Chris Antiquera
Kinain owner of the only computer repair shop in town (aptly named Roseland Computer Repair), Chris has accepted the lot in life of being "less than" the kithain of Roseland and his place as nothing more than a teacher for the young changelings. It seems to be his luck that he is always the forgotten one. The kid who didn't do anything with his life.
But he tries not to let it bother him - pouring his passion for mechanics into his shop and teaching those little changelings the best he can in all things.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Chris was the oldest kid.... and also the least impressive of his siblings. His younger brother (the middle child) always knew a good business idea when he saw it - making money in the black markets at school from age twelve, and already having enough money saved to buy a house and finance his college (not that he needed it; a full ride to state was sitting on his brother's desk by junior year) by the time he graduated.
His younger sister as well was never one to disappoint: she graduated from Johns Hopkins a year early and has already made her mark as a highly skilled oncologist.
Meanwhile, Chris just kind of... existed. He inherited "the sight," as his grandmother called it, from his grandfather - who passed before he was born. Chris' grandmother, while not enchanted, had always had that special spark of a Dreamer, and could see through the Mist somewhat. They shared a special, quiet bond that not many people understood.
When she died, she left her house and her little antiques shop to Chris. He didn't hesitate for a moment to pack up and move to the little town that was his escape from the pressures of being the least in an extraordinary family. The antiques shop struggled under his care, and Chris was forced to close the store within the next year. He was about to give up and go back home in defeat when the computer boom began to take hold of Roseland , and it gave Chris the opportunity he needed. He had spent hours tinkering away on the arcade machines that were to be thrown out from the Roseland Arcade, and he knew his way around computers and hardware. He reopened the antiques shop, this time as a computer repair shop, and has been able to make a steady - if slim - living.
Josh Bunderson is not the first of his students, and he most assuredly won't be the last. Chris is content though. This is a place he could grow old in.
