Abilities: He has the potential for magic and some limited telepathy, but at the moment is completely unaware of it.
Things to Know
Tan is blind and mute. He 'talks' by writing on notebook paper. Hence why I will type everything within quotations. Later as his powers develop I might let his powers expand into telepathy so that he can talk through his thoughts. Maybe
He has an 'inner sense' of sorts (probably connected to the telepathy) that allows him to vaguely feel the shapes around him depending on how concentrated he is. The more concentration he has, the easier it is for him to navigate and 'see' things in his mind. The more distracted he is the more 'blind' he becomes, running into things and losing track of people around him. Best he can manage to see currently is a blurred outline.
He's highly injury prone.
Physical: Tan has white hair and rather pale skin. His wings are small, amputated nubs. His eyes are a milky light blue. Black tubes go through his body (I still don't know their purpose D: ). His left ear is also torn up.
Personality: Tan is an overall happy individual. And a very curious one at that. Ever since he entered the academy he's been picking up on the behavior of others and even mimicking them to some degree. He's never had social interactions himself before now, so while he knows good advice to give others he himself draws blank. He tries to be polite to everyone, excluding a select few, as he tries to be on good terms with everything. The giving of a marshmallow is, in his mind, the equivalent of asking one to be your friend and seals the deal.
Physical contact makes him nervous as he's also never experienced this before the academy. He is quickly warming up to it but sometimes it still does cause him to panic.
He almost never shares his past unless he is on good terms with the person asking. He hates talking about it, although his bluntness will seem otherwise. He also secretly hates how 'trapped' he feels by his disabilities, but will never admit it.
When it comes to defending someone, he will push aside all fears and help them as he can even at the sacrifice of himself. But when it concerns himself he either spazzes out, runs away, or is a total coward.
He follows his Guardian Angel trainings almost obsessively, even when it makes no sense, and breaking away from them makes him very uneasy. Habitually, he'll start following others at random and try to play 'guardian' with them without even realizing it.
Other:
Bio: At an early age his brother had him grow up at another academy where angels learned how to be guardians. This was done mainly so Tan could never be a threat to his own angel status.
The training process pushed everyone to be 'perfect' and went to unhealthy extremes to cement trained behaviors into the students. Hence Tan's reluctance to do anything outside of what he was trained to do.
After he graduated that school he was immediately placed as a guardian over a new born girl.
As a guardian angel, one basically exists in another plane and functions as a conscience. They implant ideas or try to direct their human, but human free will determines if they follow or ignore the given advice. The stronger a human's belief in other worldly things or religion, the easier it is for an angel to make contact with their human. Guardians are also not affected by anything on Earth. They cannot feel warm or cold. They cannot touch things. They aren't even heard. Nor do they need food or sleep.
Tan was not so lucky. While his girl could see him as a child, she quickly grew out of it and he couldn't get through to her anymore. Against his direction, she engaged in alcohol, drugs, and sex. And much to his dismay, the parental affection he had towards her as a kid started to turn into lust as she slowly turned into a beautiful young woman, secretly wishing to take the place of her boyfriends and to make contact with somebody.
Sometime after the girl grew to be 17, an accident occurred where her apartment caught fire in the middle of the night. Trapped inside, Tan was stuck having to watch her slowly die. In a quick act of rebellion he spoke to her at a frequency humans could hear clearly, trying to guide her out. Seeing that it wasn't working, he rushed to her side and gave her his angelic sight so she could see him there. Then, once again guiding her with his voice he shielded the both of them with his wings, guiding her to safety. Through the walk he also shared his angelic traits with her to protect her from the heat and keep her from suffocating. By the end of it all, she went to the hospital with minor smoke inhalation and burns while he came out of it blind, mute from damaging his own vocal cords, flightless as his wings were destroyed from the fire and debris, and with mortal traits such as a need for food and sleep. He gave up his guardian angel duties after that, both for the selfish reason that he 'failed' by going against guardian rules he learned as a kid and so that she wouldn't see what became of him and be left with a fully capable angel. The girl was left with the ability to see angels and, last he heard, straightened herself out. He stayed with his brother until he recovered enough to find out his brother once again enrolled him into another academy to 'stop being useless'
