Character Appearance
Seymour is as plain as they come, from his height to the shape of his face with a naturally neutral expression. His hair is short and well kept often combed to the left, his most identifiable being his emerald green eyes. Seymour walks with confidence in his stature even at 5'10" and 160 pounds Seymour's stride is one of purpose. He dresses professionally in a buisiness suits and long coats and a fedora. He is no athlete but he maintains his fitness well enough to do his job, perhaps a little hard on his liver with the spirits.
Character Personality
Seymour's personality is genuinely caring but because of the way he speaks he can often seem posh or snobbish. Stating things in a matter of fact type of way. His heart is in the right place but sometimes his mouth betrays his intentions. Though he only takes the most serious of cases he cannot refuse something brought to him by the order of the Raven. Often seen in a bar if asked personally he would never take a strange or eerie case again. But Seymour's abilities for some reason turn him into a supernatural magnet. Making him standoffish at first, with a reluctant attitude.

When Seymour was 16 his father was moved to Germany where he graduated highschool with an honors and was valedictorian.

Character Abilites
Seymour is a Clairvoyant with the ability to use spiritual energy and convert it into magic.
Types of Clairvoyance Seymour can use
- Precognition- This is only to a certain extent, Seymour cannot predict the future, but he might have a dream about someone he's never met should their paths cross
- Retrocognition- The ability to see past events though, there has to be a significant past event. Alternatively should he make contact with an intelligent spirit they can enhance this ability
- Clairaudience- Litereally meaning Clear Hearing this ability allows him to hear and speak with the spirits of the deceased or metaphysical entities such as angels and demons.
- Clairsentience- Clear Seeing, the ability to see the spirits of the deseased or percieve the manifestations of metaphysical beings in which ever form they present to him.
- Claircognizance- This is the ability of knowing, many will try to fool you by "Knowing things." But it doesn't work that way. Seymour has to open himself up to that perception if he wants to know something, Often times it's a draining process and once the connection is broken he doesn't remember the message he told the person in question. However there are other ways of knowing. For example Seymour might have a dream about a place or a person that he doesn't remember then end up working a case involving that place or person. He isn't always right and not 100% accurate with the level of involvement.

About the Writer (OOC)
I am writing a book and this is the character I am writing about. I started writing short stories on a blog called medium. But that's enough of self plugging.
I have done this style of writing before actually it's what sparked my passiong for storytelling in the first place. So here I am getting back into it with a character I am writing a novel on. An interesting way to get inside his mind. What other adventures can I find in the realms.
I work monday to friday my day starts at 4 am. I bring my Chrome book with me. I will try to respond 1 to three times a week. But sometimes it gets tough.

Could we do a couple of RP's where Seymour is hunting Fen? It could be super fun!
