A work in Progress, but completed for the most part. [hider=Master] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/xVuBW2U.png[/img][/center] [center][color=red][i][b][h1]Rouge Un’Chapeu[/h1][/b][/i][/color][/center] [b]Title(s):[/b] Crimson Capped Cardslinger [b]Appearance:[/b] [b]Gender:[/b] M [b]Age:[/b] 76 [b]Alignment: [/b]Neutral Evil [b]Rank:[/b] (Your capability as a Magus in the eyes of the Mages Association. This will be given to you on approval.) [b]Objective for the Grail:[/b] Rather then the grail, the competition itself greatly interests Rouge. Although, the rewards of ownership over the spiritual lands of Paris are something that would not go remiss if he were to win. [b]Character Objectives: [/b] - To engage in combat with his fellow peers. (Primary) - To witness a gathering of heroes fight amongst themselves for the grail. (Secondary) [b]Command Seal:[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/InEBSOZ.png[/img] [b]Personality:[/b] A taciturn fellow who’s silence is only further tempered by his relatively old age, though he is still considered a youngster in the eyes of many a magus within the Clocktower. However, behind his rather blase attitude lies a fiercely competitive soul. The type of person who would lose at a game they never played once in their life and laugh it off only to come back a month later having practiced every waking hour to try to beat you at that game. [b]Bio:[/b] An unassuming individual from the equally unassuming Un’Chapeu family. While not untalented, he is not some once in a generation genius who advanced his family craft generations forwards. He simply went about his daily life and duty while still enjoying his life by engaging in competitive card games, a rather well-known hobby of his that he often recommends to any peer he may encounter. Though in his (relatively) advanced age he begins to yearn for something more thrilling than the many variants of poker that exist, he was never one to go and purposefully seek his own destruction. Such a thing would almost be an antithesis of what he was taught to seek, that being the path of creation. Once news of a tournament reached him, however, he became intrigued. For something of this caliber, with such a reward as well, so close by, how could he refuse? Besides, it wasn’t like there would be much risk to him. Right?

A fitting attribute for those who would create talismans - [b][i]Earth Magecraft:[/i][/b] While capable of manipulating the ground, his own studies discard such useless magecraft, instead choosing to focus on the attribute of Binding that comes from Earth. - [b][i]General Magecraft:[/i][/b] The very basics anyone calling themselves a magus should know. Contains knowledge such as sympathetic and contagious magecraft along with the common knowledge of things such as what ley lines are. - [i][b]Numerology:[/b][/i] While not the main focus of the Un’Chapeu family, they nonetheless choose to supplement their own magecraft with the compatible foundation of Numerology. - [b][i]Spiritual Evocation:[/i][/b] A supplementing field of magecraft the Un’Chapeu use in the creation of ‘Idols’.

[b]Crest:[/b] 6 Generations [h3][b]Weapon: [/b][/h3] - [b][i]Empty Knight Sky:[/i][/b] A deck of cards that gave Rouge his namesake along with his interest in card games. In reality, they are a set of disguised star charts that depict the thirteen Zodiacs that serve as nothing more than a seal that house enfleshed curses within them. Taking the appearance of knight-like suits of armor, they shine with the very light of the constellations they take their names from. In an unrelated note, it seems that these imagined constructs, in fact, are inspired from a relic his family has passed down for generations. - [b][i]Cane of Solomon:[/i][/b] Whereas the creation of talismans are the operation of the spirit by body, by inverting this operation it becomes possible to operate bodies with spirits by applying key ideas and meanings from both the human body and the Grimorium Verum. A process remarkably similar to alchemy, and something close to infringing upon the threshold of those within the Middle Eastern community. It’s outward appearance is that of a classy cane, it’s head in the shape of a human clavicle. [h3][b] Exceptional Benefit:[/b][/h3] - Superior Mystic Code [/hider]
