Talk:Lysander Tharr
Records
Appearance
Lysander is a young caucasian male, about 5'3", with light brown hair and blue eyes. Attractive, and slim enough to be mistaken as a girl, he dresses in a variety of outfits notable for the geometric patterns that cover them. Often these patterns are hidden, with only parts showing making his clothing interesting, but not obvious. However, in a pinch he can use these patterns as alchemic foci as needed.
Goals
- 1. Recover lost legend lore (Raise Library Background)
- 2. Gather acolytes to the cause (Cult/Allies)
- 3. Construct materials to ensure victory over the enemies of the Solificati (Be a matter mage, build shitloads of stuff)
Personality
Lysander is a curious, energetic young man with a thirst for knowledge. Self-confident, he nevertheless can get in too deep and has to rely on those close to him to support him. While usually self reliant, he tends to gather allies to him- people who believe in the things he does, or just like him for being a kind soul. Lysander is a skilled strategist, and a charismatic leader- one who leads through skill and force of personality rather than inherited rank or fear. Lysander makes friends easily, and often inspires those close to him to better themselves.
Supplemental History
Echoes
While not familiar with Anime, Lysander is functionally the lead male character in a harem comedy style anime. Various suitors show up and try to win his hand, and Lysander ends up doing his best just to get through a situation. Embarrassed by the affection spent on him, Lysander's way of response serves only to increase the fervor and devotion of those self same suitors.
Library
Leopold Falkner
Filled with clutter of unsorted stuff
a spark can set a man ablaze. What’s there
heaped high among stored rubbish at a puff
will burst in flame. No man can be aware
oh how inflammable he is, how prone
to what can rage beyond control, unless
the piled up litter of his life is known
to him, and he is able to assess
what hazard he is in, what could ignite.
A man, disordered and undisciplined,
lives in the peril of a panic flight
before the onrush of a flaming wind.
Does it now seem I seek to be profound?
I stand on smoking ash and blackened ground!
~ Dorsha Hayes, Alchemist.
