Home World: Lirika
Currently Resides: Kalmenos

Gender: Male
Race: Human
Appearance info: Silver hair, blue eyes, 5’8”, medium build, always dressed neatly, wears spectacles
Personality info: Adelbert is a combination of introvert and extrovert. Get him rolling and he’ll read books about history and philosophy well into the night, but standing on a stage, he can speak words that strike deep feeling into people’s hearts. He loves the people of his city and works hard on their behalf. He visits his patron library at least once a week to check in with the librarians and read books to children. In his politics, he tried to be a mediator in conflicts.
Relationship info: Single. May have once been courting someone for political reasons, but relationship didn’t work out.
Profession: Politician and Library patron
Fighting Style: Engraved Dueling Rapier and light armor, Word Magic (primarily Mental, with some elemental and prophecy)
Primary Combat Skills: Tranquil Aura- Passive ability which lessens enemies’ will to fight over time. Can actively focus on a single enemy to multiply the effect. Out of battle, makes people less inclined to interrupt me when talking, they feel calmer around me, but in no way influences their thoughts about what I say
Word Manifestation- Can manifest an object or effect from certain words, like spells. Most powerful when words are written in advance and read, but can be done with speech
Words Available:
Fire- creates fire- can be thrown or activated on rapier
Ice- creates ice- can be thrown or activated on rapier
Stone- creates a stone shell for defense
Rope- extends reach of object- can be activated on rapier
Sight- enhances subject’s vision
Truth- compels subject to speak the truth
Light- creates a bright light directly over his head
Roleplaying Skills: Tome Viewing- has the ability to gain additional knowledge when reading a tome or book. He accomplishes this by stepping into an illusion of the narrative and actually witnessing the events taking place. Is less effective on shorter forms of writing, such as letters
Memory Transcription- sits down with paper and listens to someone recall a memory. Similar to Tome Viewing, he views the actual event, but instead of remembering it, he transcribes everything that takes place perfectly onto paper.
Lore Talents: Historian and Politics
Patron: Nysander, Wisdom and Theatre
Unique Racial Features: Boring and human! Well-rounded.
Backstory: Adelbert Markham was born to a well-off merchant family. He inherited the family business and did fairly well with it, but his true passion was in learning. He stockpiled the family money and used it to become patron of a library in the town, which in turn gave him political clout. Once he became involved in the political process, he was hooked to it. Adelbert found a natural talent and charisma in being a politician. It brought him a success that mercantilism never had.
