Name: Lannick Karan
Gender: Male
Age: 46
Race: Human
Class: Mage

Appearance: Lannick is a slender man but not srawny or weak in appearance. He has a head of thick black hair, long and held in a pony tail at the nape of his neck. He also has a full black beard. His eyes are brilliant blue and very intense though they rarely reflect his emotions. At least not until he gets to know people well. His general actions and attitude bely his stoic expression but he still hangs onto his expressionless mask believing it fools people into not knowing what he is thinking. He dresses in typical robes, generally brilliant scarlet in color and tends to stand out among people because of it. He never minds. 

Personality: Lannick is truly chaotic. He is neither good nor evil, and simply is. He tries to see all sides of every argument and yet never agree or disagree with anyone. He offers his opinions but thats about it, and if he strongly believes something he will just handle it/take the action himself if no one else agrees with him. He is the guy who will jump off a cliff if no one can figure out how to get to the bottom safely. He trust a lot in luck. He has a good sense of humor and laughs at most things, including himself, with ease. He is curious and adventurous and travels just for the sake of knowledge. He collects bizzare things simply because they are bizzare. This extends to his spells: he collects those that have wild effects, seem useless, or else he likes to come up with wild and unusual ways to use traditional spells. He is very intelligent but his attention span is limited. He generally stays on the right side of the law, except when he doesn't. He generally likes people, except when he doesn't. 

Backstory: to come soon 

Equipment: clothing (red robes, black traveling boots, belt with several pouches, sturdy weatherproof cloak which serves as cloak, raincoat, and tent or blanket all in one), wooden staff painted brilliant eye-smarting yellow...the staff is a simple magical item, the first one he ever made so he's really partial to it. It has the abilities of the “cantrip” varieties of unlock, light, and fire. He can unlock any non magical-basic lock if struck. At times in combat (entirely random) it casts a light spell on the target. At times, both in and out of combat, it randomly lights non-magical flammable materials on fire. This is sometimes very problematic and Lannick usually has a spell ready to put out any unexpected fire. He has a vast collection of bizarre spell components, herbs, coins, and various kick-knacks stored in the pouches around his waist...only he knows what sort of order they are in and in truth much of the time he just guesses. The things inside can be either extremely valuable or worthless, and often he has both jumbled together in disarray. He travels light, relying on luck and his spells to get him through the problems. 

Abilities: Lannick is a quick thinker, and loves to come up with odd solutions to ordinary problems. He also likes to find uses for useless things. He loves all things magical and tends to focus his abilities on finding and collecting them if they are suitably odd enough. He is a well trained mage, despite his oddities, and able to cast spells with alacrity. He focuses on alterations and transmutation spells or anything traditionally considered useless while shunning the stereotypical staple spells that many people are familiar with. He can fight with his staff with enough skill to buy him a minute to run away and that’s about it. He also is a very genial person (except when he's not) and can generally smooth over arguments if things aren't too crazy.
