doesn’t care. If he’s called on for help, he shows up no questions asked. Somewhere deep down under the selfish nature of the traveling gamer doctor he does care deeply for his friend, and is ready and willing to heal him and his companions at any point.
Appearance
Profile:
Description: Torin keeps his blonde hair smooth and silky at all times. When doing procedures he pulls it back in a short ponytail and uses clips to hold it back out of the way. He’s pretty short, around 5”3, with fair skin and Shining gold eyes that feel as thought they could stare into one's soul. He keeps himself in good shape by working out 5 days a week, so he has a very slim and fit body. He has tattoos on his back, chest, arms, and the top of his hands of various magic circles and runes that help him with his magic. (He plays it off with normal people by saying they were just some cool wiccan things he found in books.)
Abilities
Gear
Doctor’s Bag: Filled with all his equipment for house calls, both magical and not.
• This is also where he keeps his portable office; small pill-like objects that grow into a full surgery area when magic is added to them. This includes the table and all of the necessary tools. They are a one time use item that is a Vexx family specialty. They take a good chunk of his magical energy to create, and he has spend a full day recuperating after, but once made it only take a small amount activate it. He also needs to have all of the things available, as he is basically just spending a bunch of magic to compact everything into the pill. That said, he only has one that he keeps with him, and he doesn’t like using it. It is only for emergencies.
Portal Pendant to Magnus Can be used once a month by either holder of the pendants to form a portal that leads to whoever is holding the connected pendant.
Abilities:
Healing Magic: The Vexx family have focused all of their magical expertise into the art of healing. Most if not all of them aren’t exactly meant to fight, so the stay out of any affairs that could take a turn for the violent. However, what they lack in offense and defense they completely make up for with support and healing. All spells must be down verbally with full incantations, so they all take at least 5 minutes to cast.
Spells
• Cure Wounds: Heals someone he is touching of any physical injuries. Depending on how much magic he uses he can heal anything from minor injuries to broken bones or ruptured organs. It does not work on illnesses, poisons, or any other conditions that may have inflicted the targets aside from physical injuries.
• Healing Word: Heals someone he is touching of any minor illness that may be afflicting them. Does not work on anything chronic or life threatening.
• Detect Poison and Disease: Allows Torin to detect and understand any illnesses that may be ailing the target. Does not detect injuries.
• Purify Food and Drink: Any food or drink within a 5 foot radius is purifies. Any poison or magic of ill intent is removed from it. Does not work on rotten or moldy food as it is something that grew there naturally.
• Aid: Torin can magically aid up to three people by making them more durable for up to 8 hours. They can take more blows than they usual would before going down. The amount of magic he pours into the spell determines how much more durable they become. If he’s doing it to more than one person, he can’t use its full effects.
• Calm Emotions: Within a 10 foot radius, Torin forms a calming energy that causes everyone in the area to be flooded with calmness and serenity. Wiser targets with high will power may be immune to this spell.
• Protection from Poison: Torin can touch someone and grant them immunity to all venoms and poisons for one hour.
• Greater Restoration: When Torin touches them he dispels any hexes, curses, or otherwise magical ailments that may have been cast on the target
• Heal: One person that Torin can see is healed of any minor injuries.
• Regenerate: If someone gets a limb severed, so long as he has the limb and it has been less than one hour, Torin can reattach it.
• Mass Heal: Torin’s most powerful spell. In exchange for all of his magic he fully heals anyone within a 30 foot radius of any injuries or illness that have befallen them. He passes out immediately afterwards and stays out for a solid week.
