Olron

[Psi]

(Pretty much like Rastlin from Dragonlance >.<, but I created Olron before reading Dragonlance )

Name: Olron

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Race: Qualonian (after ‘the fall’ to ‘second coming’)

Alignment: Chaotic neutral

Power Level: Middle-tier High (8)

Appearance: His current body has brown hair and brown eyes though he has altered the hair color to be naturally black. He is of normal height and stature for most adult males. No facial hair and is deemed normal looking.

Personality: Carefree and easy going. Nothing about life seems to bother him except talk of gods.

History: Helping with the end of ‘Turbulent Times’, he was the main reason for the downfall of the goddess of night and darkness, causing her to curse him. For his excruciatingly devious and evil deeds committed throughout life, no god will take him into their domain after his original death (and have completly fogotten about him), and the goddess of darkness shut him out of the gates of oblivion (she already knew the pain it would later cause him), due to his betrayal to her. Left with nowhere to go his soul was reincarnated into another body.

At each death, he stands before his goddesses gates and asks for entry (except the first few times). After the first few times he began to dabble more and more into the art of magic and came to learn that when coming of age in his new life he began to remember all that he learned in previous ones, thus allowing him to keep the knowledge of his spells as he came back over and over again. During his last incarnation, he met Zionix who he is now happily married. He currently has two daughters (ashal and Carrie) and has met the twins who Zionix claims as her own.

Powers: Extreme mastery of spells and some hand-to-hand combat (enough to keep enemies at bay). His magic includes basic, intermediate, advanced, arcane, forbidden, elemental, enchanting, transporting and manipulation, and alteration. Some spells can be activated with a word, while others need phrases and sentences to activate them. A few need components.

Equipment:
-An exquisite robe embroidered with golden thread and silver runes. The robe itself is magically protected to lessen the blow of physical attacks. It is naturally white but changes colors depending on its wearer’s will. There are several hidden pockets where components and other items can be hidden.
- He also carries an olden oak staff that is enchanted to explode on its owners command (a big explosion that is a last resort). It can heal minor wounds once per day, and allows him to see invisible or hidden objects while holding it.
-His shoes are soft slippers that are hidden under his robe and are enchanted to allow him to levitate whenever and provided friction on surfaces where there are none.
-Lastly, his gloves are made of a soft fabric that allows his fingers to quickly cast spells that needs gestures.

Weakness: Those who can get close to him (with knowledge of hand-to-hand or at least advanced-intermediate weapon combat) can take him. The problem is getting through his magic.

{Explanation of types of magic}

Basic – Basic magic first learned. This magic is similar to creating a draft of wind and learning a simple invisibility spell.

Intermediate – These spells are the spells most used by wizards and other magic-users. These are similar to fireballs and ice strikes.

Advanced – These spells are the most advanced and are the category that meteor storms and blizzard rain are in.

Synergy – These spells are mostly healing, strengthening, and weakening.

Forbidden – These spells are spells that have drastic effects and sometimes-drastic consequences. They are mostly known for transferring and stealing souls and bringing holy and demonic being to the current plane/world. Sometimes they also include spells that give extraordinary skill yet drain something else.

Elemental – Spells that deal mainly with the elements.

Enchanting – Imbuing regular objects with special/magical skills and effects.

Transporting – Teleportation and such.

Manipulation – Controlling lesser monsters and sometimes demons.

Alteration – Changing the natural state or physical property of something. Some times it can change the chemical properties of an object.

Actually, Arcane is a very general term that refers to all sorts of sorcery and magecraft, as it is a reference to requiring the secret or little-known knowledge of spells and runes that mages use.

I really don't see anything here that would make him high-tier high. Casting times for the spells that put him in at a high power level also would be inanely long, so that most high-level characters, specifically those who are fast, would overrun him before he could cast. If he had support that could hold them off, it'd be different, so I'd put him at an 8, Mid-tier High, but not a 9.

[Psi]

He has protection spells to hold off enimies like a barrier around him that will reflect most kinds of magic or even elimanate them completly and casting times are generally a secon dor two. Few of his spells require chants or sentences or even long gestures. I'll change it to eight thoough.

And I used arcane because that's what I thought t meant and what it was XD, but if you can give me a better word for my discreption, ill change arcane to soemthing.

[Subtle]

If hes biased on Dragonlance, or draws from it at all, all his spells would be arcane and he wouldn't have access to healing

[Ninmast]

The characters that will be a threat to him won't be using magic. They'll be using fists, and that's if he's lucky. Also, I would expect a massive attack like a meteor shower that could lay waste to entire cities (yes, plural) to take more than two seconds to throw out. There has to be time to react.

A better word for magic that draws from light and goodness would be holy, but that's a very odd type of magic for a mage shunned from the gods to have, so I really don't see why he would have it at all. Personally, I would take out the "drawn from light and goodness" and just call the magic Synergy.

[Psi]

Subtle : He just reminds me of Raistlin (how I don't know) from dragonlance. He was created long before I started to read dragonlance and forgotten realms and any other fantasy type books. In fact he was one of/ maybe the first character I ever created by myself. I fought master Zero with him , and lost severely. . .

Ninmast : I'll change it to Synergy.

He has protection spells and he can fight hand-to-hand and with his staff. His robe nulls physical blows and he is very light on his feet. He is one of those characters that you have to take out quickly or you won't be able to get him down easily.

About his magic casting, meteor, even being advanced, would not lay waste to an entire city, nor one block. He would have no need to do that, thus the time is considerable shorter, plus he won't cast if he knows that his opponent will be able to stop him before he casts it. Plus he will only cast that if his opponent is permanently immobilized, because he cannot steer the meteor's course.

There are limits that I will apply when fighting with him, but you know my character will be fighting for his life in some situations maybe for other's lives and will use all of his power to stay alive (so he doesn't have to go through 16 years all over again just to remember and so on. . .

[Ninmast]

Ah, okay, so it's like Cassandra. It's not a real meteor, just a large, flaming rock?

And actually, you said his robe lessens physical blows, not that it nulls them. Null would stop them from dealing damage absolutely and completely.

Not a real meteor?! Haven't you -ever- played a final fantasy game?

[Ninmast]

Yes, I have, and some of them are very real meteors, but in real life, buildings aren't impervious to the rigors of combat just because the battles fade out to a static generic background.

[Psi]

Yes, giant flaming rock.
