A once loving father and devoted husband, Valentin changed after the death of his beloved wife, becoming entirely driven by the thought of immortality, of something eternal to make his mark on the world. Paranoia and suspicion along with his personal research drove a deep wedge between him, his social circle, and his twin sons and eventually led to his downfall at the hands of several nobles and the Inquisition. Mazin's last memory of the man is a broken, slavering lunatic, trapped in his room and abandoned by his few servants. It is unknown if the man himself yet lives, but Mazin has no deep desire to find out, considering his family entirely dead and gone.</div> | ||

Brave, reckless and and at times, even more fiery and driven than his younger brother, Célian took to his duties and responsibilities as a knight in training with passion. But he also had the same mischievous streak and odd sense of humor that Mazin had and both would often fuel each other's worst tendencies towards fooling and tricking others. Making a promise to each other to become dragoons together, Célian hoped to keep his brother on the path as long as he was alive. Eventually though, the brothers were kidnapped by heretics hired by a rival of Valentin and Célian was forced to consume dragon's blood in place of his younger brother. Unable to fight or resist the transformation that followed, he was driven mad by fear and lashed out his brother, getting killed by Mazin's first spell. Mazin admittedly feels a great deal of emptiness with his brother gone, but has since tried to put the past behind him.</div> | ||

[edit]
Mazin Khin is a wildwood elezen of Ishgardian descent, exiled for crimes of both blood and family. Raised to be a lancer in a middle class family and meant to serve one of the High Houses as a bannerman alongside his twin brother, circumstances eventually altered his fate drastically and forced him into fleeing his homeland. A mage with heavily lightning aspected aether, Mazin is a potential red mage, but remains largely undisciplined in his abilities. Even his minor healing magicks leave something to be desired and normal spellcasting has a tendency to go wildly awry - failure to cast one spell often leads to the accidental miscasting or casting of a different spell in its place.
The most prominent feature of Mazin's appearance is his mint green hair and bright, almost sea green eyes, traits of his family line and while not suspected at first, eventually became associated with the possibility of heretical blood in their veins. Other than that, Mazin's appearance is one of a former lancer and wanderer- a lean but muscular build, a slightly tanned complexion from days wandering under the sun, and various scars, both old and new brought on from fights, failed pickpocket attempts, miscast magicks, and past incidents, both accidental and intentional. He dresses himself to the best of his abilities, wearing various robes, armor, and light clothing as he sees fit and keeps a generally clean, if slightly dusty, appearance. He keeps his hair long and likes to keep it tied back, rarely letting it down unless grooming and maintaining basic hygiene. Mazin has a fondness for leather pants and tough, road worthy boots.
Aspects That Stand Out:
Mazin is a man who enjoys simply gliding through life, doing what he wants and is generally of a somewhat lazy, easy going mindset. Not much can motivate him to fight or argue and insults rarely phase him, often times just outright ignoring most thrown his way or blithely turning the situation around into one of joking, self deprecation or ridicule at the expense of his detractors. He is, by his own admission, a bit of a sarcastic asshole and mouths off at times where he would best be served at keeping his mouth shut. There are times, however, that he shows an extremely serious, darkly angry side and he never forgets a wrong or injustice, especially if it is someone he considers precious or innocent that is on the receiving end of such things. What does phase him, however, is pressure to actually cast magicks or attempt to heal someone, considering his own skill to be wildly unpredictable and a risk to himself and others. And for all his joking around and acting the fool, Mazin expects the absolute worst of everyone he meets regardless of their intent- past experiences having colored his point of view to the point of being jaded. He just doesn't let it show until driven to do so.
