Background
Irrasmus was born and raised on the northern border of Sanos Forest in eastern Varisia. His village was a modest place, but constantly threatened by giants and other such creatures coming out of the mountains to the north. The villagers were toughened to these attacks, and some would even lead retaliatory attacks.

Everyone was expected to assist, even if they did not fight, in the defense of the village. Irrasmus, though raised in a tough environment, was not as strong as the rest of the men and relied on his wits and magical talent. He was passionate about history, and particularly so about the ancient kingdom of Thassilon. He was apprenticed to the local magician, and found he had a penchant for Transmutation magic. This proved to be very valuable to the people of the village, particularly the warriors, and he was brought along as a strategist and to bolster the warriors with his magic. Eventually the giants and other monsters were driven back even farther north into the mountains. There was a time of peace, and Irrasmus decided to leave his home for Magnimar, to learn more of arcane magic.

Although he planned one day to return to his village, he never did. For over twenty years he has remained in Magnimar, eventually leaving his school to apply his magic to practical purposes and to pay for his upkeep. The job he took up, and for many years has maintained, is at the Golemworks in the Bridgeward District. He used the knowledge gained working with the magical stones of the Irespan to sell out his own stonemasonry services, infusing his structures with his magic. He also used his spells to entertain and enthrall patrons at the various locales in Lowcleft, a favorite district of his.

Years passed quietly and without much event, although the rumors of giants stirring gave him great unease. One day, his services were called upon for the annual Swallowtail Festival in Sandpoint. Glad to take an opportunity to leave the city for a few days and to enjoy the celebration of some local townsfolk, Irrasmus accepted.

Appearance
Irrasmus is 5'10 and weighs 150 lbs. He has aged quicker than many, and has graying black hair and a matching scruff of a beard. He's lean and not the strongest, but by no means fragile. He is dressed crisply in a white shirt underneath a padded green vest, with tough but fine leather gloves covering his hands. His legs are clad in sturdy leather pants and boots. His sleeves are rolled up to just above his elbow, and he has a dark green cloak covering his pack. Two belt pouches hang at the sides of his belt, a dagger near the front, and a spell component pouch near the dagger.
