OVERALL!?! - Devon has always had a sense of humor and he greatly appreciates a good joke. He is extremely sarcastic and enjoys poking fun at others… and himself as well. He’s always had a wicked mouth and it gets him into a fair amount of trouble. He can be witty at times, but mostly just says whatever he‘s thinking at the time. It’s a very rare occurrence when he doesn’t have something to retort with, and when he doesn’t he can usually cover it up pretty well. He has a difficult time shutting his mouth sometimes, and has been known to offend people often. He’s a big fan of any sexual related jokes and enjoys shooting them out in the most awkward of circumstances.
Devon has always liked to be the one in charge, and actually has some decent leadership skills. He’s very intelligent and is beyond willing to take risks. He cannot stand being below anyone and taking their shit, so being in the lead is the only way to go. At times he can rush into things and make stupid mistakes, but that doesn‘t happen frequently. These types of incidents are almost certainly a direct result of Devon‘s severe lack of patience. Even if he has an unlimited amount of time, he hates standing still or moving slowly. When in a bad mood, Devon is usually very quiet and snaps easily. If it's a very bad day, he'll get angry at the smallest things… it can get a little comical
Devon has always been a very adventurous man who likes to explore places and try new things. He's a risk-taker and never backs down from a challenge. He's a fun person to be with and he isn't boring. You're guaranteed a good time when hanging out with him. Devon is very opinionated and almost always speaks his mind. He can be pretty impatient at times and sometimes this can be a real flaw, but he tries his hardest to keep his impatience down. Devon has no problem with manipulating things to get what he wants, and does it more frequently than he would admit. He’s a natural born liar, and lies about even the most trivial things just to make people squirm.
Now, all of the previously listed personality traits make Devon a pretty average guy… there’s only one catch: he’s a homicidal warlock with a strong urge to steal powers from good witches. Despite this very small and trivial fact, Devon likes to lead a fairly normal life. Not normal life as in he doesn’t use magic often (he uses magic for practically everything), but normal life as in he doesn’t live in the underworld and doesn’t stake out alleys. For the most part he doesn’t even kill people. Sure, if someone’s getting on his nerves, or if he’s hunting a witch, the victim is dead… but he doesn’t kill randomly (at least not often). As long as people leave him alone, they’ll probably be safe. He picks his battles, and has a good sense of the bigger picture, rather than killing aimlessly.

EYES!?! - Green
HAIR!?! - Dark Brown - Short - Messy
FACE!?! - Caucasian
BODY!?! - 6’2 - Muscular
UNUSUAL!?! - scars, piercings, abnormalities
OVERALL!?! - Devon has dark brown hair of medium-short length. It is normally a little bit spiked in the front, but at times decides to lay flat. Devon doesn’t really have a particular “style” to his hair. It is usually a little messy, but still casual. He tried to gel it once... and let's just say it didn't work out too well. Besides his hair, one of the first things that you will notice about Devon are his dark green eyes. Not only are they his most distinctive trait, but they’re also the only thing he physically shares in common with his father. Devon Ackland stands at about six feet, two inches tall and weighs quite a bit. He is very in shape due to a variety of different exercises and has a well toned body. Devon's skin is lightly tanned. He isn't pale but isn't on the dark side of caucasian either. He's dark enough to be healthy looking, but not much darker than that. Devon most often dresses in dark colors and it is a very rare occasion when you will see him in bright colors. He much prefers neutral tones. Devon doesn't really spend too much time on style and dresses casually but nicely. He can mostly be seen wearing dark jeans, solid color shirts (long sleeve or short sleeve), and sometimes a jacket depending on the weather.
MOTHER!?! - Samantha Ackland, Deceased.
FATHER!?! - Spencer Ackland, Deceased.
SIBLINGS!?! - None.
OTHER RELATIVES!?! - None.
IMPORTANT!?! - Alicia Belmont, Partner in Crime, Evil
FINALLY!?! - Devon grew up in the ever exciting town of Bend, Oregon, where activity was constantly not booming. He was born on January 22 to Samantha and Spencer Ackland after they had brilliantly forgotten the box of Trojans at home. Yup… he was a mistake... a mistake that was conceived in the back of a pickup truck at a drive-in movie. His parents were classy folks like that. Anyways, after much debate between the two reluctant parental units, they decided to get hitched and keep the baby (and luckily for Devon they both grew to love him). In the end you could even go as far as to say that they became thankful that their trusty box of rubbers had been left behind.
Dev grew up with a fairly uneventful childhood. He took up Tae Kwon Doe at the age of six and eventually received his black belt. He was pretty good when it came to other sports too, but was never one of the best. He had a lot of friends, kept good grades, did well with girls… he was normal, and all went well for the Ackland family until Devon’s first day of eighth grade. He’d been settling into his fifth period (struggling to stay awake as usual), when the principal came in and called him out of class. He’d just thrown out his signature smug smile, confidently strutting out of the room to a chorus of “oooooohs”. It wasn’t until five minutes after he’d walked out that door that the principal spilled the news. His mother had died of a heart attack. Bennett remembered the whole scene as being insanely dramatic. A weeping principal, a comforting clap on the shoulder from one of the guidance counselors, somber looks from all the office staff… is was all quite the setup. His reaction, however, must have been severely underwhelming. He was in shock… his mom was young… really, really young. And a heart attack? There was no way. It wasn’t until he was sent home that reality set in. Over time, he eventually learned to move on. Unfortunately, his father did not.
Almost immediately after Samantha’s death, Devon’s dad turned to alcohol for comfort. It started out with a few bottles of beer a day, but he gradually got into harder liquor. By the time Devon entered high school, Spencer was a full-on, jobless alcoholic. They were living off of inheritance money. At first Devon tried to get him checked into rehab, but nothing stuck, and he eventually had to accept the fact that his dad was in way too deep. Fortunately he wasn’t a violent drunk… quite the opposite actually. When he was wasted, he did nothing but sit in front of the television, eyes glazed over until he lost consciousness. Devon was a glass-half-full person though, and he found the bright side of having a legal guardian with a blood alcohol level of at least 0.30. He didn’t have a curfew, he could do whatever the fuck he wanted, and he basically had the house to himself.
He spent his years in high school keeping up mediocre grades. He was intelligent and knew the material, but he’d be damned if he was going to miss a party to fucking study. He had free reign over his life, and he savored the chance to go wild. He had a good time, and took care of himself. He developed a hard, unpredictable personality over the years, and his moral boundary lines were severely blurred. Things were going great, and it wasn’t until the summer after high school graduation that Devon’s dad had one bottle too many. Spencer’s death didn’t faze Dev much at all. In a way his dad had already died when his mother had five years ago, and it wasn‘t exactly unexpected. So at eighteen years old he now had a bank account full of dead family members’ money, an old Chevy, a house, and an acceptance letter to the USF. It was a randomass choice of school, but one of his good friends was going there, and he might as well follow. So after selling his family’s house and packing his things, he got his ass out of Bend as quickly as he could.
The next four years of his life were ominously similar to his high school ones. Sex, a little bit of studying, parties… just on a much larger scale. His outer personality changed frequently: he could be shy, outgoing, nerdy, etc. But on the inside, everything stayed the same. There was only one tiny detail that made life at University a little bit… different. He developed his powers. It started off with just random magic. He couldn‘t control any of it in the beginning, and he initially wrote it off as just random awesome happenings. That is, until he destroyed some guy. It all happened when Devon was in his Sophomore year. He’d gotten into a bit of an argument with another guy. He’d gotten angry, and bam! other guy was dead. Devon ran from the scene, but instead of crying over what he’d done, he couldn’t help but feel a little intrigued. He constantly practiced how to control his abilities, and has learned a lot about the supernatural. Ever since that incident he’s been a warlock on the hunt for more power.
