The Looks

Alan L'or is a somewhat wide-framed man, standing six foot two and with wide shoulders, his body quite muscled. He has a wide, deep scar that goes from his chest to his right hip, as well as a few smaller scars scattered on his body. His hair is not well-kempt, though, a gold blonde and roughly cut as to not be too long. His skin is a european white, though rather tanned, and not the cleanest. It is only recently and reluctantly he has been introduced to hygiene, so he will often be somewhat smelly, but not all the time. It depends on how long it's been since he's been finally budged into taking care of hygiene. His eyes are a light, golden brown.
His uniform is a literal knight's armor, covering his body, and with a sword but not a shield. The armor is gold, but it's only a coat of paint, underneath being steel.

The Legacy

Personality:
Alan's demeanor depends on how closely he's trying to hold to the code of chivalry and honor he holds quite dear. When casual and not fighting or being a knight, Alan is rather gruff and brusque, his way of handling the events that have happened to him, and ignorant of social structures, both out of a lack of caring and a lack of knowing. When he's trying to hold to the code of chivalry, Alan puts on the ideal picture of a knight- strong, self sacrificing, and honorable, always willing to put up a fair fight and not to fight dirty. Both ways, he's very, very angered by lying, and honest to the bone, almost incapable of deception or subterfuge. He is protective of his honor, taking very badly to things that would demean it. He's also somewhat paranoid, due to his near death and the effect of the spirits, and he often overreacts to threats or sees them when they're not there. He would hold to the law, but he has the unfortunate setback of not knowing it, therefore he simply follows lawful morals and tries not to break the law when he can- but his sense of justice is often superior to laws in his mind, and he can be brutal when dealing with villains- leaving villains alive not being a respected trait in medieval times.
History:
Alan had grown up, born in the year 979, a boy obsessed with knights and with their (supposed) honor, born to a minor noble family. As such, he became a squire to a somewhat important knight. In the year 1000, a 21 year old man who, having excelled through squirehood, was dubbed a knight, fulfilling his dream of becoming a knight to protect his lord and protect his honor. He found, September 12 that year, that skill needed, in a conflict between two lords over a trade route gone very wrong. Alan gladly charged into battle- a large battle that spanned many deaths and much time. Having slain several footmen, Alan eventually went into combat with a knight who, though he slayed, ripped him with a sword from hip to chest. And as such, he had lay dying on the ground.

Meanwhile, modern times. An experiment at traveling a small area of space around the size of a basketball into the year 1000 was being performed. Mixing occult magic, and high technology, it was a machine to behold, though it could ONLY handle that area of space less it critically overload. A glitch in the code caused the space to expand anyway- to the size of a prone, large man. And as such, Alan was placed into the space- but only briefly, as the machine overloaded, causing the contents of the space to appear in modern times. But yet, he had been dying- that, being ripped into another time, and the occult areas of the machine, placed him dead to the occult world but left him able to be medically revived- and he was.

He found this strange new world incredibly hard to deal with, and full of witchcraft. But with the aid of the spirits he found he could talk to, he strengthened himself in his fighting, in his knowledge of the occult, and of this weird new world. And with the help of the government he found a house, began to slowly, slowly adjust. However, his dream of knighthood would not be denied- and with his powers, he found himself becoming a knight again, painting his armor gold, and setting out to rid the world of evildoing witches.

The Powers

Power 1: Considered Dead: For purposes of magic, it's as if he's dead, strangely enough. For example, if a spell banished all things dead from an area, he'd get banished, but not an anti-zombie spell. Beings that contact spirits and such can sense him. This is due to the results of the failed time-travel experiment rendering him into a curious half-dead state: Actually alive and moving, but connected to death and considered dead by things of the occult.

Power 2: Sight and Communication with Spirits: Spirits, due to his half-dead state, are seen by him as if they were corporeal, though he is capable of telling they are spirits. He can even talk to them, hear them talk, and learn from them- hence his fighting skill being better than the average knight, and having a good occult knowledge. (1 ability)

Power 3: Astral Energy Manipulation: He is able to manipulate the energy spirits are made out of- astral energy, and solidify it into a multitude of shapes, often beyond what is possible by non-energy construction- aka incredibly sharp blades of energy, very powerful blows of energy, shields that are not destroyable by all but the most powerful conventional weapons. The occult nature of this energy allows it interact with many occult devices. This manipulation is also capable of being released in a blast of pure energy, which does well against conventional armor, and reacts in fun ways with the occult. Alan is also capable of manipulating his own astral energy to defend against magical effects. Though Alan can control it with his will, he needs a nearby spirit to draw the actual power from, and he can't touch living spirits. (8 ability)
