(Choppy sentences because I'll get too wordy otherwise.)
Name: Haleth
Race: Human, clearly. ...Most of the time.
Age: 29
Theme: Archangel - Two Steps From Hell
Field of magic: Fire magic, soul-binding, and shapeshifting. He has some minor possession abilities.
Appearance: Tall, somewhat muscular as wizards go. Light-skinned. He has dark blond hair, which he ties back in a short, loose ponytail. Has a close-cropped goatee of the same color. Tends to wear golds, reds, and browns. orig08.deviantart.net/06e4/f/2014/255/b/6/halethheadshot_by_kauriana-d7yzb0c.png
Personality: Haleth resents being called a wizard because it calls to mind images of squishy old men in beards and robes. He revels in his own ability to wield magic, in feeling the rush of raw power at his fingertips. Slightly obsessive. Confident and power-hungry.
History/Gyrada: About a year before the disease struck, he finally managed to obtain a fully-grown gyrada, a massive male with bronze feathers. According to the garuda he has hired as both an interpreter and guard, the bird's true name cannot be spoken by the human tongue, although the first few syllables can serve as a common name.
Skre'kalee.
Despite this, Haleth managed to bond his soul with that of the gyrada, although this bond is nothing like that of the elves of EB. Instead, it allows him to call upon Skre'kalee's strength from across vast distances and to change his own form into the body of a gyrada. This form is identical to Skre'kalee in size and shape, although Haleth's eyes are green and his feathers gold. He can fight and cast spells in this form, allowing him to keep one of the few surviving adults drugged in a magesbane cage and miles away from battle.
Skre'kalee is a quadrupedal gyrada, unlike the two-legged variety some other wizards have. (Think gryphon, except . . . all bird. XD)
Equipment/Attacks: In his human form, he always keeps a dagger handy, and is fairly proficient at throwing them. As a gyrada, he wears a harness woven with dragonsbane to keep his opponents at bay. In addition to the obvious beak and claws, his feathers are hard and razor-thin. He may carry one or two scrolls in human form that allow him to cast spells outside of his usual fields.
(I will not be using the mana system for him.)
Other:
Haleth loves magic possibly more than his own life, and seeks a dragon to bind to him because they are, at essence, creatures of magic. The creatures of magic.
Haleth has separated from the wizard army to pursue his goals in secrecy. Accompanied by the souls of several dead spellcasters, he has taken refuge in the mountains on the western side of the continent of Dragon-Essence, keeping mainly to his alternate form. He marks potential candidates for his bond with spirit trackers, the only known one so far being Pandora.
In the meantime, Skre'kalee is securely held and tended to by several garuda on the human continent.
Overpowered 'cause he needs to be.
