-Training & Experience-
As a member of the Clan Hayden Twilight received an intensive mental, spiritual, and physical development. [See Blaire Hayden's profile and abilities for further reference] His specialty deigned six months after his advanced older brother, Illusory magic. Over the next four years he attained an affinity with illusions, and had vigorously analyzed all possible texts of which he could attain knowledge on his preferred school of magic, including at one point in his education he broke into the advanced scrolls restricted to the elders of the clan and copied out nearly the entire collection with a memorization spell. He escaped undetected, if he were caught however. He'd have been banished for his crimes, and stripped of the ability to work magic. At the age of 12, immensely enraged that his brother had advanced at a much more impressive rate than he, and had been a disciple of their great-grandfather the eldest living clan member for an entire year despite his age. Twilight ran away, severing all ties with his family. For several years Twilight lived in the streets of Durem, using his developed abilities to steal the secret techniques of many a hidden clan, and selling them to the highest bidder[after copying them into his own private collection of course]. At the age of fifteen, he met a mysterious stranger. Having showed up in a time of dire need, when he had been trapped in an alley by a platoon of dark elves who had beaten him near death. The figure had beaten of the drow gang and brought Twilight to his underground fortress. Where he healed his wounds and revived his spirit. Befriending the man very fast as this was the first act of kindness he had received for who knew how long, he became his disciple... Now nine years later, Twilight is exponentially stronger than he was when Blaire had last seen him. With the powers of the undead to back up his formidable repertoire, his brother would have a surprise coming his way.

-Arcane Bloodline-
[See Blaire Hayden's profile]
As a Hayden descendant, Twilight's affinity with the planes and sources of magic are stronger than wold be in an ordinary person. This is closely tied with the genetic trait of a powerful aura. Through personal energy expenditure, the Hayden's are able to work magic with ease. Very 'Sorcerous' in nature.

-Spellwork-
Twilight's energy used for spellwork is derived directly from his personal spirit energy. Measured in a 300/300 gauge. His familiars[Zory] life energy can be used when necessary, measured as 150/150. Spell cost varies with effect, typically minor spells consume a mere 1% of energy, whereas greater spells can use up to multiple hundreds. His specific spellwork is closely tied with the psychic strength of the individual. In those with a strong line of experience in mental combat, are typically unphased by his lesser spells of illusion. Those with none, are obviously the most vulnerable. Those without a consciousness, such as robotics, are unaffected by his mind-manipulating magic.

[::Tattoo's of Rite::]
-Rite of The Demon-
A thick jagged black line extending from the right corner of his mouth to the back of his cheekbone one inch before his ear. Effects are passive and doesn't require an input of energy, merely the release of energy in general. Spells of level V and less require a mere 1% energy. Effects of spells are magnified as though released with the raw sources of power possessed by the higher demons of the lower planes.

-Rite of The Demi-God-
Adornment over right eye, arrows pointing up and out, with a line of power below his eye from the corner over the front of the cheekbone. Twilight's triangular pupil is a result of the tattoo's power. It allows him true sight at all times. Specifically spiritual presences/auras/theatrics are seen with clarity. Living spirits still upon the earth are open books before his gaze.

If spiritual energy is focused into the line of power[10%], the unraveled 'S' below the eye, the arrows may be accessed. Their effects and descriptions are as follows;

Vertical Arrow - Matter displacement location. When the top arrow is activated, the triangular pupil contracts, the corners stretching towards each other, loosely forming the universal symbol for radioactive. Sight in this form still includes spirits and auras, but also areas of space occupied by matter cloaked to the unaided eye.[2% per turn]

Horizontal Arrow - Perception mastery. When the left arrow is activated, whether the vertical arrow is activated or not, the pupil begins to rotate clockwise to the viewer, counter- from his point of view. This version of vision allows Twilight to speed up his perception to the point where seemingly impossible dodges can be made. His range extends to the point of those who move at the speed of light. This however does not attribute Twilight with impossible speed. Merely extended reaction time.[3% per turn]

-Rite of The Undead-
Directly on the center of his chest lies a bold 'X' with flared ends, amidst the spaces between the lines, are line-work triangles pointing inwards. Upon activation, Twilights' body literally dies. However, his spirit is blocked from escape by the tattoo seal. Causing dramatic results. Including;

The ability to ignore/block pain. No longer requires the benefits of the circulatory and respiratory systems. Can continue fighting despite mass bodily damage. Total elimination requires the obliteration of his brain. Otherwise, as long as his soul seal is intact, he may simply be resurrected with the simplest of Necromantic revival techniques.
