Name: Marcus Thanis
Gender: Male
Age: 26
Magic User Type: Wizard
Appearance:
(the second one is for facial reference)
Personality:
Marcus is easily intrigued by all things mysterious in the world, be it magic, Monster, lore, history or even rumor. However very few things hold his attention for very long.
The problem was never difficulty, be it easy or hard. There where just so many other things interesting in the world, that he simply forgot the previous when he uncovered the next. His constantly moving from one focus to the next does however mean his knowledge is broad, even if shallow at times, and his wisdom has aged well beyond his years.
Cryptic by default and joker in his own way, Marucs in more known to deal in half-truths than straight up lies and facts.
Powers: As with most wizards, Marcus is known to possess a wide variety of powers, however he has always favored 'useful' spells over the powers of destruction.
As a result, he is rarely seen wielding any magical spells aside from traps, defensive walls and wards and simple illusions.
If he had a signature spell, it would be his ability to quickly sort trough the contents of any book by simply touching them, manipulate/erase the parts of interest or instantly copy them over to any other book nearby.
Skills/Talents: Among his most trusted skills are his abilities to strategist, trick and his ability to quickly look at a problem from many different angles. He also considers himself wise and knowledgeable
Equipment/weapons: Generally being dressed in old monk robes, and not much else, there is only one item he posses that would generally be considered noteworthy: Marcus posses a giant, old looking arcane-tome, generally seen dangling from a sturdy cord, tossed over is shoulder. Inside this heavy looking book there are numerous spells, lores and bestiary entries collected over the years. It is neither magical or enchanted in any way, although its contents are poorly sorted and anyone other than himself would have a painfully difficult time to divulge any useful information from this great book. Even though it is a huge book, the fact that its not magical means there is only a limited amount of space inside. As such, only the most interesting bits of information are stored inside.
Bio: Marcus is the only son of the great Sage known as Agerius Thanis. Agerius possessed great knowledge and wisdom and was famous for advising and guiding several nobles and kings, including both the current King of pantos and the one before him, to fame and fortune. As such, his name was known far and wide, to the point where even commoners respected him as if he was a living god, constantly looking for his advice. For all his wisdom however, It took him over 80 years (and probably a little bit of magic) to father a single son, Marcus.
Way before that however, Agerius had made his home inside a great library in the kingdom of Pantos, where he remained until the day he died. The library was filled with ancient and rare books. Some of them he had found himself, but most where gifts from all the people he had helped in his lifetime. As such Marcus was always surround by books and knowledge. Some books where mundane, others held the secrets of far away lands. There was enough there to provide several lifetimes worth of reading material. Some of it exciting, most of it interesting. Growing up, he may even have spent more time reading then socializing, playing or even studying.
7 years ago, at the outstanding age of 103 Agerius died of old age. Leaving everything he owned, including his great library, to his only son. One his death bad, Agerius pleaded with Marcus to take his place, and help guide the world. But until this day, Marcus has yet to do so. Generally keeping himself hold up in his great library.
after 7 years, even with all his greatness, the name of Thanis is slowly being forgotten, written down as a side-note in the history books, erased from memory by all but a few.
