Oh, forgot to mention this, but I do indeed spy an image of a young Titania there, heheh. It works well for your character. Good choice.

Personality: Charles can be a bit difficult to work with. He can be severely blunt although not entirely honest, despite having a knack for exposing secrets because of his semblance. His extreme paranoia only matched by his talent for sarcasm. His time at Atlas changed him though. He was still paranoid, sarcastic, and secretive, but now he'd learned to control his anger and replaced it with a more tactical mindset. They taught him to cope with his PTSD by replacing it with busy hands. He developed a sense of comradely he'd never known before. He found his heart there, a place to call home. He remembered how to care for people again, how to really live. He felt an obligation to people, because if he wouldn't watch over them, who would?

Backstory: Charles was born in a small shack in the woods. He was raised on fishing and hunting for himself and his small family of five. Every other week it was him, his dad, and his sister stalking through the woods, looking for their next meal. It was a hard life, but a simple one. A life that you could enjoy without the hassle other people tend to bring with them. But like everything in this world, walls can only hold so long against the Grimm.

A particularly cold Autumn day left the hunt barren and their rations as exhausted as their feet. They had no choice, but to turn back and face a few starving nights in the coming months. Although they came to find it didn't matter how much food they had that day. They came home to see claw marks as large as horses scaling the walls of the cabin. The father was frantic searching for his missing family. They had to be somewhere, anywhere. They were. When Mr. MacGregor found the cellar doors folded in he couldn't stop his legs as he strode down into the broken bunker. A woman with a child wrapped in her arms laid beaten into the corner, covered with broken jars that once held the little food they had stored for the long winter.

They didn't have much of a funeral. They weren't very religious. It was a burial of a body to keep the animals off their corpses. Their mother was already gone. With how much they'd lost, they had no choice but to head east to Vale. At the very least they needed to somehow resupply for winter.

They started the long trek, but along the way constant attack from Grimm kept them from making any real progress. The father was the first to go. He stood up to an Ursa to allow his kids to escape before joining his wife. The image of his body being torn apart forever seared into their minds. Days later, his sister was carried off by a Nevermore. The only reason Charles seemed to be able to avoid them, was by somehow... anticipating them. He could feel where they were. He knew where to hide, and where they wouldn't find him.

Barely escaping the woods with his life left many scars. Eight long jagged claw marks reaching down his back from a Beowulf, and four across his chest. He was able to kill it with a hunting knife, faltering strength and his new found aura as weak, as it was at the time, before the thing could finish him off. After three long months of eating squirrels and berries he finally arrived at Vale, the only thing really keeping him alive being his will and his aura. A faint knock on the first door he saw was all he could muster before collapsing on the porch. The family that lived there gladly rushed him to the hospital before he became their problem. While the kid was barely able to speak while he was suffering from starvation and cold, they were able to find out he was obviously from the woods. When they asked how he survived the Grimm, he simply stated that he could see them.

A few weeks in intensive care and hardly a word out of him made him an adequate applicant for foster care. He only spent a year there before leaving. At least he could keep what little freedom he had left on the outside of those brick walls. Along the way he made and lost a lot of friends. Many of them were Faunus, just trying to get by like him. He even snuck into into a few White fang meetings with a friend of his. The one time he was caught, they almost killed him. He's been a bit bitter about the organization since.

Years later, a passing soldier from atlas caught wind of rumors circling a strange kid that mysteriously appeared from the woods years ago. While she was already recruiting huntsmen for the academy she decided to try to find the kid. It didn't take long before she found Charles getting the snot beat out of him in an alleyway by a bunch of rich brats. The fight was stopped, and while every authority that had an inkling of who this kid was, assured her he was nothing but trouble, the recruiter saw something in him. He was hastily interviewed and sent to Atlas academy to be trained as a huntsman despite his lack of education and age. There he's learning how to be part of something again, no matter how much he dislikes the notion at the time. It's still leagues better than scrounging on the street. It seems though that Atlas has an exchange student program in the works, and headmaster ironwood knows just the student to send.

Weapons: Fenrir and Jormungandr
Weapon Description: Fenrir is a small black tomahawk that can easily transform into a one handed shotgun. Charles uses this weapon not only for it's incredible versatility, but for it's ability to control the opponents movements through grappling. The alternate shotgun mode is useful not only for ranged combat, but also for propulsion when you need a little kick in your step. Rough depiction
Jormungandr is a small twelve inch knife with a thin yet very strong cable attached to the hilt. The other end of the cable is connected to a reel on a gauntlet that goes halfway down the forearm and doesn't cover the fingers. This can be used not only as a melee weapon but to retrieve far away objects or more often than not, to propel him swiftly and decisively. Rough depiction

Semblance: Vigilance
Semblance Description: Charles is able to sense his surroundings using his aura. This allows him to not only be keenly aware of exactly where and what he's doing at all times, but also makes it harder for surprises to pop up. It also allows him to essentially see through walls. However, this does interfere with electronics. Anytime he needs to drive a car, call someone, or even use a microwave he needs to turn off his semblance, which can be uncomfortable to do, like wearing shoes that are three sizes to small. It can also come in handy when you want to disable electronics as well. The ability is also not absolute. It's like using a searchlight rather than a radar. It's always pointing a certain direction allowing things to slip by. His semblance will evolve the more he uses it.

Combt Outfit Image/Description: An olive green sleveless T, a black military jacket, black cargo pants, and combat boots.
Casual Outfit Image/Description: The same thing
