History

Birth country: England
Hometown: London, possibly
Childhood: Austin was born as the third child of a pair of necromancers. He and his sisters were trained in the Necromancy temple and raised with the necromancy thing. There is little of note in Austin's childhood other than what I've already said, though his father left the family when he was young.
Teen years: At some point, Austin starts using a trench coat as his object of power. In his teen years, he meets best friend Awesome Dude, and they start travelling here and there. He hits the surge at age 17. Austin begins to distance himself from the temple for unknown reasons. Austin has a string of unsuccessful romantic relationships.
Adult years: In Ireland, Austin befriends Solomon Wreath (or at least he feels they're friends idk) but for the most part just travels, meets girls, fails to build a working relationship with girls and sleeps on the streets wherever he may drop. His sister gets a job with the French Sanctuary, giving him a few odd excuses to travel all the way up to France to see her. While in France, at a bar, he overhears some mortals talking about a job well done. He manages to get them to open up about it to him and discovers they had killed targets that 'bled light', and realises they had been hired by a man they could not remember to kill warlocks. He feeds back this information to the Necromancer temple in Ireland. During the events of The Faceless Ones, Solomon Wreath requests Austin's assistance in stopping the Faceless Ones from returning. By this point, according to the book, Austin's object of power is a flintlock pistol, likely meaning his coat was destroyed somehow. He is killed in the battle of Aranmore Farm. During his adult years, he has a bit more luck with making relationships last for longer than a year.
Past places of residence: Irish Necromancer Temple, possibly
History of family: It is known his parents were both English Necromancers.

Relationships

Parents: Necromancers. He is not especially close to them. His father's taken name was Arthritis Dank.
Siblings: He has two older sisters. Cadence Nightwish and Belinda Diamond. At the time of his death, Austin and Belinda are in the midst of a feud, and his relationship with Cadence is more amicable but still slightly tense.
Any enemies (and why): I suppose Batu's gang in The Faceless Ones, the group he fights against when he dies. He has lived 90 long years and has made a fair few enemies in the past. Erskine Ravel, The Torment and 'Department X'. Briefly, Gale Blaze when the man in question starts sleeping with Katherine (Austin's girlfriend at the time).
Children: None known, though it is suggested that Daemon was pregnant when he died.
Friends: He is friends with Awesome Dude, Gale Blaze, Lilia White and Solomon Wreath.
Best friend(s): Awesome Dude, most likely. (The character was named by my brother.)
Important friends/relatives (explain): None specifically come to mind.
Love interest (if there is one): Katherine Burn (Formerly), Daemon Scaroe (Character belongs to a friend)

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Violent
Weapon (if applicable): Shadows bonded to a coat or flintlock pistol
Style of fighting: He generally attacks people with said shadows. The method in which the shadows attack or move depends on whether he uses the coat or pistol.
