Soulcaster

Soulcaster is a high level Astral projector capable of projecting not only his own consciousness but that of anyone he or his projection touches. He is the ruler of Salem, Oregon which largely acts as a crossroads and an arena for Epics to battle in. Due to the number of Epics which pass through Salem Soulcaster acts as an insurance policy for the town, his ability to incapacitate even High Epics has lent him a great deal of prestige.

Biography
A former accountant Soulcaster grew up in Salem and owned and operated his own accounting business there just before Calamity rose. After gaining his powers he quickly took over the city, protecting it from the other Epics that were created along with him and he created an area relatively safe from the Epic fights that plagued the rest of Oregon, he formed a system of Epic battles that would not damage the town or its populace too much and provided a source of entertainment for both Epics and regular humans.

Powers & Abilities
Primary Power: Astral Projection- Soulcaster can project anything that he touches with either his physical or astral body to anywhere within a 10km radius. In the case of living beings he projects their consciousness along with the image so the being can move their projection independently of him, in order to restore consciousness to their body they have to move their projection back to their original body.

Soulcaster can also project peoples consciousness to the astral plane, a world of pure unformed spirit, he is capable of bending the plane to his will, creating and altering things at will, he has been known to alter the astral bodies of people he has sent there in cruel and often humiliating ways. The only known method of escaping the astral plane without Soulcasters assistance is to for the astral body to die which then restores consciousness to the physical plane.
