Name: Amadeus “Time” Thaohal (or you can make it just Time Thaohal, or Time with whatever last name.

Deity of: Time and magic

Gender/Pronouns: Male, He, him.

Age: 19, almost to the minute with Chronos

Appearance & Outfit: Time stands at the height of 5’9” (that’s weird that everyone is shorter than that) and has a build that is thin, yet athletic. His skin is lightly tanned. He has very dark grey eyes that are almost impossible to differentiate than black, and the bangs of his black, slightly wavy, but mainly straight, hair are pushed to the right side, making sure his eyes are not covered by them. Time has a straight long-running scar on his right arm, running from his shoulder to the wrist. It's most of the time hidden under his coat.

Ok, since Time will be placed in a faction I guess I’ll have his appearance depend on what faction he is in. Empire: If Time is in the empire, he wears a long, white coat, with light blue accents around the cuffs, the zipper area (though it has no zippers and idk what to call it), and around the ends of the collars. Underneath he wears a contrast of black clothing and pants, as well as black shoes.

Revolutionary Army: If Time is sided with the revolutionary army, his clothing choices are mostly switched around. He wears a black coat, with dark blue details in the same areas as his empire outfit. Though the interior of his coat includes some dark fur. What he wears underneath are usually white shirts and pants. Though it’s not as surprising to sometimes see some black in place. But he still has black shoes.

On either side, Time wears a very durable golden pocket watch around his neck.

Personality: Generally, Time tries his best to be nice and helpful, in a more calm and serious way. Even though sometimes he might seem odd or not the kindest or helpful. He tries his best to not get angry or raise his voice, which he is good at? Time is smart, being able to quickly see details and learn about situations just by looking. Though Time is one that occasionally does point out the obvious, both when observing and not. Time normally is better at observing objects than people, it’s sometimes hard for him to read emotions. When Time can be an expert at analysis and other related subjects, in some areas, he can be completely clueless. One example of an area where he is very clueless is romance. As soon as romance is brought up, Time becomes very awkward and nervous, he stutters a lot as well. To be honest with you, Time is still sometimes easily flattered by compliments despite probably (maybe?) hearing a lot from other mages (maybe he just ignores or is used to compliments from mages). Time isn’t really one to get excited about things, that’s more of his twin sister, Chronos. But him being calm and serious all the time doesn’t mean that he can laugh and be happy, though he barely even smiles.

Time doesn’t often get angry at small things, but he can become enraged if something bad happens to someone or something he cares about. For people that he cares about, it doesn’t mean he’s extremely protective over them, to the point he will attempt to stop them from doing anything dangerous. He knows that they can handle themselves, it’s just that he would feel horrible to see them hurt. Plus, if anyone he cares about gets hurt, he would automatically blame himself, no matter what, he’ll find a way to do so.

Why would this character fight?: I would think Time would fight if it is required, or to stop the corruption of the empire. And he’ll definitely fight for his sister and ones he cares about. Though he tries to retain from killing, but at the same time, not make it a weakness for him when fighting, such as he’ll fight with the same power as others, but won’t really deal the final blow, because when he sees the opponent, he thinks of all the things behind them, or the ones who love them and such, though if he is certain that his opponent is evil, he will kill. He will also kill to gain revenge for ones he cares about, or if he's in a rage of some sort. But Time will for a fact will NOT fight his sister, as she will not fight him.

Teigu (Name, Appearance, Abilities Granted, Limitations):

Bastions of Light: Ars Imperatoria is Time’s teigu. It takes the form of two dark blue gauntlets, with one circle on each palm and back of the hand, in these circles are softly glowing light teal stones. The main ability of the Ars Imperatoria is the ability to summon “warriors” to do one’s bidding. These warriors seem to be glowing figures of turquoise light, but they don’t glow too bright. There are five different warriors, I’ll describe each one below. The Watcher: The Watcher is a small, buglike figure, probably as big as a large beetle, with a big, orb that acts as an eye. It’s glow isn’t as noticeable as the others. The Watcher can fly, and it’s camera eye can zoom in on things. Time can “see” through the magic eye, so The Watcher is great for recon. Though the watcher can fly and is fast, it doesn’t have any true offensive capabilities (besides Time having it slam into enemies or grapple onto their face).

The Guardian: The Guardian is a large humanoid figure standing at 7 feet tall, seeming to resemble a knight in heavy armor with a helmet that fully covers the head. It’s glow is definitely brighter than the others, on its arms, It has two shields equipped, and these shields are fairly durable. The Guardian’s primary use is for blocking and defending and taking hits. Though it’s large size causes The Guardian to be slower than the others, it is still fast enough to keep up with others in the fight.

The Swordsman: This warrior definitely is what they sound like. A swordsman. The Swordsman stands at the same height as Time, maybe a bit taller, maybe 5’10” or 5’11” The swordsman seems to have light armor shaped around it, as well as a helmet that covers the entire head, like The Guardian. The Swordsman also, of course, has swords. It has two on it’s back. One hand and a half sword, and one two-handed sword. Time can choose which sword the swordsman uses but most of the time it’s choice is automatic. The swordsman also has a backup dagger equipped on it’s waist. The swordsman is mainly used for offensive close combat. The downfall of The Swordsman though is, of course, it’s horrible at ranged combat, and it doesn’t have as much resistance as the guardian.

The Archer: The Archer is, an archer (wow.) The Archer is equipped with a cloak with the hood on. It has a quiver of arrows on its back that seems to almost never run out. The Archer also has a bow (wow part two). The Archer, since it’s head isn’t fully covered like the others, shows that it has no face. The Archer is used for range combat. But The Archer can not fight up close, or else it will be cut to shreds if caught off guard up close, it also has zero armor and defensive capabilities (though of course, it can still attempt to block with it’s bow or whatever)

The Huntsman: The Huntsman is more of a trapper than a fighter, someone that uses more stealth. The Huntsman has a less of a glow, like The Watcher. The Huntsman wears a cloak, but it has no hood like the archer and instead, has “fur” within. The Huntsman can deploy traps of all kinds, bear traps, dart traps, spear traps, anything. Of course, the Huntsman’s traps require planning ahead to set up. But the Huntsman isn’t entirely armless, it has a small saber, that can be used for silent kills and finishing off victims caught in traps. The Huntsman is primarily used by Time for setting up traps/ambushes and stealth. If found out during stealth, the Huntsman will have problems fighting off it’s attackers, as it is not as versed in open combat without stealth or the enemy having a disadvantage (such as being wounded by one if of it’s traps). Without planning behind it, or the advantage of stealth cloaking it, the Huntsman is basically useless.

Ok, so for all the clothing and equipment of the warriors, they all glow the same color as the wearer. It also seems that all of the warriors are actually not made up of light, but some sort of durable material. Also, all of them have no faces or details unless I've described it so. They all seem like blank figures. Ars Imperatoria’s minions/warriors do have a few downfalls though, Only one warrior can be out at a time (or two if not that op) and the warriors can be completely destroyed, and when so, they can not come back. But they can be almost destroyed and slowly regenerate after, putting them out of commission for a while. Another flaw that Ars Imperatoria has is that if Time wishes to switch out a warrior, it can not be until three minutes until he makes a switch. (or should it be shorter? or longer?)

When summoning or casting away a warrior, the warrior will glow a brighter turquoise, and with a flash of light, they’ll disappear, the same with summoning, a flash of light, and then they are there. A warrior can be summoned in a radius of 20 feet away from Time. Though they can travel much farther than 20 feet to combat others. When warriors are being summoned or summoned away, The stones on Time's gauntlets glow brightly, as well when the teigu's warriors are in action. Oh, also when the Huntsman is summoned away, it’s traps are still left behind.

The warriors, when in their area of expertise, It seems they are masters of their art. For example, The Swordsman seems that they can expertly handle another enemy, teigu or not (without a teigu much easier). Or The Archer seems to have great aim and can snipe people far away. Or the Guardian is extremely good at…. guarding things. Of course, Time can go into even more detail and directly command the warrior’s movements, as he does for more serious situations where he requires them to be more careful, but that requires more focus put onto them.

The warriors are extremely loyal to Time, as they will do anything for him. And Time can use his mind to command them, and their reaction time to Time’s commands is almost instant as if they are an extension of his body. But when directing them, Time sometimes does arm and finger movements, like a puppeteer.

If Time doesn’t have a warrior next to him, he’s wide open, so that’s why he tries to learn close handed combat. Luckily, his gauntlets can make his punches hurt more. Time also tries to be strategic with his teigu, so he doesn't fail and victory is his largest outcome. Like he sends out The Watcher to observe and take notes on his enemies, and then The Huntsman to prepare traps, and when enemies fall into these traps, he'll have The Archer to snipe them down from a safe distance. I don't know if that was a good example of a strategy of some sort. But it can be hard doing strategies with only one warrior out at a time, so that's why I'd thought it would be possible for two warriors at a time, if it isn't op.

Backstory: Since I don’t know what side he’ll be on, I’ll make sure that it’s open enough for both sides. Time and Chronos were both born into a prestigious and rich family of the Empire. But what they didn’t know is that their family was very corrupt. Eventually, the family’s corruption was found out by Night Raid, or the Empire, or both, and most of them were executed. But some were spared because they were found innocent, yet they were actually able to still hide their corruption. While Time and Chronos were also spared, they realized that the other surviving members also were corrupted. Everyone in the Family was corrupted except for them. The surviving members also knew that Time and Chronos knew, and punished them often to keep them quiet. Because of their knowledge and horrible family, this caused them to run away and escape to join the Revolutionary Army, or caused them to join the Empire, or they both decided to split ways and join whichever faction. No matter which way they pick, they choose it to fight corruption, whether it be from the inside with the Empire, or head on with the Revolutionary Army.

What side would you want this character to be on?: I’m not exactly sure, tbh, go ahead and slap him somewhere.

What job do you see this character having?: I’m not exactly sure again. But he could possibly be a reconnaissance soldier, but I’m kinda seeing him most likely as a commander or a strategist or something, for either side. But if you're talking about a normal job...idk.

Other: idk… my fist. Oh, and for Time, I'm totally cool with you angsting him up. much angst.
