Full Name: Carlos Silva Martins
Nicknames: Carlos, Magician, anything called loudly he will semi-respond to
Age: 17 years
Gender: male
Species: Magician/ magic-using human
Abilities: he can sort of copy others’ abilities if shown how, though it will only be half as strong as the normal ability. This does not include shape shifting or anything too difficult; He is also able to create illusions, use telekinesis, and shapeshifter himself to look like other people independently from his “learning” power. Doing any of this requires mana, which doesn’t replenish until the day ends, so usually he can only use up to ten spells a day.
Sexuality: Acesexual, biromantic
Position: manor guest; he will still somewhat take care of the horses and small chores in the manner in return for staying there, but does not technically consider himself hired or a guest
Personality: Carlos is kind of the stereotypical cool and collected character, however can frequently loose this cool and become a flustered mess. He is a talented magician but doesn’t have too much confidence in his abilities and wishes to fit in. To most he is sort of an introverted guy who will help others just for the sake of it, however he can get annoyed fairly easily. Most of the time however, any emotion related to anger or frustration will end in him isolating himself and pouting, usually unconsciously causing a series of accidental mini catastrophes with his abilities. He doesn’t like standing out and isn’t a big fan of intimidating people, but loves most animals. Carlos is pretty sweet if he doesn’t think that you think he’s weird. He can also get startled pretty easily but tries to play it off as if he hadn’t been startled in the first place.
Likes: animals, horses, dogs, and cats specifically; playing music and singing; sitting in high places; reading books tucked away somewhere secret; cloaks; the aesthetic of stars, old books, and things that glow in the dark; fairytales and stories about pirates; hidden objects and passageways; libraries; discovery
Dislikes: working at the part-time job of being carpenter he had picked up since moving to the town; big spooky monsters; free falling; spells he has to memorise the words for, loud events; messy places; being dirty or sick; others thinking him strange; continuing conversations
Fears: being unable to use/losing his magic; being alone outside at night for no reason; werewolves (kind of), being an outcast; being seen as clingy
Secrets: He is a doppelgänger changling (he himself does not know this, but any that can sense a magic species might); he was born with a carved out pattern of circles and runes in his chest, which glow a varying amount of colours. He can summon a ball of light energy from his chest but he doesn’t know what it is and will never take ff his shirt because of this; he has no idea how to make a cake and at this point he’s afraid to ask

History: His family came from Brazil and moved to a bigger city nearby, where Carlos was switched at birth with a doppelgänger-changling. Since the rest of his family was human and he was... clearly not, he decided that he would try to find his identity in this city because he had heard a few things from the fae that would visit him from time to time. He claimed to be going to a boarding school but actually came upon the mansion, which is where he has stayed for the past year. Despite this, he has not gotten the chance to meet a lot of people because he is pretty shy.
Other: He has a small dog back home and misses her dearly
