Appearance
Azlum is a young man with short but disheveled blue hair and pale purple eyes. His hair used to be black and his eyes green, however a deadly awakening of powers has changed that forever along with some nasty scars covering the left side of his body up to half his neck. He always wears a cloak with a hood as to not be noticed and always has a small scarf thrown around his neck in order to hide the scars of his past. He is surprisingly fit for being a more lanky individual.

Skills and Abilities
Illusory magic and mind reading although mind reading hurts his head, especially in urban areas with a lot of people. The scars on his body hurt when he uses his powers but it doesn't hurt much and is more of an inconvenience. He could get his investigation jobs done easier but at what cost? Somewhat skilled with daggers, but he prefers non-violent negotiations and is usually kept as an investigator, tactician, or spy. He is also oddly naturally excellent at playing the violin, although he'll never tell anyone as it is useless information.

Personality
Very quiet and taciturn. An acerbic and, some would say, cold individual. He says no more than what is necessary and to some this seems rude, however it is not his intention. It is very hard for him to trust anyone due to his past but it is not impossible to get him to open up. Not a person you catch smiling or laughing. Not anymore. He is a drifter and has seen his fair share of death and injustice. He tends to stay out of the way of people unless some sort of duty calls to him to help. This has led him getting into altercations with people in cities and rural areas so he must watch his back at all times. An intelligent person, he keeps a cool and level head in just about any situation and is always prepared for the worst. Troubled by his past, his old mentor and torturer is always inside of his head, goading him to give in to temptation and use his power to the fullest extent. This would either kill Azlum or split his mind in two and literally make him go insane. He is very close with his Grandparents as they know what truly happened and work with him giving him information.

Biography & Lore
Azlum Yngrim was born in Elbion to parents who loved him more than life itself. As a young child he could hear voices in his head that would consistently give him migraines. His mother and father were Librarians, so he would spend much of his time reading. When he showed signs of magic usage at a young age, particularly mind reading, his parents supported him fully and helped him become an apprentice. He was sent away to a mage's tower in the Falwood where it would be hard to be disturbed. Here he was taught a good number of spells but was quickly noted to be a strong user of illusory magic and a gifted mind reader. From then on he strictly studied the art of illusions and learned to focus on individual thoughts as to not be overwhelmed by the voices as he had been when he was a child.

Unfortunately the guild that his parents had gave him to were not to be trusted. The head mage manipulated Azlum into using his powers to spy and gather information on other guilds as to blackmail them and gain favour to the College of Elbion. When he finally realized this at the age of 12 he tried to leave but the head mage had different plans and proceeded to torture Azlum. With his mind slowly breaking, a surge of magical power burst forth from him shattering the minds of all the mages in the tower. However, the massive energy that burst from him left the left side of his body up to half his neck in scars that resembled burn marks.

Fearing for his safety, Azlum ran away and can't trust anyone. Not even his parents as he believes they sold him off on purpose when in reality they didn't know. He has been hiding and honing his skills for 4 years now and believes himself to be a criminal. In some ways, he is as the murder of the guild is still being investigated and he is the only member missing. For now he works as an investigator himself, helping others and using his powers to good use.
