Vaezhasar Drakspae
“Let them cling to their hollow sermons and spew their sacred drivel—sickly sweet lies dressed in sanctimony, spilling from the mouths of zealots drunk on their own delusions. Their doctrines are hollow—puppet laws handed down by craven gods who cower behind mute stone and the forked tongues of traitor priests. I spit on their idols and piss on their altars. I serve no god carved by man’s hand, and I take no man’s leave to speak my mind."
Appearance
Vaezhasar is a tall, imposing figure with skin the hue of aged leather and a muscular build. In armor, he wears ornate, gold-trimmed blue and violet warplate adorned with arcane motifs, skulls, and large crimson gems. His helmet is crowned with elaborate, curling horns and flowing ribbons. Without the helmet, he has long, sleek dark brown hair and piercing blue eyes lined with dark markings, giving him a regal yet enigmatic presence. His features are sharp and symmetrical, with a composed, commanding expression.
Skills and Abilities
Vaezhasar is a formidable sorcerer known for his mastery of conjuration, destructive arcana, and magical craftsmanship. Towering in presence and feared in reputation, Drakspae is most renowned for his unique ability to forge sentient familiars—arcane constructs bound with shards of his will—and for crafting enchanted relics from spellforged steel and brass. His creations often serve as scouts, assassins, or extensions of his own power in battle.
A scholar of forbidden lore and an artisan of living magic, Vaezhasar breathes purpose into constructs and breathes fire into the hearts of his enemies. Vaezhasar possesses unparalleled mastery over magic, enabling him to disrupt and counteract the spells of other casters with precision.
Vaezhasar’s living armor functions as both shield and reservoir: it absorbs ambient magical energy, storing it like a battery to power defensive wards and repair itself. It grants resistance to physical and arcane attacks, feeding off residual spells to sustain and strengthen its host.
Despite his overwhelming magical prowess and formidable creations, Vaezhasar is not without vulnerabilities:
1. Reliance on Constructed Power: Vaezhasar's strength is amplified through his sentient familiars and living armor. Severing his connection to these constructs—through anti-conjuration wards, dispelling fields, or spatial disruption—can significantly diminish his combat effectiveness and mobility.
2. Arcane Saturation: His armor absorbs ambient magic, but in areas devoid of magical energy or steeped in nullifying enchantments, it becomes inert—weakening his defenses and regenerative capabilities. Overloading it with chaotic or incompatible magic can also cause internal backlash.
3. Obsession with Control: Vaezhasar’s constructs reflect fragments of his will. Should one break free or be turned against him by potent mental manipulation or corruption magic, it could disrupt his focus or even injure him directly through psychic backlash.

Personality
Dutiful. Arrogant. Inquisitive. No-nonsense. Power-hungry. Surprisingly enough, honest to the bone. Hates ignorance and has little patience for the stupid and the feeble-minded. A megalomaniac.
