The professor wears dark robes and round dirty glasses. He has a pile of books in hands and a grey rabbit looks bored on his shoulder, munching what looks like the cover of a book. Augustus looks pretty ill, as his flesh is white, probably because of the lack of sunlight.
Social behavior:
Augustus Tournesol isn't clearly used to social interactions. If he is a teacher, he's a much better scholar. Aside from the research, he likes to craft items of his own and experiment on new ways to improve the abilities.
Background:
Augustus was born in Oppara, Taldor, and began at an early age to learn in its university. He soon discovered he had an particular interest for studying Arcana. After deciding to enter the student's club of "Arcane Mysteries", he founded two years after the "Time and Space" student's club as a postgraduate, along with five friends of his.
When he began his PHD, a professor giving lectures in Oppara, professor Lorrimor, noticed the talent in the young man. Augustus could invite the experienced professor to some of the club's gatherings. He also had the opportunity to debate about the Void element and its discovery as a new scientific and arcane matter.
After this meeting that changed Augustus' life, the two men kept an epistolary relationship. When he finished his PHP, Augustus looked for a place of work in Ustalav to be as near as possible of the professor and found it in Lepidstadt, where he teaches arcana, linguistics and spellcraft. To be true, the now professor Augustus Tournesol was also very interested by the dusty libraries and secret artifacts of Ustalav.
His reputation as scholar was growing when he heard word of the professor's death. Since then, he locked himself in his library, unable to give lectures anymore.
