Story:Amelioratory Benevolence/Absolon

Absolon Laurent is one of the central characters in Amelioratory Benevolence. A Pact Wielder, he represents the Body third of the Pact. He is a central protagonist in the second arc, Life is Beautiful, and appears in all subsequent arcs.

Origin
L'appel du vide...

Appearance
Clad in mostly black, Absolon wears a ragged graphic t-shirt, baggy jeans, and leather shoes. A silver studded belt, red and blue wristbands and aviator sunglasses complete his look. His short dark hair is always styled into a fauxhawk.

Personality
By far the most enthusiastic and charismatic of the Pact Wielders, he is a natural born leader, and doesn't feel comfortable in a situation where he's not totally in control. It's one of the few times where he ever feels uncomfortable, considering Absolon's happy-go-lucky nature. Cool and confident, his overwhelming charm and sense of humor both compliment his habit of skirtchasing, though most women are repulsed because of his dirty mouth, and the fact that he often tries too hard. A true libertine lies in his darker half. However, his heart is genuine, and unendingly loyal to those he considers his true friends.

Abilities
Absolon's Pact Element is Space. An extremely dangerous and volatile ability, Absolon wields its array of dazzling effects to change the nature of the battle. The element mainly manifests itself as subtle changes in the current dimension, changing the way the basic rules of physics work altogether. Using this element, Absolon can strike an enemy and cause it to go bouncing around like a rubber ball, create invisible walls and close them in on an opponent, or even create a cartoon-esque black hole on the ground and watch as an enemy who steps into it falls away into nothingness.
