<div class="floatright">(https://i.imgur.com/s36F3R3.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Michael Brightstar<br/><strong>Age:</strong>25<br/><strong>Sex:</strong>Male<br/><strong>Gender:</strong>Male<br/><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong>Heterosexual<br/><strong>Type:</strong>Shadowhunter<br/><br/><strong>Appearance:</strong>Michael is a fit male. He is 6'2" tall, and in good shape. The black colour of hunting is what he clads himself in most.<br/><strong>Faceclaim:</strong>Tom Welling<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Michael is the only son of Richard Brightstar and Sarah Starkweather. He was born and raised in Alicante. Michael counts his childhood as happy, and he has many fond memories of training with other Nephilim children and experienced Shadowhunters whom were close to his parents. Equally, he has bittersweet memories of growing close to other Shadowhunters who went out on missions and never came back, whether they were his peers or friends of the family. But this was par for the course for a Shadowhunter, and it never caused Michael to doubt what his path in life. He mourned as much as was proper, then sealed off his feelings of grief in a compartment of his mind so that they would not cloud his judgement.<br/><br/>Michael spent some time in Institutes in Spain and Italy before being assigned to Vancouver. He enjoyed his time there and grew particularly fond of the food there, often venturing from the Institutes to dine at mundane restaurants. During his time in Spain and Italy Michael dealt with many different Downworlders and had some of his prejudices challenged, although he never came to truly trust Downworlders or call any of them friends. The Law and his sacred duty prevented such closeness between himself and the Downworlders he interacted with.<br/><br/>In Vancouver Michael has acquitted himself rather well. He has many successful demon hunts under his belt, and the missions he led had few casualties - and, thus far, none of them were serious. Because he stays on the straight-and-narrow, files his reports on time and thoroughly, and abides by the rules, Michael finds himself in good standing with the head of the Institute and other authority figures.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Determined | Forthright | Honest | Obedient | Helpful<br/><br/><strong>Powers:</strong>Standard Shadowhunter abilities.<br/><strong>Abilities:</strong>Michael is ambidextrous. He knows how to wield a weapon in each hand with equal skill, and he is better at fighting than most Shadowhunters. He also has learned to fight with a weapon in each hand. He has some skill with Italian and European Spanish.<br/><strong>Equipment:</strong>Michael typically goes into battle with a pair of seraph blades, but he also carries a blessed silver dagger as a back up.<br/><br/><strong>Limitations/Weaknesses:</strong>Michael does not question authority. He<em>does</em>what he is told without thinking critically about what he<em>what</em>he is told to do. His knowledge of mundane culture is fairly minimal.<br/><br/><strong>Ons &amp; Offs:</strong>Please kindly refer to my thread.<br/><br/><strong>Character Theme:</strong>The Night Calls My Name - Lori Yates (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV-XqWpgJFk)<br/><strong>Plot Seeds:</strong>Michael's a fairly by the books type, so bending him being in good graces with the higher ups so that the wild children can get their way or get access to things they would get refused is a thing.<br/><br/><br/><div align="center">(https://i.imgur.com/UETQZky.jpg) (https://i.imgur.com/BZ1YPum.jpg) (https://i.imgur.com/DVZtN6S.jpg) (https://i.imgur.com/wHQcewe.jpg) (https://i.imgur.com/tSDKPGR.jpg)</div>
