Background: Nathaniel had a pleasant childhood. He was the only child of rich parents, and they gave him whatever he wanted. What he wanted was knowledge. He went from subject to subject, learning enough to be considered learned before moving to the next. Truly, he became a Scholar of All Trades (and, by extension, a master of none.)
Aspect: Price Is No Barrier To Knowledge
Rising Action: In his junior year of college, Nathanial found an arcane tome in the TML and knew he had to read it. A homeless man warned him not to, but he didn't listen. After all, how bad could the book be?
He should have listened. The book pried open his third eye and made him stare into the abyss outside the universe, where he Saw The Watcher Beyond Sight. His mind snapped like a dry twig. Two weeks later, his landlord found him in his apartment, bleeding out from the arcane runes he carved into his arm in a failed ritual attempt. This lead to a quick trip to a padded cell, and five years later he has been deemed sane enough to return to normal society.
Aspect: Saw The Walker Beyond Sight
First Story: The Baying Of The Hounds
When a bizarre series of crimes are committed around the Library, Nathaniel can't help but get involved. But can he survive when the warlock behind it gets tired of his meddling?
Aspect: Overprepared For The Apocalypse
-Torolf:After being clued in by a fellow scholar that someone was using summoned creatures to commit bizarre crimes, Conan used his scrying skills to find the ritual site while Nathaniel then flooded it with water, disrupting the summons and allowing the Mounties to catch their man
Guest Star 1(Torolf): Chinese Winter Torture
When Conan didn't show up at the library, Nathanial was worried. When he didn't answer his phone, he decided to find out what happened the mystic way. A few rituals later, he found out Conan was being held in Chinatown. A few rituals more, and he was ready to break him out...
Aspect: Only Rivals In The Library
Guest Star 2(diveinshadow): My Father's Hammer
It was a simple plan, really. Head into the Never-Never, confirm a few theories, then get back out. He wasn't going to stop his investigations just because a man was in a fistfight with an ogre. After all, it's better for everyone if he stayed out of this sort of thing. But when he finished his work and passed that clearing again, the man was still breathing and the ogre was out cold. Since there was no way he was going to leave a man to die out here, Nathanial helped drag him back to a hospital.
Aspect: Survival Is A Virtue
