Name: Kaliq Keelin St. Clair

Race: Immortal
Species: Necromancer // Arab Blood Shaman
Family:
Father: Raegan St. Clair
Mother: Jalia Amatallah (Deceased)
Appearance:
Celebrity Avatar:*Required picture and code*
Celebrity Claim: Agim Kaba
Personality:
Kaliq is the strong, silent type. Unlikely to give much away, he uses words only when necessary- most often to cut down an opponent with vicious verbal barbs. However, beneath his cold, spiky exterior Kaliq is comprised of layers- each difficult to cut through- protecting a warm core. Generally tranquil when unprovoked, he is level-headed and painfully loyal to those who have connected with him. Beneath that tranquillity though, he holds fiercely to his belief in the sanctity of life and his activities to maintain it. He believes most deeply in peace- though he is not above using violence in the pursuit of it...
History:
Kaliq “Keelin” St. Clair was born in the Arab Emirate of Jordan; the only son of Raegan St. Clair and Jalia Amatallah. Raegan, a Necromancer himself, had spent years travelling the world learning the hidden intricacies of ritual magic, particularly the ritual use of magic in blood and death rites. In the pursuit of this knowledge, he travelled the Middle East extensively, immersing himself in the ancient magical culture there.
While in the Arab country of Jordan Raegan began seeing a girl named Jalia. He had been studying with her father, a powerful Blood Shaman and respected tribal leader, and two became casually involved. When Jalia got pregnant though, Raegan married her, to protect her honour, her name and his son. Kaliq, their son, was born just months before his mother died of a magical disease common to her people.
Kaliq and his father spent his first four years with his mother’s tribe. Then his father packed up and returned to what is now Gaia to teach at Dusk. They spent two further years there, leaving for Africa soon before the mortal-immortal wore broke out. Kaliq spent the remainder of his childhood following his father throughout the world, immersed in a wide variety of different cultures- and the more knowledgeable for it. They lived in Singapore, Germany, Tibet, Brazil, in several Sub-Saharan African states... and in China.
On his coming of age- Kaliq used the knowledge he had gained in the immortal communities throughout the world to practical use. He travelled widely himself, gathering knowledge of his own in both magical ability and ancient ritual practices. He is an academic at heart. Later he gradually move into the role of a mercenary, a warrior- but turned his talents only towards causes he perceived as just. He is practical though- he doesn’t expect to change the world through his actions, only do his part in improving his little corner of it. Along the way he linked up with the man who was to become his closest confidante- Danny Malone... Hitching up with his less ethical friend, Kaliq has become a vital part of the war against the mortals who would seek to destroy the immortal way of life and the history and knowledge that comes with it. However, despite his importance, few know that Kaliq even exists...
Anything Else:
*Reads and writes in several ancient languages, and speaks them passably.
*Is fluent in Arabic (has been since childhood)
* Also fluent in French (his father’s native language)
* A working knowledge of contemporary German, Chinese and Spanish
* Is a vegetarian
*Is very tall- 6’4
