Star Chaser (Lúrëandilúnon in Elvish), the Kyanite Sage (Gem Info)

A friend is simply an enemy who has not revealed himself:

Name: Star Chaser (Lúrëandilúnon in Elvish), the Kyanite Sage (Gem Info)
Alignment: Neutral Good
Race: Snowborn Half-Elf
Class: Ancient Lorekeeper (Lunar) Oracle 11
Description: Star Chaser is a snowborn half-elf who was raised in the human town of Aaminiut near the Crown of the World. His hair is white and eyes a luminescent icy blue. Always with him is the white wolf named "Elvanna" in memory of a tragic figure from his travels before joining the ranks of the Jeweled Sages. He wears celestial armor beneath his dark blue traveling clothes and carries a quarterstaff bearing entwined black-and-white symbols of Nethys upon it.

Emily Savage, the Aquamarine Sage:

NameEmily "Screwloose" Savage
Alignment: Neutral Good
Race: Undine
Class: Cleric (Herald Caller) 10
Description: Emily is a female Undine born in an underwater village near the coast of Magnimar. She had always been a strange one, but one day when exploring near the coast she came upon a strange scene: an old human male, seemingly conversing with several birds. When the conversation seemed over, she saw something astonishing; the birds flew off, and so did the old man! She was baffled, and the only conclusion she could make was that the birds had shared the secret of flying.

Obsessed with this newfound knowledge, Emily set out on an adventure. While she had no success whatsoever with interrogating birds, she did come across a glorious religion in Magnimar: Ylimancha, the Harbor Wing. This deity granted it's devout followers the power of flight, and Emily considered herself one step closer her newfound dream.

Now dressed in a white nun outfit with golden accents and riding a Giant Chameleon named Wingnut, Emily travels the world. She spreads the word of Ylimancha, telling everyone that all are capable of flight if they are truly faithful. And although she may not seem to be completely sane, the fact she can summon flying animals that aren't supposed to be able to fly, might mean she's actually on to something here.

Sirrug:
Name: Sirrug
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Race: Human
Class: Kineticist 10
Description: Sirrug never relied much on weaponry, but he does enjoy his toys and trinkets. Growing up as a Garundi with bright red hair meant he stood out and was often accused of being half-Ulfen and not a true child of sands. Since he picked up a trinket that lets him easily don illusions, the odds of meeting Sirrug in his natural form have dropped significantly. However, when you do, that usually means his travelling companion (a young lap-dragon* who flies off whenever anything scary happens) has gotten into his pack and is badly pretending to be a cat.

Though he had seemed destined for a life of petty robbery, that changed very quickly and dramatically one night. The details are a mess, he barely remembers much of it himself, but the three thugs (from some Avistani place or other) died from a mix of suffocation and burns while Sirrug stumbled his way back to a safehouse only to find a letter addressed to him requesting his assistance and promising passage to Absalom.

From then, his tale has covered a variety of strange outings, quite significantly including a time-sculpting ritual that Sirrug later participated in preparing. Just in case, Sirrug decided to start a caravan company based on some of his oldest memories.

As his outings grew stranger, his innate power has grown to more echo the legends and deeds of Osirus, while his form has gradually shown more traits of a probably draconic heritage. As much as loves bragging that he is a descendant of Apsu and Osirus, he will admit that he's fairly sure the overwhelming majority of Garundi (among all the races of the continent) are probably descended of Osirus's court in one way or another and that dragons seem to frolic with other races fairly often.

Most recently, he has acquired quite an interesting item. An ancient necklace, but with a newly enchanted chrysocolla** replacing the old centerpiece. A mix of magicks, old and new or long known and recently remembered, whichever the case, something rare and significant.

*slightly more polite term than 'fake dragon'
**carved to resemble two folded wings

Shiney...

Ogden:

Spoiler:
Name: Ogden the pyrite sage
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Race: dwarf
Class: Monk (Zen Archer)
Description: Ogden is a bald Osiriani dwarf with a splendidly groomed grey beard. Most of the time he can be seen with his archeological tools he ueses for excavations. With his vast breath of experience he dabbles in all fields of knowledge but his speciality is the osirian history and their engeneering techniques.

He started out as a member of the osirion Faction but was present during the evennts in sanctum of the sages that lead to tahonikepsu becoming the leader of the new scarab sages (with his support). He followed the path of the sages closely and used the first opportunity that was presented to join their ranks.

Almandine Sage Sinta:

Name: Sinta
Alignment: True Neutral
Race: Wayang
Class: Kineticist 10
Description: Sinta joined the Pathfinder Society to get new inspirations from around the world for her true passion, sculpting. Her skills in the subject were greatly increased because adventuring honed her telekinetic skills, allowing her to sculpt marble with her mind. The leftover pointly, sharp, and round marble pieces from her sculpting were also useful as ammunition whenever she had to defend herself and her team.
Her discreet abilities also allowed her to shine when she was introduced to the Scarab Sages, and helped many members to transport and liberate relics from less scrupulous holders.

Rahn du Lac, The Blightburn Sage

spoiler:

'

Name: Rahn du Lac
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Race: Elf
Class: Hexcrafter Magus 8

Description:Standing 6'0" with a shaven head, Rahn bears little resemblance to the elf he once was. His sand coloured eyes are dark from the loss of his wife. He looks every bit the travelled pathfinder, armor from Tian Xia, weapons of the Inner Sea and several ioun stones implanted in the pale flesh of his left arm.

Background: Rahn is not a young elf; he hasn’t been a young elf since well before he was a Pathfinder. Since the day he met that andoran girl he has felt more alive than he ever did in Kyonin. While her flame did not last as long as most humans, indeed it did not last even long enough to meet their child, their half elven son breathes fire into his veins every day.

They resided in Erages for a time, but with his son’s burgeoning occult powers he knew the life of a fisherman would not content him. Relocating to Absalom was both wondrous and tumultuous, and much faster than the life Rahn was accustomed to in Kyonin, through keeping stride with his son he quickened his perspective and began to feel as though he lived more in a day in Absalom than he did in a month in his homeland.

Seeking greater adventure his son joined the Pathinder Society, and loathe to be parted from another of his family so soon again he followed. Training together in the Grand Lodge for those three years is a memory he will never forget. Letting his son, by now a man grown, adventure on his own left Rahn to spend much of his time investigating Ancient Osirion after recovering a sage jewel from some usij early in his career. The rediscovery of the Sage’s Sanctum, the trials in Tar Kuata, taking a Div (of all things!) as a familiar, a surprisingly civil conversation with a lich and the salvation of an order led Rahn to find another purpose in his life: The Order of Jewelled Sages.

Crafting his jewel of Blightburn was perhaps the second most impulsive choice of Rahn’s life. On the one hand it radiates an invisible poison, on the other it is known that jewels preserve their bearers. Whether his choice becomes an exemplary experiment or a final joke, he will let the next Blightburn Sage decide.

Justin Norvegicus, The Mica sage

Name: Justin norvegicus
Alignment: Lawful Neutral (getting better though)
Race: Ratfolk
Class: Transmuter (Brown furred) 9

Spoiler:

Description Standing at a whopping 3 feet tall if you count the ears (which he insists do in fact count) Justin is covered in a large fluffy coat of white fur that hides more than a little fluff underneath. Large red eyes peer at through even larger gold rimmed glasses, which he adjusts with the tiny pink hand not busy holding a precious book. His clothing appears to have been assembled at random out of whatever was in the lost and found at a not especially prodigious school.

When he was given a statue of himself, he insisted that it be as tall as everyone elses. The extra space is a podium depicting the story of the sages in a dry, boring, but accurate report on three sides. On the fourth is a copy of comprehend languages, so future academics can always have access to a useful learning tool.

Saarek Badur, the Cinnabar Sage

Spoiler::

Name: Saarek Alatami Tayyuda Badur
Alignment: LN
Race: Human
Class: Occultist 11
Description: A large Garundi man, appearing even larger in his breastplate and dark blue robes, Saarek can be withdrawn to the point of rudeness, and is far more comfortable with books and old ruins than people. Still, the society of the other scholars in the Scarab Sages has been the great joy in his life, and crafting his own Sage Jewel to take his place alongside Tahonikepsu and Amenopheus is a source of immense pride.

Saarek is a historian by inclination and a warrior by necessity. As he grows toward middle-age, Saarek shows no sign of slowing down, as long as there is lost lore to rediscover.

Whew, this took some doing but very happy to have accomplished it, with .5 xp to go before I hit Seeker.

Quenly, the Jacinth Sage:
Name: Quenly
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Race: Elf
Class: Oracle (Ancient Lorekeeper) 11; Dark Tapestry mystery
Description: Quenly is a beautiful yet silent elf. Originally from Kyonin, he now spends most of his time in Osirion and neighbouring countries (the territories of Ancient Osirion). He wears traditional Osirion-style desert robes, but is almost always shrouded in shadows.

Quenly is usually accompanied by a tiny ebony dragon, no bigger than a housecat.

There is likely no greater authority on the elves of ancient Osirion than Quenly, the new Jacinth Sage.

With his new Sage Jewel, Quenly's Knowledge (History) pertaining to Osirion elves will be +33, or +43 using Page-Bound Epiphany.

Quenly was once a young elven warrior. He excelled at swordplay and archery, but was prideful and vain. When he began hearing voices in his head, Quenly quickly came to believe that this was the gods speaking directly to him. He could not understand what they were saying, but it was clear that they were not the gods commonly worshipped in Kyonin. Who were they?

Quenly decided that they must be the ancient and true gods of his people, who had chosen him because of his special elven virtues. The voices became louder and clearer, and Quenly began to understand them. The gods taught him secrets, and Quenly began to manifest a peculiar form of magic: divine in nature, but blended with a touch of the arcane. He called it "pure" magic, and claimed it derived from his essence as an elf.

When Quenly announced to his fellows that he had been chosen by the gods, they were sceptical. But his nascent powers were real. Only a Kyonin elder could explain. Quenly had indeed been chosen. Whilst none would say if his gods were true, he had begun the journey of the Ancient Lorekeepers. By the time that Quenly left Kyonin to collect and preserve elven histories from around the world the voices of the gods had become so loud that he could no longer hear anything else; but they continued to reveal their secrets to him.

Quenly joined the Pathfinders to facilitate travel and enable contact with elven societies across Golarion. He originally saw himself as a warrior for Good, but when he encountered Tahonikepsu at the Sanctum of the Sages he found a new purpose.

With the knowledge that he has since gained, Quenly believes that the true gods of his people are responsible for the ascendance of Ancient Osirion and that is why they brought him to the Jewelled Sages. Now, he wants to understand what role the elves of ancient Osirion played in that ascendance, for surely they were also the chosen of the true gods.

Jacinth gem info. In the old AD&D Dungeon Masters' Guide, the mystical properties of Jacinth are reported as "luck [when] traveling, protection from fire, wards off plague." So it seemed very apt!

Name: Yuri "The Jasper Sage" Moswen

Spoiler:

Alignment: Neutral
Race: Ratfolk
Class: Alchemist (Mindchemist) 8
Description: Yuri is an albino ratfolk, though due to an "accident" involving some goblins and a tub of goo, he tends to change colors when pressure is applied to his body. He is dressed in light cotton harm pants and a light cotton shirt with a built in hood to keep the sand out of his ears, and goggles. On his chest, over his heart is pinned a Wayfinder with the Scarab Sages insignia on it. Due to his darkvision, and natural sense of direction he doesn't use it for its intended purpose much, but rather it is a symbol of his pride for him.

Being weak, even for a ratfolk, he spent much of his time growing up in Ipeq with his whiskers buried in a book. Soon he was reading ancient books on Osirian history, alchemy, and any other topics he could get his claws on. As a result he was recruited into the Pathfinder Society by the Scarab Sages, soon joining a small group of adventurers and applying is knowledge in the field.

I would like to extend a special thanks to Thea Peters for the Ratfolk Boon used to create this character.

The Exchange 5/5 *****

Name: Ammensura Ibn Jad, the Verdite Sage
Alignment: Neutral
Race: Human
Class: Shaman (Name-Keeper) 8
Description: Ammensura, Ammen to his friends, is a short young man, well dressed and scholastic. He grew up in the Sothis Lodge, his parents Pathfinders. A clever and curious child, he spent his days listening to their tales and learning in the libraries of the Lodge eventually becoming a society researcher. He loves stories and reading but never expected to go on adventures himself until an old battered wayfinder crossed his desk. When he handled it, it spoke to him, a fragment of the spirit of its lost owner had remained. It encouraged him to get out there, do field work, learn how its owner had died, inscribe his name of the Wall of Names and make sure no other Pathfinders suffered the same fate. That is exactly what he has done, travelling far and wide, helping, learning, teaching and never forgetting the lessons the spirt taught him.

Alignment: Neutral
Race: Gnome
Class: Bard 8/Investigator 1
Description: Pindoodly is a devout worshipper of Irori, especially Irori's knowledge aspect. He joined the Society because any such repository of knowledge must have a large quantity of recipes. He fell in with the Scarab Sages because as the oldest civilization must surely have the most recipes. He has been instrumental in recovering the sage jewels and finding candidates to bear them. Because of his deep knowledge of Osirion and his nature as a scholar he was granted membership in this exclusive order. He is looking forward to seeing what recipes are stored in his jewel's memories.

Name: Hien Hwan, the Star Gem Sage
Alignment: Neutral
Race: Kitsune
Class: Kineticist 8
Description: Hien Hwan is a brown-furred adolescent kitsune from Goka whose true form is of Tien-Hwan ancestry. His gruff demeanor and spiked leather clothing belie a sensitive young man who cares deeply for companions who've taken the effort to befriend him. Hien's affiliation with the Scarab Sages was originally one of convenience, for Amenopheus admitted Hien into the order as a boy out of curiosity for his telepathic powers after a Scarab Sages agent travelling from Goka to Jalmeray discovered the young telekinetic stowaway. The terrified child was cowering below decks, having just witnessed his father sacrifice himself so Hien could flee the local assassins guild, who had been hired to apprehend him by a group of mysterious occultic researchers from Shenen. Hien was trained in mixed martial arts and taught to control his powers before being offered to the Pathfinder Society for his confirmation.

Hien spent most of his time as a begrudging participant in the Pathfinder Society's exploits until a mission orchestrated by Amara Li had him return to his native Goka, placing him in direct conflict with the very assassins who attempted to apprehend him so long ago. After his Pathfinder Society allies helped him avenge his father's murder, Hien was left without purpose. While no scholar, he ultimately decided to devote himself to the Scarab Sages' ideals, both as thanks for their role in helping him get his revenge and out of a genuine desire to better his understanding of the world as well as his own, strange powers. After helping to create what would become his sage jewel, Hien's unique occultic powers transformed the gemstone into a kitsune star gem and caused him to sprout a second tail, resulting in his title, the Star Gem Sage. As a Scarab Sage, Hien is vehemently interested in occultic powers and anomalies, as well as the history of kitsune—especially historical figures who possessed multiple tails. In addition to the usual properties of a sage jewel, Hien's gem also functions as a kitsune star gem.

"I know things and shoot stuff, but mostly I know things." might serve as a self introduction. Previously "The Risen", and "The constant" he has served the quest for knowledge under the Scarab Sages since they raised him from the dead, swaying his allegiance from the Grand Lodge. Gerlach enjoys busting the myth that wizards aren't all that tough, and demonstrating the efficacy of touch spells.

Boubacar sometime has a solemn attitude when faced with undead and demonic foes, but easily dismisses this with a deep hearty laugh.

Race: Tiefling
Class: Occultist 1 / Magus 6
Description: Misunderstanding the nature of his origin, and duped by a trickster fiend, Sekheb's rural community revered him as a gift from Osirion's ancient gods. He understood that this was not the case at an early age and set out to discover the truth of his existence and the means to harness his magical skills, going so far as to enter and explore ancient ruins and tombs wholly unprepared for the potential dangers.

Venture Captain Rahotep of the Pathfinder Society rescued Sekheb from one such expedition, and recruited him to the Society as a protégé.

Unlike his mentor, Sekheb is calm, thoughtful and measured in his manners and prefers to resort to violence as a last resort.

Description: Rivahn is a slim Dwarf with studious brown eyes framed by dull black hair and a black beard that has been groomed impeccably. Unless formality is strictly necessary, he is festooned with all manner of pouches, satchels, haversacks and bandoliers to the point that his favorite adventuring clothes are peeking out between the straps.

He is an accomplished alchemist, talented scholar, and canny dungeon delver. He aspires to win the favor of the Society and, through them, travel the planes for profit and knowledge.

Name: Ebonephas, The Iolite Sage (Gemstone Properties)
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Race: Wayang
Class: Alchemist (Crypt Breaker) 8, Investigator (Psychic Detective) 1
Description: Unlike most of his people, Ebonephas has always been equaly curious and good-natured. Due to his upbringing near a valley full of Kobolds, he was fascinated by the pranks of his neighbours, as well as the traps they crafted. Dealing with those traps regularly, as well as his ability to operate well in the darkness brought him to the attention of another Cryptbreaker from the Pathfinder Society, and that human took him under his wing and introduced him into the Pathfinder Society.
While travelling for them from one tomb or dungeon to the next, with occasional trips to more well lit regions, he came into contact with the recently rediscovered Sage Jewels of the Scarab Sages.
Fascinated by the stories and knowledge contained in those, he made it his personal mission to find out everything he could. And so he set out to find more jewels. He met Tahonikepsu when rediscovering the Sanctum of the Sages, and although he voted to his friend Amenopheus to become leader of the newly evolving faction, he accepted her as leader and helped her gain access to the library of the sanctum. Over the following years, he met most of the other prominent members of the Scarab Sages, and so he was a natural fit when a team of Pathfinders had to be found to cleanse the jewels from an ancient evil burried within.
After succeeding at that milestone for his faction and himself, he was honored to use the flawed jewel he had once helped create in the Sanctum of the Sages to create an new Sage Jewel. Like himself, his jewel is of a grayish coloration, and is of a stone best known for revealing what is hard to see, and to find solutions that noone else would think of.
Still young, Ebonephas is eager to prove the other sages right for chosing him to become a member of their honored ranks, and has vowed to acquire as much knowledge as possible to fill his newly created jewel.

Name: Nimm
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Race: Vudrani Human
Class: Psychic 7 (Rebirth Discipline)
Description: The dutiful apprentice to the great scholar-wizard Imar of Katheer (Osirioni Human Wizard 12, PFS retired), Nimm stands an accomplished polymath in his own right. Now he finds the fathomless knowledge of his own past-life memories supplemented by those of others through a sage jewel, stepping closer to the superlative universal understanding that both he and his master have long sought after.

Liberty's Edge 4/5 5/5 * Venture-Agent, Texas—Dallas & Ft. Worth

Name: Atticus Kabel, the Tanzanite Sage
Alignment: True Neutral
Race: Human
Class: Spiritualist 7
Description: Atticus is a tall, lanky human with chiseled features. His dark brown hair and eyes offer contest to his lightly tanned skin. He typically dresses in a hooded, green cloak over his darkleaf cloth armor while adventuring with the companion in his head, a phantom of kindness named Siodhachan.
Atticus was not one to choose the adventuring life. However, the phenomenon of the phantom bonding to him changed that. Siodhachan was a Pathfinder who died in combat, though who in life was fascinated by ancient Osirion and was a member of their faction. Upon his death though, his spirit was pulled back to the Material Plane and found refuge in the mind of the young man. The two became fast friends as Atticus learned more about the world beyond Taldor where he lived.
Together, they struck out across Golarion and eventually found their way to the Pathfinders. Now they ventured on with the society and followed the shifting destiny that sands as the Osirion faction reformed as the Scarab Sages. They joined the new faction and have worked to rebuild the knowledge that was lost

Name: Mitsu, the Sunstone Sage
Alignment: Lawful Good
Race: Suli
Class: Iroran Paladin 12 (retired upon completion of Salvation)
Description:A tall, bald man who at first glance looks to be of Qadiran descent. He is typically only wearing leggings, sandals, and a fine-linked chainmail armor. He is mostly covered in tattoos, though they are only fully visible when he is not in armor. He carries a traveling pack with a sansetsukan tied to it. Almost always seen with a smile on his face, he will talk with anyone about anything, treating it as a new experience to learn from.

Name: Creon Daemonborn, the Obsidian Ibis
Alignment: True Neutral
Race: Tiefling (Though almost no one knows this)
Class: Witch 10

Description:
A six-foot figure covered from head to toe in black leather and linen, a heavily cowled cloak shadowing a plain black plague doctor's mask, long and curved like the beak of an ibis. His voice is harsh and rasping, with just a hint of Osiriani accent giving a clue to his origin. He appears to have a slight hunchback until a situation arises when he twitches back his cloak to reveal a pair of tattered black feathered wings. On the incredibly rare occasion that he removes a glove in the presence of another it reveals a hand covered in glossy black scales reminiscent of a bird's leg and tipped with blunt claws. He is acerbic to the point of alienating everyone he speaks to, considering anyone not of superhuman intelligence to be an "idiot" and beneath his notice. The only creature he seems to care for is his greensting scorpion familiar, Atropos, though he shows obvious respect and deference to Tahonikepsu, the Diamond Sage. One secret he keeps from all is that the deity he considers his patron is Charon, the Boatman, believing in his shriveled heart that the fate of all existence is to one day fall to the entropy of Time.

Name: Ernesto Seppatuuli, the Zircon Sage
Alignment: Neutral Good
Race: Sylph
Class: Magus 10
Description: This sylph is usually seen wearing a mithral breastplate emblazoned with a rainbow-tailed songbird or bright pink Tian dress robes. His glowing scimitar, forged from a mysterious jet-black metal, occasionally borrows his voice, often speaking more to the point than its long-winded (pun intended) bearer.

Ernesto is a celebrated chronicler of the Pathfinder Society, frequently completing missions related to elemental balance or extraplanar exploration in addition to his duties with the Scarab Sages. He spends his quieter days crafting exquisite musical instruments, a practice that creates at least as many problems as it solves when utilized during adventures. Wishing to set himself apart from the typical shocking-grasp-happy magus, Ernesto styles himself as a "mageknight" questing in the service of Shelyn; his blade companion appears to share such aims when it decides to speak.

Name: Romari Sycamore, the Fluorite Sage
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Race: Human
Class: Abjurer 11
Description: A typical garundian he grew up in Sothos to a large family of Carpenters who helped supported him in his studies of magic. Interest in the history of Osiria, knowledge in general and a love of using magic led him to join the Pathfinders. Romari's fashion sense has a lot to be desired even to clash with his gleaming white teeth although his trusty companion, Shae a greensting scorpion accompanies him at all times and does his best to make up for Romari's somewhat off putting manner.
Often the smartest man in the room he is an expert in many fields and embraces any opportunity to learn. He's never given up his roots and carries a selection of tools around to help fix doors broken by overzealous companions.

Name: Newton Kinos, the Adamantine Sage
Alignment: True neutral
Race: Human
Class: Aether Kineticist 11
Description:

Spoiler:
Newton is a plain, if somewhat shabby looking human male, tall and somewhat overweight, wearing simple robes over a chain shirt. He would be almost unassuming, nothing but a random bystander, if it weren't for his tendency to float everywhere he goes, never touching the ground.

Newton had inherited his powers on his quest for pure laziness, accepted a job as a pathfinder due to the sheer amount of downtime he gets, and over the course of his adventures has stumbled his way into the legendary order of the Jeweled Sages. Never being one for scholarly pursuits who still ended up in this position, it is fitting that his jewel is not actually such, but a jewel-shaped chunk of adamantine, polished to a mirror shine. As with most things he has done in his career as an adventurer, it seems to work against all odds.

Name: Watts Helm the Corundum Sage
Alignment: Neutral Good
Race: Tengu
Class: Investigator 9
Description: Watts Helm is a thin and lanky Tengu that finds himself buried in scroll tubes and journals alongside his alchemical equipment. His clothing is a patchwork of different outfits from different cultures as he customizes something to be most optimal for himself. While he relishes the idea of delving through libraries for hours and days at a time, through previous field work he has learned so much that he couldn't through books. Both from things he has encountered and the Pathfinders he has fought alongside, he loves to learn from others and teach all he knows. For him, sharing knowledge improves both parties and hoarding knowledge to be virtually a sin.

Name: Bapak Wokalayan Onbekend, The Magnetite Sage
Alignment: TN
Race: Wayang
Class: Wizard 5/Bloatmage 6
Description: Bapak is your typical absent minded professor. Can talk for hours about any topic you like – especially technology – but is completely unable to spot the Giant that is about to hit him. He also looks a little… odd. Not only is he grossly obese, he has reshaped his cranium into a more ovoid shape.

Name: Jafur, The Euclase Sage
Alignment: N
Race: Human
Class: Arcanist 11
Jafur is an old lean grey-haired man of osirian descent. He was quite an unpleasant and ambitious man back in the day, but as he got older his evil plans stopped bringing him joy and he joined the Society for the fun of it. Rarely seen without his annoying parrot (actually, a Nosoi psychopomp) familiar Iaggy, Jafur has no friends in the Society except the retired Master of Spells Aram Zey. Even though no one likes him or Iaggy, his potent magic has helped the Society on multiple occasions.
