James Willard

"“Thou shalt not annoy people who can turn you into a mouse then feed you to their familiar.”"

Early Life
James was born on August 19th 1995 in Lawrence, Massachusetts. He was the 4th child out of 5, born to Sarah and David Willard. His family was of Polish, Romanian and Serbian descent, having fled to America during the Holocaust.

James began questioning his faith during his teenage years, looking into different religions in search for one that called him. A calling he found in Pagan Witchcraft.

James' family shunned him when he came out as a pagan, causing him to decide to leave when he turned 18, taking his twin sister Gabrielle with him.

Physical Appearance
As an infant, James had baby colic and cried frequently; he consequently developed nodules and calluses on his vocal cords while he was a child. This causes James to speak with a low, raspy voice.

James has tight black curls sheared around his ears and neck, deep black eyes, a wide nose and a generous mouth. He also has a mole under his right eye socket, near his nose.

Skills & Abilities
"' A small corner of the wild, bees and beetles, with dirt under his fingers and twigs in his hair.'"

Gabrielle Willard
Gabrielle is James' sister and twin, older than him by 17 minutes.

Bandit
James found Bandit as a 4 year old cat, abandoned at a shelter and in need of a new home. Feeling a kinship with the feline, James adopted the cat and renamed him Bandit, in honour of his food-thieving ways. James adores his furry bastard, happily lazing in the grass while Bandit sleeps curled up on his chest.

As his familiar, Bandit assists with James' spell work, sitting guard while James draws his runes and carves charms. He also mewls and hisses when if things feel off, batting at James until he stops.

His favourite food is tuna and he has a cushion on the window sill to sleep on.
