Prestige
Preston Greyhaven is a man in his late 20s with short brown hair, and brown eyes. Always dresses sharp in nice expensive suits and watches.
Preston Greyhaven was born from a long line of famous stage magicians. He grew up following his father where ever he went and participated in some of the tricks his father had invented. One day his father mysteriously disappeared and left him his wealth and book of magic tricks. Following his father's footsteps he became "Prestige" the stage magician, but was not as good as his father. There were other stage magicians who were always able to invent tricks better than what Preston Greyhaven had come up with.
One day while walking through the library of his family's mansion, a book fell from the top shelf and hit him on the head. When he woke up from his daze he found that something had fell out of the book. It was a mysterious map. Preston followed the map which lead him through a while goose chase of puzzles and secret doors throughout the mansion. Eventually it lead him to the grave of his long dead grandfather.
There, Preston spoke the strange incantation found on the map and a treasure chest appeared. It contained a collection of magical artifacts along with a letter, belonging to his long dead grandfather.
Reading the long letter, Preston learned that his family belonged to a long line to magicians dedicated to the protection of the world against supernatural threats.
Preston studied the book and practiced its magic, becoming adept at illusion magic. At first he used the magic to improve his stage performances, but his kid brother Draven Greyhaven who was crazed about comic books was a key motivator in getting him to fulfill his role and use his powers for the greater good.
One day after finishing his act using real magic and retiring for the night, Prestige was beset by mysterious shadow creatures. Armed with his newly obtained mystical powers, Prestige manage to defeat them. They left a clue, an article of clothing belonging to his father. This lead Prestige to believe that his father must be still alive somewhere, and he set out on his quest in search for his father.
