Currently ActiveName: Jonas Rasmussen
Appearance: An old man, with a magnificent white beard that stretches down to his knees, dressed in deep blue robes, and a cap, ending in a rather wilted point. The thumb and index finger of his right hand is now gone.
Backstory: Magic was a very late calling for Jonas. He was born the son of a smith, and took an apprenticeship with a traveling tinker at a young age. He took well to the traveling life, and the tinker profession, and took over the business after his master grew too old to continue his life on the road. He did well for himself, and eventually took an apprentice himself, who he passed the business onto when he met a kind widower, and settled down. It took him a decade of married life to realize how much he missed life on the road. He bought a wagon, some tinker tools, and set out, with his wife by his side. She succumbed to a fever a few months later in the middle of nowhere, at the gate of wizard's tower. Having lost their cart, horses and all their material possessions to bandits, Jonas begged the wizard for help, some way to restore his wife to life.
And so began his magical education.

Scroll of Star Mental Control
Name: Nix
Appearance: A moustachioed gentleman in long black robes, with a very large purple turban sitting on his only slightly smaller head. He is missing his left hand's pinky, ring finger, and middle finger. His left hand is missing its left side.
Backstory: A seeker of knowledge in all its forms, Nix roamed the land finding teachers, learning here and there from any he could find. Magic, the purest form of knowledge affecting reality, seemed a logical choice. To his surprise, he found a teacher willing to teach him all that he knew, and the two became friends. Before Nix could learn what he desired, his friend was taken from him. For the first time, motivated by more than just curiosity, Nix ventures into a dungeon with anger in his heart.

1 Piece of Paper
Scroll of Inflict Hypochondria
Scroll of Inflict Boils and Sores
Name: Félix
Appearance: A young cloaked man, blindfolded with a mask.
Backstory: Félix lived most of his childhood as a street urchin in a far-off country, until he met in the street a wizard, who came as an ambassador of this land. Trying to imitate him without any knowledge of magic, he accidently displayed a great talent for binding life energy. On his travels back home, the wizard decided to take the kid with him, to show him to a master who would help him control his powers better. He eventually became experienced enough in scrying to see the world around him better through the flow of energy than with his own eyes. He felt like he owed too much to his master to just dismiss this part of his life after his death, so he went to the dungeon along with his fellow apprentices to avenge him.
Inventory:
2 Pieces of Paper
Scroll of Mental Destruction
Name: Zachimodo
Appearance: Zach appears to be a human... Child.
Backstory: Zach Drank a Potion of Age reversal and was promptly told by it's maker he'd have to make A new one. Quite a bit more recently his "Master" Was crushed by Several One ton Rocks that Fell out of the sky.

2 Pieces of Paper
Scroll of Absorb Inanimate Properties for Twelve Turns
Name: Micheal Flannigan
Appearance: A middle-aged man with graying hair and a small beard. His simple house clothes cover muscles hardened by decades of an even harder life. There is a jagged stump where his left arm used to connect to his shoulder.
Backstory: He started his training in his late forties, from an old wizard who frequented his inn and with whom he had struck up a casual friendship. Realizing the potential for a better life, he sold the inn and used the money to sustain himself while he trained with the old man for hours each day. The old man was delighted, and it seemed that he would finally have a true apprentice, when suddenly the fate that befell his previous trainee struck him. Murdered by an old enemy, the wizard had no one to continue his legacy except for the grieving ex-inkeeper, who chose to avenge his friend and punish the one who killed his master.
Inventory:
2 Pieces of Paper
Name: The Shamed One
Appearance: Is surrounded by a cloak of darkness.
Backstory: In his culture, losing one's master is a huge stigma unless you avenge them. The cloak of darkness is the magical equivalent of a paper bag over the head.
Name: Zan
Appearance: Zan appears to be a human... paladin.
Backstory: Zan is a human paladin since several years ago. Then he got hit by an odd bolt from a magical artifact and woke up with the memories of a thousand-year-old evil wizard. He promptly underwent training to get his wizard powers under control... then his master died. Time for a paladin's justice.
