About Kostinantio Vishkibackground:
- Kostinantio Vishki was born in Magnimar, his family background a bit of a mess: - His mother, Maryenka Vishki was a pretty, free spirited Varisian (ethnic), that had a passionate relationship with Marcello Drovenge, a wealthy Magnimarian merchant of almost pure Chelish stock, whenever her clan was in Magnimar, especially during the long wintercamp. While MArcello was quite enarmored with Maryenka, she at least took their relationship to be less then exclusive (with her spending most of the year on the road anyway). Thus, one Winter, she gave birth to a half elven boy while in Magnimar. - Marcello and Maryenka had an ugly argument that wasn't resoved when spring came and she left with her clan. But, whether because she knew a half elven child would have a hard time being accepted into a very traditional Varisian clan, or because she knew something else (she had the skills of a harrower and might have foreseen whatever doom was to come over her clan, as her caravan was never again to be seen in any settlement along the road), she left the boy at Marcellos door. - Marcello was a man with a good heart and he could bring himself to abandoning the child of the woman he loved, even if it was clarly not his own. He took Kostinantio into his house, where he was raised by servants and teachers, as usual in Chelish tradition. MArcello cared for him as he would have cared for his own child and took care of his education and welfare, though not of his socialization as to avoid any unseemly implications. - Among othe gifts from the gods, Kostinantio displayed a great talent for the arcane. When his talent proved to be strong enough to be accepted at the Stone of Seers, Marcello, himself a dabbler in the arcane, was as proud as any father could have been. - Unfortunatly, the carefree nature he had inherited from his mother along with the blessings of his life that made his living to this point sometimes to easy, had left him more or less devoid of ambition and focus. While his skills had him master the demands of his school with ease, his personality made him fail the stricter personal standarts, and after a year or so of trying to deal with him, his teachers asked him to leave. - carefree or not, this was a blow to the young man. Seriously failing was new to him and despite his ambigious personality, the pride of his foster father was important to him and he was enjoying his growing magical powers. He decided, he would better not even talk to his foster father as he didn't want to see for himself the depth of the dissappointment he must have caused, so he slipped out of the academy the evening after he learned of his dismissal. - Since this day he wanders the lowlands of Varisia, endulging in some carefree curiosity, learning about the land and its ways. He travells as a Varisian, as he believes the road will be kinder to its own people, wearing a bandana to cover his most obvious elven trait. Often resting in the camps of various Varisian Clans, he endowed himself with a variety of traditional tattoos, clothing and even a kapernia. He guises his wizardly skills in the mantle of Varisian sorcery (as he has the charms of a typical sorcerer as well as the ability to burn raw magical power instead of fiddly stuff most wizards use for their spells, that is pretty easy for him) to avoid questions about his schooling Personality:
- Kostinantios is a carefree, bright young man, curious to a fault, but feeble in his attentions. He has the good heart of his father and tries to 'do the right thing', but lacks the strength of devotion that might make him a real 'force of good' - Kostinantios biggest fault is still his lack of focus. While he is bright enough that, given interest and work, he could probably gain insight into most matters, far beyond what most savants could, he simply lacks the interest to look into the depth of any matter - why should he risk spending significant time to something only to find out there is nothing of interest when there is still so much he doesn't know at all? - Still, the road makes a man grow up fast, and perhaps the day is nigh for him to find something that holds his interests. - The one thing in his 'Varisian Traveller' guise that is true is his believe in Desna. While he didn't know much about the godess when he left Magnimar, he found her nature as a hedonistic traveller, a caring protector of the roads and a fierce warrior in the battle against her enemies if needed, to be a place to put his heart and soul.

As a standard action, you can make a single attack using a melee weapon at a range of 30 feet.
