"Yes, yes, I know you asked me to call forth a dragon to burn your enemies mansion down. Yes, I know you paid me a lot of money. Yes, I know you gave me all the right reagents. Is it my fault a Deep One showed up instead and trashed your house and groped your wife and staff? Hmm? Do YOU know how summoning works? I don't exactly wave my hands around and chant something in an ominous tone. It's much more sophisticated than that! There's a que! Honest! Apparently the dragon got held up in line somewhere."

Traits:

Master Summoner- Gained notoriety after saving a village near his home from a raging fire elemental (which he'd accidentally summoned while trying to find an easier way to light his fireplace) by conjuring a torrential downpour (he was actually trying to cast a teleport spell to escape)

Master of Magic (not really)- He is well versed in the arcane arts and very knowledgeable in many areas of invocation, conjuration and abjuration. However his practical knowledge is nowhere near the level of his learned knowledge.

Familiar: Fire Lizard- A tiny dragon-like creature that sits upon his shoulders, can talk to most living creatures, is long lived and capable of great magical feats. The true source of Terrance's continued celebrity and, probably, the only reason he's still alive.

Tech Savvy- You wouldn't know it, but he's good with machines. Really good. He should've been a technomage.

Guns Ahoy- Give most classically trained mages a gun and they fumble with it. Give Terrance a gun and he's more likely to kill an enemy for every bullet in the gun. It's unfortunate he hates firearms with a passion, believing them to be useless.
