Colin Ian Holden
I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself

Bio: Colin hails from a long line of wizards, one could say it is in his blood. His mother Bella was a powerful wizard, one which had a seat at the council of immortals, but she never told her children of her abilities. She wanted to offer them a normal life as long as she could before revealing it to them, but she died before it. His father kept his mouth shut while trying to protect his family from the evil things Bella told him existed out there.
So Colin grew up having mostly a normal childhood, even if he was hell on wheels growing up but always had known for being good hearted.
One day when he was about 16 years old, he saw a magician show on the TV and got fascinated by it. That moment on, he knew instantly that was what he wanted to do, standing on the stage seeing the crowd get astonished with his skills all the while having a beautiful assistant smiling at him.
He got his hands into everything he could read about magic and learned all the tricks he could until one year later he sneaked out of home to go see a magic show late at night. And hell, it was far more impressive than it had been in the TV. He looked out for the magician after the show and asked the man to teach him his tricks. The magician was impressed with the kid’s ability for the tricks and started teaching him in his free time.
When Colin was 22 years old, he started out as a magician himself. His father wasn’t happy with his career choice, he never knew why. But for him it was great, the ‘ohs’ and ‘ahs’ he got out of the audience were the greatest feeling he ever had – oh alright, second best feeling. He started a relationship with his stage assistant, a sexy long haired brunette with big…talents.
All was well.
Until his old teacher came back, accusing him of stealing his act and sued him. He was better than his old teacher, way better, but that didn’t matter. He had new jobs turned down, his name followed by ‘crook’ on the newspaper and his sexy assistant left him. Not to mention he had to pay almost everything he owed to his old mentor.
It was by chance then that he started to learn slowly over time that he could actually perform tricks…no scratch that, it was real magic. It seemed absurd at first, but he had done it.
And with great power comes great responsibility…BAH! He’d use it to his own advantage and get what he wanted and give (some of it) to those who needed. There were so many rich people out there that just couldn’t hope to spend all the money they had and those like him that had nothing…so why not just spread the wealth a bit?
