Cove Astarion

Archaeologist/Explorer

---

A fisher's son who grew up in the town of Astor's Faire and named after the river leading into the sea. He lives for adventure and wants to explore both the sea and land while finding archaeological sites.

Background

Cove was born in Astor's Faire near where the river empties out into the sea and his parents named him after the river they so loved. For most of his life, Cove was absolutely besotten with anything to do with the sea. He loved to go out and swim in the ocean, play, and look for seashells. His father owned a fishing boat he would regularly take out to bring in fish to sell to the town and Cove would always beg his father to board the fishing boat. Whenever possible, Cove was always by the ocean, and one could barely take him elsewhere. One could almost say that the youth was bound to the rippling waters he was named after. One day while fishing, his father's boat scored a rock while he and his son were out at sea and sent most of the men running for safety. While everyone else on the boat had managed to save themselves, Cove went missing and many believed him dead. It wasn't until he came back two weeks later swimming to shore that he seemed to be "off." Out in the depths of the ocean he bonded with a water spirit which was always supposed to be his "other half" and now he had been made whole. It was then his desire to explore the sea and land both and to learn more about people's pasts was born in him. He wanted to learn if there were others like himself.

ABILITIES

Magic: Healing - Enhanced Level

Cove has the ability to tap into his spiritual essence to heal others. He is able to do this at Enhanced level, restoring even serious injuries in a fairly short span of time if he concentrates. Injuries that might have taken days or weeks to heal will instead be healed in minutes or hours at most. With sufficient time and effort, he can completely erase scars and even restore lost limbs or the like.

Magic: Water Magic - Enhanced Level

Cove can control and manipulate water in limited fashions, such as causing it to move objects, pushing or pulling them, and it can also make surfaces slippery, be used to deflect blows, or just shaped and made to flow in various useful ways. He can usually sense and locate water even from a distance, cause it to well up from underwater sources, and so forth. He can also dive and breathe freely underwater.

ADVANTAGES

Water

He is at his best when he is near a substantial source. He can heal both himself and others if need be and can use his magic to defend himself as well as attack others.

WEAKNESSES

Attacking

Cove is not an offensive character and even with his magical abilities, attacking others is not his strong suit.

Water

Being a creature of water, he is not strong when he is not near a substantial source. He can go away from it, but the further away he us the more he has to rely on his physical prowess rather than his magic.
