DESCRIPTION:
→ Zayden has black hair, it is a sort of shaggy and messy kind of style. Mainly because he is running a hand through it a lot and it just starts to become shaggy. Having a pair of deep and light blue eyes. The dark/deep blue near his pupils and as the color goes out lights up to a light glowing like blue. Under his suit his body is in a slim and lean shape. He might look like a business man at first and you just think he can't defend himself cause he is weak. Nope. He is quite strong and it would be wise to avoid Zayden's hardest whack with the umbrella. He also wears a pair of black gloves, on both they have dark blue transmutation circles, almost unnoticeable. Under those gloves are scarred transmutation circles on the back of his hands. The resolute of an accident The tone of his skin is really close to the pale side, thanks to Benji being an indoor person and growing use to it. His skin does gain a light, VERY light tan though when he goes out on his own to do his part in Catalysts.
...........................................................................
PERSONALITY:
→ Being close to Benji (or Benjamin Gerard) has made Zayden quite sadistic in some situations. Usually he is a well mannered man and can be pretty polite but sometimes that just gets old for him or annoying. Acting different with some people so it wont be troublesome or annoying. Though if you irritate him, don't get the point he is trying to get across, or he is just not having a good day he shows his sadistic side. Also if you mess up his umbrella. He has plenty of extras after plenty of accidents or..incidents (let's just say he had the need to hit something). He might sound calm about it at first. But don't be mistaken, depending on the damage amount will judge on how hard you are about to be hit.
He has a tendency to be able to 'read' people easier. Most people say you can't judge a book by its cover. A lot of times its easy for Zayden to look at someone watch them a little bit and he can just you a general jist of a person. Not detail of course, unless the person does something blunt that hints to it. He has gained this kind of skill from growing up, finding it really useful. It is also helpful in his job of being the Judgement Arcana in the group Catalysts.Another thing he has learned with being with Benji is to prepare for many situations. So he has grown into the habit of thinking things out carefully before doing something. Sometimes he doesn't have time to and just jumps with the first thought. Which is where his habit of jumping into a situation he happens to come across comes in. Sometimes he has his 'hero' moments and steps in to help someone.
When him and Benji met he had been assigned to watch and take care of him. Through that he has gained a feeling of wanting to protect Benji a lot. Even if he is now the Fool and has the Chariots to protect him. That also doesn't stop him from whacking Benji on the head with the umbrella sometimes.
LOVE:
→ Cigarettes (smokes rarely though)
→ Chess or checkers
→ Rain/Storms
→ Benji
→ Gummy bears
→ Sweets
→ Heat
→ Video Games
HATE:
→ Benji at points, mostly when he loses control of his anger
→ Being told what to do
→ Anyone applying harm or wishes to apply harm to Benji
→ Slackers in Catalysts
→ People undeserving to be alive in this world
→ Freezing temperatures
→ Kids..
→ Religious groups/people..they annoy him
DEEPEST SECRET:
→ The scars on the back of his hands. Rarely does he remove his gloves to show them off or even let them be visible. It is his secret for a fight. If someone some how and for some reason takes his gloves he has a second choice.
...........................................................................
HISTORY:
→ Zayden was born in London, Creta to a couple who were well prepared for a girl. That happens, so they had to sell all of the girl stuff. Being in the working class, they were unable to replace everything so growing up Zayden didn’t have the vast amount of clothing he would have had, and his room was a rather calming shade of purple. Though, this wasn’t a big deal because when he was old enough to request a color the promptly changed it. Honestly, though, his childhood wasn’t much of a big deal. He grew up in London with his parents and older brother, who was your average older brother. They fought some days and were fine other days. It was a stable family and everybody got along as well as they were supposed to. Nothing more, nothing less.
When he hit the age to attend school he was an average student who got both good grades and average ones and blended in rather well. Around late middle school, early highschool he began to develop his ability to read people because, from his blending so well, he was around both the nicest students and the most downright cruel. And from this he also learned how to deal with both in ideal manners. Around 16 that was when he was first approached by the Catalysts and if anything at first it was just getting in with a bad crowd. He was hanging out with siblings of current members and those friends of his became members and he somehow got dragged into it finally when he was around 18. He joined and was a Justice for a couple years before he was decidedly good enough to deserve the position of Death. He began studying alchemy and alkahestry around this time.
After he gained his new position he was sent out on a mission to take care of someone by himself. Proving he could take care of himself and was quite strong. Though for a second he had underestimated his opponent and was knocked out. When he woke up he was kneeling near a table and his arms strapped down and separated from each other. This confused him and he had looked around for the target not seeing him right now. In the surrounding area was a fire that had a long pole sticking out. It kind of looked like a cellar but at the same time there were windows so knew he was above ground still. The target had returned and mentioned he was surprised to see him awake again so soon. Walking to the pole sticking out and pulled it out. It was used to brand what was on the other end of it. Talking about he had noticed his gloves and that he had to be quite fond of fire and alchemy. Thinking back to his notes he remembered this guy was known to be into torturing people. “I choose a brander for you because you have to love fire, let’s see how well your skin does against it though without the gloves.” Once told that the man had branded his first hand which of course hurt like hell, then his second hand followed. He had said he made them transmutation circles like on his gloves just for him. Big mistake though. Even though his new wounds hurt horribly he still used them to his advantage and escaped. His hands wrapped up for a good month or two.
When he was 18 that was when he first met the young teen that was Benjamin. At first, admittedly, they didn’t get along. Benjamin always argued his authority to the point of it being downright annoying, but eventually they seemed to have a mutual agreement that if Benjamin listened to him and accepted his help, he would go with him with a mission. This mission, both of them were actually sent to the desert to find some criminal that had escaped into the desert. Along this journey they had begun to talk more and actually ended up becoming friends. But then that was when they actually found this criminal and the headstrong stubborn ass Benjamin ended up getting severely injured. After just making friends with the teen, of course he didn’t really want him to die. Do he got him to help and he survived. Starting at this point he became rather protective of his younger friend and also at this point he began attempting to control Benjamin’s needless violence by using the straight jackets Benjamin already wore to tie back his hands or just used his straps when he wasn’t wearing his ‘hug me’ jacket. He also usually has to strap his legs together. If he can’t move he can’t use his straps as weapons.
When he was 20 that was when Benjamin started moving up and eventually rather violently killed their previous leader and took charge. At first not very sure about this was simply Benjamin’s Chariot (body guard) and eventually moved up to Judgement though he is pretty much always with Benjamin anyways unless sent away to actually do things related to his Judgement job. He also began studying up on his two extra languages due to their leaders lack of language skills so in some cases he has actually become the translator for Benjamin.

REVISE
Hey. Welcome (or welcome back, you said you recycled a character) to MDA, first off. App looks pretty nice. And unusual. We appreciate that here. Umbrella-wielding gang member? Premise seems more than solid to me.
Few things to point out, though.
1) Your alchemy's a little odd, but for starters that section is only supposed to be one ability and one paragraph. It's fine if you have one transmutation circle inked onto two different surfaces, but you don't need a separate heading for that. More importantly, though, you say he controls the wind. You're only allowed one active transmutation process. You can't wax and wane the wind as well as actually manipulating the fire - unless your transmutation circle simply manipulates the oxygen formation in flame. That sounds feasible enough.
Either way, it needs to sound more scientific. As it stands, there's not enough definition in there, and it's kinda a little confusing. If you could clarify, please ^_^
2) Not so much a point to revise as a general nitpick. His deepest secret, the scars on the back of his hands, isn't really mentioned at all in his history. I understand if you want to maybe establish the character with an essence of mystery, and I thoroughly understand if you've got this entire thing planned out to a t and are just being as concise as possible, not exactly playing your hand straight away, that sorta thing. Just, maybe it should come into your history more - not that it needs any more substance, it hits the word count target fine.
3) No need for the 'Non-Militant' addition in your overall heading. If you could remove it, that'd be good.
Other than that, this all seems pretty damn good! All up to scratch, you hit all the targets for word count. Like I said, welcome to MDA.

Re: Cross, Zayden
Alrighty I think all the points are fixed now. Added how he obtained the scars in his history now, alchemy explained more I believe. Then I took off the Non-Militant part. Hope that its fine now ^^

1. Trivia: Color the languages you speak in the color that you speak them in and also put it in your signature. (copy-paste fail~)
2. MY PROPOSAL!!!! So what is Catalyst was actually a Yakuza group!? And you were actually in the Yamaguchi-gumi!? Or you were in a branch of the Yakuza in Creta and they got absorbed into the Yamaguchi-gumi!? *_* Then you could rp with my character Makoto and it would be awesome. I just feel like Zayden is totally good material for them. Feel free to decline; I won't be offended.
3. Just note there's a character on here named Ayden -points at Ross- So your names are horrifically similar. Just to point it out. We also have characters on here with the same name (Alex).
4. I love your alchemic ability!!!! *_* and how ironic that it works with Mako's LOL.
