(Thank you! I'll try not to disappoint you.)
Name: Mollie Nameless (His poor mother died before they could tell her it was a boy. Her last command was to name the child "Mollie")
Age: 7
Gender: Male
Species: No one really knows. In all outward aspects, Mollie is completely human.
Abilities: Mollie can "control" snakes to a certain extent. It makes for a great way to earn a few dollars.
Personality: Despite his... odd upbringing, Mollie seems to be a typical seven-year-old. He is very stubborn, and surprisingly rather spoiled, as he is used to scaring people into submission with his "friends". However, he is very friendly and tends to latch on to people very quickly, and is capable of extreme shows of loyalty. His reaction to negative things is usually limited to going into denial about it, thus giving most people the idea that he's as cold-blooded as his snakes.
History: Mollie's mother was part of a circus, none of which had ever exhibited any unusual powers. It is suspected that his father was the one who is responsible for his unusual power, but alas, no one knows who he was. Mollie's birth was a particularly difficult one, and the circus lost their best singer and second-to-best acrobat. Their hope was that Mollie had inherited his mother's talent for singing (or acrobatics), but at the age of two they found him more inclined to play with adders than his fellow children. Nervous that they might be burned for witchcraft, they gave him a simple reed pipe, and so giving him the appearance of, like other foreign performers, charming the snakes with music. At the age of six, they decided he was too much trouble to conceal, and so they abandoned him at the town. He's still convinced that they're coming back for him.
Looks: Mollie's dark hair certainly matches that of his late mother's, but his dark complexion and storm-gray eyes are suspected of being the mark of his father. Mollie is small for his age, but you'd never suspect it from the enormous weights he can lift. Acrobatics, after all, require strength as well as balance, and Mollie is moderately skilled, and all circus children are, in acrobatics. His shirt is moderately clean, though his pants come barely below the knees and look as if they might have once been blue, though they have faded to gray. He wears a yellow scarf which has hidden pockets on the inside for keeping his pipe and anything he might "find" (stealing was encouraged, getting caught was not). Unfortunately, the scarf also has his name embroidered on it, leaving it very hard to make up a new, more masculine name when meeting strangers. All his clothes smell very strongly of reptiles, and for some reason, apple cider.
Crush: Ew! Girls are so icky!
Other: Mollie's companions are usually limited to the snakes he can find in a place, which in the town are most four-inch long nonvenomous creatures, though he found a few larger, more deadly "friends".
