Kayl'thas Vysoren old
Exiled Wizard-Prince of Whiteshore (a.k.a. Kayl)
Kayl'thas Vysoren is a wandering exile and wizard. He was heir to the great House Vysoren of Whiteshore prior to his self-imposed exile. He carries a powerful oghmatic curse which mutes his natural connection to the Weave. Kayl is First Apprentice to Mak'hzor and leads The Dragon's Breath. He is currently traveling Aldria in search of a way to resolve his plight.
Physical Description
Identifying Characteristics
Kayl possesses a mane of hair as pure as freshly fallen snow, cascading in unruly waves to frame his face. His locks, though wild, seem to hold a certain ethereal elegance. His alabaster skin, paler than most, hints at a life spent in the shadows, both literal and figurative. It's as if he carries the weight of his past on his very skin.
His eyes, though weary, gleam with a fierce resilience. They hold the wisdom of someone who has endured hardship, loss, and betrayal. They are also the windows to a brilliant mind, a mind that once commanded the arcane arts with unparalleled mastery.
Apparel & Accessories
Dressed in worn, traveler's clothing, Kayl appears to have embraced the life of an outcast. His cloak, once vibrant and regal, now bears the scars of countless journeys through harsh terrains. It clings to him like a loyal companion, concealing his diamond-shaped arcane focus. The focus radiates faint, otherworldly energy. It's a symbol of his heritage, and a source of both power and sorrow.
Specialized Equipment
Upon Kayl's right hand is a ring which ripples and shimmers with an otherworldly glow, its band adorned with enchanting runes that pulse with latent power. The Ring of Arcane Resurgence, a gift from the Archwizard, heightens Kayl's arcane connection, enabling him to cast spells with greater precision and control.
Kayl wears a discreet but potent Ring of Mind-shielding on his middle finger. This unadorned silver band forms an invisible barrier around his thoughts, protecting him from psychic intrusions, enchantments, and mind-altering spells.
Draped around Kayl's neck is the enigmatic Amulet of the Planes, a mesmerizing artifact forged from lustrous, dark metal. Its centerpiece, a multifaceted gem that shimmers with the essence of otherworldly landscapes.
Mental characteristics
Education
Kayl's educational journey is a tapestry woven from noble roots and the pursuit of arcane mastery. It began in the great halls of Whiteshore, his family's ancestral home, where the young scholar's magical potential began to unfurl. His thirst for knowledge led him to Kirador's prestigious wizard college, where he honed his talents and eventually encountered the legendary Archwizard Mak'hzor.
Brought under Makhzor's tutelage, Kayl delved deep into arcane secrets, and together, they embarked on a transformative journey to Vaya'Vilial, the hallowed citadel of boundless knowledge at the center of Aldria. There, amidst towering spires and hidden tomes, Kayl's connection to magic deepened.
Yet, in a sudden turn of events, the young wizard found himself rent by a powerful oghmatic curse, echoes of a forbidden knowledge shredding at his mind. Now Kayl wanders on borrowed time, driven by a desire to uncover not only the arcane mysteries of the world but also the secrets concealed within his own heart.
Mental Trauma
Kayl suffers from an afflication wrought by the forbidden knowledge he found hidden deep within the recesses of the Boundless Citadel. An oghmatic curse lay over it, and now tears at his mind. Although his will remains unbroken, the curse is immensely painful and cannot be undone with "Remove Curse".
Personality Characteristics
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Kayl'thas possesses an inquisitive and nimble intellect. His mind is a crucible of curiosity, constantly thirsting for knowledge, especially in the arcane realm. His ability to analyze situations, solve problems, and unravel the intricacies of magic is a testament to his scholarly nature.
Kayl's stargazing affinity goes beyond fascination; he possesses an intuitive grasp of celestial patterns, using this knowledge for navigation, predicting celestial events, and enhancing his magical abilities.
Kayl finds it challenging to engage in mundane, everyday tasks. He is easily frustrated by routine chores, administrative matters, or activities that don't align with his goals.
Kayl tends to be overly cautious and hesitant when it comes to trusting new individuals or unfamiliar entities. While this wariness has its merits, it can also hinder forming new alliances
Personality Quirks
When Kayl'thas delves deep into thought or concentration, he absentmindedly hums a spell's incantation, a quirk known as his "arcane cadence." This subconscious hum reveals his inner state, indicating moments of contemplation or when he faces complex challenges. His friends and allies have come to recognize this cadence as a telltale sign of his mental immersion.
Despite his meager circumstances, Kayl possesses a fascination for dusty tomes and grimoires. He tirelessly searches libraries, bookshops, and ruins for forgotten knowledge and hidden spells, cluttering his quarters with these cryptic texts, each holding a unique significance.
Kayl has a penchant for stargazing, often spending nights under the open sky. His unique quirk is naming constellations, adding whimsical tales to their origins. This cosmic passion brings him solace and inspires his companions, infusing their journeys with wonder and enchantment.
Social
Hobbies & Pets
Astafel is a remarkable raven with sleek ebony feathers that shimmer iridescent blue, and has been Kayl's friend through many dangers. Astafel possesses extraordinary perception and an uncanny ability to sense and unravel hidden magic. It deciphers cryptic runes, detects mystical relics, and warns Kayl of magical threats. Astafel's eerie, melodic cawing can evoke forgotten memories and emotions, making it a cherished companion in moments of reflection and magical study.
