Alchemist. Naturalist. Magnificent painter of landscapes.
This aspiring Renaissance man from Sartorique is descended from Erogallian expats, and you'll hear him say more than once in reference to his talent that perfection is in his blood. Cornel Lazar is not as famous as he thinks he is. This is not to say that his skills should be discounted--the man is a wizard with chemistry, he knows his way in the wilderness, and his mind is a veritable catalogue of flora, fauna, and magical phenomena. He also is an avid painter of natural settings, but his ambition and sense of importance rather outweighs his true level of influence.
If you've heard of Cornel's reputation as a naturalist, you might be surprised at his weakness of body when you meet him in person. He certainly doesn't look very capable of overcoming any challenges of an athletic nature, but he has ways to compensate in a pinch.
Cornel has well-groomed brown hair and a short beard which surround deep-set but vibrant green eyes, high cheek bones, and an imposing hawk-like nose. His attire varies according to his activities from day to day, as he dresses appropriately for a wilderness trek, an afternoon of painting, or an evening at a polite social event.
