[Dantrag]

Name: Veric Astien, usually hides under the identity of "Altair"

(Original/preferred) Race: Breton

Class: Sorcerer

Age: 91

Sex: Male

Appearance: Whatever he likes. His original form, however, would be an old wrinkled Breton but through his growing ability to change his looks he will normally appear around 25, light build, around 5'10". Always has clear yellow eyes and is unable to hide them. He has a glare said to be capable of stopping you dead in your tracks in fear, or is it just illusion magick trickery? Clean shaved and dark hair pulled into a shoulder-length ponytail.

Equipment: Whatever fits his role. Normally, though, he dons a robe fitting the occasion and a Dwemer broadsword with which he is reasonably skilled.

Personallity: arrogant, calculating, evil.

Brief History: Up until a year ago, Veric had been trapped in a dimension of his own creation for twenty years; a castle of sorts created in his own mind and brought to life by a vast knowledge of alteration and illusion magick (it's complicated). Before that, he attempted to stop Brianna, daughter of Serene, from giving birth to three children who would ultimately spell his demise. Anything before that is unknown. Records of any parents, siblings, or his birthplace are nonexistant. Recently, he has taken on a false persona with the intent of ruling the Empire and claiming an ancient power.

However, he has a rather complex false history as "Altair", an up and coming altmer politician. This history may be doubted, but with his quick rise to fame and power, nobody would dare dispute it now. He began his duties in politics as a magical advisor to Chancellor Ocato during his rule, but was never really needed as Ocato never had to deal with any real magical crises. So Altair spent most of his time studying in the Imperial Library pursuing his own personal development as a mage and working on various research projects for the Empire. After Ocato's murder and the ransacking of the Council Chambers, Altair decided to take a more active role in politics, and his heroics during the Silhouette crisis earned him great respect and adoration from the people, making his rise easy. Altair was the leader of the movement for democracy, and his dream has been recently realized; what once was the Empire is now ruled by a governing council consisting of four representatives from each province.

Now he sits on the ruling Council of Tamriel, and unknown to most, has plans to become the sole ruler.

Other Relevant Info.: An expert in all forms of magicka, and a mastery of illusion and alteration beyond any other individual, he is not to be taken lightly as a spellcaster. Veric is capable of seemingly summoning objects, using illusion to create the image of them and alteration to give them a physical presence. Though only the capability of creating objects is known to others, not how it is done or how to counter it as of yet. Other uses of this magicka are still unrevealed.

He also uses a different kind of magicka closely related to his dealings with alteration and illusion to change his appearance to that of any race, sex, and realistic body size. Details are still unknown, but his magick affinity and relative body strength do not change from form to form and the change alone does little to mask his presence to those sensitive to magicka.

(Sorry about the double post, but I hate to put two characters in one post. I don't know why.)
