Mankind was at the height of it's technological power when it began to change. People began to be born with marks on the backs of their right hands, symbols of the extraordinary powers and abilities they possessed. Slowly, all of mankind began to develop these, and the age of Technology came to a grinding halt as people abandoned the long held traditions of their society. Society changed, slowly becoming loosely associated villages and cities, where people were taught to use their abilities to aid their fellow people.
It was discovered that each mark was not unique, but represented a type of power, some had marks that signified healing, some creation. Some of these marks however, came to gain a dark reputation.
These marks only seemed to appear on children when danger was approaching, and they were almost always combat oriented. The various religions that had popped up began to view these bearers of the marks not as a warning, but the source of the problem.
You live in the village known a Kattox, a fairly liberal village that is not in the grasp of these religions, yet many of the townspeople still fear you. You bear one of these legendary marks, and you know the power you bear with it.
Throughout the world, there have been sightings of people bearing strange weapons that launch incredibly fast projectiles, technology that was thought lost. These people have been systematically attackting their targets working towards their goal, and now they head towards Kattox.

Alright, to give you an idea of what I'll accept Mark-wise, I'm going to give you a few examples, if you wish to use one, feel free to.

Alchemy: the bearer of the mark of Alchemy is able to change the shape and composition of inanimate objects, the bearer could turn a wall into a door, or a stick into a sword, or a mass of dirt into a spear. The Alchemy mark looks like an ever changing shape, it's colors looking different all the time.

Dragon: The bearer of this mark may change portions of their body to be draconic in nature, covering it in scales, getting stronger, and growing claws and wings where appropriate, they cannot take a full dragon form though, remaining human in overall shape. The Dragon mark's appearance is that of a european dragon.

Focus:The bearer of this mark has two abilities, first off, they have complete control over their body's processes, making them able to do things such as neutralize poisons in their body or use just the right muscles to produce maximum effect. Secondly, they can, to a limited degree, aid the bodily processes of others, making this mark's bearer able to help people heal. This mark's appearance is that of a meditating person.

My guy!
Name: Dennis Loray
Gender:Male
Age: 21
Personality: Fairly nice and friendly, but he's also terribly blunt with the way he speaks things, he says them the way they are. He does have a bit of buried anger and depression left.
Appearance:He's about 5'7", with blue eyes and black hair to his shoulders, he has a fairly muscular build, he usually wears a grey short sleeved shirt with a pair of black pants.
Mark: Dragon.
Stuff: a house with fairly common furnishings, couch, bed, several chairs, a table, and a kitchen. In place of the now forgotten Refridgerator, there is an Ice box, a box designed to contain ice and food to keep it cold. On his person, he usually carries a utilitarian knife and a black and white locket.
History: His mother was originially raised in one of the more extreme religions, so when Dennis was born, she took him home and set the house on fire, intent on killing Dennis for his "evil" mark and herself for bringing him into the world, his father, however, managed to get Dennis out of the fire, but died from the injuries he sustained when fighting his mom to get to him. Ever since then, he's been a sort of community child, everyone took care of him. He went into an angry, depressive phase when he learned of what happened to his parents, which he recently came out of.
