The Beginning:

That was enough.

It was the fifth day in a row that his cousin Alex ambushed him and threw a snowball at him. Now he was going to learn!

-Don't run, Alex! I'll catch you anyway!

Vasilios made his word true and finally caught Alex. They started fighting, and Alex managed to put a nice chokehold on Vasilios.

-Al... ex... I'm... chok... ugh...

But Alex won't stop. And that's when he burst in flames.

Vasilios jumped on his feet all of a sudden, terribly frightened. What had happened?

-Alex! Alex!

He tried to help his cousin, but he wasn't able. Alex was crying in pain while Vasilios couldn't help him. He tried to go and call for help, when he noticed the smoke coming from the palm of his hand.

-Oh, no. Oh no, oh no, oh no. This can't be happening, it wasn't me. No, no, nonono.

He realised. By the time he was able to be aware of his surroundings again, Alex was burning bright and didn't move anymore. If anyone would find out, he would be dealt with as a witch. He had to flee.

All that he was able to think of was how he had wished Alex to release him, and then how hard had he wished him to burn...


Star Lovers:

-Arite, ya can board wiv us- said the captain -bu' I'm warning ya, boy: i' ain't no easy job.

-I'll work hard, cap'n.- Vasilios smiled. -Proud to belong to the Star Lovers' crew.

Some months later...

-The pirates are boardin' us! Fight fer yer lives!

Vasilios was new to this - fighting in a ship, with merciless people who really wanted to kill him. He exchanged strikes with some of the pirates, here and there, but the chaos and his inexperience finally paid off and he stumbled upon something - or someone. Prone on the ship's deck, he was trying to get up when one of the assailants noticed him and decided to finish him off. That's when he felt it again.

-Burn, bastard!

And the bastard burnt. Then Vasilios found himself in a frenzy of flame hurling, everywhere and everyone being labeled as a target, until both ships and many people were completely on fire.

-What have I done?- he thought, but there was no time for thinking. He jumped to the sea, like the few survivors of both crews, and struggled to find something to hold on to.


Adventures:

-Haelan would be glad. He wanted me to do something which could help me focus my thoughts and help others...

Vasilios thought about Haelan. He had rescued him from the sea and cared for him. He was able to notice that Vasilios needed a helping hand and a friend, and cared for him like a son. He took Vasilios with him and taught him his profession, how to chase criminals and bring them to justice. Vasilios slowly grew fond of Haelan as well, after much time without a proper family.

-I trusted him and told him what had happened, and he didn't betray me. He helped me carry on.

Haelan's trust was key for Vasilios to control his new gifts. Actually, he told Vasilios stories about people with similar gifts, who had them inherited by blood from some weird ancestor. When Haelan was required by the Parcae, Vasilios set off on a new chapter of his life, to seek answers about his possible origin.

-And that took me h-

-Hey, pal! Are you alright?

-Uh? Erm... sorry?- Vasilios answered.

-I said you can sign up here.

Vasilios signed the contract, still a bit confused. The man looked carefully at the sign, extended his hand to shake it with Vasilios and smiled.

-Welcome to our Adventurer's Company, ehm... Vasilios Teras!


Vasilios:

Vasilios is an average height guy, not very strong. He's dark haired and tan skinned, and though he is not the best speaker, he has a spark of charisma in his eyes. Though not tremendously talkative, he's usually nice and friendly, but sometimes he seems to be deeply immersed in some kind of bitter memories. Acquaintances who have happened to angry him, on the other hand, talk about a frightful expression that appears in his face, a gaze that can make even the most veteran warrior cower in fear.

Ideal: Vasilios thinks everybody has moments where they give and where they take, and that should be in balance. He believes he has taken so much, and should now give to restore that balance, so he applies his knowledge as a bounty hunter and his newly acquired gifts in benefit of those in need.

Bond: Vasilios was told many stories about sorcerous powers, but he doesn't know about his own, so he intends to find out. That would help him understand and hopefully restore his own balance. He, however, is still not prepared to come back to his family after the incident with his cousin Alex.

Flaw: Fire is strong inside Vasilios. He is usually a nice guy, but when something angers him he becomes an instrument of destruction, a walking fury of flames. Haelan helped him a lot in controlling these fits of rage, though sometimes it's incredibly difficult to stay calm.
