Current revision

   A talented master of the Ordo Purus Magicus, he has spent the better part
of his life studying the thaumic arts to an incredible degree.  After reaching
old age, he has stepped away from his research and now spends the rest of his
days looking for students to continue his legacy.  His tan skin is wrinkled
with age, contrasting his luscious, long blonde hair which lies pulled back
neatly.  His hands have jagged white scars and burn marks running through
them, but his most striking feature is his green eyes - ones which have seen
many of the secrets of this world.  An array of threads flickers in and out of
existence in a rhythmic cycle around him.  
   He looks about sixteen dimins tall, four and nineteen twentieths dimins
wide, and one and a quarter dimins front to back.  
   He is in good shape.  
   He is meditating.  
   He wears a shimmering gossamer robe around his body.
