About "Book Wyrm"

A savant in all forms of things metaphysical, Olli studies everything, from philosophy to wagon repair. Standing at 5'8" and unkempt, Book Wyrm never made too many friends, but never had too many enemies either. Keeping to his books, most call him "Book Wyrm" because of his knowledge attained from his studies. He always had his friend, Jack the raven, who he taught, through his study of magic, the language of Celestial.

Personality:
Patient to a fault. Often choosing to not act and let the natural flow of thing to happen. Loses out on opportunities or friendships. He often quotes something he has read, but not site the source. He assumes that everyone understands that all statements are either opinion or from what someone has learned and could always learn more; what he says comes off as pretentious, and thinks he knows everything, because he never says, "I think" before a statement.

Being so young, he has found himself very in love. He met Hiara, an elf who works at his library, recently and they have been dating and he has had a hard time focusing on other things. It doesn't slow down his thirst for knowledge, however, as he seeks the oldest secrets of magic.

Background:
Son to powerful Wizards. Olli was forced into school, while being left at home with a Brownie to supervise him. Showed great promise in testing of magical aptitude, he did not agree with the limited practices of the schools that offered scholarships. School proved to be a slow development and was expelled to the disappointment of his parents, because he would sneak around and fiddle with locked up magic items. So he went on to teach himself, through rigorous studying habits. Including, but not limited to, seclusion, fasting and meditation, prayer, testing, and constant reading. Becoming one of the youngest wizards, without disclosing such, he reached out in all magic. Taking a fascination in divine magic, as well, he stretched his mind into the realm of all schools of knowledge, physical and metaphysical.

The Call:
Olli fasted and meditated for one moon's cycle. At the end of it, he had a vision. He saw Irori, sitting in front of him, eyes closed, meditating. Olli closed his mind's eye again and only heard the celestial voice of Irori. "You have diligently prepared your mind and body for truth. With respect to others and their desires, this way of life is under threat. You will be my servant. Empty your cup once more and it will be filled again. Remember, in war, every victory is a funeral." Olli Lahti emerged from his trance. "I will accept order; that is how perfection will be accomplished. Irori will help me get there by putting me through these trials in his honor."
