[@Theyra] Approved. I think Karim is a nice mix of lowkey and still interesting, with hopes, fears, and motivations that make sense. You've done a great job with the lore too. I'm looking forward to RPing with you! OOC will be up probably tomorrow.

[@Gittarackur] There are some things in there that I like, particularly the background for his insanity. It feels quite genuine. His style of magic is also something that's cool and thematic and has a nice, distinct style. For what it's worth, every group needs its resident troubled/disturbed guy or misunderstood jackass. However, 9.1 is absolutely nuts as a RAS score and kind of puts him in a position to just run rampant over the group. Normally, anything above an 8 is considered prodigious, so I'm going to ask you to lower that to something a bit more reasonable. He can still be a prodigy, but he doesn't need to be a world-breaking psychopath. In the future, if the character is going in an interesting and worthwhile direction, there are ways in which he can gain power. I'm all for that. Also, just in terms of characterization and being period appropriate, I don't need a ton of 'haths' and 'doths' and all that jazz, but his opening quote/motto just really doesn't have the right feel for this RPG as it stands. Let's try to make all aspects of him make sense within this lore and not just some, alright? How about you keep the good stuff and work on those issues and get back to me in a bit. Sound good?
