If there was a long running joke within the world of magi then it would have been the Trasks; an old family with Welsh roots that despite their efforts had yet to produce any mages of noteworthy talent barely clinging on with any dignity that came with such a long bloodline. Perhaps what even made them such a greater joke was their futile pursuit to create a 'Dragon Slayer' in order to seek the Philosopher Stone through the blood of false dragons, elemental chimera in the shape of dragons. To put it bluntly, none of them had the talent to create creatures as intricate as these, which often lead to failed specimens and wasted years and resources.
Well, that was until Kaden was born. The boy had something that the many generations of Trasks did not, an indescribable talent and intelligence that gave the family hope for a better future. He was their only hope and of course, he succeeded where his ancestors had failed over and over again. What Kaden had brought into the world was the first successful attempt in creating their draconic chimera when he was only eighteen-years-old and raised it himself with the sole purpose of killing it and bathe in its blood to begin the process of becoming a 'Philosopher's Stone,' a process that is still performed today.
Time went on and Kaden found himself with a wife and a child as well as a prestigious position as a professor within The Clocktower. He had earned himself the reputation as a brilliant, well liked professor, but one with views that effort and talent were more important than simply being born within the right family, something that had irked the conservative faction of the tower. However, like many other magus he was not what a regular person would call an ideal father; he holed himself in his studies and while he loved his son, Lewis, he wasn't around him as often as he should have been.
Nothing dramatic happened for many years, save for Kaden's once black hair turning gray. He was an old man now, his wife was elderly, and Lewis was married and had a child of his own while also making great strides in his career as a magus. His son would become his successor when Kaden would eventually past and the Trask name would be held with high-esteem. He was content with his life.
It was supposed to be like any normal day; wake up, get dressed, grab a coffee and sandwich for breakfast on the way to the Clocktower, and go on with his hours of lecturing. For awhile life just went on like usual, however, in the middle of a lecture he was pulled away by a staff member to speak with him about an urgent matter. It was about Lewis, he was dead. It was the first time in his long, illustrious career as a professor that he would cancel midway through a lecture.
The cause of death was suicide. Lewis had left a letter explaining in painful detail of his torment, but in short, he could not handle the life of a magus. The life of endless dedication, wasting away for a reward that was always out of reach while having the mounting pressure of being just like his father was too much for him to take.
To recreate and regress the world back to the Age of Gods so that there a divine direction in the world so no one lives without a purpose and so there is an afterlife for his dead son.

ᴍᴀɢᴇᴄʀᴀꜰᴛAttribute-Magnetism: The attribute passed down the Trask line. It is used to read the flow of things and to gather and repel them. When used with his elemental affinity, he has an exceedingly high level of manipulating their shape and structure at will, or to manipulate their chimera.
Trask Alchemy- Also known as Draconic Alchemy, the Trasks have spent their lives creating Chimera that act as and function like pseudo-dragons as well as act as their familiars though they take time to create due to how intricate and vary in their strength. Each dragon can perform a 'Dragons Breath' though not on the same level as a true dragon.
Dragon Magecraft: In actuality this could be classified as Beast Magecraft. Throughout centuries of myths, the act slaying dragons has had a transformative property though that is mainly because of the blood of dragons does have magical effects. For the Trasks, creating dragons these pseudo-dragons for the purpose of symbolic act of slaying them and bathing/consuming their blood to refine their own bodies into a Philosopher Stone or something akin to it. It is essentially self-refinement.
Through the countless butchering of his own creations and bathing in their blood, he has a stronger body that betrays his age and is able to take hits that a normal human would not be capable of though not even comparable to someone who bathed in true dragon blood. His body had been bathed in their blood so much that it can be further enhanced by infusing the mystery of dragons in his own body to draw out the power of the dragons to enhance Kaden's body and give him abilities associated with them, such as flight and of course, Dragons Breath should he enhance himself fully.
Such power comes at a great cost; each use causes his own body to break down and warp his mind. In his younger years it would've been easier to use it, but age has caught up to him and the drawbacks are far more prevalent.
Devouring Circle-:The dragons form a circle by devouring each other by the tail to merge with one another into some vore human centipede looking thing. It can be used by Kaden to create a magic circle or a boundary field.
General Mage Craft: Given his status as a professor at the Clock Tower and an alumni, he has the ability to use mage craft that should be considered standard, such as standard Alchemy, floating, repairing mundane objects, Familiar Creation, Bounded Fields, Sympathetic Mage Craft, Contagion Mage Craft, Suggestion, Reinforcement, and Structural Analysis.

ᴍʏꜱᴛɪᴄ CᴏᴅᴇDragon Bone Sword: Passed down from each generation of his family that is proof that they had anything worth while, it is a genuine sword made made from the bones of a blue dragon and is the weapon Kaden used to kill his own creations. Impossibly sharp and durable it is a weapon when charged with mana, it can discharge electricity for destructive attacks that have a moderately heavy drain on the user.
Cigars: Stores mana for later and absorbs said mana when he smokes one.
Formal Suit: A gentleman is never complete without a suit. Every bit of it had been enchanted for resistance towards both physical based attacks and magic.
Pseudo-Dragons- While there are many dragons he has for various reasons, these are the ones that he brought with him for the war.
Ignis: The one of the largest of Kaden's creations with the comparable size of a pickup truck, Ignis is a fire pseudo-dragon of great physical strength and hard scales as well as an impressive wingspan allowing it for flight.
Sylph: Rather than a single dragon, it is more like Kaden has a flock of them. They are black dragons the size of pigeons and while they are weak, they are fast and great for surveying environments and sending messages. They can shoot acid though so they have that going for them.
Neptune: The second largest of his creations, Neptune is a serpentine dragon capable of sinking moderately sized ships and uses its affinity of water to manipulate its element for powerful attacks.
Terra: Not a traditional dragon at the very least, Terra is a wingless dragon with an earth affinity capable of digging into the earth below and can manipulate it to cause localized tremors and earth based attacks. Of all the dragons, it has the hardest scales of any of his creations.
Cirrus: The largest of all his creations and his strongest, a blue dragon the size of a tractor trailer that is the closest thing that Kaden has ever made to a true dragon. While not comparable in power to a true dragon, it surpasses anything that Kaden has created and could be said to be his greatest creation yet, except for one problem; it is the hardest to contain and the hardest to control.
