[hider=Brahelius Strombe] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/mq40hDq.jpg?1[/img] [h1]Brahelius Strombe[/h1] [h2]Cursed Moon Excluder[/h2][/center] [h3]Short Bio/Synopsis:[/h3] Even stars sputter out of existence. Their lights, though bright, stop shining eventually. Such a thought has plagued Brahelius for much of his life. Even with sustenance, there comes an end. Born in a perilous location, for eight generations the Strombe family has situated their workshop as close as they can to the moon as possible, but the location has left much to be desired. As a result, Brahelius has been subject to many outrageous situations that have dulled his sense of normality. After undergoing his customary years at the Clock Tower, he retreated back to his family holdings and sequestered himself away like many magi. Yet, once the rumors of a backwater Eastern Ritual that could grant any wish, Brahelius packed his bags and belongings to participate, for if his problems could not be solved with methods originating from this land, then surely the far off island of Japan may hold the answer. [h3]Magecraft:[/h3] The Strombe family possesses specialized circuits that carry a composition of Concentric. With his magic circuits arrayed within each other, the Strombe takes great care in making sure they synchronize their circuits to that of the solar system. As a result, their magical energy could be said to be that of the heavens above. Combined with their astrology, the Strombe harness this blessing to great effect. Viewing celestial bodies as something similar to world pillars, the Strombe has reached a level where their magecraft has taken a form similar to middle eastern curse practitioners, utilizing the movements of the heavens as something like a template to mold the world around them. Coincidentally, because of their working with the movements of the skies, rather than the classic elements, they use celestial bodies to classify existences. Brahelius holds the element of Saturn within this paradigm. [h3]Mystic Codes[/h3] [b]Azoth Sword:[/b] A Mystic Code used as a tool for performing magecraft, amplifying the user's magical energy to assist with spells and strengthen them. Filling it with magical energy allows for it to be utilized as a magic wand at any time to form magic circles and affect physical divine mysteries. [b]Celestial Dirks:[/b] Ritual knives not dissimilar to that of an Azoth Sword. However, each blade has undergone treatments to attune them to specific celestial bodies. 12 for the zodiacs, and seven for the planets themselves. Consecrated or constructed out of sacred metals, suffumigated with scents pleasing to the heavens, animated with the wraith of an individual born under the influence of those holy orbs that orbit the planet. Each and every blade is a vital instrument for the Strombe. Precious ritual blades take the place of planets and stars. Shadows projected from the heavens beaten into the form of knives. [b]Crushed Velvet (Empty Night RE-enact):[/b] A cloak made of some dark fabric that represents the night sky. Bereft of any celestial bodies, it becomes an empty canvas that relies on other tools to achieve anything. However, in conjunction with Celestial Dirks, it becomes a terrifying magic tool. Constructed with a wraith amalgam, contained within the crushed obsidian that lines the cloak, it becomes a high-speed calculation tool that reinterprets the movements of the heavens into magical formulas that it then displays within the inner fabric. [h3]Misc/Other/Trivia[/h3] [list] [*]While Brahelius may hold the title of magus, if his true thoughts were to be revealed to that of his peers, he would be called a heretic for harboring such beliefs. But as one who has cast away any pride in the pursuit of preventing that unavoidable cycle of fate, he would be uncaring of their opinions. A true lunatic. [*]If he were to discover the basis of the Holy Grail War laid not within eastern foundations, but of western concepts, he would be most upset and promptly change his wish into that of an obscene amount of wealth. [*]His skills in the creation of bounded fields are truly astounding, but his skewed perception of reality has made him view them as nothing but that of a mediocre magus. This is not limited to bounded fields exclusively, but to his magecraft as a whole. [*]Likes: Food (Any if available), Being left alone, Fortresses, Peace of Mind, The Moon.

An endless source of light that fills the vast darkness of the sky. Spearheads of illumination that continuously expands the cosmos. A tool that strengthens the connection between the sky and himself by representing the eternity of the sun with the eternity of the sky. But this is not a Mystic Code that operates on its own. It is a paired existence, it’s sister being but a series of shells with carvings to let out but some of that endless light. Each shell is carved in such a way to represent a night sky. While seemingly unimpressive, such a feat is something to congratulate. It replicates the sky textures of whatever shell represents, trivializing certain restrictions to the Strombe astrology.[/hider]
