Biography

In his early teenage years Noah loved to sing and dance, and inspired by his vocal idols Mariah Carey and Kylie Minogue, among others, belted out strong, yet piercing vocals, often to the dismay of anyone within earshot. However, after a couple of weeks feeling the creative flow, he would suddenly fall silent; you wouldn’t hear anything more than a faint mumble roll past his lips, that is whenever he was actually required to speak. Though his father showed some concern about the sudden ups and downs, his mother was quite relieved to finally have some peace and quiet from that “wannabe songster.” Things would usually go like this between them.

It wasn’t until he was a few years older that things changed. Dylan had walked into the bathroom not realizing that Noah was still sitting in the tub. Noah had just been humming a tune not a few minutes before so Dylan assumed it to be empty. Embarrassment quickly turned into panic however, as Dylan noticed the crimson hue of the water his twin bathed himself with. Not long after that, Noah was diagnosed with Bipolar II Disorder.

Today, Noah continues to fine-tune his vocals, not necessarily for some big break, but simply to pay homage to some of the more influential icons that he admires. Dylan seems to be his biggest fan, as he is often the one “encouraging” (i.e. pestering) him to start a soundcloud. Despite this, they still greatly enjoy each other’s company; they even took up working out together as a way to support Noah’s mental well-being. Considering the fact that they’re twins, it comes as no surprise that he is quite close with Dylan. He is the only one who can quickly identify when Noah slips into his inevitable lows and is probably the only one who knows about the more morbid details about his condition. They advise, console and support each other, and are always ready to stick up for one another, no questions asked.

Noah is usually seen donning his signature furs and designer frames. He doesn't actually need a prescription, but he insists that they “serve cunt.” He tries his best to steer his brothers in the right direction when it comes to fashion, but Trevor is the one that seems to elude him the most. He tends to be quite sharp when delivering jabs of the tongue so unsurprisingly, his “sailor mouth” has gotten him in trouble in the earlier years of his life; however, he has learned to be more discerning with the targets of his verbal assaults.

Magical Abilities

Noah practices Thaumaturgy, which is his own version of Cryomancy that merges science and magic together into a beautiful and deadly practice. Always known as a winter enthusiast, Noah naturally showed signs of proficiency with the art of Cryomancy. Though he doesn’t like to show it much, he is incredibly intelligent, taking a serious interest in cryogenics. Ice magic is considered to be a weaker magic by many (when considered offensively), and with Noah being Noah, he took it personally. With that, he decided to use his vast knowledge of Cryomancy and his deep interest in cryogenics to push the boundaries of Ice magic to its limits. He did that, and in doing so, created a completely unique approach to the practice, i.e. Thaumaturgy.

By synthesizing his knowledge of both the scientific and magical properties of ice, Noah gained an understanding of it like no other, utilizing a unique Thaumaturgic approach that scaffolds the art beyond its limits. He can create temperatures so low that they burn enemies beyond recognition. He especially likes being able to play with the rate of freezing too, drawing out the agonizing process if he’s feeling particularly moody. The less Noah can feel, the colder he can become. He can manage creating temperatures that drop to absolute zero by completely detaching from all emotion, but he must rely on Dylan being by his side to rekindle his feelings before mutilating himself.

Noah fights using the Albert Style - a sword fighting style that doesn’t utilize a shield. This style emphasizes using fewer, more powerful strikes to defeat opponents. He supplements this with slashing kicks from his skates.

Magical Abilities

“Ice is a vacuum; it absorbs and nullifies energy, both concrete and abstract. It is resistance, tenacity, and cold, hard truth. The world is cold and full of terrors, and if you don't harden your heart, it will ultimately shatter. To temper your heart with the cold is to strengthen your resolve and protect yourself from intrusion to the depths of your psyche, not to lock yourself out of your own consciousness, but to hold on tight to it. Ice is also the persistent protector, defending anything within its reach. But it can also cripple, weather, and burn, wearing down even the strongest of defenses. Without a strong mind and heart, Ice will melt away into nothingness, so you must steel your resolve to protect those you cherish.”

Theme of the Thaumaturge Theme of the Cold-Hardened General


Nebilim - The Cold-Hardened General

A former general disavowed by her land for being a double agent, Nebilim is a being of incredible intellect and amazing power. Fearing her power if left unchecked, her army sealed (and presumably killed) her in a hidden cavern in an isolated part of the harsh and frigid mountains of her hometown. After her untimely death, her spirit lived on, enraged by the traitorous intent of her organization. In the hollow and empty walls of the icy cavern, the only solace she found was singing to herself, often lullabies she remembered hearing as a young girl. As a spirit, she assimilated to the merciless and frigid conditions, assuming an affinity to the ice and snow. Merging her natural and supernatural power, Nebilim is now a force to be reckoned with. Over time, her initial desire for revenge has now devolved into an utter lust for chaos and carnage.

Noah’s vocal ability allows him to reach and connect with the spirit of Nebilim. Since both of them have abilities based in Cryomancy, Noah can summon her into this world with the help of Luke. Using Luke’s connection to the spirit world, Noah can sing a tribute to her likeness, allowing them to utilize her unfathomable power, said to be capable of initiating another Ice Age, to aid them in battle.
