Nathaniel Ectio -[10/30 Step; You Tried, *]
You fail to harvest anything, these Lower Form Radicals are violently binded. Ether Radical T2 at (3,3) and (2,2) Because of Request
Sleeping at the table has become a regular occurence for you, and your mentor is too far gone with the thought that you are an impassioned youth, it is flattering, at a distance. You wake up with for the most part a clean slate, and heavy body, the journal is thankfully lacquered to prevent a mess from what has transpired over the night.
The upstairs room seems dimmer for some reason, and you smell a bit ripe. Maybe it is time to search for the Scholar, or finally have a meal in the tavern downstairs.
You are met with a strange pause. [+10 Steps]

Necromancy - An in-born talent allows Nathaniel to control the energies of the living. His greatest feat was reanimation. Transmutation - Because of the nature of his mother's reanimation, he has a handle of transforming, or tempering thaums. Light - In his brilliance, he was raised around the Gleaming Noon, and is accustomed to the free radicals that shine forth from the Eden Furnace Dark - In his years after, and meticulous work in the Shimmering Dusk, he had to find ways to practice his art with the scholar that brought him up to Journeyman Healing - It is a natural occurrence that one can mend wounds, is also of gentle nature, and a knack for others. It is sad.
Afflictions ::
Cascading/Unstable - His last great manifested he'd admit, would be reanimation. He knows better, he is a powder keg inside, and can surge forth greater feats in his instability. [Prone to Unstable/Uncontrollable Reactions] Mutable/Split - As a journeyman, one thing sets him aside from a vagrant, profession. As Nathaniel, one thing sets him apart from a Journeyman, nerve. [Difficulties with Unstable Radicals/Thaums/Arcana]
Biography ::
Nathaniel was born into a poor household. His mother was always sickly and his father had left the family long ago, never to be seen again. Left basically to fend for himself, Nathaniel found he had the ability to control the life-force of other creatures... and people. The power went to his head, and he abused it for a time, using it to threaten others in the slums and get what he wanted. However, when his mother finally succumbed to a terrible sickness, his uncontrolled powers, fueled by his grief, caused her animated corpse to rise and begin terrorizing people. Horrified by what he had done, Nathaniel fled his home. He eventually met a scholar who taught him how to control his abilities, and set gave him work as his assistant. Nathaniel spent a few years in his care, but became restless, and felt the need to travel and search for meaning in life. He left with his teacher's blessing, visited his old home one last time to pay respects to his mother, and set off on a journey that would take him who-knows-where....
Nathaniel is a bit of a pessimist. He never believes that things will simply 'work out for the best,' and commonly prepares himself for disappointment. This does not stop him from having a strong sense of justice, however; he cannot stand seeing people mistreated, for it brings back guilty memories of the times he used others to get what he wanted. Indeed, he feels guilty every time he uses his skills in Necromancy, though his teacher always told him he had such powers for a reason. Caught between confused guilt and a sense of duty to help those who are in a state of poverty as he once was, Nathaniel continues to search for a reason for his existence.

You are sore after a restless sleep in the backroom, and find that there is a certain rush when you get up and about. The bar feels strangely wary, as opposed to the more usual air of warmth.
It is uncomfortable to think that your nightly nightmares may be because of nightly visits from real mares.

Amelia Oaks -Wake up and then inspect gear. [0/30 Steps; I WISH I HAD A SON, LIKE MLC]
With a start, you feel that something is amiss, and scramble out of bed in indecent attire. It is far into the future, where you have had to get by, initially on bequeathing your more sacred possessions, an interesting thought, considering what followed after; but you still manage to have clothing for the awfully brisk weather of the Dusk-Lit City, and nice leather padding, with small bits of chain mail.
Your wardrobe is otherwise lacking its old splendor, but you still manage to have a Flanged Sceptor, made of a lightly flickering metal, and a pair of Vambraces of similar make.
Outside, the cresting light can be made out over the nearby hills... Hmmm. [+ 20 Steps]
Puritanical - [Difficulties with Stabilizing Arcana] Monolith - [♥♥♥♥ if I know]
Biography ::
Born into wealth, the Oaks family was known for its greed, obsession for power, and inability to discern the gender of children. Amelia quickly became fed up with her family and left at the young age of 13 to join the church, devoting her life to aid others and fight the corruption in kings and nobles. With powerful supportive skills and experience with shields and heavy armor, Amelia fought on the front lines in holy wars as a heavy defender or from the rear as a support mage. With time, the church had eliminated all of the visible corruption in the hearts of leaders, only to fall to corruption itself, and eventually tear itself apart from internal conflicts.
With the church collapsed and her family one of the many accused and executed, Amelia travels the land, searching for a purpose while questioning her past actions.

Nathaniel Ectio -Pay a visit to the tavern for some food. Listen in on conversations while I eat (if I can). [13/13 Steps]
Pertinent Info There's not really any, I can enlarge if you'd like.
You aren't brought down by much of the inclined weather. The morning is a bore, and the soft blue light in your room and board do not help with your tiredness. You shake the thought of the lapping azure shadows from your dream.
With a quick through path, across the way, you hurry into a local tavern for a late meal. The hearth burns nicely, but buffets with each gust. And you start to make out your late night ravings hitherto, as you stares at the coolly lit room. At least dining here isn't bland.[+10 Steps]

Alvin Miller -lazily work in the pub. [3/3 Steps]
Pertinent info. A T1iv Ether Radical collapsed into a T1iii. [d6 -> 3] A Spaced Ether Radical becomes a Free Roaming Ether as it wrecks havoc on your internals. [d6 -> 1; d4 -> q2]
You believe you are starting to hallucinate, and Today is starting off horribly.
Today is especially cold for some reason, but the drafts in the tavern are starting to pick up, even with the in-set doors. Not much is new, you end up stealing two of the backroom blankets, and bus the counter, as the patrons, and other works huddle around the stove, hearth, and mantle. Of which, it seems only a few of the regulars have come in for a late breakfast- You approach an Adept, with their order.

Amelia Oaks -Put on gear/grab scepter, go check out the town. [0/23 Steps, Well then, +10 steps for three next turns then]
It's a pity that most of your gear had to be sold off to travel out of the Brighter Lands... No matter. You put on your normal gear: leggings, trousers, tunic, tabbard, and a furred over tunic. You leave most of your leather, and chain, as you head out the door with only the scepter, and a horizontal holster-pouch.
With your passable accommodations, you are given a nice view of the fluctuating lights of the Greater Bright over the nearby foothills, just outside of the local shadow. It is inspiring.[+10 Steps]
It is cold, and the shade takes a cooler form today than any other you care to recall. There are a few writ offices around, for each little plaza, and block cluster, but Today's simply started for you, and you eventually stop in the late morning, between a few usual tasks around town.
