Az'Marith
Az'Marith was born as one more inclined to the academic as opposed to the physically intensive or the overly artistic. Over the course of his life he has written about the times as they came and as they were, and not only how he saw them, but with as many accounts as he could reasonably compile. Through these lenses he's grown into an adept individual. He is well traveled and well learned with merits in journalism, as well as writing, cataloguing and also a hobbyist turned master encryptor.
Throughout his travels he has also dabbled and become proficient in a number of different crafts. Many different influences have piqued his interest at one time or another, leading him to delve into different topics with varying levels of interest and commitment. Above all, and with much secrecy, he has an unquenchable thirst for the understanding of all things arcane. While he portrays himself as little more than a scribe, he has grown into an adept spellcaster, and a master of many alchemical arts.
After becoming at odds with several factions in the imperial lands of Amol-Kalit, Az'Marith has since fled from those lands in search of a new place to... set up shop, as it were.
