Olvan Stávros

Sorcerer | Official | Registrar | Scribe | Human

Often tired. Appears to at times ignore related detriment. Methodical and organised, besides not easily fazed. Puts a considerable degree of effort into everything under his jurisdiction, although what he does might not always be within his own benefit. Values work highly, whether mundane, arcane, or violent: the last case occasionally causing regret depending on the context, but generally only after the fact. He can be seen as conversationally oriented when in social settings, which can be a stark contrast to other situational mentalities.

History

A long standing municipal official.

He considers his occupation with importance and does not divert from necessity.

History otherwise remains uncertain.

Trivia

Human, but the amount of raw magic he has channeled over the years must have done something to slow his aging to a crawl. He is constantly tired, which may be related.

As much as it is a conduit, the staff usually present is a crutch and means to get around more easily.

In a combative situation, relative weakness alternates to a varying extent, though unlikely due to circumstance. May act as a mediator on occasion when necessary, but hardly fights with purpose anymore.

Conflict is viewed neutrally, as other matters. Related capability corresponds to magickal influence, whether spoken or drawn.

When altercations occur outside, the air shifts in a whirlwind outward to ‘create’ symbols in loose earth or sand. That is, if influence and onslaught does not occur directly in the path taken going forward.

More energy is expended if he generates symbols without using nearby materials, but that does not delay him significantly. He can be considered limber when active, moving frequently to evade and wear down an opponent. He typically does not kill someone, knowing the illegality.

His stamina picks up with the flux of energy that his staff generates, being dependent on it. This gradually fades after a relative duration, once no longer acting defensively.

Early-mid 20s physically and over a century older in chronology. Typically finds himself confined to his residency and sends out people for errands by extent of fatigue. Due to this, he indirectly is an influence at times through word of mouth or written messages.

While his life has gone far past its limit, the physiological changes that have resulted from constant practices have also taken away his stability. Can be described as analogous to a lightbulb. Eventually he will break and stop functioning.

Where he came from is unclear. His earlier memories are hazy, correlating to his time alive. The present and correlations remain overall distinct. He might not live far past current timeframes, but mental state is not failing.

He stands as one of the few practitioners highly involved in the field. The knowledge is restricted to certain educational fields for various reasons.

Knows more than he lets on. Various matters “do not involve him” and he otherwise does not consider it important enough to intervene. He has seen many things occur, good and bad.

Due to being capable of insight, and otherwise learning of matters via his connections and office, he has picked up on a lot of things. He is more impartial than to actively act against a number of dealings despite this. He does not risk his own responsibilities and by extent may turn a blind eye to going-ons outside of own range.

Socially and politically, he is not singular as a figure. Others are existent who are defensive of surrounding municipalities, albeit varying in erudition.

Within his own connections, maintaining stability of the socio-political groundwork is an effort. It is a forefront motivation for a variety of reasons: chaos better averted from.
