Personality
One of the biggest dorks you might encounter while in Valhaven. Marcell is a real fun guy to be around. He gets on with just about anyone. He likes to make a person feel at ease and adapts rather easily to different settings and moods. That being said though, he can also have a rather mean side to him if he feels threatened.
Having magic at his disposal only makes him more dangerous if he’s upset. Something which a person would really need to push the right buttons to make happen. Otherwise he’s as laid back as you can get. He likes to go with the flow and see how a situation will end up without using his influence.
Magic is extremely important to him, so Marcell does have some of his own morals and rituals surrounding it. He’s often intimidated by his own abilities so tries to be responsible with them. Close friends can often be an influence to Marcell in both good ways and bad ways, depending on the person and how much he likes them.
History
Family Members:
- Marcus Greystone - Father / Alive
- Trisha Greystone - Mother / Alive
Having been born and raised in Valhaven, Marcell only ever known what this town had to offer. Not that he was ever forced to stay. The reality was Marcell never had any incentive to leave. He loved the small town life and he loved his family. Growing up his parents had been close with another family with young children, the Murdochs. For as long as Marcell can remember he’s always had Griffin Murdoch in his life. The friendship grew easily; who had the biggest mudcake or who could eat the biggest worm. They did weird shit together all the time and quickly became inseparable. As they grew they started to take on their own individual interests and hobbies all while still making time for each other. Marcell had never had a brother or a sister, so Griffin was as close as it got for him.
There was a certain energy projecting from the young boy. Marcell had always possessed the ability to use magic. It wasn’t until accidents happened during his childhood which lead to his parents sitting him down and explaining why he wasn’t like other children. That he shouldn’t tell others about what he could do because it was dangerous. It was a little confusing but Marcell did as asked. Soon after that, his parents started to train him to control his abilities. He was starting to get to the age where he really needed guidance. They gave him minor spells and simple tactics to hone his strengths to start with and slowly moved him onto more difficult things.
For a while Marcell kept to his promise to stay silent, Griffin knew something was up with the extra home tutoring but really didn’t know the full extent. The day it all clicked together was when they were out playing baseball. Marcell had always been terrible at pitching until that day. Using some of his newfound abilities on the ball he pitched flawlessly. A little too perfectly. Griffin had called him out on the shenanigans almost immediately. He knew his best friend far too well to fall for any lies that Marcell tried to muster up.
So he told the truth… and that wasn’t believed either.
Marcell did the only other thing he could do, he showed Griff the truth. Holding the ball up in his hands he let it go. Rather than it falling it stayed perfectly in place in the air. Marcell went on to explain he’d practiced all weekend to propel it properly to get in a good pitch.Using his abilities to toss the ball Griff’s way the penny finally dropped. Marcell felt a weight removed knowing his best friend carried his secret too. The smile was quickly replaced with a scowl when the nicknames flowed; Harry Potter, Gandalf, Marcy the Grey.. there was no end to the torment he received. Marcell didn’t mind though, he gave back as good as he got. Sometimes using his powers to create elaborate pranks to harass Griff. Sealing the bathroom door for a few minutes, flicking pages in his book from across the room. He always tried to stick to harmless fun they could both laugh about.
Admittedly magic made Marcell nervous, when he was younger it was harder to control. Over his adolescent years he fully submerged himself into learning the art of magic. He felt if he knew enough about magic, he’d know more about himself. In time he studied a range of techniques and variations well into his adult years. Whenever he finds time he’s constantly searching for new ways to do magic.
Magic had become his biggest passion in life. That being said, he still needed to live in a world where magic wasn’t to be known. So to fund his lifestyle, and growing mini library, he took odd jobs around town. For the longest time he’d been working at the local nursing home preparing the food for the elderly. That was, until the new bar in town started advertising for more staff. With it being a better salary than what he had, he jumped at the chance. Valen had been a decent boss. Marcell picked up on the training and requirements quickly. Having worked there since it first opened he’s mostly left to his own devices in the kitchen. He prefers it that way, it gives him chance to practice his spells in his downtime. Making utensils spin on the counter is probably his favorite trick.
