Name: "Oh, my name?" The man laughed a bit and patted your shoulder. "I'm Aeschyllus. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

(Aeschyllus, of House Orchia)

Age: Aeschyllus chuckled from the fact that the question seemed slightly unorthodox. "If you're looking to prepare some sort of ritual, I wouldn't necessarily be looking to join, but I will say that I am nineteen or twenty. I find it a bit hard to remember..."

Gender + Species: "If you couldn't tell from my voice or the way I wear my toga... I'm male, and I'm not sure what else you could say about me other than I'm pretty human."

(Male Titan)

Height: "I think I'm tall enough to venture through any mountain and conquer any beast." Aeschyllus smirked at you and crossed his arms. "Were you expecting someone of a smaller stature?"

(5'8.5")

Sexuality: "You know, I used to wonder about that before, but I like to think of my sexuality as the way you craft a weapon. I guess I used to be bendy and all of that when I was 'young' and 'in the forge,' so to speak; however, cooling down from my childhood, I think I've settled to be as straight as a sword."

Personality: Aeschyllus is an imaginative, daring character who always seems ready to fight with the willpower of man. He does not ooze with the conventional idea of machismo, but he certainly is an individual who is both practical and resourceful  in survival situations. The lad does tend to be a bit standoffish in being a do-it-yourself kind of individual; still, the man mostly knows when he needs to ask for help. The only place in his life that he cannot do such a thing is related to his past, where he can be somewhat somber in a poetic manner.

Likes: Sword-fighting, exploring the wilderness and other civilizations, the constellations, engineering new solutions to problems, berries

Dislikes: Deep political exchanges, his old hometown, stoicism, repetitive tasks, rats

Power(s): Aeschyllus gets his power from the orbital, rotational, and contained energy of Mars, which is especially stronger when Mars can be seen in the sky. Despite Mars being a planet, Aeschyllus is technically gifted with the "essential capabilities of a star"—to create new substances by means of fusion, and to destroy said substances by means of explosive bursts. However, concerning what he has made for himself (see Backstory and Other for justifications), Aeschyllus only has minimally enhanced muscles and eyesight.

Occupation: Adventurer-for-Hire

Backstory: Born the son of an Ancient Greek aristocrat, Aeschyllus had a rocky childhood engaging in the courts of classical thought. Known for his imaginative spirit in a social class which expected maturity from men and boys alike, he often butted heads with his city-state's stoic philosophers. Since the idea of the stoic man eventually dominated the courts, Aeschyllus became an ostracized youth who disgraced the House of Orchia. Full of shame, the House's patriarch cast out Aeschyllus to either live among their enemies or wander in the wilderness for the rest of his days. Choosing the latter option for the preservation of his own freedom, the young man lived off of a combination of squirrel meat and berries. 

Still keeping onto that sense of imagination he had, he started to think of the constellations as his friends; it was a survival mechanism that his subconscious put him into. However, it was as if the celestial bodies were thankful for his company, as Aeschyllus started to see himself gaining strength from the stars being out at night. Eventually, the lad formed a cosmic bond with the planet Mars. While Mars was only a twinkle upon an earthly canvas of midnight, it did grant Aeschyllus his powers of elemental creation and destruction.

Knowing that he now had sufficient abilities to return to his city, overturn its courts, and get the stoics' respect, Aeschyllus the Titan decided to close himself off from the rest of the human realms. He used nearly all of his power to make and maintain his own land of adventure, one that was untouched by other aspects of reality. In this artificial place, nature is a powerful force, and there is always another quest to undertake. It is in that realm that Aeschyllus resides, locked in a dream that he wants  to stay in—for good.

Other: The land that Aeschyllus lives in is confined within a mystical dome, and this dome can only be breached from the inside or out with considerable power. Paradoxically, the space of the dome stretches inward and around itself to give off the illusion of it being a large expanse. That being said, the complexity of this dome is largely why Aeschyllus is nearly non-superhuman; an overwhelming amount of his power goes to maintaining the dome of his fantasy world.

Scenario 1:

One way or another, you end up within the domain of Aeschyllus (i.e. the land contained in the mystical dome). We can discuss what happens such that your OC happens to enter the land, and we can also pick up some initial activity that your OC can do. It should probably be survival-related since much of Aeschyllus's world is untouched by its humans.
