The Person
Personality:

History:
Pyrite was born to parents Fern and Xavier Hunter on the 17th of March at dusk. He was the third child born to the family and the only boy. When he was five years old, his mother had twin girls, to add to the family, which already had three identical girls three years older than himself. Two years afterwards, Pyrite and his family moved into the town surrounding St Vector's Academy for Supernatural Beings as his older sisters had begun to develop psychic powers (Telekinetic, Telepathic and Healer). His parents had no problem with this, thinking it rather cool that their children had powers when they didn't. Everyone hoped the last three children - Pyrite included - would come to own the same type of power. Fern and Xavier's wishes were soon granted, only not the way they expected.
When Pyrite turned ten, the twins had already begun to show signs of psychic power, but Pyrite was different. He'd repeatedly went to his parents, claiming he was seeing ghosts and people known to be dead. After being told it was nothing but nightmares, regardless of how many times he said it was happening during the daylight hours too, he decided to get answers. He went to the back yard during dusk and held his eyes out to the sky. He called to any ghosts so he could prove to his parents that it wasn't simply nightmares. But things got out of hand quickly. Too quickly.
His younger sister Maia had gone outside (playing hide and seek). She was running towards the playset when she noticed Pyrite talking to thin air. She called out to her brother, forgetting about the game and asked what he was doing. Pyrite had been trying to banish a vengeful spirit who wanted to possess his body. Unable to succeed with Pyrite, Maia was exactly what the spirit wanted. Pyrite tried to get Maia out of the way but he was too late and the spirit consumed her. Running for help, he led his parents out to the yard in time to fins Maia a scary white-blue, laying on the grass with her hands around her neck. He has since been admitted to St Vector's as a Necromancer and only visits his family on occassion.

RP Sample:
It was an insanely early time to be up and dressed on a saturday. Pyrite guessed no more than six thirty, as the sky was still quite dark, but to the East the horizan was beginning to spread the gold and pink colour across the velvet blue backdrop. But that's how Pyrite worked. He always made an extra effort to wake up just before the sun rise so he could watch it, just like he kept himself awake to watch the sun set.
A soft, warm breeze weaved through the thin blue sweater he was wearing; he felt to goosebumps line his arms, but he wasn't really cold. A faint smile touched his lips as a ghost of an old student waved to him on their way into town. Those were the ghost's he liked and prefered. They didn't feel the need to harm other's - dead or alive. Pyrite shook his head to clear away the thoughts and memories that had begun to climb into his mind.
The outdoor gardens were beginning to wake up and the world grew lighter. Standing, Pyrite begun to roam down the stone walk winding through the hedges; the flowers that survived the first bite of winter revealed their beautiful colours, their petals enhanced by the frost crystals that clung to them. "There is nothing to match the beauty that is nature." he said, smiling to himself. The world wasn't such a bad place when he thought about it. It just had things that made everyone question it's kindness.
