@MigyudonHigh-Speed Incantation is a personal skill, not that the distinction comes up often.

On another note, I'd better finish my master soon, before I'm holding back the RP. I'll put him here as a W.I.P. in case anyone has any advice.

Name: August Thane
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Master of: Archer of Black
Command Seal Location: Right Hand
Origin: Seeking

A man who doesn’t give up easily, August believes that the best approach to a difficult situation is to remain calm, confident, and focus on making optimal decisions. His respect is highest toward those who deny their lot in life and never give up, while he has little patience for people who give up easily or waste time worrying about their chances of failure. August isn’t afraid to contend with enemies while at a disadvantage and has very few moral qualms. However, he has a strong understanding of the value of mage bloodlines, and tries to refrain from killing a mage when it would result in the destruction of their family’s careers as mages. As a mage trying to further his family, August’s intent for the Holy Grail is to reach the root. However, if he should end up unable or unwilling to sacrifice his servant, he would be satisfied with gaining the second magic: “Kaleidoscope”.

The Thane's magic bloodline stretches back many generations, and for most of those generations, they’ve been just barely tolerated by the Mage’s Association. The Thanes were known for taking little pride in their own work as mages, making indecent use of modern technology to make up for what was seen as a weak magic crest, and were suspected of stealing mystic codes and research notes from various minor families throughout history. In a secluded home in rural England in 1978, August Thane was born into the family as an only child. His mother, Marianne, was little more than a stooge, selected by his family because for her high capacity to bear magically inclined children, and because she wasn’t from a high-up family that would demand much in return. His father, Charles, was a somewhat unforgiving man, and so August began an early education in magic, combat, and “treasure hunting”. When August was 19, Charles suffered an unusual injury during an expedition that left him unable to properly utilize his magic circuits, and August inherited the Thane magic crest. Throughout the years that followed, August completed his training under his mother and set off to salvage the Thane family name in the eyes of the greater magic community.

In the years that followed, August managed to establish himself as someone the clock tower could rely on, retrieving various artifacts for private clients in positions of power in the association. Recently, however, his jobs have gotten riskier and risker, causing August to wonder if the Association is testing the limits of a new operative, or trying to get rid of him without getting blood on their hands.
