BEST MEMORY When he was fourteen, Gaius performed with his friend's band in a small town concert. It was his first time playing in front of a crowd and it was one of the most exciting times of his life.
WORST MEMORY When he was nine, Gaius' parents got divorced. The two months in which this took place were some of the most emotionally trying of his life.
LONG-TERM GOAL He wants to get a degree in graphic design, and keep playing music. Other than that, Gaius really hasn't figured out what he wants to do with his life. He has started thinking about doing something with his elemental power, but nothing concrete has come to mind.

MOTHER Anna Marie Mora (40), Tea Shop Owner. [Element-Thunder]
FATHER Rick Mora (41), Journalist.
SIBLINGS Marcus Mora (12), Middle School Student.[Element-Fire]
OTHER 'Umbreon' Mora (Black Cat) (2), Pet.
HISTORY Gaius was born in Dahlonega, Georgia to Rick and Anna Marie Mora. Rick was originally from New Zealand, and Anna Marie had lived in the small Appalachian town her whole life. Gaius' mother was a Thunder elemental, which she chose to hide from her husband for their entire marriage. Gaius' father was a very independent man, always going away on trips and “Not letting himself be tied down” in the small town. Then came the divorce. Gaius was nine when his parents had a falling out, which was the result of Rick never being home. The divorce was hard on both Gaius and his brother, Marcus. His father moved to Florida, where he became a journalist for the Tampa Bay Times. Their mother stayed in Dahlonega with her sons.
Soon after, Rick remarried. The boys lived with their mother, seeing little of their father after the divorce. Gaius has always been a bit bitter about him 'abandoning' him and Marcus, though they saw him little enough when he was married to their mother. At this time, Gaius, his mother and his brother all knew that he was a Thunder elemental. Him mom had known since about six months after his 13th birthday, when he had unwittingly blown out their TV with an electric shock. Marcus found out after the divorce when Anna Marie thought it was safe to tell him. Since then, scouts had been keeping tabs on them until the time was right for Gaius to go to the Academy. His mother had been saving money in secret to send him there ever since.
Finally, it was time. Gaius' mother flew him to Canada, promising that she and Marcus would be right behind him. Gaius has spent almost three years at the Academy, and his mother and brother live in Maple Hollow, where his mother owns a tea shop. Marcus is supposed to attend the Academy in two years. They found out recently that he was a Fire elemental which, since they found out so early on, seems promising.
Nowadays, Gaius lives on-campus in the Thunder Dorms, though he visits his family once every couple of weeks. He likes living by himself. He likes the quiet and the freedom, and fancies himself a grown man already, which he will be soon enough. His mother respects this. As long as he visits often, she's content.

RP SAMPLE(The following post is an excerpt from the Echoes in Darkness RP Forum)
The Demon watched the Wizard and her reptilian familiar with a mischievous smile as they left the room, lights dimming in her wake. He remained at his perch in the rafters, tail wrapped around the thick beam as if it were one of the ancient trees in his jungle, all those years ago. His forked tongue flicked out of his mouth, tasting the air. The house smelled of dust...
He had left his human shell a few blocks away in the car, along with his spear, unfortunately. It would just slow him down in a job like this. Ferric had heard through the grapevine that this woman had inherited a most interesting collection of artifacts, one of which interested him greatly: A tome of demon and fae lore. His eyes narrowed in anticipation. He might as well get started now. Slowly, the demon unfolded his arms and began his descent, using his claws and powerful lower body to suspend himself upside down across the roof.
He had to appreciate the artistry as he climbed. The spiraling woodwork, the carvings along the walls. Almost reminded him of the Incan statues and temples of old... Almost. The only difference was that those had a certain... Primal appeal that made him feel at home. Speaking of which, actually had a couple of small statuettes at his home. He shook off the thought, focusing on the task at hand.
