(Actias: a genus of moth Mortem: Latin for death)
Blood colour: Green #007d02
Gender: Male
Symbol: Kneph (breath of life)
Personality: Actias is rather shy and has a profound fascination with death. He has a growing collection of dead things he's gathered on trips with Mothdad. Death isn't exactly hard to come by on Alternia, but he seems to have a particular knack for discovering it. Since he spends a lot of his time with dead things he hasn't quite learned how to interact with live things yet. Sometimes he thinks the dead are better. They never judge you and they are always right where you left them!
When he does find himself among company he has a hard time getting the words to come out for proper communication. So when he's with others he's more of an observer and listener.
Strengths:
-Beautician
O.K. So having a pile of rotting body parts isn't very appealing to look at, is it? Actias has the talent to give it a flair. A couple flowers here, a few shiny rocks there, and viola! You have a lovely display! Give him a little time and he can fix anything up.
-Devoted
Actias will put his all into anything he deems worthy and he'll stick to it through thick and thin. You won't find him giving up hope or losing interest.
-First Aid
Actias has the basic knowledge of sewing up a wound or setting a bone with his work on corpses. He's fairly confident treating a living being wouldn't be much different! Maybe a little noisier...
Flaws:
-Creepy
Actias often forgets that not everyone shares his love for the dead. He'll make remarks about what a beautiful body you'll leave behind or he'll try to show off his collection of of skulls.
-Obsessive
Things have to be just so for Actias. He'll toil away at something until it is perfect and will not appreciate being disturbed.
-Babbler
He's not too good with his words and trips over his own tongue a lot. When you get him talking he doesn't quite now when he's supposed to stop so he'll keep going. This is why he normally opts to keep his mouth shut.
Weapon: Rapier
Appearance: Black button-up shirt, gray slacks, yellow sneakers, long green scarf, short flippy hair with side-swept bangs, horns shaped like moth antennas.
Home: suburb
Lusus: Mothdad is a giant Luna Moth. He helped hone Actias death finding skills, leading his charge to some body he senses. Normally he's pretty docile, but when he gets upset Actias has learned to just shine a light on him until he calms down.
Power: N/A
