<div align="center"><span class="bbc_u">The Person</span></div><br/><strong>Name:</strong>James Callahan<br/><strong>Age:</strong>25<br/><strong>Nationality:</strong>American<br/><strong>Day job:</strong>Stage Magician<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>James is the constant showman trying to always one up the competition but at the same time entertain. He is a hard worker and always trying to push his craft, nearly obsessed with being the best. He is a nice guy who is always trying to help. At times he can come off as arrogant and cocky but that's because his personality really lends to his stage presence. He loves to read and to travel and to learn as much as possible. James is very friendly and enjoys meeting new people.<br/><br/><strong>Backstory:</strong>James comes from a family of entertainers. His mother was a singer and his father an acrobat. However James wanted to chase own path he wanted to entertain in away no one one in his family had ever entertained before he wanted to do magic. James spent most of his life on the road but it was times where he would hone his craft, reading every magic book he could find, learning tricks, and even opening for his mother and fathers shows with his own magic act as "The Amazing Callahan."<br/><br/>Eventually James would attract the attention of a Vegas Casino owner looking for an nightly act. He would hire "The Amazing Callahan" to preform at his casino. Originally he was billed as the opener but James worked his way up and soon was the headlining act. He would amaze crowds of thousands and never ceased to come up with a trick that seemed beyond explanation.<br/><br/>James loved his act but wanted to make it better. It led him to research all sorts of magical books. Yet none of these magical books seemed to house anything real. None of them led to an answer he was hoping, to find real magic. The research though painstaking and always disappointing would consume his life.<br/><br/>It wasn't until the night when world watched as the battle between Iron General and Starman reached epic proportions when things would change. Like many he watched the clash on his TV as the battle played out before all mankind. During the fight he'd would notice a book he had never seen before, a book he swore he didn't own, and yet it was there. Obsessed with his quest he grabbed the book and watched the TV. Reading the book he would begin to mouth the words in the book aloud and then felt a strange sensation wash over him. The next thing he knew he was there at the battle site standing next to the seven.<br/><br/><strong>Appearance:</strong><br/><div align="center"><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://famewatcher.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Ben-Hill-for-Ramsey-Fall-Winter-2010-MaleModelSceneNet-041.jpg)</div></div></div><div align="center"><span class="bbc_u">The Hero<span class="bbc_u"></span></span></div><br/><strong>Codename:</strong>Xantos (Or as some call him "The Magnificent Xantos")<br/><strong>Powers:</strong>All of Xantos' powers are magic based and as he works as an hero he is learning more. Here they are thus far.<br/><br/>Teleportation: Xantos can teleport from destination to destination instantaneously. He can also teleport objects and people.<br/><br/>Deflection: Xantos can use his magic to deflect objects such as bullets, missiles, grenades, arrows, etc..<br/><br/>Water, Wind, Fire: Xantos can manifest and control these elements to an extent.<br/><br/>Magical Detection: He can detect magical objects.<br/><br/>Levitation: He can levitate himself, objects, and people.<br/><br/>Magical Blast: This is your typical "energy blast" type attack except its magic in origin.<br/><br/>Live Freeze: With some people (not all and mostly "normal people") Xantos can freeze them in their tracks.<br/><br/>Transformation: With some things Xantos can change them into other things. For example if a sword is pulled on him he can change it into a handful of snakes. (This doesn't always work.)<br/><br/>Healing: He can heal himself magically to an extent (if he's badly wounded he is unable to do so.)<br/><br/><strong>Weakness:</strong>Physic attacks can paralyze him since he wont be able to think of the magic he needs to do, necromancy and dark magic in general slows him down, also he has difficulty with beings that are magical in nature (Such as Elves, and Fairies)<br/><strong>Skills:</strong>Intelligent, Fast Learner, Knowledge of Ancient Languages, Can understand magical elements, slight of hand, a very good illusionist<br/><strong>Special Equipment:</strong><br/><br/>The Wand of Ages: His own wand that seemed to be rejuvenated with power the night magic became real. It has been known to have a somewhat mind of its own at times of extreme peril, casting random protection spells, or telephoning him from danger. Other then that its pretty much a stage wand.<br/><br/><strong>Costume:</strong><div align="center"><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://www.deviantart.com/download/101160630/WIP__Tuxedo_Mask_Cosplay_by_chioky.jpg) </div></div></div>In addition to this he wears a white domino mask over his face and usually has a top hat with a red band.
