SECRETS. very few people are aware of his night terrors & ptsd , as well as his meticulous obsession with his own appearance , which is one of multiple symptoms that can be attributed to his bpd . even fewer people have been told about his childhood , which involves the fact that his mother committed suicide upon realising that she had given birth to a warlock , and that he murdered his step-father soon after . he often lies about his age (and his birth date , by extension) , which is a number that only ragnor and catarina have been made privy to . arguably , his most closely guarded secret is that of his parentage - his father is asmodeus , a greater demon & one of the nine princes of hell .

ABILITIES / POWERS. regardless of what he lacks in regards to musical instruments , magnus more than compensates for it by way of his skills . he’s highly proficient when it comes to brewing potions , in both liquid & powder forms , and is particularly adept at performing magic , due to his parentage . on top of this , he is quick thinking & resourceful regardless of whether he is on a battlefield or in conversation , and is particularly adept at reading people’s emotions despite suppressing many of his own . being a warlock , magnus has the ability to see through most shadow world glamours , and as the son of a greater demon , he is capable of wielding seraph blades . witchlight will also light up beneath his touch , though both items will flare red rather than white .
