This is the alias for Browman's Incanter.
Still sorting out traits, languages and gear but the rest should be done. Is there a list of languages to pick from? I know 6 other than common.
Septimus prefers to dress in scholars robes and when traveling uses a spear as a walking stick and has a small backpack with essential gear including of course a notebook. There is a belt with a few pouches containing coins and snacks. Thinking is a hungry job, and Septimus is always thinking.
Septimus is slightly shorter than average with a thin but tough build. He has thin black hair that is naturally slightly curly. He is in his early twenties, but his hairline is already receding.
Septimus is smart, really smart and always thinking. But he isn't a very wise or charismatic man. Most of his knowledge comes from books and speaking to wise old scholars, his lack of "street smarts" often impacts the practicality of his ideas. He is a friendly man but not very good at talking to people and when he does he tends to ramble about something he has learned.
He is from a merchant family of Sal-port that had enough money to get by comfortably, but not of the upper class. He is good with sums, and would have greatly improved his family's business if he had joined it. But he was accepted into a center of learning instead; there he learned much both mundane and magical and has at least a passing knowledge of most academic subjects. Recently having completed his studies it was recommended to him that he spend some time away from the sheltered life of study and learn how the modern world works in practice instead of in books.
I am interested in having the party do a mix of things, not tied to one type of encounter.
A roleplay sample will be up later.
RP sample
A rather small man in his mid-twenties, who already has a receding hairline and is wearing scholars robes enters. The robes are old but in good condition; he also has a backpack on his back.
After the barkeep talks to him he sits down and pulls a notebook out of his backpack.
"Is this place always this busy? It seems like it would be more profitable if you were serving these people alcohol. I could do some numbers for you" As he starting writing in his notebook. "Perhaps in exchange for some lunch? I seem to always be hungry."
While waiting for an answer, Septimus continues taking notes in his book.
