Mental characteristics
Personal history
Originally from Daborak, Ernest grew up on a farm, helping his family work the land from the young age of 10. His family did not care for history or lineages, only for hard, honest work, and to strive to do best you can, with resources you have. As such, life was hard, simple, yet wholesome.
At the age of 11, Ernest discovered his talent for magic, accidentally scorching a bale of hay. His parents being less impressed at the loss, yet seeing the potential of their only son, planned on sending him to Majital when their son reached adulthood, for where else would be better place for the magically gifted than the land of the Mages guild itself?
However, it was not to be, at least not in the way he envisioned it. At 15, his mother passed away, and a year later, his father. Only 16 and having inherited the farm from his parents with no way to run it single-handedly, Ernest sold the farm, and used the funds to start anew in Majital, joining the Mages guild, to study and kindle his growing fascination of pyromancy.
Growing up in Majital he acquired a taste for spirits and tobacco, and has taken an interest in brewing his own beverages as well, as a minor hobby he occasionally indulges in. A good bonfire is so much more enjoyable with a pipe in one hand and a glass in the other.
His time in the Mages guild only strengthened his fascination with pyromancy, having access to the vast amount of knowledge held within the guild, even if it was but a fraction compared to before the Reckoning. His search for knowledge drives him, discovering and developing the arcane power of flame, both ancient and new means to his ultimate goal, becoming one of the greatest minds on the field of pyromancy, if not the greatest.
