The Legacy

Personality:
Jolly, fun loving and cheery. On a first glance of the good old Kris Kringle these are the traits that would stick out. He is to the passing eye everything that a person would think of when meeting the Jolly Old Elf. Unfortunately there is far more beneath the coat and beard than a heart of gold. Instead that heart is as black and as cold as the night he takes his sleigh to the skies. Santa is ruthless but fair, passing his wintery wrath only onto those who he has deemed "naughty". Granted, its not hard to make Santa's naughty list. He does have a soft spot for children, meaning that he only slaughters the ones he sees as truly naughty. But once you pass the time of youth where you still believe, its open season.

History:
The man Kris Kringle, has little remembrance of his past. As far as he is aware, he is Santa and has always been Santa since the first Christmas. This is of course highly speculative, and most likely is untrue as his behaviors and actions instead indicate that he is some sort of ravenous killer thrust into magical power and driven to further madness by it. However, if he is indeed the real Santa, something has gone terribly wrong.

What Kris does know, is that he has not always had the dark tendencies he currently acts upon. Instead they took time, decades even to fully manifest themselves. It started with a simple accident. Olive, the other reindeer was never one of Santa's favorites. He was far less obedient than the others and for some reason refused Santa's gift of flight. Well one day well trying to groom Olive, he slipped with the clippers and sliced into the reindeer's hide. Something stirred in the jolly old elf that day, something primal. The site of the blood, the suffering set his heart on fire in glorious joy. From there the mayhem started, molding St. Nick into the twisted being he is today. Unfortunately few people know of his new sick obsession. Every Christmas he still departs on his sleigh and delivers presents to the good children of the world. But he also has more sinister tasks, carving up people and wreaking Christmas themed terror on them. There is something not quite right about this new Santa. For all our sakes, we can only hope that the real one still exists somewhere.

The Powers

Basic:
It's a Christmas Miracle:
Santa's magic comes "Christmas Spirit" and as such his powers hit a peak on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Not only are his powers stronger on these two days but it becomes an especially valuable day to him should he come to harm. You see, if Santa dies and no matter the way, he will return to life in a flurry of snow at the North Pole on Christmas Eve the next year. (RP Mechanic)

"Jolly Ol' St. Nick"
Being full of the "Christmas Spirit" Santa is at all times surrounded in a pleasant aura. It has the slightest smell like warm cookies, gingerbread and peppermint and feels like a warm fire after you come inside from the cold, giving him a sense of inviting benevolence to all who encounter him. (RP Mechanic)

Low:
"Twinkle and Nod"
Santa Clause is known just as well for escaping up chimneys as climbing down them. This small teleportation spell is exactly how he does it. Santa may only use this ability to escape from an enclosed area to a max distance of 182 meters. (2 post cooldown)

"Silent Night"
Santa forces absolute silence on an area around him by let a single snowflake fall to the ground. The effect falls on whatever structure Santa is currently inhabiting or 50 meters in an open area. (cooldown equals 2x duration, max duration 2 posts)

Medium:
"Jingle Bell Rock"
Santa summons a massive rock that jingles like a bell. It can moved as though it were entirely weightless to Santa but to others requires at least 6 strength to lift. (3 post cooldown, starts after rock is destroyed)

"Winter Wonderland"
Santa summons a blinding blizzard capable of burying the ground in snow in minutes. (cooldown = 3x duration, max duration 4 posts)

High:
"The Three Ghosts of Christmas"
The three ghosts just as described by Charles Dickens. Each inhabits one of the three aspects of time; past, present and future, and can be summoned by Santa singularly or as a group. Each behaves on its natural impulses to show or teach some sort of lesson to those they are unleashed upon.

The Three Ghosts:

(each ghost can be used once per topic)

"Milk and Cookies"
Why is it that Santa always wants milk and cookies left out for him? Well for their regenerative properties of course. Due to his unique elf physiology, these specific sweets restore Santa's vitality and physical form. (4 post cooldown after consumption)
