[b][Name] [/b] Marcus Eldroe [b][Age][/b] 26 [b][Gender][/b] Male [b][Race][/b] Human [hider=-Appearance-][img]http://img12.deviantart.net/5f4d/i/2010/338/e/9/fire_mage_by_anndr-d3475o2.jpg[/img][/hider] Marcus is exceptionally thin, made strikingly apparent given how tall he is. At 6’5’’, one might see his appearance as almost ‘frail’ looking, especially against his pale skin, wide angular shoulders and jawline. While he may not be the toughest or strongest, it’s his wit that often carries him through. Wit and intellect that can clearly be seen behind his unwavering blue irises. Eyes that are sometimes obscured by raven black hair that has grown out to the middle of his back. In most instances, he wears robes traditional of Viceni Magi. [b][Brief character concept][/b] Marcus was the apprentice of [color=ed1c24]Magus Almeri Corellian[/color], who was at Muon Pond interrogating some Aretan Knight about recent disturbances in Vicenna’s territories. He could very nearly be considered a Magus himself, though his teacher would often comment that he had so much left to learn. But now, with the lands being burned around him and his master missing or worse, he needs to learn why this band of raiders is sacking the towns of Vicenna and bring an end to it if he can; and perhaps save his master if he yet lives. [b][History][/b] Marcus was an only child born to a quiet family of farmers, though it seemed he was never destined for their life. He was enamored in magic and the ways of the Viceni Magi. He’d always sneak away from his work to seek out and watch them whenever he could. It seems someone of their order took a liking to him. He was apprenticed to a Viceni Magus at the young age of 11, much to the displeasure of his parents. He eagerly took the position and studied dutifully under the Magus. It was everything he hoped, except for, perhaps, being the one made to mop the floors and tidy libraries. His new apprenticeship took him far from home, and often granted him the opportunity to see the strange and marvelous, but offered little time to return home to see his family. [color=ed1c24]Magus Almeri Corellian[/color], his master, kept the two of them quite busy with both work and travel. Though, the people of Vicenna, wherever they went, were always very welcoming of the mages and made them feel at home, even at the fringes like Muon Pond.
