Skills and Abilities
Fluid Magic and Enhancement: Ignatius's magic centers around the refinement and consumption of bodily fluids to impart substantial boons upon himself. Any bodily fluid will do--blood, sweat, saliva, urine, etc.--and through differing combinations and refining processes Ignatius has discovered new abilities and effects (Ignatius gains only minor boons from raw, unrefined fluids). His favorite concoction is one for Growth, which temporarily enlarges his stature to massive heights, towering over foes as a giant.
** While not as formidable as a full-on blood mage, Ignatius does retain the ability to magically manipulate bodily fluids, his own and those of others.
** Ignatius's concoctions are poisonous to anyone but him.
** When his current boon wears off, he goes through a "withdrawal" phase, in which he is weakened and cannot imbibe another concoction for a short time.

Personality and Characteristics
Major
* A real sumbitch.
* Smug and insufferable to most people. Treats most people as literal garbage, unworthy of breathing the same copious amount of air he's breathing. Likes to surround himself with people he deems to be competent.
* Gluttonous and greedy. Holds a hell of a grudge.
* Because of the nature of his magic, Ignatius loves to experiment, and has an inquisitive mind. This is not a good thing. He has no scruples or morals that would hold him back.
* Would stab his own mother in the back if he thought it would bring him some worthwhile benefit. Has little regard for life other than his own, with only very few exceptions.
* Often gets wrapped up in his work. Can be aloof.

Biography and Lore
Fools.
The Revolution and the Republic it spawned were the worst things to happen to Vel Anir and the Academy. A failed experiment.
One solution. Obviously.
Corrupt it from within. New experiments, new experiments. From the rot might come something worthwhile.
