Haranos the Wise

Head Scholar Haranos Lasandar (a.k.a. The All-knowing)

A bald man with a grey beard down to his toes stands hunched in a doorway; his weary eyes still shine with knowledge and power. He is clutching a tome of magical insight, holding it beside his long, beige robes. A belt wraps it tight to his waist and an ornate quill is tucked inside it. He is Haranos the Wise, founder of the Academy and the brightest mind to ever grace Blivera.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

As a magic-user and man who prized knowledge over physicality, Haranos had a weak stature; he was small and lacked any muscle. He had a sufficient amount of weight and he was in perfect health.

Physical quirks

Haranos was left-handed and walked with a hunch in his last century of life.

Special abilities

Magic abilities due to his race - ascendal - which were refined through self-teaching and some tutoring.

Apparel & Accessories

After founding his library Haranos was always seen to wear long beige robes with a leather belt around the west.

Specialized Equipment

In his younger days Haranos carried a staff he crafted, but he eventually grew powerful to not require a vessel for his magic.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Born to a wealthy ascendal family, Haranos was always destined for greatness. Always seeking knowledge, he founded a great library at age 103, before transforming it into an academy for magic 111 years later. He creatively named it 'The Academy.' Every great wizard since has arisen from that ancient institute.

Educated by scholars, as customary among ascendals, he had little time for military combat but instead studied the arcane arts and could certainly use this if in need of a fight.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Founding the Great Library and the Academy.

Intellectual Characteristics

Incredibly intelligent with an astute mind for detail, Haranos was unrivalled in wit and logistical capability. Additionally, he excelled at magic and was certainly the most powerful spell-caster of all time, save perhaps for the Black Queen.

Morality & Philosophy

Valuing knowledge and holding it dear, Haranos believed that every person contained their own information and knowledge and thus was important. Strictly a pacifist, Haranos strongly opposed all violence and thought it intellectually inferior if unwarranted. He did embrace violence if used for the greater good, as seen in his contributions to the War for the Light.
