Seth Fontaine

Seth Fontaine is a Breton Sorcerer and swordsman. He is born into a privileged childhood, being the son of Raphael Fontaine, the Commander of the Royal Guard. His sister is Sariel Fontaine.

Biography
Seth is part of a necromancer-sorcerer family, being the son of the last male line descendant of the family, the Battlemage Raphael Fontaine. He was taught since young the art of wielding a sword and learnt some magic as a child.

Other than fighting, Seth was educated in the arts, sciences and some elements of politics and warfare. His learning covered a bit of everything, and for certain subjects, he knows a great deal. He enjoys some sports.

Seth is able to apply what he learns for practical purposes, such as his intimate knowledge of anatomy for determining which is the best part of a human body to cut off in combat.

Personality and Appearance
Seth, unlike his father, has a rather average personality for a teenager, being rather rebellious at times, except he is somewhat more hardworking and driven than most. He strives for excellence and generally attempts to top any class he is in, although he's not always successful.

Seth is generally pleasant to his friends and relatively well mannered when the situation calls for it, although swearing and cursing are not below him. He's rather selective about choosing friends, though.

Seth looks relatively young, although he looks slightly older than his age, with a clean shaven face. His eyes are blue and they glow in the dark. He has long, straight black hair that has a long fringe.

Powers and Abilities
Seth is a relatively good fencer and unarmed fighter, with above average strength and stamina for a person of his age, due to intensive training. Still, he isn't quite the perfect fighter his father is, and is rather average in terms of skill when ranked among skilled swordsmen.

Seth is also a budding sorcerer who can perform electrokinesis naturally due to his ancestry, allowing him to fire lightning bolts from his hands that deal good damage. However, other than offense, Seth has not found any other use for his lightning based abilities. Seth also has the ability to call upon dark magic, taught to him by his uncle Samael. This lets him fire crystal blasts and channel his stamina for healing purposes.

Seth possesses the ability to produce photons, then collimate them into razor sharp blades of light, that can deal heavy damage to anything. He needs to swing something to use these blades, though, either by swinging his hand or his sword. The power of the blade is proportional to the magicka spent on creating it.

Seth possesses extreme mental discipline and can reject illusions/mind control with ease, due to intense mental training when he was a child. Seth, as part of the Fontaine bloodline, will eventually stop aging and is biologically immortal.
