And then there's Oz. An independent mage not part of an organization, who is still technically tied to his house, who is being spied on by Reina due to his father's legacy, who probably also has government eyes on him for the same reason. It is only a matter of time before someone scoops this man up once they realize what kind of magecraft he has. I can almost see him getting kidnapped by one group and then a second group "rescuing" him just for them to not release him so he's just kidnapped again.
@ERode
I imagine that since magic is tied to the Aspects and the aspects are almost philosophies of how one approaches magic, that certain personalities are better suited for some aspects. So not all mages of an aspect would have shared personality traits, but I personally feel like the higher on the food chain you look, the more similarities you'd see.

It'd be difficult to find a skilled Precedence that was also shy and a pushover, so most of them are likely confident if not arrogant since spells that build off authority are probably stronger in the hands of mages that believe they're an authority figure.

Similarly hard to find:
Obscurity that forgoes lying and manipulation
Manifestation with no aspirations
Complexity that isn't perceptive
And Dynamicism that's scared of change.

So I think there'll be some "same hat!" energy between those with like-crests if nothing else.
@ERode
I don't think Oz left House Falloch on bad terms. He didn't metaphorically leave the house as in he disowned himself, he just physically left to get his own place and do research outside of Falloch's libraries. So I don't think they'd have a contract open on him.

However, I feel like as Oz transitioned into the adult mage world, he probably found out that he likes both Obscurity and Precedence crested because one is associated with secrets and mysteries and hidden truths while the other is about absolute truths and rules and authority. Oz is trying to learn all the secrets, all the rules, and all forms of truth because he wants to define what the universe is. They probably hate him though. He brings hidden things into the light and tries to bend rules to see what breaks.

I feel like once he does meet Amaya and Reina he's going to have to mediate between the two to keep them from killing each other. He's a small man stepping into a large world and has no clue the kind of history these two would have experienced.
@Remram
One past version of Oz was a spellsniper so I'd find it fun to explore him learning firearms, but this version's reliance on his hands to do calculations would make it difficult. So I meant it as a half-joke myself.

I'd be interested in seeing if the idea comes up naturally through the course of the RP but I don't plan on him using a firearm.
@Remram
He wouldn't be opposed.
Excited to start this. Oz has been a character concept that has been redesigned like 8 times, so glad to finally give him the suffering he deserves. (He doesn't deserve it but he does for being one of my characters)

@Remram
Your character, that knows the complexities of the actual physical properties of practical objects.
🤝
My character, that knows the complexities of abstract fundamentals of magic, gravity, and other properties of physics. Who also can take the variables of objects to change their properties, just needs to know what variables even exist.

They'd work so well together if mages didn't hate sharing their trade secrets.


Ozymandias "Oz" Falloch

23 | He/Him | 5’7 ft. | Complexity



Here's Ozymandias. Let me know if there's anything I should fix prior to applications getting acceptance.
Also, Oz is designed to be a character who rarely gets what he wants and when he does it isn't how he wanted it. A tasked failed successfully type of guy. Tries his best and does a good job just to figure out he wasted his time or that the task was nonsense. So, please make him suffer.

✚ PERSONALITY ✚

Observant ─ Opportunistic ─ TruthfulDisloyal ─ Rude ─ Bleak

During his childhood, Bruno put his trust in many individuals that didn't live up to their promises. Due to this, he offers no loyalty to anyone and expects none in return. His lack of loyalty does not mean he'll lie or cheat you though as Bruno hates liars. If there is something he doesn't want you to know or figures you wouldn't like to hear, then he simply keep his mouth shut. You can be certain that whatever comes out of his mouth is something he fully believes to be true, although this means he'll also be rudely blunt about it. A life of poverty has led him to be watchful and always keeping an eye out for new opportunities, but it has also showed him how low people can go and has given him a bleak outlook on life.

✚ HISTORY ✚

Raised in poverty, Bruno grew to hate the environment his kingdom bred. Yet, in order to gain freedom from the chains of economy, Bruno would join the military and rise through the ranks until he managed to acquire a comfortable life with a decent sized home in a trade city. But the kingdom's war would never end and taxes continued to rise, such that he felt that his wealth was threatened. He worked towards getting transferred to the investigative unit where income was more certain, but still he was paranoid that he'd return to a life of squalor. Bruno's new position gave him access to classified information while also being one of the people in charge of interrogating spies and traitors. He'd know if they started putting pieces together that pointed at him, and then he could stop. It was the perfect crime, and he gained a luxurious life with a manor in the capitol city by selling info to the enemy. In a twist of fate, some info he had sold led to in old friend, and the only one he had, getting killed. After that, he became more reclusive, sloppier, and less vigilant of his pursuers. Bruno had fallen prey to his hubris and his greed. But, before he could be arrested, he suddenly vanished.

If you two read my most recent post, you'll see the start of my plan to write out Vhoth and Penni. The rest of that plan is simple. The group is sent out on an assignment before Vhoth recovers and Penni refuses to leave Vhoth behind. The group continues without them, and Vhoth and Penni get assigned a different mission with a different group of returning V.E.T.s after Vhoth recovers.
