Alright alright, after so much waffling I could have opened a 24 hour waffle shop, I am finally done with my CS. I'm not all that sure about its quality, as I've never gone for S class level characters before, so by all means tear me a new one if it isn't up to snuff (especially regarding my custom magic).

A perfectionist in just about every sense of the word, Albert firmly believes in the power of planning and sticks rigidly to strategies and fallback strategies that he devises. And although he is generally calm and collected, he has proven time and again to actually have a very short fuse when things catastrophically away from plan. But as long as things are going well, he is cordial and polite to both ally and enemy alike. Because even on the battlefield, the Saint holds himself and his men to very strict expectations of integrity and civility.
As one would expect from such a man, Albert is incredibly analytical and meticulous, almost to the point of obsession. If given the chance, he will personally calculate and measure every minute detail of a scenario before acting, although even he is aware that such an opportunity will likely never come. This goes one step further, as the Library Hunter spends far more time keeping his quarters immaculate than one ever should. Juno help you if you track so much as a grain of dirt into his sanctuary.
And while not overly religious himself, he still believes in the Librarium’s message of advancement and promise of order. But at the same time, he is not blind to the corruption and abuse of power that runs rampant in the outskirts of civilization, with such displays being one of the few things that can make him trade in his politeness for a sharp tongue and barely contained fury. And with such a strong sense of justice, even Albert wonders sometimes catches himself wondering if he truly is one the right side.“ The most beautiful sentence ever conceived by man only contains four words: All according to plan.”| Name: |Faust, Albert
| Alias|Nickames|Titles: |The Hero of Velen, The Phantom Blade
| G e n d er: |Male
| R a n k: |S
| Age: |24
| Sector : |Library Hunter, Saint
| History: |The Faust name is not one that is held in the brightest of lights. A family of wealthy entrepreneurs, the Faust line has always had a history of gaining the most when those around them lose much. When the Decretius Librarium usurped the throne, it was the Faust family that survived the ensuing chaos and came up near the top, having been handsomely rewarded for helping the church’s bid for supremacy. And thus, for over a century the name has been associated with greed and power.
Enter Albert Faust, fourth son of the current head of the family. His time with his family was brief, as he exhibited a potential for magic at the early age of 8 years old and was taken in by the Librarium. Many suspected one that had been spoiled by such a luxurious lifestyle wouldn’t make it far in the church, but Albert would go on to show that not only did he have potential, but also a talent for magic. But that didn’t mean life within the church was easy for him, as he noticed out of the corner of his eye the looks of disdain others had for him.
By the time he was 18, Albert was offered a number of cushy positions within the church due to his family’s name, but the young mage insisted on becoming a Library Hunter for reasons that he refused to disclose. His first few years as a Library Hunter went by without much recognition for him, but his skill at magic was honed by the countless close brushes with death that came his way as he traversed the unforgiving landscape below Pandora. In fact, not many even knew of the estranged son of one of the most prominent figures of the land. That is until the day that a 21 year old Albert showed up in Velen.
Facts regarding the incident are murky, but the prevailing story that the Librarium supports is that Albert singlehandedly subjugated a rogue Sky Pirate Guild that had been extorting the small town of Velen. And for his heroic feat, the mage was given the title of Saint and was lauded as a hero of both the Librarium and the people. While Albert accepted the title graciously and wears the saber that was crafted for him at all times, his mood takes a strange shift when talk of his deed is brought up.
Since then, the Hero of Velen has been hunting down other Sky Pirate Guilds, seeking to preserve the peace that the Librarium has created. So far, he has successfully taken down a score of rogue Sky Pirate Guilds with the aid of local Cleric Knights. However, despite his deeds, the Faust name still hangs over him though, making the public’s opinion of him incredibly divisive.
| Magic: |
- Requip – The Knight: A form of Spatial Magic, Requip gives Albert access to a small arsenal of weapons that allow his fussy mind to pick the appropriate weapon and armor for whatever situation he finds himself in. And given his affluent background and status as Saint, he has access to a great deal of options.
Albert is by no means a master of this magic, so he is actually somewhat slow when it comes to using it and is oftentimes unable to switch equipment once the fighting begins.- Rift: Another type of Spatial Magic, Rift opens up opaque portals that connects two points in the world. An observant individual can tell when one of these rifts is about to be opened, as the spot it appears in will briefly surge in magical energy and a soft tearing noise will emit from that point. Once opened, these portals maintain a consistent shape and cannot be moved, either by outside forces or by Albert himself.
This magic is limited by the fact that there is a maximum size the portals can be made into, for Albert it’s about 10’x 10’, not to mention that they can only take on circular to oval-like shapes. This magic also requires a great deal of concentration, so anything that can affect Albert’s senses or attention will in turn affect the speed and accuracy at which he can use Rift.
| Miscs : |His saber, the symbol of his status as a Librarium Saint, is beautifully adorned and has Juno’s symbol embossed on the blade itself. While it is not usually his go to weapon, it is always at his side.

@Crimson Raven On the contrary, that was the exact kind of criticism I was looking for. You brought up a lot of points that I didn't even begin to consider and made me realize that even for an S class mage the power is probably too good. I will also make sure to go in and specify exactly what kind of equipment he has, but believe me when I say that I was not going to pull any cheeky meta game nonsense, especially since I specified that he can't Requip mid-fight. I'll wait until I hear from a GM first, but I'll likely change the portals to something a bit more tame like Teleportation.
Thanks for taking the time to read through it.
