About Tesla Balkros, Don Luis

Several years ago Señor Tesla was packed off to boarding school by his step-father, Don Pela. The first year was rough, but over the course of a frustrating and humiliating year Tesla found himself able to spontaneously create and hurl small balls of lightening and frozen water over thirty yards, and suddenly it wasn't so rough.
.
The lectures were generally dull, but engaging in conversation with other kids from merchant houses was fascinating. The more that Tesla studied business practices, while at the same time developing his arcane abilities, the more convinced he became that with magical developments and innovation occurring frequently (including the death of a major god during the period of Tesla's enrollment), it would be both uninteresting and unprofitable to enter a stable career in transport or manufacture. Instead, Tesla determined that his future would be one that embraced change and sought to exploit changing circumstance.
.
His desire to leave his options open and be ready to leap at an opportunity led Tesla to study the ways of the First World closely, to continue to embrace and explore his latent elemental bloodline, and to immerse himself in the sect of Kalistrade. Tesla expects that as Golorion decreases its reliance on the gods there are many potential lessons to be learnt by examining the First World, and he also hopes to eventually find and work with emerging markets in the First World (for example, on Golarion the production of steel is easy – but with unworked iron being caustic to most fey there may be a market there; and by the same token the First World has expert agriculturalists that produce vastly more superior food than they could possibly consume).
.
Shortly after marrying Melania Blakros, Tesla's business began to thrive. In addition to the value of the Blakros name, Tesla developed a technique to masterwork weapons with one hour of skilled labor and no material cost, allowing him to bring in a regular profit of more than 5000 gold each 35-hour work-week, without the risks of adventuring.
