In-Depth Info With a little magic and a lot of love... BACKGROUNDOnce upon a time, the Earth was filled to the brim with magic...until almost all of it was used up. To protect what little magic remained, the Dragon King sacrificed his draconic form to trap the remaining magic in a well. He then proclaimed his family to be its protectors. Magic still ebbs and flows, but the King's descendants keep careful watch and control over how much magic is allowed out into the world. As a result, magic is much harder to grasp than it once was and its presence in the world has diminished. Magical beings are rare and tend to build their lives around magical hotspots, and people with the ability to use magic are few and keep their powers secret. The Shen family are descendants of the Dragon King and are the current protectors of the well. Once every generation, someone from the family is chosen by the well as its protector. They're identified by the current protector through a shared dream, after which the chosen person gains extraordinary powers. Jinhai's father, Zhihao (Zhi), was chosen as the well's protector initially, but his older brother grew jealous and had him cursed and then later attacked. The curse made Zhi's powers both unstable and dangerous, which meant he was no longer fit to remain as the well's next protector, leaving his elder brother to take over the position. Not long after, Zhi was attacked by the men his brother hired and barely escaped with his life. Realizing he wouldn't be safe with his family, he fled to America where he met and fell in love with a woman named Alyssa and started a family. Unbeknownst to him, she was descended from a clan of phonixes that had once helped the Dragon King seal away the world's magic. Jinhai was their first born.
PERSONALITYThis is a work in progress, but I've put bullet points below with some basics about his personality.
ABILITIESJinhai is able to make anything he paints, draws, or otherwise creates real. He's unable to create people (If he tries, they're basically mannequins that can follow instructions for a short while before disappearing). He also can't create anything that's too large, as the magic required would put too much strain on him. The first thing he ever created with his abilities was a German Shepherd he named Yina. She's able to change sizes at will and is the only thing with sentience that he's managed to create successfully (he chalks it up to the boundless imagination of childhood, since he was six at the time). Yina doesn't seem to age, so he jokingly calls her his immortal dog. EXTRALorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec vestibulum purus ligula, quis tincidunt dolor placerat quis.
