Eric Solva

Eric is a former traverling mage who makes his living bringing in bounties. He is searching for a new home after the destruction of his village at the hands of slavers.

Appearance
Eric is a young man of average height with short, slicked back, bronze hair and steel gray eyes. He wears dark red leather armour under a cloak made of metal thread. He keeps two, magically expanded containers on his belt that contains a huge amount of iron sand he uses in combat with his Magnetism magic. As a side affect of his magic, his hair is actually composed of bronze wires.

Personality
Eric is usually a fairly laid back person and is always quick to laugh and joke. However, this personality is a cover for a ruthless and highly intelligent warrior. He avoids letting people get to close for fear of the heart ache he has experienced twice after loosing his family, friends and mentor at the hands of bandits.

History
Born into a family of Blacksmiths in a small village in the country, Eric started life as an ordinary child. That is until his village was destroyed by slavers and his parents killed along with all of the adults while the children were taken as slaves. Eric was treated horribly by his captors and was forced to watch as his friends died one by one thanks to the horrific conditions and treatment. However, thanks to his strength and willpower, Eric survived and grew up strong. During his time as a slave, he met an old man named Charles Lehnsherr, a former S class wizard, who taught him Lost Magic: Magnetic World and Metal Maker magic. He mastered it by the time he turned 14 and used it to obliterated the slaver gang after they killed his teacher.

Magic and Abilities
Massive magical power

Enhanced durability: Erics body is naturally tough and his bones have the same hardness as steel, making them nearly impossible to break. That said, it also makes him so heavy that he cant swim.

Magic Blacksmith: Eric can forge magical items from metal, so long as he has access to a forge and Lacrima

Skilled Weapons User: Eric is proficient with most weapons, although he does prefer to fight from a distance using his sand and Maker Magic

Magnetic World(マグネチック よmagunechikku yo) This a lost magic that allows the wielder to manipulate metals. While it is most easily used with magnetic metals, this magic can be used to control any metal. It can also be used to generate magnetic fields to push and pull targets and to repel incoming projectiles. As a side affect of using this ability, compasses dont work around Eric and his hair has turned to metal.

Metal Make(金メイク Kin Meiku) This magic type allows the user to create metal with their magic. Their is no limit to the types of metal or the shapes that can be made with this magic, although the type does determine the magic cost. There arnt really any limitations to the type of metals that can be created, however, metals with magical properties like Mythril, Adamantite and Vibranium cost a large amount of magic to create and are usually only created if he needs a strong defence and are infereor to the original matereal. He can use both static and Dynamic styles.
 * Steel Coffin(鋼 棺 hagane kan) Eric uses his Iron Sand to trap his opponent in a coffin made of compressed metal.
 * Iron Maiden(アイアンメイデン aianmeiden) A follow up to Steel Coffin, Eric causes the Coffin to gain spikes and compress, killing the person inside.
 * Metal Dragon Fang(金竜牙 Kin Ryu Kiba) Creates a large, Easten style dragon construct and uses it to attack.
 * Iron Rain(鉄雨 Tetsu Ame) Eric fires a barrage of bullet sized, compressed metal balls at supersonic speeds.
 * Magnetic Field creation and manipulation.


 * Lost Battle Field(ロスト戦原 rosuto Ikusa Hara) An AOE attack, Eric slams his hands into the ground and causes a large number of weapons to erupt around him. He can then make use of those weapons to attack and defend.
 *  Adamantium Wall Creates a wall made of Adamantite, a suposedly indestructable metal. However, due to the limitations of his magic, the wall can only take so much punishment before it breaks and requires a huge amount of magic to actually create.
 *  Vibranium Shield Creates a small shield that can block any magic attack. Is vulnrable to physical attacks however and requires even more magic than Adamantite to create
 * Silver Wolf(銀狼 Gin Ookami) Dynamic casting, creates a pack of wolves out of silver to attack. They absorb magical attacks, but are weak to physical attacks.
 * Metal Make: Gold Lion(金獅子 kin shishi) Creates a pride of lions out of gold to attack. Absorb physical attacks, but are weak to magic.
 * Metal Make: Adamantium Dragon His most powerful Maker Magic spell, creates a large dragon out of Adamantite to attack. Resistent to both magic and physical attacks, this spell requires a large amount of magical energy and is usually a last resort.

Requip:(換装魔法 Kansō Mahō) Uses this magic to store his sand and blacksmithing tools.
