****************************************

CHARACTER: The Wizard

Last round you met Toh, the Wizard's familiar. This round, we focus on the Wizard himself.

CHARACTER: THE WIZARD, Braatrira Th�ophor

Demographic Middle Grade (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_grade)
Genre: Fantasy - think Secret of NIHM.
Role Main Character Adversary (bad guy)
History: Braatrira is a bit of a dark horse character. His origins are unclear, with legend and myth preceding him like a plague in his travels. Unlike many of his contemporaries, he does not reside in a single location, but instead wanders the Known Lands. Some say he's cursed. Some say he is searching for an artifact. Some say he seeks a love he lost when he was a youth. The only thing known for certain is that those who cross his path are seldom heard from again, and if they are, they are but mere shells of the souls they were before.

Type Human
Gender Male
Age Old, but not decrepit.
Physical traits:

Height: About 6'
Stature: Imposing posture.
Hair: White and wild
Eyes: Glowing blue

Personality: Controlled, intelligent, cunning, clinical, detatched.
Characteristics/Traits Left arm is scared from hand to shoulder from a spell that back fried in his youth.
Clothing / Dress Artist's choice, but more or less traditional "wizard robes" and paraphernalia.
Tools / Artifacts / Equipment / Weapons: Carries a twisted staff with three dark gems at the top, and various charms and baubles. Similar baubles can be found woven into his beard.

OPTIONAL: Show Braatrira and Toh together in a scene that illustrates their relationship.

SCWatson · 01-25-2012, 03:52 PM

By the way, in case anyone is curious: Juan (JSolorzanoArts), your intrepid host, will return in a couple of weeks. He had some real world issues come up that needed his direct attention, so I will be stepping in for him for the time being.

Thanks!

I have to say that #2 is my favorite. I like that his gear is part of the overall design.
