Alright I know that some of you who are reading this are extremely confused and/or slightly panicking, But don't worry I'll continue to read and update the wandering mage group thread as it was and is awesome, But it turned into an RPG which wasn't quite what I'd intended, This thread will be a SG where the players control one traveling mage as he struggles to make a living for himself in the world.

Now what type of Magic does the Wizard Specialize in?

Biomancy(Life Magic)
Necromancy(Death Magic)
Summoning(Summoning Magic)
Conjuration(Offensive and Flashy Magic)
Illusionism(Hallucination Magic)
Cyromancy(Ice-Magic)
Pyromancy(Fire-Magic)
Aethermancy(Air-Magic)
Chronomancy(Earth-Magic)
Technomancy(Not Really Magic, But it appears to be to the locals and users can do all sorts of stuff with Technology)

It takes Decades to become proficient with any school of magic,so choose wisely.These are by no means the only schools of magic, But they're the only ones a wizard would be caught dead using.

Name:What is the Wizard's name?
Race:Must Be Something Mortal and cannot be some kind of anthropomorphic animal this time(Sorry Kevak.)
Age:12-25 (You want that mystical wizard beard, Earn it.)
Hobby: Any one Mundane skill or actual Hobby that the Wizard is proficient in, Choose one.
Appearance: How does the Wizard look?
Backstory: Who is the Wizard, How did he learn his brand of magic, and what does he intend to do with it?
Special Item: Pick 1 small magical/technological item you could carry in your pocket.

Well, BEGIN!

Technomancy
Name: Iven Eganis
Race:Gnome
Alignment: Neutral Good
Age: 25
Hobby: Tinkering
Appearance: A gnome standing at the short height of 3'6", the weight of 49 pounds, copper colored hair and green eyes. Though his features might seem to be one that a human child might have he sports copper muttonchops with his face having broad and stout features. One could say he is in decent shape though he doesn't have very defined muscles, as is common with gnomes. Although it seems he could take a punch, unlike the frail elves and other sub-species of gnomes.   
Backstory: Iven may not be the most conventional wizard, but for gnomes, curiosity, exploration, and tinkering are important to their culture, and those traits are almost needed for technomancers. Where one could say he could find a living with divination and illusions, the technomancer earns his living through little adventures with their little inventions and constructs. The world always seems to be expanding for Iven, with all this of technology and knowledge, he felt compelled to work for the betterment of society and the world. Iven went from the basic wizardry classes to the technological standpoint of steam lectures, sulfur and (gunpowder?) experiments, tests with projectile weaponry, golem theory and creation, endless binges on sources like "Mechanical Creations and You", alchemy, Creative theory and thinking, the liberal arts, ventriloquism, along with perhaps more mundane creations like watches and tools.   
Special Item: Pocket Watch (A technomancy focus)

BUMP

[AfellowDwarf]

Can you pick more than one school but not be all that good at them, like what was said in the OP of that mage group thread?

[LuckyKobold]

Of course but skill would be halved between them, And thirded if you picked three schools and so on.

[The Froggy Ninja]

I'm shit at characters but a bio/techno summoner sounds cool. Summoning or creating abominations of nature and science.

[LuckyKobold]

Interesting concept,that is.

[High tyrol]

Oh this looks fun I will wait till there are more choice s before voting on a character through

[AfellowDwarf]

Okay, I made one. I can't think of any good special item, though.

Schools of magic: Biomancy and aethermancy
Name: Maron Bubredi
Race: Half-elf
Age: 15
Hobby: Maron likes to make cloth dolls and hand them out to small children. In secret, that is.
Appearance: A pointy eared young man with brown eyes dark skin. He is somewhat overweight and wears baggy clothes as if to compensate for a scrawny figure. His black hair is grown into a shoulder length mullet.
Backstory: Maron is the bastard child of an elven drunk and a relatively well-off merchant who begrudgingly took him in, desperate from his real wife's aparant infertility. The elven accident was quite a source of shame to his family, and was often disciplined for acting too elf-like in one way or another. He was sent off to learn the ways of aethermancy at a young age, as his father figured that magical accomplishments might redeem his mistake. However, the halfbreed took an increasing intrest in life magic as his studies went on, and decided to switch courses on a particularily courageous day. It wouldn't last, sadly, as his father came to check up on his progress after a while and cought him taking a lesson in healer stuff. The merchant did not tolerate that his money was being spent on making his son a hippie. Maron was disowed, and his father ceased paying for his courses. Maron simply wishes to become famous and succesful, so he can show up his family.
Special Item: Haven't got a clue.

Aethermancy should be a nice way of getting dangerous stuff from biomancy away from us and into some poor slob's face. Think of plant spores, small critters, that sort of thing.

[LuckyKobold]

Looks good so far guys, Keep it up.

Froggy Ninja I'm sorry but your character can't be a Warlock because that would break the principle of the thread, You also neglected to choose a starting magic. I'm sorry but you're gonna have to change your character sheet.

[The Froggy Ninja]

I meant to say he was a bio/techno summoner. Plus he's not a warlock. He was a warlock but then he bent his contract a little too far and the eldritch abomination revoked his powers. Then he started studying wizardry. I'm sorry if that wasn't clear. Also he's based on a character in am d&d let's play on something awful who was a warlock so I added the contract bit.

[Prophet]

Okay, I made one. I can't think of any good special item, though.
