BACKGROUND
Axton Vendian is the son of two competing glassblowers who both have businesses in Magnimar. The fact that his parents fell in love and married only enhanced their competitiveness, driving both his mother and father to new heights of skill in their profession. Any hopes of Axton following in their footsteps were dashed, however, when Axton reached puberty, and a beautiful, magnificent Varisian mustache appeared fully formed on his upper lip. Both of his grandmothers proclaimed the mustache as a sign of their families' magical heritages coming to the fore in young Axton. While the young man did not share his parents' passion for glassblowing, their desire to excel and their passion for taking their talent to its furthest limits was quickly evident in the burgeoning sorcerer.
Axton's exploration of his bloodline's magic and his research into his heritage both have led him to the ancient empire of Thassilon. Together with the rat Intrepid, his emotional support animal, Axton has joined the Pathfinder Society, hoping to use the organization's resources to explore Varisia's past and unlock his own magical potential.
While adventuring with other members of the Pathfinder Society in search of one of the Sihedron Shards, Axton merged consciousness with a simulacrum of Magilast, an undead Bonesage from the planet Eox. Magilast's skills and experiences changed Axton from a sorcerer to an arcanist, and perhaps even changed his perspectives and motivations as well.
Thankfully, Axton's mustache was unharmed as a result of the merging.
Description: It's hard to notice what Axton looks like beyond his magnificent mustache, but vague recollections remain of a handsome man with dark hair and friendly eyes.
