APPEARANCE: Finn has a tall athletic build, even taller then his big brother. He’s not built like his brother, where Ethan is built like a football player, Finn is built like a track star. He’s on the leaner side, but keeps himself fit as much as he can. He dresses in layers, mostly because he’s cold a majority of the time, but also to cover the various scars he has on his arms and torso that he's self conscious about. He keeps his hair short so it’s not in his face, and he prefers to have a clean shave however, he does go some days without shaving, leaving a bit of dark stubble along his jaw. He has bright blue eyes that sometimes are very intense, but that’s because he’s taking in everything around him, or whatever he’s focusing on. Finn wears a woman's ring on a long chain under his shirt. It's one of the few things he was able to get the night his parents died.


POSITION/OCCUPATION:Rogue Mystic/Hired Hand

GRAMARYE GIFT (if any): Super Observation. Finn’s gramarye allows him to take in the smallest of details better than most. He can pick out someone trying to hide something, pickpockets, notice when something is wrong ect. In combat he’s quite skilled most for the fact he can see the shifts in a person’s body before they make their move. He’s able to anticipate their next moves from the information he takes in. The downside? Finn can’t turn it off. Oftentimes, in group settings he gets a sensory overload leaving him very overwhelmed. If he’s focused on something, he is focused, and is left vulnerable and must be brought out of the task or situation.

PERSONALITY: Quiet most of the time, Finn is the more “level headed” one of the Carver boys. He doesn’t trust anyone aside from Ethan. If Ethan trusts someone, then Finn will trust them no questions asked. The brothers are equals in terms of discussing what they should do, however Finn is more inclined to take Ethans lead on things and do what his brother thinks is right. Despite how laid back Finn is, he won’t just follow his brother blindly. He voices his opinions and lets Ethan know if he doesn’t agree with something, but ultimately, Finn is afraid of being alone. Worse, he’s afraid of losing Ethan and being alone.

Finn is very cautious of strangers, sometimes coming across as an asshole because he won’t say much and just give them the cold shoulder. He’s a bit more talkative if you get him to trust you. He doesn’t do confrontation unless Ethan is the one to start it. By himself, Finn normally just sees himself out. The only time you will ever see Finn angry, or outright punch someone without a second thought is if he’s been pushed too far, has had too much sensory input, or you're the biggest asshole to walk the face of the planet. If Finn reacts in anger at all, you know there is a general good reason for it.

Finn has to be able to focus on something in crowd settings. Generally that something is his whittling work, where he can sit and whittle away, focusing on his task so he doesn’t have to take in everything else around him. Finn gets very fidgety, and almost as a panicked, wild look in his eyes when there is too much stimuli that he’s being forced to take in. The worst for him is sound, as he can generally just close his eyes if it becomes too much visual input. He struggles with tuning out sounds however, and will cover his ears if it gets too bad. Ethan can generally notice right away when Finn is going into sensory overload and forces Finn to focus on him instead.

HISTORY:
Finnian was the second born son to Ruth and Samuel Carver. He had a normal upbringing along with his older brother Ethan until the boys were 13 and 14. It was then, when everything was taken from them. Their father was a mystic that had been found, and was killed. His mother tried to interfere, and it got her killed as well. Finn was terrified to say the least, managing to pocket a few things from both their parents' belongings before him and Ethan were taken by the men that killed their parents.

The Wardens? The myths? The legends? If you ask Finn, he’ll tell you straight out they are very much so real. Finn and Ethan were tortured and experimented on for a short time. In that time, Finn realized he himself was also a mystic. His Gramarye finally made itself known. He started to notice things, becoming hyper aware of what his torturers did. He could pick up on their body movements, things around the room, sounds… He observed everything, taking everything in. He realized if he could focus on one thing it made everything else around him quiet. He suffered from multiple panic attacks, and sensory overload the first few weeks of captivity. Not realizing what was happening to him, until he began to realize how much he was observing. In the short time they were captured, Finn was apart from Ethan. Not knowing if his brother was alive or not, nearly destroyed Finn. When Ethan finally managed to escape, he came for Finn, and the boys made their run for it.

They entered hiding then. Finding work while they could, while at the same time their anger at the world just festered and festered. They’ve had a rough life, having to fight for survival. The boys are angry at the world and have done what they had too. They never stay in one place long, afraid to let anyone get close to them. Finn wishes for the day to come where they don’t have to hide anymore, and can just be their true selves.
