Personality-
Adrian is what could be considered a very cold person. He doesn’t become friends with people easily, and actually he prefers the company of the dead instead of the living. He doesn’t trust people, of course he is aware that some people can be good and have the good intentions. But he is certainly also aware of the fact that most people are selfish and egoistical bastards that only wants to take advantage of him and his talents.
Even though he obviously lacks living friends, it has not affected him that much. Adrian is not a shy person; he doesn’t seem to become scared of crowds. He is well aware of the fact that most people would not be able to have so much contact with dead people as he has, this way if seeing things is what gives him confidence. Adrian knows that a guy may be enormous but that same guy will break down crying if someone from his family or even a close friend died. Adrian would not do that, he would not cry because of death, because Adrian sees death as a freeing of the human soul from its painful host. If you ask Adrian he would say that you shall not cry because of death, you shall celebrate it.
Of course he is not that bad, even though it may seem like that. Adrian is a very reliable and sweet guy; it is just harder to see. He will take care of anyone who should be lucky enough to form a bond of trust with him, and if he promises something then you can be certain that he will keep it. Adrian has what could be called a slight Cleaning OCD which means that everything around him have to be very clean.

Abilities/Powers/Skills-
Necrokinesis: this ability allows the user to manipulate mentally anything that is dead, since it has once lived Adrian will be capable of manipulating it. This is done by giving the subject a little part of his own life-force. Because of Adrian being the owner of the life-force added, he is capable of full control over the functions of the dead person/animal/vegetation he controls.
Necromancy: this allows Adrian to give the dead subject a sentience and therefore making it capable of making decisions on its own. The sentience that is being granted to the undead subject is its own personality and memories.
Limits-
Necrokinesis: this is limited to the fact that only dead things can be affected being temporarily dead, or brain dead does not count. Also this ability requires a lot of focusing and concentration if it is to be used on more than one dead target. Adrian is capable of manipulating no more than ten dead things at a time; of course it is significantly easier if those ten dead things are from the same species. Also size matters when he takes control over a dead body, the less meat and such things there is on the body the easier it is for him to control. So a skeleton will be easier for him to control than a recently dead person with all the meat and such things on.
Splitting up his life force puts a lot of strain on it, so therefore it automatically returns the lost pieces after one hour, which means his power simply shuts off and goes into hibernation until his life force has become unstrained. When Adrian reaches that one hour limit he will also end in a coma, because the power also will have emptied all the energy in his body after that one hour.
If the corpse he is controlling gets totally destroyed like exploded or burned to ashes, then the life force in it will be lost causing his body to begin to go necrotic (Rot) According to the amount of lost life force. For example he will begin to rot significantly more when loosing the life force of ten corpses instead of just one.
Necromancy: This is simply limited to, if the dead being did not have any sentience then he cannot give it one, since the sentience is based on its former personality and memories. When he gives it a sentience then he also losses a lot of his control over that being, since it cannot make decisions on its own and it can therefore decide to be hostile towards Adrian, even going as far as attacking him. The mind will stay in the body until Adrian turns both his abilities fully off.
Appearance-
He is 189 cm tall and he weights 80, he is of normal build, which means he is not build for fights or things that might requires taking and returning strong hits. He has light brown eyes and black very bristling hair that seems to nearly always defy gravity in the weirdest ways. His skin is extremely pale and very vulnerable to strong sun, which means that he can´t stay out in direct sunlight for longer periods of time. Also Adrian does not get sun tanned; he gets the kind of red that looks much like the color of a lobster.
Adrian normally wears very formal clothing; at least he does in his spare time. His clothes aren’t expensive though, simply because he doesn’t make money enough to buy expensive suits, so what he wears are always used suits that he has bought cheaply. Adrian is not one for accessories, actually he would not think of wearing one, even if it meant total humiliation. His clothes are mostly made in the colors black or white, he doesn’t really wear any other colors than that, of course it can happen sometimes, and when it happens, then it will be very dark colors.

History-
He was born a cold December day, the fifth to be exact. It had a colder than usual month actually but none of Adrian’s parent lot that changes anything. This was most likely the happiest day of their life. Adrian lived his first ten years was some very happy years. School, friends and such was no problem for him he was well liked by many. But of course happiness does not last forever. When Adrian reached his teenage years everything became weirdly complicated. It all started with Adrian’s father being fired for inappropriate behavior. Jacob took that very hard, and could not stop worrying about how they were going to survive. In all his worrying, he was introduced to what would become his best friend, the beer. Jacob ended up becoming an alcoholic, and a bad one of the kind. All the anger and disappointed he had when he became sober was directed at Adrian. This ended in Adrian being severely abused, of course this had a great impact on Adrian it made him more distant anti-social for the lack of a better word. His mother did not like that, not on bit but she could not do anything she was scared of Jacob, and what he had become.
Whenever Adrian was not studying or being beat up by his dad, he spent his time on the cemetery. Adrian had found out that the dead listened to you, cared for you and most of all they did not beat you up. Adrian did not understand why Jacob had become such a monster, but he knew he could always find sanctuary with the dead. Of course he had to return home, he knew he could not survive on his own, especially not with his asthma, though it was weak; it still made him unable to do sports. One day when he returned home, he found Jacob dead. At first he was happy, but then he became sad he found his mother crying and babbling about her killing him. But there weren’t any evidence of that.
A hard time followed that, both Adrian and his mother had to find several jobs plus Adrian was studying, it was a very stressing time. His mother ended having a mental breakdown and was hospitalized; it was not very good at all, not being able to see ones mother when you got home, but Adrian got over it he had to for her sake failure was not an option he could chose, not when he thought about the long struggle his mother had made to get him to where he where now. Adrian finished his medical studies with good grades and he got a work at a morgue, though he did not do the autopsies himself. Adrian were just the one preparing them for their burial and of course cleaning the dead bodies, and such thing. He was also the one to show the families of the deceased the person, after an autopsy. This taught him how to act around those people.
Anything else?-
He hasn´t manifested yet.
Sample RP-
Poor man, death by fire was one of the worst ways of dying, at least that was what he had heard. But at least his soul was free of all of that misery now, that could only be celebrated unfortunately not all thoughts like that. Why did people have to cry like that? Adrian thought, as he puts an assuring hand on the woman’s shoulder. “He is at a better place now do not cry.” Adrian did not have the faintest evidence of sadness in his voice, but still it seemed to calm the woman down. She stopped crying and looked at Adrian, she could not believe her eyes, and she was afraid of believing this man’s word. “Are you sure?” She said, as she swept a tear away from her eyes. Adrian could feel that she believed him, that she was beginning to actually let the soul go to paradise.
“Now come, you need something to drink.” And with that Adrian moved the blanket over the dead guy’s head and followed the woman out of the morgue and up to the cafeteria on the hospital above, after something like that he knew that getting something calming was of great importance. Death could be a big thing to comprehend for one that was not used to it. Adrian got a cup of tea for her; he was not doing this to be sweet. But he was at work, and when he was at work he needed to be professional, especially when it came to handling the family of recently deceased.
After some time the woman had gotten control over her emotions again, and was ready to go home to plan the funeral of her husband. Adrian of course made sure that the woman was emotional ready to leave so she would not do something stupid.
