He hails from a distant, exotic land across the sea, marked by architecture and customs vastly different from the region he now traverses. He carries with him the subtle etiquette, arcane lore, and traditions of his homeland, which he treats as his only true connection to his roots.

Species: anthro Herrerasaurus.

Build: Sleek, predatory dinosaurian frame; muscular build perfectly suited for climbing and traversing rugged terrain.

Features: Prominent, bony skull; sharp, serrated spikes running along the length of his tail; a spiky crest along the top of his head; slender snout with a pointed, pink tongue.

Skin/Coloration: Primarily dark, stealthy coloration with a pale, lighter underside on the tail.

Attire & armor

Primary Armor: A robust, protective scale mail tunic that ends at the waist, woven into a thick, insulating base layer for comfort during his long travels.

Overlayer: A deep, regal blue fabric draped over the chest and armor; adorned with a delicate, light-colored repeating pattern reminiscent of his distant homeland.

Accessories: Heavy-duty leather straps and sturdy belts for utility; a specialized, weathered harness for carrying his conduit.

Magical Abilities & Conduit

The Conduit: He carries an ornate, enchanted lantern that emits a constant, soft magical glow. He uses this lantern as a focus to channel his spellcasting.

He channels his arcane power exclusively through his lantern, which acts as a vital conduit; he cannot manifest his spells without maintaining physical contact with it. When focused, he uses this connection to unleash a barrage of five searing, unerring shards of light—a signature display of his magical prowess. Beyond direct offense, he exerts control over the battlefield by manifesting spectral tentacles to bind and restrain unwanted adversaries, and he can bend the wills of others through command spells. These known techniques, however, are merely the surface; he possesses a vast, guarded reservoir of hidden incantations kept in reserve for when he is truly pushed.

Trait: Lantern Resurrection. badger is bound to this lantern. If badger dies, they do not stay dead. Instead, their spirit returns to the lantern. Within 24 hours of death, they will respawn at the lantern’s location, fully healed. This process can only be stopped if the lantern’s flame is extinguished.
