| Distinct Markings |
When using magic, light blue markings cover his upper body. When using Dragon Form these marks turn black. On his left hand is a gauntlet made completely of stone, which possesses only 3 fingers. As his body markings change, so does the color of the gauntlet.
| Physical Description |
Avantus stands at almost 6 feet, covered in old robes of different mountain tribes. On his back he carry's a large twisted Blackthorn-wood staff, covered in carved markings. He wares no undershirt, because in the mountains it is to hot and to much of a bother to carry such cloths, and across his chest comes a leather sash covered in slots which hold vials from his left shoulder to his right hip. His face is soft, and welcoming to those who look at him, though his hear is covered by a leather hood.
| Habits |
Avantus is known to kick jokes around, and talk and interject his opinion where ever he can. Avantus has a quirk of collecting a tooth from any game he kills in the mountains. He hangs the biggest teeth on the front part of his sash, and grinds the rest of them into various potions.
| Likes |
Avantus is friendly to most he meets, despite what the Circle of Magi would have you think of him. He loved animals, as long as they don't try to kill him, and treats them as an equal rather than a pet. Re reveres dragons as near-godlike creatures who should be studied, and actually does spend a lot of his time studying them. Avantus also love flowers, and nature as a whole, which is why he lives in the mountains.
| Dislikes |
Being a wanted Malefivarum Avantus hates the Templars, and by extension the Circle of Magi. Anyone who remotely threatens Avantus automatically gets put on his "kill list". Even though Avantus doesn't use his last name doesn't mean he doesn't have one. Templars know Avantus' last name, and use it to taunt him, which makes him extremely angry... The reason for this is unknown.
| Strengths |
-Mountains, because of the abundance of stone and rock for him to use as weapons.
-Avantus' left gauntlet acts as a source of power for his spells if he cannot use any nearby stone.
-Staff. When Avantus wields his staff his attacks become much more stronger, and so does his Dragon Form.
-Poison resistant. After living in the mountains for most of his life, he has accidentally discovered many forms of poisonous plants.
-High elevation doesn't effect Avantus' lungs like it would a normal person.
-Avantus can channel his rage inward, and take on the form of a half-dragon.
| Weaknesses |
-Metal. Avantus cannot use metal for his spells.
-Water. Avantus cannot swim.
-Avantus is easily angered. When he is angry he can become reckless, and endanger everyone around him.
-While in Dragon Form he loses all control of himself, and will kill anything or anyone that gets in his way
| Weapon(s) |
-Blackthorn-wood staff
- Stone gauntlet

| Personality |
Avantus is a friendly and social man on the outside, but inside a constant battle rages between good and evil. Part of him wants to be a normal man, with a happy family. But the other side wants to embrace the power flowing through his veins, and crush anything that stands in his way. For the most part, Avantus is polite and nice to those around him, but when made angry will become an unstoppable force.
| History |
Avantus was born practically at the feet of the Circle of Magi. One day an elven woman came to the Circle Tower covered in a black hood. Even though the covered her face, her hands were crippled and shriveled up and it was clear she was very elderly. In her hands was a small child, crying and kicking inside of a blanket wrapped around it. It was clear to anyone who saw that the elven woman wasn't the mother, for she was to old. With only 2 words the woman gave the newborn child to First Enchanter, and spoke to him "Avantus..." and another word only heard by the First Enchanter, before she turned and walked out of the tower.
Without any other choice, the First Enchanter raised the baby boy with the name Avantus. It didn't take very long, only a few years, before the boy started to show signs of extreme magical potential. After being put into Circle training, his powers became even stronger. It didn't take very long for the Templars to notice his powers, and he was put through the Harrowing at age 14. (The first time in history anyone below the age of 16 had done it.)
His Harrowing took only a matter of hours before he returned unharmed from the Harrowing. Astonished, the Circle had no other option than to make him an adapt mage.

Twisting and turning unable to sleep
DO THE VOICES EVER STOP
My thoughts speak louder the more I resist
AND THEY'RE DRIVING ME INSANE
DO THEY EVER GO
Inside I'm a danger to myself
IM A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I'm a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
Losing the battle I've waged on myself
LOCK ME UP AND TOSS THE KEY
Toys in the attic its all getting worse
WHY WONT THEY LET ME BE OH GOD MAKE IT STOP
Inside I'm a danger to myself
IM A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I'm a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
FIT ME FOR A STRAIT JACKET
PUT ME IN A PADDED CELL
I'M A DANGER TO YOU ALL
And I'm a danger to myself
Inside I'm a danger to myself
IM A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I'm a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
Inside I'm a danger to myself
IM A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I'm a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
