Playby: Gerard Butler
Name: Magnus Erik Claudin
Age: Appears 30-38
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: None- fixates on one person, not a gender.
Species: Phantom
Physical Description: No one is quite sure what he looks like, other than his dark hair and dark eyes. His face is half covered with a mask to hide burns he sustained during the fall of London. What you can see of his face is handsome and dashing. He wears tux and tails and various other costumes one might wear to the opera. His clothing is always pressed perfect and one would never ever see him in anything but formalwear from one era or another.
Attitude: He is shy and quiet unless the object of his desire sings. Then one can hear him join in with a rich tenor-baritone voice that echoes through the halls of the opera house. He doesn’t like anyone to invade his privacy but he will never go far from his angel of music. He is fiercely protective of her but he will not leave the shadows unless he is needed, and then only if he is needed by her. There are some instances where he will appear to the owners of the Apocalyptica to make demands on the shows that must be put on and the music that must be played. As per the agreement made when he was moved there, his demands are always met, were they not, he would fall into a fit of rage. He is a volatile sort of man with a bad temper, but he would never hurt his angel.
Abilities: His ability is to sing melodies and play music that captivates any audience, no matter the genre. He could sing Opera to even the hardest of rock singers, such as Till Lindeman and he would enjoy every minute of it.
History: The phantom has no memory of ever being born. He only knows that he has been around for a very long time. His kind used to draw ships in to the rocks, just to have a captive audience. Quite often they would fall in love with their victims and keep them until they died. Unfortunately, many died when the ships sank. Over time they moved into the cities and found places of refuge in the opera houses, theatres and auditoriums where music was performed. He was no different. He moved into the London Opera house where he took over running the place. Any owner who listened to his advice prospered and those the didn’t mysteriously ended up dead. When the apocalypse happened, he didn’t have to move anywhere. He had to guard his territory and send away any other phantoms who tried to invade his claim.
It was in this very opera house where he was when the creatures of fire came and destroyed the city. His opera house all but burned to the ground. He managed to save many of his possessions in the keep below the opera house and hide within their shadows. When the vampires came, one spoke softly and assured him that if he came with his possessions, he would have a lovely new opera house where he was shown adoration and respect. The man explained that he knew what he was and what he needed to exist happily. He decided to go with his possessions to a new opera house that was thousands of miles away. He swore that he would hide in the shadows and never show himself after the terrible burns he sustained in the fire. And he refused to show himself to the owners. He stayed hidden, that is, until he saw…..her.
