CHARACTER INFORMATION

NAME: Reid Garwin
CANON: The Covenant
AGE: 18
CANON POINT: Post movie

BACKGROUND: Here
INCENTIVE: Reid's incentive could be one out of three possible options. First, a large sum of money, which he'd agree to the contract if a couple million greens were involved (and because despite his "bad boy" status from school, he does sometimes help people out). Second option, a scholarship for professional swimmers or entry into the Olympic swimming teams. Third option - removing the "price" for the Power, in that overly using magic won't cause him to age rapidly into old age and die (or if not removing it totally, then at least slowing it down).

FIT: If approached with an offer to help a city by partaking in physical intimacy with others? Reid wouldn't have to think too hard on it, as that's the sort of thing he enjoys on a daily (or weekly, if school kept him busy) basis. He'd be thrilled and looking forward to supplying that much needed energy for the city. And of course, it would show that he'd grown up a bit and doesn't always have to be the school troublemaker, to show that he's capable of doing a few good deeds. Plus he has magic too, so he'd be willing to help a few new friends with menial tasks or favors by using magic for them.

He has also lived in Ipswich his whole life, as has everyone in the Sons' families since the 1700s, so he's on the verge of trying to move outside of that. To find something beyond his small town, to improve himself, maybe even find more opportunities (more so if it involves swimming). So perhaps getting an offer to move to Eudio for a while would serve as the first step of his journey in branching out into the world. Also.. with him being in the same town his whole life, knows pretty much all the people, it's really so much all the same for a while now. He'd see this offer not just as a chance to help, or a chance to hook up (granted, he's sold on that part), but mostly - it's a big chance for him to meet a lot more new people that he's never known before, and maybe even make a few new friends in the process.

CONSENT: Out of the four "brothers" who called themselves the Sons of Ipswich, Reid was known as the "bad boy" of the group, and likely of their prestigious school too. Pranks via magic, gambling, getting into bar fights with jerks, getting caught in girls' dorms, being flirty with people, etc. However, in spite of all this, and though he is a bit of a flirt, he's never been known to force a woman (or anyone else) into a sexual encounter if they refused his offers, often moving on to those who are more accepting. He understands consent, especially due to Chase trying to take their powers by force against Caleb's will. In fact, if he's seeing anyone being forcefully taken advantage of, he might likely step in to stop it.

SAMPLES:

It was late at night. Reid had spent the evening with the other Sons, hanging out in the bar, gambling for money, doing a bit of betting dollars for pool game wins with a couple of the obnoxious jocks, which involved secretly using a little magic - the two men whom had insisted and swore to God that they could beat the blond swimmer boy at any game. So of course, Reid just had to step up to that challenge. And he had of course won. And wouldn't you know it, they reneged on their deal! "Assholes," Reid had mumbled at the time, at which they followed him outside, much to Caleb's insistence to just let shit go.

He'd come out of that fine enough, though left with a few bruises on his face. "I know, I know," he'd said while his 'brothers' combined their magic to heal away the bruise marks, knowing full well he deserved a lecture from the oldest. But this time it did not come. That was a relief. After they played a bit more, they all drove home, Reid being the last one to be dropped off at his home by Tyler and the Hummer. It was a very large house, spacious, and old. It had been in their family for several centuries, when the four families had fled Salem during the witch hunt craze and settled in Ipswich. And they had lived here ever since. This house was their home, as was the town.

But Reid sometimes wondered about traveling beyond it. Sometimes others did, when pursuing higher education at colleges and universities. And maybe some might even move elsewhere. But it always came back here, this town was home, where the four Sons would be born and raised. He was pondering about that tonight. He knew those two jerks. And many more. He also knew pretty much all the girls too... now, he hadn't slept with every one of them, but he knew them. And maybe a few men too. Shhh. But he wanted something else. Something more. And it was becoming clearer each day that chances were slim on finding that in Ipswich.

He was great at swimming after all, maybe he can be a professional swim trainer to the other pros? Or a job working as a deep sea scuba diver. Or better, maybe actually be part of a swim team representing America in the Olympics. Maybe he'd even make some large amounts of money from it. But if not? Well. He hadn't thought that much ahead yet. If it came to it, he'd likely need a regular type of job and use swimming a a hobby. Although the image of him as an Olympic swimmer did look really nice in his mind. And maybe doing some travel will help him meet new people and not have it end in a fight, like tonight did.

Reid wanted to know what was out there for him. Or if there was actually anything for him. He hoped to find that out very soon. And plus, he had to get his mind off what else happened, such as what Chase did to his brothers, to other girls, and especially the fact of Caleb having to lose his father. He wished there was a spell for resurrection, but alas, their book didn't have anything on that from what he could see. He couldn't imagine how he would react if one of his own parents did that; or worse, ending up like Caleb's dad. A lifetime of excessive magic use, brought about premature old age. And Reid, damn, he had to agree that magic using was addictive, especially to him. And he'd end up the same way Mr. Danvers did if he wasn't careful.

"Hello, Mr. Garwin," a man's voice suddenly spoke near the blond, who was just about to get ready for his bedtime. The man was definitely not there a second before. "What the fuck??", Reid yelled, jumping up and turning around, seeing a man in a well dressed suit. "How? Dude, how did you get you? You another warlock?" He raised his hand. He swore if this was an attack, he'd start throwing around energy blasts and force pushes.

"No," the man spoke, calm, "not a wizard. I'm a Representative of a place called Eudio. Our town needs help sustaining it's energy and unfortunately it takes more than the natives can give. So we'd like to make you an offer. To give you something that is difficult to obtain, anything you want. So long as it's not to override another's consent or to bring harm to another. And you'd have to actually move to Eudio for a time. Usually a month, could be a little longer. After which you can come back here. Or wherever else you would go."

Reid was still confused, and uneasy, but he lowered his hand and sat down on the edge of the bed. "So it's like an incentive thing," he mused. "You give me something, but to do it, I have to move to your town and do something important for you. But back up a bit, you said anything. Now, is that like a lot of money, like a bag full of a million dollars? Or a job at a company where I make money? Or if I want to join the Olympics? Or... do you mean.. anything. Like, magic type of anything."

"Yes, literally anything you can imagine, including what you just described," the Representative answered to him. "And sometimes it's possible to have another incentive to be granted also, after you're living in Eudio. Then when you leave, you will receive what was promised. Unless you somehow break contract by not doing your part, or if you hurt people to a large degree. Also, breaking the consent of anyone will void the contract altogether." Reid slowly nodded after thinking on that. After all, this man had just teleported to this room, and even knew his full name. Maybe he could actually deliver on the contract. And the rules around the contract did make sense too.

Reid gave another nod in response. So it was a place that also disapproved of bruising others or hurting people? After the night he had, that would be a very welcomed change in his life. It would be nice to not have to fight anymore, honestly. "So if I wanted.. okay. So if I wanted my magic to not have a price? See, I just Ascended, and when we do that... if we use too much magic, we get old and die, really fast. I hear I can extend my life if I threaten others to will their power, but I'm not like that. I'm not Chase. Anyway, you can make it so I don't get old from using? Or at least, make it so it only happens more slowly? And like maybe a little warning.. like, if I get close to using too much at one time, I feel tired? You can do this?" The man gave a nod and admitted that yes, anything is possible. If Reid delivers on his own end. "So what's my side? What do you need me to do to help." Because even though he's been a troublemaker and 'bad boy', he does wish to help.

"You will need to do your part to supply energy, as do others we've invited," the Representative said. "This energy is supplied by engaging in physical intimacy with others. Also, while you are away with us, time sort of freezes for your home place. So everything and everyone you know will be the same as you left. In case you were wondering if they'd be safe or suddenly need you when you're gone."

"..What? Sex?" Reid leaned back, jaw momentarily dropped in surprise. "Seriously? Really? You're being totally serious right now? Your town gets energy when people get laid. Not pulling my leg or anything. Huh, I bet it's a big power surge when it's a large group of folks at the same time, am I right?" Yes, of course it was serious, which he realized now. "Umm. Yeah. Okay. So let me get this. You give me what I requested, and maybe a few other things after I get there... and all I need to do on my end is sex with other people? That's it?" He saw the man nod. "Ohh, Hell yeah. Dude, that is sooo awesome. I already do that normally, so no worries. So you guys, don't even worry about me keeping my part of the deal. Really."

He let out a heavy sigh as he grabbed a few clothes from his closet, then looked at this Representative. His mind was pretty much all made up at this point, but was hesitating. Would it really be okay if he leaves, he wondered. But then again, he'd been assured about time freezing for those close to him in Ipswich. And this was partly an answer to what he'd been wanting. To get out there, explore, meet others. And the incentive thing, it would be a great help in the long run, because then he could relax knowing the other Sons would be fine. "Okay," the blond swimmer spoke then, giving the man a handshake, a sign that he agreed with the contract. "You got it, count me in. I'd actually like to go right now. I'm ready."


ANYTHING ELSE? He has various magical powers, being a warlock (boy witch), though they're not really on the world breaking level. Just stuff like levitation, telekinesis, falling 50 feet without damage, "fixing" machines like car motors and other types, energy blasts, minor weather control. Unfortunately, since he's 18, there's a price.. using too much also takes from his life force, and he'd age quickly and likely die (unless the Representative went with Option #3 in the Incentives section above).
