(Whole page is a big WIP for now... more writing and interactivity planned for later)
Something about him... you can't seem to take your eyes off him.
Neither can anyone else, apparently. A man with a voice way bigger than he is. All the spikes and probaby-fake leather let you know he's a bad boy. All edgy and alternative with that long hair. He peacocks around as if he's very handsome, but the more you examine him, the more haggard you realise he looks.
He smiles when he catches you staring, locking eyes with you for that second, before he turns his attention back to the group he's already entertainig with those theatrical antics of his.
If his reputation doesn't already precede him, his presence will certainly get your attention. Ryn is a certified MAD LAD. He's loud and animated; he's friendly and shockingly charming, in a raffish kind of way. No dare is too risky, no price for attention is too high. He's magnetic, hypnotically confident, larger than life, and has apparently taken it upon himself to make everyone laugh. Whether or not you find his antics amusing, you'll have to admit this guy knows how to lift the energy of a room.
Ryn has grown into a rambunctious young man who lives every day like he's dying — because he is. His magic condition has gotten to the point where it's impossible to ignore; he'll be dead within the decade. Combined with his existing trauma, his ability to plan for any kind of future is effectively out the window. He's seeking thrills constantly, with no real aim.
Forget it.

The sheer amount of magic in Ryn's body is nigh-unprecedented in humans. It's the result of a malformation of his aura which forces it to strengthen way beyond what it was supposed to, and it's slowly killing him. Ryn can only consciously use a fraction of his actual power, and even that's very painful. The more he uses, the more it hurts him.
Human mages have a handy inbuilt response where their magical abilities are heightened during moments of extreme stress. Except, for Ryn, this isn't handy at all — when powers as vast as his are released, it's uncontrollable and violent. As such, Ryn has to wear sealing devices on both wrists which constantly suppress his magic. They make it so that his magic can't manifest, but unfortunately they don't do anything to mitigate the breathtaking agony and other ill effects of a surge (weakness, nausea, migraine, vertigo, some other nasty stuff). Unsealed, his uncontrolled magic could level a building.
Ryn's presence is amazingly conspicuous — in the same way a grizzly car accident is. His aura is so vast and so malformed that even people without much magical ability can perceive it on an unconscious level.
Ryn can appear to summon flames out of nothing, which can sit comfortably on his skin or clothes without burning him. Be careful though, they’ll hurt you just like real fire.
Ryn can effectively make himself into a terribly inefficient space heater/cooler. And if he holds something in his hand, he can heat it up/cool it down.
Ryn can appear to produce immense electrical charges on or near him. He can make electricity arc between his fingers or arms, which is cool, and scary as anything. It’s as dangerous as it looks, too.
Ryn can also output a substantial amount of random electromagnetic interference. He’s only managed to do this accidentally so far. He’s capable of disrupting Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, radio, TV and other such signals; making lighting flicker, forcing computers to restart. That kinda thing. Kinda spooky.
Collab between me and Roqi :)
Fortunately for Ryn his orangutan arms make it possible to maintain an upright singing position AND wear his bass like sid vicious
