Personality:
Christopher Is a people person, he seems to thrive when he's around others, Whether he knows them or not. He is the type of person to joke around, and try to lighten every situation with a bit of humor, never content to just sit around and let himself and people around him mope in sadness. Though he's normally seen as disrespectful or immature, to most people, since he doesn't ever try to take any situation seriously. Christopher is a happy go lucky person, seeming unfazed by what happens around him, acting like he doesn't have a care in the world. He always looks for something fun and new to try, seeming almost desperate to get away from the dull and serious reality that he lives in.
Because of his efforts to seem unaffected by anything, Christopher also tends to be extremely cocky, often making up stuff that he can do, or pretending he can do stuff that he probably couldn't, which most of the time leads to people asking him to prove what he said, or people looking to him in a situation that he said he could easily fix. And, as you can imagine, this gets him into a lot more trouble than it's worth, though he still acts cocky about almost everything, going as far as to say he can do stuff better than a trained professional. But, sometimes, Christopher does actually manage to pull off what he said he could do, which only encourages him to be cocky more often
Though in all actuality, Christopher has a hard time actually dealing with any really serious situation, and is normally seen as inappropriate when he makes jokes out of serious events.. though in reality, it's his way of coping with situations that would upset or terrify him; In his mind, if he makes it into a joke, then it can't upset him or scare him, since it would just be funny, and the seriousness of the situation would be gone.
Physiology: Witch
Powers:
High aptitude towards preforming magic (Witch spells, fireball, water, etc)
Weakness:
He runs out of witch mana stamina really quickly while casting any sort of spells. He also has no idea about witch related stuff, or that he's even a witch, meaning he has no idea he can actually preform any magic at all.
History:
Christopher's Father, was born to two witches.. though, by some cruel joke by genetics, he managed to not become a witch, even slightly.. so his parents, being the sort of people they were, put him up for adoption, the moment they found out. So Christopher's father grew up with no knowledge of who his parents were, or even that they were witches. So when he got married to Christopher's mother and had Christopher, they had no idea that he could even be a witch, let alone the fact that he was one, so Christopher grew up having no idea that he was a witch at all, or even that he had any powers.
Christopher grew up as an only child, his parents having already struggled to have him, after countless miscarriages, and so because of that, they made sure to do their best to keep him safe at all times, which ended up kind of restricting what he could actually do with his life.. and leaving him unable to deal with a lot of high pressure situations well. Throughout school, whenever he had a problem with his teachers, or he was being bullied, his parents came to sort things out for him, which left him with a generally happy life.. though he never really encounter any situation that he had to deal with himself, his parents always made to sure to sort things out for him. So eventually, Christopher developed the attitude he had now, just making a joke out of everything, since he believed that if something did go wrong, it would eventually be fixed by his parents.
That was until Christopher was ten years old, and got threatened by the school bully.. and got told that if he 'snitched' on him, he would beat the crap out of him.. so Christopher being the person he was, just made a joke out of it and then went off to tell a teacher.. but before he was able to, he found himself hitting the ground, quite hard, having been pushed over by the bully. The bully then kicked Christopher in the stomach, hard, before walking off with his group of friends, leaving Christopher to wallow in pain for a while.. before a teacher noticed him on the ground. He was then taken to the school nurse, and his parents were called. Though, Christopher didn't want to risk getting hurt by the bully again, so he lied when his parents asked him what happened, saying he just tripped over his shoelaces and trying to make a joke out of it, to distract then from his lie. And his parents and the teachers decided to leave it at that, since they figured they weren't going to get much more out of him, since he kept dodging the question and cracking jokes about it.
Christopher continued to get bullied, and only on rare occasions, when a teacher noticed it, did anything actually happen to the bully. Christopher continued to try to play everything that was happening off, resorting to just making jokes about whatever the bully did, trying to not let it show that he was afraid, in case his parents or a teacher caught onto the fact that the bullying was a regular occurrence, and the bully then saw that as him snitching on him. The Bullying only stopped when Christopher moved away, to a different town and switched schools, though he still kept making jokes out of any situation that was even remotely serious, not wanting to worry his parents about it.
