Background:
Tairan Avel grew up poor on the streets of Ardis. His inquisitive mind made a map of the city, including many things which never made it onto maps. So he scratched out a living as a guide for tourists and adventurers. It was not until he met Petros Lorrimor that he ever thought his world would encompass anything except the crumbling city of Ardis. The professor recognized Tairan's natural aptitude and encouraged him to apply to the Sincomakti School of Sciences in Rozenport. Petros agreed to write him a letter of recommendation and underwrite his education in exchange for services to be named later.

Tairan's years of study at the school yielded excellent results, as he proved to be a natural scholar. An unexpected result was the awakening of Tairan's mind to a strange new field of magic, which he has only begun to understand. He suspects that what he has dubbed 'psychic magic' is not new, but instead very old and nearly forgotten. Unfortunately further research will need to wait until he can answer the summons of Kendra Lorrimor and pay his respects to the man who changed his life.
