Reborn in a Fantasy World, This Time I Shall...!

One character sheet coming up!

Vrelenor

Name: Vrelenor (not his real name, but this is his idea of what an elven mage should be called and his old name was boring)
Age: 21 mental and whatever the equivalent is physically for elves in this world.
Gender: Male.
Race: Elf
Appearance: Tall with dark hair and pointy elf ears, he'll dress the part of wizard ASAP. I have no artistic talent, but got one of those free AI's to whip something up, not sure what's going on with the cape but it has an appropriate amount of functionless belts and gets the idea across well enough.

Personality: Cheerful, friendly, convinced he's going to be the cool hero here, pretty bold, thinks he's funny. Definitely overconfident since he's yet to have that confidence crushed out of him by reality.
History: Not much of interest really, he was a reasonably smart college graduate, he'd grown up middle class, wasn't really paying the whole "crippling student loan debt" thing any attention and was sure he'd be getting some great tech job any day now. He was on the plane to make a connection at JFK, returning from a fun vacation where he'd got to go to one of those big conventions, taking advantage of his parents generosity and a schedule free of both classes and working.
Level:1
Stats: (and why he picked them)
STR: 1 (pft, like he's going to hit things)
DEX: 2 (can't miss those cool spells he's totally getting)
MAG: 3 (time to be a wizard)
DEF: 1 (just don't be hit, can't be that hard)
RES: 1 (just don't be hit, can't be that hard, besides there's probably healing magic anyway)
AGI: 2 (run away faster, cast spells faster)
LCK: 2 (You can never be too lucky, besides he's the protagonist now, so maybe this is how plot armour works, pity he needs to spend the rest of his points in MAG)
Skills: None of these looked very cheaty, but maybe it's just a matter of figuring it out with his superior modern education (that is to say a basic college education in the entirely irrelevant field of web development) once he gets to try it out.
Skill Name: [Ice Magic]
Skill Description: Allows the manipulation of ice magic to cast ice spells.
(Simple logic here, he needs something that sounds capable of fighting because there's no way he's been transported to another world to not fight for his life, lightning is cool but one note, video games have taught him that fire immunity is everywhere, while fire magic is usually just as good with the bonus of making ice walls and stuff, plus he can probably learn more magic later, hopefully)
Other: Anything else of note? Put it here.

Reborn in a Fantasy World, This Time I Shall...! (Interest Check)

Very interested, been reading quite a few isekai/litrpg type stories lately.

Going to make my guy a mage because magic is cool.

The Symphony - A Fated Quest

Anything going on here?

The Symphony - A Fated Quest

Was hardly going to just keep walking Iveus thinks to himself at the soldier's cry, a massacre like this is not something you just ignore, and this road wasn't meant to be particularly dangerous. It all makes sense when the soldier mentions the twisted song, the Maestro's minions are active already, he'd known it was only a matter of time of course, he wouldn't have The Tome if it wasn't.

"Don't you worry about Koi, I'll handle it." He doubts the poor fellow actually heard, but no harm in offering a little hope. Iveus right hand goes to the large belt pouch with the Tome within, pulling it out even as he starts walking down the road to Koi and a brisk walk.

Koi won't fall like these soldiers did, because he'll be there.

Iveus, The Learned Evoker

The Learned Evoker, Sage of Stormbolts

"I've always found experience to be the best teacher."
—Iveus

Iveus Stoneguard

RACE

Human

CLASS

Iveus is a powerful and experienced Evoker Wizard, he studied at the Gildspire, a prestigious college within Arcane Junction and has gained a mastery of the school few can match.

Appearance

Iveus has a weathered look about him, his age apparent in the creased and occasionally scarred skin, pale hair and a weight to his gaze. Yet he is by no means frail, his back as straight as when he arrived in Arcane Junction, his hair as long and thick as ever, his grey eyes no less bright with curiousity and intellect.
He measures a respectable 6 feet, and while he lacks the muscles of a warrior or youth, he has taken every effort to remain fit and it shows.
As befits a wizard of his standing he dresses in durable tailored robes, preferring shades of grey and blue, and is rarely seen without at least a few pieces of enchanted jewelery.

HISTORY

Born to a family of moderately successful mercahnts within the lands of the Solar Brotherhood, from a young age he showed the signs of Lightning Affinity and the related arcane potential, little things like unusually potent static shocks after playing on rugs as a child and sensing the coming of thunderstorms a little earlier than everyone else. His family saw the potential and hired tutor to begin instruction in his early teens, teaching him the basics of the arcane as well as topics of history, geography, literature and mathematics, all so he could impress his way into one of the prestigious arcane colleges of Arcane Junction.
At the age of 17 he was accepted into the Gildspire, one of the foremost colleges of Evocation in Arcane Junction, and therefore the world. For the next decade he studied, attending lectures, analysing tomes and scrolls, and experimenting, his primary area of study was naturally Evocation with a focus on the manipulation of Lightning, but it was also here that he first took an interest in history, for many of the reference texts were centuries old. When his 10 years of formal study were finally up, he simply opted to remain, joining the ranks of researchers and teachers, a position available due to his exemplary performance.
As his knowledge and power grew, he became more independant, and indeed more wealthy for the services of an expert wizard are always in demand. It was at this point that he began to pursue his own interest in history, long had he been frustrated by the lack of deatils on past events, how did the world not know where the Maestro was bound? Why is there nothing but myth to explain the origins of nations? He lead research expeditions to the corners of the world, always well staffed as helping on such an exhibition meant spending weeks with the personal attention a master evoker, meant meeting his connections in the artefact trade, meant getting to leave the city and get actual practice blasting rubble to ash, or indeed blasting bandits, goblins and other such threats.
he even spent a few years in The Ironspire Citadel, studying their ancient records. Some called his studies pointless, distractions from the true study of magic, not many though, not since that time in his late 40s he challenged one of them to a wizard's duel and struck him down with a single bolt of lightning.

FEARS

Iveous is not a man particularly prone to fear, for he is powerful, experienced and perhaps even wise.
Of course he is only mortal, and like all mortals, he fears death, it's not a topic he dwells upon, the opposite in fact, he actively pushes it from his mind.
Being chosen by the fates therefore has brought a sense of dread he consciously avoids acknowledging, for he knows that the Chosen Five died to a man in the sealing of Malakith, and it seems even that did not hold him. Still, fear shall not get between him and what must be done.

GOALS

Iveus has always sought to unravel the mysteries of the past, to pick the facts out of mythology, were all the human lands really once united beneath a single banner, or is that just a story told by those who believe their particular nation should "reunite" them through conquest? Where was Malakith sealed?
It's not really about any one of those or the many other questions one can ask, it's the big picture, how can one learn from history when it's buried in superstition and legends.
Even beyond that, Iveus wants to preserve the knowledge of the present for those who come later, he wants to create a true archive of knowledge.

That of course was before the Fates came to him. He has two new goals: His first priority is that Malakith must be defeated once more, his second is to find out why he was even able to break free when every source agreed the bindings were unbreakable, and once he knows, he intends to remedy that weakness.
Survival would be nice too, but he knows the Fated Five didn't, so tries not to think about that.

SECRETS

Nothing particularly noteworthy, Iveus has never been one for secrecy, and has spent most of his life surrounded by the sort of nosy magi who sniff out the faintest hint of intrigue.

FLAW

From a combat perspective, there's the fact that he hasn't the faintest clue about nonmagical fighting, nor has he ever worn armour.
On a more personal note however, Iveus has become rather complacent, for while he is no fool, it's been over a decade since he was truly challenged in an area of strength, as such he is rather overconfident about his chances in general.

Skills

While Iveus has dedicated most of his life to studying and improving his own magic, he has a few more mundane skills that might prove useful.
Years studying the past, grasping for any fragments of written record forced him to pick up a variety of languages modern and dead.
He's got experience rockclimbing, spelunking, and freediving, having lead many an archeological expedition to half buried or flooded ruins.
He's passable at orienteering with a good map (of which he own a valuable collection), though dependant on a clear night sky or good compass.
He also has honed his ability to notice magic, to spot when an object is enchanted or sense when something is affecting the ambient mana flows.

ABILITIES

Iveus is a wizard, a master evoker, his innate affinity is lightning, which will always be where he is strongest and he possesses a hard earned mastery of the school of evocation in general, possessing a masterful command of magical energy earned through decades of study. With a focused will and a gesture magic is channeled from within to affect the world around him, commanding the elements to his bidding.

Lightning:Iveous can call lightning from the sky or an outstretched finger, he can even cause it to arc between foes. As well as being the magic with which he is most innately in tune, he has always favoured it for the mix of destructive power and precise control, ideal for when you need to blast something to a charred pillar without damaging damaging the ancient mosaic 3 feet away.

Wind:Iveus can call up gusts of wind to blow away dust and fog, hinder arrows, fan a blaze or even send lighter foes flying.

Fire:While he prefers his lightning, Iveus has spent many years honing and expanding his power, he can throw explosive fireballs and unleash gouts of flame from his hands.

Ice:As with fire, not a specialty, but nonetheless at his disposal, generally not as effective as his other options, but he can call a forth a cone of heat stealing hail, shards of ice and such when the need arises.

Elemental Wall:With a sweeping gesture a thing barrier is formed from elemental power. A wall of flames or lightning is insubstantial, but harmful to those who touch it. A wall of ice provides a fragile, slippery, yet readily shaped opaque barrier. A wall of wind will hinder the passage of light objects like arrows and gases.

Borne aloft:An advanced technique of Wind, Iveus' magic lifts him into the air atop a miniature twister, he can maintain a speed comparable to walking or hover mostly in place while still being able to focus on other spells, or give it his full focus and move at a sprint.

FATED WEAPON

The Tome of Fated Words is Iveus gift, an weathered looking book embroidered with golden fated thread, when opened and held in hand the pages flutter, the sound of rustling paper audible to the holder over any amount of ambient noise, before landing open of their own accord, which power activates depends entirely one which pages appear.

Pages of Fated Wisdom:This power typically manifests outside of combat, when Iveus is not attempting a spell. Simple in form, the tome opens to pages containing some excerpt of text that bears relevance to Iveus current situation.

Fated Incantations:This is the power which typically shows up in combat, these pages contain incantations which seem to slip from the mind as soon as you look away from the page, but when Iveus chants them aloud as he casts a spell, they change it, generally making it stronger somehow, and always making it louder, a staccato of echoing thunder following every lightning bolt, fire and wind roar with sound of a gale, ice carries the deafening crack of glaciers breaking. The fleeting nature means he must focus his eyes upon the book for the entire chant, lifting them away to aim only as he speaks the final syllable and leaving him vulnerable until then.
Combat isn't strictly a condition, its just that Iveus is an evoker and that's when he casts big spells.

And sometimes, the pages just flutter, never settling. Iveus does not yet know why this happens, though the rustling of paper is oddly comforting.

The Symphony

This looks interesting.
I'm currently thinking of a scholarly wizard, someone who has studied the history of the world, seeking the truth behind the old myths like the tales of the Fated Heroes. How does that sound?

I'd be interested, if there's still room.

POKeMON: A Mystery - Always Open

Daniel and those with him finally reached the infirmary, outside it's not much to look at, the wide double doors almost blending into the wall, though a glowing sign above them made them hard to miss (probably a legal requirement, it certainly looked a little out of place), Daniel pressed a button by the doors that sent them swinging open.
The interior was much like any other ships infirmary, very white, carts and stretchers held in place by some mechanism on the floors, a few machines that probably do something important (not that Daniel could guess what) and a doorway leading further back, though an arrow pointing left is all that's visible beyond the threshold. What was noticeably missing was whoever normally manned the front desk, in fact when the sound of footsteps faded, it was oddly silent within.
"I suppose the staff might have evacuated when the speakers said to, no reason to stay if there's no patients, but you'd think one of them would have made it here before us."
While Daniel muses aloud, Alakazam deposits Ace on one of the stretchers.
"Anyone know what to do now? My medical knowledge extends no further than spraying Full Restores on my team."

POKeMON: A Mystery - Always Open

Typing up my idea for a description of the Infrimary, but I'm not sure whether to have anyone staffing it.
What does everyone else think?
