Original Character - Fairy Tail - Brian McCready



Here we have another OC that I’ve designed (with help of Cl0ckh3art ). But then I liked the idea of Brian so much that I decided to use him in at a forum RPG called Fairy Tail Guild.
Then there’s his gun, I basically had the idea that he would be using a single shot pistol and since his version of gun magic won’t be using bullets, it’ll be using his “mana” or magic strength for the ammunition.   And here’s my starting character sheet for Brian
Character
Name: Brian McCready
Nickname: N/A
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Height: 6 feet 1 inch (or 185.4 cm)
Weight: 180 pounds (or 81.6 kilo)
Guild: N/A [Hopefully Fairy Tail]
Class: D
Affiliation: Light
Appearance
Physical Description:
Brian has light-brown skin, triangular jaw, prominent nose, shaggy brown hair that comes down to the tops of his ears and hazel eyes. His build is fairly skinny almost bordering upon being lanky but depending on how well he’s eaten would determine that. His stature is often lightly hunched over when he’s walking with his hands in his pockets but when he’s fighting his stature straightens.
Clothing:
Brian often wears a long green peacoat, even if its nearly 100 degrees in the shade and everyone else is sweating, he still wears it. The only times that he takes it off is when he’s at home or if he’s going to go swimming, which are rare events indeed. Underneath the coat is a simple blue suit shirt. On top of his head, he wears a beat up brown fedora. He also wears a pair of tan colored slacks and black combat boots.
Accessories:
He also carries with him a brown worn leather satchel that contains extra clothes (socks, underwear and shirts). He also carries in the pocket of his peacoat a small notepad and a pen for writing messages. On the ring finger of his left hand is a titanium wedding band. He also wears a brown leather holster which carries his magic gun.
Extra:
On his chest (right pectoral) is a tattoo that reads “Never Forget July 1st”.
Personality
One would say that Brian is very focused or “single-minded” depending on the person that they’re talking to. Whenever he sets his sights upon a task he won’t deviate from it. Much like a bullet traveling out of the barrel of the gun, it won’t stop until something stops it or if it’s reached its target. At least, that’s what he’s like when it comes to missions and such. On the personal front he’s a rather pleasant individual who will smile gently at women, aid men in their time of need and help children laugh. During his time alone, he spends it researching gun magic and ways to improve himself.
Among Brian’s pleasures are sweet things, mainly chocolate, whether it’s in small pieces or in bars. If it’s sweet and made of chocolate he’ll buy it. With the exception of dark chocolate because it’s too bitter for his taste buds. Thus the reason why he always carries a bag of it with him. Unfortunately, on hot days it’s not a pretty sight when it smears on his hands and he develops a very loathsome frown on his face. He also likes to spend time listening to music, no matter what the genre, if he likes the song, it’s alright by him. But among his pleasures is a small vice and that’s gambling. Mainly with dice. It’s not something that gets him in trouble but he has lost a lot of money because of it.
History
Brian grew up in a modestly populated city. The first part of his childhood, he knew only happiness and no hardships. But on the year that he turned nine he suffered a serious illness that attacked his vocal cords. And despite both of his parents being doctors the illness had robbed Brian of his ability to speak. But in the face of this loss, Brian kept moving on, but because of his handicap he had to tote around a writing pad and a pen to communicate with those around him.
When Brian had reached high school he met a girl named Aria who was studying to become a technomage with a specialty in making magic weapons. Brian on the other hand had a keen interest in magic, but he wanted to do something in the “holder magic” territory. And since Aria crafted magic weapons, she invited him to try them out and Brian was instantly attracted to magic guns. And so, with that, Aria crafted a gun just for him. Soon after, Aria and Brian fell in love. After High School they decided that they were going to further their study of magic together and join one of the guilds as husband and wife.
But once again, illness claimed something else of Brian’s. It was pneumonia that claimed the life of Aria and she died on the first of July. Because of this, Brian had a tattoo done on his right pectoral, over his heart, that read “never forget July 1st”. And just like losing his voice, Brian decided to keep going and continue the dream that he and Aria shared.
To become guild wizards.
Weaponry/Equipment
Name: Magic Gun
Class: D
Description: It has the appearance of a single shot pistol roughly 7 inches long with intricately designed metal fittings in the wood as well as in the metal itself. Hanging off the butt of the gun is a small chain connected to a small bullet.
Effect/Function: Given that Brian is a Holder Type wizard, the gun is the main part of his magic in which magical energies are focused into the barrel of the gun and shot out like bullets but with more varied effects than ordinary bullets.
Stats - 45
Strength: 7

Stamina: 7
Speed: 10
Magic: 10
Earned Stat Points: 0/0
Arc Points Earned: 0/0

Skills & Disciplines
Marksmanship: Given his discipline as a gun mage he has also trained himself in marksmanship with non-magic firearms and projectile weapons. Essentially, give him a target and something to hit it with and he’ll make the effort to hit the bullseye.
Magic
Magic Name: Gun Magic
Magic Type: Non-elemental, holder type
Tier of Magic: Tier 3
Rank: 2
Magic Description: This type is purely a holder type of magic. With it, Brian uses a single-shot pistol that has been created specifically for gun magic. The
usage of it works by Brian taking aim and allowing the gun to gather its magical energies into its barrel and once it’s ready, the “trigger” is pulled and the magic is fired. The limitation of this is mainly to do with range. Since Brian is starting out as a gun mage, the maximum range for his shots is 10 meters and even then the effect of his spells is significantly diminished. And anything beyond 10 meters the spell essentially dissipates like smoke in the wind. Thus, he needs to be within close range to use it. The other limitation is “line-of-sight” since the only spell he knows travels in a straight line towards the target.
Techniques: ½
Simple shot: 1
Type: Offensive
Range: 10 meters
Effect: Magic is gathered within the barrel of the gun and once the capacity is filled, the magic is released and shot outward. Because this is a low level spell, the direction of the shot is much like a bullet where it can only travel in a straight line to its target. The effect that is felt by the person depends on the range. Within close range of about 0 to 2 meters, the effect would feel like a very hard punch or kick. Anything between 2 to 5 meters would diminish the potency of the shot down to an average punch or kick. But above 5 and to the maximum of 10 meters, the effect would feel like nothing more than a poke.
