POWERS: Adam will not come to Xistentia with any specific ability due to his severed connection to Cabeswater. Had the city it's own version of a ley line or something happened to awaken that part of him, his powers would be the following:
→ Scrying. → Tarot reading. → Communing with ancient mystical trees. → Using ancient mystical trees as protection.
STARTING EQUIPMENT: His daemon, a small robotic car painted like a police vehicle that occasionally turns into a humanoid looking robot named Barricaded. One pair of jeans, socks, sneakers, and a faded coca cola shirt, plus a hideous velcro wallet with a $5 bill inside, and a pack of tarot cards.
EXIT STRATEGY: Adam had been helping Ronan with his newly dreamt Cabeswater 2.0 - and by help, he was mostly just touching trees fondly - when D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. appeared, eating away at both real and dream world. The portal appeared as it reached the forest and both boys escaped through it at the last moment.
MORALITY: Adam is someone who very much believes in doing what is right. He is a good person who is maybe not as personable as he would like, who finds injustice and cruelty very off-putting. While he hasn't had the best start in life, he never tries to use other people to his own advantage. He wants to succeed in life on his own merit. He also would do anything he could to keep his friends safe and well. However, that also has a negative aspect. Anything means anything, whether that be through letting someone die by supernatural circumstance or blackmail. He's not morally grey so much as there's a protective streak in him that doesn't care what he has to do to keep them alive. Bad people should be punished.
WAR ATTITUDES: He will not want to fight physically initially, but he would want to help in ways he could stomach, and so missions that require brain over brawn he'd sign up for. The likelihood is too, that despite his issues with violence, if one of his friends goes on-mission Adam will have to follow like a worried mother hen.
INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS: He's quite difficult to get to know at first. Adam has spent much of his life feeling unknowable, a strange creature who doesn't fit in anywhere in the world. He'd struggled with connecting well to even the closest of his friends, over analyzing everything about himself to the point where he feels awkward and judged. There's been some mellowing as of late. He'll be more open to making friends and alliances, because everyone here is in the same point. Romantically, Ronan will be with him and so it is very unlikely that Adam would be open to that anywhere else because his boyfriend is a good catholic and anyway Adam loves him.
COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONS: He'll be very much for saving the world he'd come from, especially considering some people he cares for might have been left behind. However, he's not much of a fighter and so his main interest would be information gathering and that means talking to everyone he can even though it's awkward and difficult. If Adam thinks someone might know something helpful or useful he'll make it a point to find out, using his time and energy to even go so far as to pick up new skills. The fact that he's not alone might help soothe him enough that while he is in Xist he'll try to find a place in it, something of a home, even though that too is a foreign concept.
