Jamil Viper

Height:

175 cm

Homeland:

Scalding Sands

Age:

17

Appearance:

Jamil is a dark-skinned boy of average height. His eyes are a charcoal grey, and he usually wears subtle, brown eyeshadow and has sharp eyes that give the illusion of eyeliner[1]. His hair is black, and reaches past his waist in length. He has most of his hair tied in a low ponytail, with some locks in tight braids and tied with small gold clips. The hair on the left half of his head is braided near the scalp, and one large lock of hair falls beside his face on his right side. Hanging from one braid near his hairline are three small, gold discs. The hairband for his low ponytail is dark red, with a magenta-red gem on it. Hanging from the gem is one large, red feather. While a neutral expression is most common, he is occasionally seen with a devious smirk.

His dorm uniform:

Jamil’s uniform is similar to the rest of the Scarabia students. Jamil also wears dark-red eyeliner along with his regular makeup while in his dorm uniform. The uniform consists of a black and red sleeveless jacket, an undershirt, a yellow belt, black parachute pants, and black sneaker-sandals. The uniform also comes with several gold accessories. The sleeveless jacket is cropped, and reaches the mid-torso. The jacket has a red underlining, wavy gold stripes on the sides, gold trim, and a red sailor-like collar with a black, wavy stripe along the sides. Connecting both sides of the jacket is one gold chain. Under the jacket is a black sleeveless hoodie with red underlining, gold hoodie strings with tassels at the ends, and a gold, wavy stripe along the top of the hood. Jamil chooses to wear the hood over his head at all times. Because of this, Jamil’s ponytail falls over his left shoulder while in his dorm uniform. Jamil wears his yellow belt around his waist and over his hoodie, with the long end hanging down to his knees. The belt has a silver buckle, and along with black stripes, has the word “Scarabia” repeatedly printed on it. On both ends of the belt are small designs resembling a snake’s head and tail. His black parachute pants have a red fire design near the bottom. Hanging over the pants on both hips are maroon pieces of fabric with an intricate gold design. The black sneaker-sandals have gold plating near the toe, and a large golden scarab in the center. The uniform includes a few golden accessories, including a collar necklace, a bracelet, and a shoulder cuff worn on the right shoulder, shaped like a snake.

Personality:

Jamil is shown to be very careful with how he presents himself to others, never standing out, never doing too good nor too bad. Because of this, he comes across as another ordinary student who gets average score and does nothing special. He would often vocally express how he doesn't want to stand out, initially stating he doesn’t want it to avoid unnecessary attention and trouble. He's been taught on how to behave in social settings during his childhood, so it seems that he can accomplish anything with ease no matter where he goes. Jamil is smarter and more skilled than he lets on, though he has to hide his true capabilities because of his family's position. Jamil is used to adjusting himself and holding back, but there are times when he lets his true nature show, like his passion towards dancing. Jamil is also quite competitive and wants to be acknowledged. Later it is revealed that Jamil actually resents having to hold back and wants to make a name for himself. Because he got used to averting the focus from himself, even after expressing his desire to show his true skills, he still says he would rather stay out of spotlight.

Background:

Born into the Viper family, which has served the Asim household for generations, Jamil's been looking after Kalim from a young age. Jamil was instructed by his parents to never outdo and perform better than Kalim, in order to keep himself beneath Kalim and not draw attention away from him. This has infuriated Jamil from a young age, as he disliked that his family was considered less important compared to the Asim family. When Jamil was younger, he became Kalim's food taste-tester, which at some point resulted in Jamil being bedridden for several days after taste-testing Kalim's curry

Signature spell:

Jamil's signature spell is called "Snake Charmer." With this, he has the ability to hypnotize someone to do whatever he commands. Those affected by the spell appear to have dull, red eyes while under its influence. It's possible for Jamil to use this spell on multiple people at once. Because it involves mind-control, this signature spell is considered to be one of the more powerful ones, requiring a higher level of magical ability than others. As a result, however, excessive use of this spell can cause rapid blot accumulation.
