First topic message reminder :

Name: Petrinax Citadel
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Creature: Wizard
Race: Solarian
Allegiance: Neutral
Origins: Magic User
Powers: Toys

Available Spells:
Low lvl:
- Time to play:
Petrinax brings a toy to life. The toys have minds of their owns and cannot be controlled by anyone other than themselfs. The caster as well as the toy can however end their animation prematurely (in example to prefent detection).
The casting time varies to the size of the toy. Its longest dimention is maximum a foot in lenght. For every inch it contains a minute must be spend on casting the spell.
The caster of the spell emits a 10 meter radius aura in wich the toys can be animated indefinatly. However once they leave this zone they have a lifetime equal to double the casting time. Re-entering the aura resets the counter

Medium levels:
- It's real: make a magic-conducting gun out of a toy or miniature. Only one can be made at a time. Lasts 5 minutes and will destroy the original toy. The gun shoots no bullets but instead channels magic from the 'toy clip' spell into a pure damaging ray (or multiple ones in case of a spread weapon)

- Toy Clip: allows the caster to charge the previously created gun with one 'clip' of ammo.

- Playfull shield: creates a toy shield with an energy barrier. Either anti magic or anti physical (will be destroyed by the opposite type. His magic-barrier can be broken with a kick and the physical shield will crumble from even a low lvl spell). Lasts 1 minute and only one can be active at the same time.

- Empowered sword: grows a toy sword into full size weapon. Strenght and weight are alike to a photon blade. Duration: 5 minutes.

High lvl spell:
- Thermal Toys:
Charges a toy weapon for 2 and a half minutes to either add a chill or a heat effect.
Usable 3 times a day.

Chill: each stack slows a target.
5 stacks: uncomfortable cold
10 stacks: speed reduced by 33%.
15 stacks: one limp is frozen over. Rendering it useless (can be molten free)
20 stacks: full body-freeze.

Heat: each stack damages a target:
5: uncomfy warmth
10: exaustion and decrease in fighting spirit
15: burning sensation as if you sunbathed too long the previous day (goes along with a tan)
20: painfull first-degree burns closest to the impact points of his attacks

Each hit adds 1 stack to the target that lasts 20 seconds. Timer resets upon a new stack addition. 20 stacks is the max. Once that is reached the stacks will decay after 20 seconds.
*Note: the heat and chill effects can easely be countered with fire and ice spells. (Ice reduces/removes heat while fire reduces/removes chill)

- Fight for me: grows a miniature/toy to large size (8-10 feet) and lets the caster have full controll over it as long as it focuses fully upon it. After the caster loses focus or casts another spell the animated statue becomes unintelligent and hostile to all for 2 minutes. This controll can not be regained by the animator.
After the spell ends the statue returns to its original pose (if it wasn't destroyed)

Appearance:
Petrinax mostly dresses himself in the Zaltores wizard uniform for students. Although he mixes in a sturdy set of walking boots and trades the yellow cape for a likely colored longcoat while keeping the hood. He had dark brown hair and bright blue eyes.
A notable feature is an amulet he wears: fashioned from different materials it shows as a T in a circle.
He is nearly allways seen with a small black suitcase. Contents unkown.

Strenghts:
+ Craftfull hands: Petrinax his life long toy-intersts have made him skilled at varying crafts such as sewing, sculpting and painting.
+ [insert school name] combat training: is a decent swordplay and shot with most weapons.
+ due to his obsession with the old stories of the toy magic and its world he has great knowlage on the 'ancient' history of magical forces, cults, languages and myths.

Weaknesses:
- material components: nearly all his spells requier material compounds to be casted.
- impatient: cannot sit still or stand by doing nothing. Will be angry at anyone who lingers or delays.
- Vengefull: when he sees someone hurt another toy magic user in any way (physical, mentally or any other form of discrimination) he'll make sure that the offender will suffer for what he or she did. Usually with force.


Personality:
Petrinax personality has been mostly dictated by the way others have reacted to his magic. He greatly likes any who share the same magic but holds a grudge against those who mock them. His mind is set on a purpose to aid the toy magic users in any way possible.
On the other side he is close to giving up hope on keeping things nice and decent as he was taught. For what he has seen so far by the others is not too much decency.
Petrinax time at a toy shop made him rather fond of children, allways up to help them with finding new toys or repairing the old ones.
Thanks to his previous experiences Petrinax is slightly mistrusting to most. But if he has the impression they are not against his magic he drops the mistrust.
Furthermore Petrinax is ambitious with his plans. Loving to learn more to advance them. But if his plans are crossed or delayed by others he'll force them into frutation

Positive traits:
+ Toy pride: Petrinax will greatly approve and support anyone who shows their toy magic or states their support to the cause of a toy homeworld.
+ Obsessive mind: he can have his toughts focussed upon one purpose and will go to great extends to gain as much knowlage as he can on it.
+ protective: having loathed the treatment of toy users all over the magi-verse he now won't hesitate to step up for them all.

Negative traits:
- Fragile hopes: he really longs for a place where he is treated normally as a magic user. Not an outcast. The same with his dreams of a new Tygyot. If those are crushed or he finds them opposed he will take matters into his own hands.
- Short-tempered: he has a bit of an anger issue that result often into him getting into a fight.
- Thanks to his bad experiences with most magic users other than toy ones he allways sees them with distrust untill they showed him otherwise.

History:
Petrinax mother was a toy magic user. She hid her powers and didn't use them in fear of the scolding most others recieved. During a stay at Solaria she fell in love (and got fallen in love to) by a well-off Solarian.
A few years later Petrinax was born.

Age 4-12:
His mother told him many stories about the old world Tygyot that was now was no more and mostly urged him to keep it to himself.
He had a happy childhood, he didn't have a lot of friends but his ever faitfull companion Miemie was there for him when he was alone. His father allways laughed in a lighthearted manner at all the stories he told during dinner of the adventures they had and tought nothing of him and his plushy having the most strange adventures. He made a few friends during that time but most were send off to a magical-teaching school so he lost contact.

Age 12-18
As he grew he got raised as a scholar and took great interest into the old tomes in the Solarian libraries.
He was send to a non-magic school since he never displayed any magical aptitude. He was keeping his powers hidden for anyone but himself. Making several friends he became known for being a big egghead when if came to old myths, stories and even languages. Besides that he excelled in crafts class and even once got a price for a sculpture he made and painted.
While he spend most of his spare time in the library the remainder on his room was swallowed by his many crafting hobbies, practicing magic in private and studying tomes he (sometimes) legally borrowed from the great libraries of Solaria.
During his exam year he heard the rumour of a group trying to create a new place for toy magic users to be home at. After several complicated trips he finally found the group and joined as a member. The tought of a place to call home filled him with a purpose.

Post-graduation:
After passing his exams, with great compliments from his history and art teachers, he began to work in a toy shop. Knowing the personalities of several toys he was great at gift suggestions to whoever visited it.
In between his job he made great use of his library pass and even managed to get hold of one of an older segment of the libraries. Continuing his studies on Tygyot and the old arcane secrets for both himself as the group he became more involved with. At night he discussed the many things with his aging and now patch-work plushy.

As he works for the group he obtains a list of them of all the 'possible' toy magic users in town and uses this to invite them to secret meetings. Here he tries to tell them about the blessings of a new world for them all. After a few meetings however it goes wrong as they were waited for outside the building. Petrinax sees how the group of assailants finally flees, he himself undetected, and reccognices one of his fathers closest friends.
After the news failed to report it he inquired about the occurance with the police. They just told him there were no withnesses or any solid evidence to open a case. This was mostly due to the fact their commanding officer had a rather grudgefull look at those 'annoying good for nothing toy-whimps'
After a few days of being eaten up with anger and guilt he stepped to the police again, giving them the name of his fathers friend and the statement he had seen him beating up some of the victems. Not much later he suddenly finds himself in jail without even a propper reason. (Although the fact the head of that department being good mates with the one Petrinax reccogniced would be reason enough)
His father gets him out the same day though.
To Petrinax this was a breaking point. If the police would do nothing or even work against him he better would do things himself. The next day he would be in the jail again for charges of assault and mass damage to private propperty. (As well as the man he saw being on intensive care and a liquid diet)

After having done his time Petrinax would be far more silent at home and at work. Arranging a place at the wizard school Zaltore before leaving in the dead of the night, taking just a case full of clothing, a case of toys and his trusted plushie Miemie along. Only writing a message that he wished not to live in a city so rich of 'magists' and that he decided to go away.
Without his knowlage however Miemie had sneaked off the day before and told all his plans to his mother. Who in turn took the letter and hid it from her husband. Keeping his magic and her own still hidden from him and spinning the story that their son was away to study some old scrolls at Magix.

Available Spells:
Low lvl:
- animate toys: misclanious uses

What toys can he animate and for how long?

Worked out the low lvl spell

So I assume that no matter the amount of stacks is, it always lasts for 20 seconds. If someone was hit and Petrinax couldn't hit him after 20 seconds, all the stacks disappear, right?

Quote :

+ eye for detail: years of building and painting miniatures he gained a great eye for details.

I don't think building and making miniatures grant someone an eye for detail in anything in general; but you can reword it to he's very great in making/sculpting etc. figures.

Quote :

- Miemie: his first plushy (a hedgehog) and also the first thing he ever animated being a toy user still acompanies him. He cares greatly for the toy. So much that anyone who takes, damages or treatens it would meet a very ruthless side of him

So he's very overprotective over Miemie and can go over the board and very defensive even against the slightest mistreatment to Miemie, right?

His personality seems to be mainly about toys and his hate for others. Sure you added some positive and negative traits to be easily spotted, but please expand on him even more (whether by adding positive/negative traits or normal writing of sentences) to describe himself even more. 

Quote :

- Playfull shield: creates a toy shield with an energy barrier. Either anti magic or anti physical (will be destroyed by the opposite element). Lasts 1 minute and only one can be active at the same time.

What is the opposite element? Are you saying if the shield is magical, it can be destroyed by a physical hit and vice versa?

Frostbites: Frostbites can actually cause serious damage and can go as far as getting rid of fingers if it was severe; so you need to state it isn't as severe as real frostbites.

The burn effect: I assume the user gets a burning sensation but doesn't get an actual burn, right?

Also, you can't make someone catch fire with the 20th stack. That's too OP.

Also, how do the stacks activate? By the two-and-a-half-minute summoned sword? If so, if the sword disappears, will the stacks immediately disappear? Or will it continue to finish its 20 seconds then disappear? If he wants to reduce the heat amount or the cold amount, by how much does it become reduced? Does it affect the time limit?

How did Petrinax send toys to other toy users for a message if his controlling range isn't so far? Was he sending it to toy users close to him? How did he know these people were toy users though? Did he see the users in battle? Ask them personally? Stalk them? If the assailants did hit the others, how were there no evidence? Why the others didn't go to the police too? Were the police corrupt? Why did the police place Petrinax in jail? Did Miemie follow Petrinax to Zaltora?

Update completed

What happens if he did a 21st stack? Will there be an increase of 20 seconds, or nothing will happen, or will it completely remove all stacks?

20 stacs is the max. All it does above that is reset the timer

Given the fact that the effect lasts only for 2 and a half minute before fading, and the fact you can use it multiple times, and the fact it's a high spell, the fact that as I stated could be used of a maximum of 3 times a day Monday on Skype, you can't make the timer of the stacks reset after the 20th stack. After the 20th stack is done, you must go back to 0 stacks and can never increase the duration of the 20th stack even if 39898948 hits were achieved else that spell would be way over-powered.

Also, don't forget to expand on his personality outside of toys and his hatred. Such examples we spoke about is his love for learning, ambition, and so on.

Curses! Forgot to update it all . Done now

I'll give an approval.
