Description
Tall and slender, this human stands about six and a half feet in height. His
build is slight, and it would seem a strong enough wind could blow him off
his balance. His head is shaven clean, the darkly tanned scalp of his
seeming to glisten ever so slightly against the light. His brown eyes have a
rigid appearance, seemingly cut into his face and surrounding a slightly
pointed nose. His jaw is squared, its chin covered in a narrow goatee, it
coarse brown hair stretching several inches off his face. While seemingly
frail, the is a hint of muscle tone to his forearms and calves, this thin
muscle structure rippling against the tanned skin with his movements. A
solumn look about him, he seems to show little in the way of emotion.
Role
The loss of Wisdom and its affects of devastation

The Rod of Minos, the tainted object seemingly spewed from the depths of hell
had found its way into the hands of Aestelor. Greed being a driving factor
in his aquiring of it, Aestelor was quite proud of the shiny new object that
he held as his weapon. Unbeknown to him though, the rod itself held cursed
magic that slowly began the process of draining wisdom from the mind of
Aestelor. After time, Aestelor went walking one day, and suddenly felt a
moment of complete blankness, only to look down and see the scepter lying on
the ground. Not sure exactly what just took place, Aestelor continued on
about his way. As he did, he found his thoughts harder to graps, and
seemingly easy things for him to comprehend, now seemed...well difficult.
Over a few days, he noticed his wisdom seemed to be almost gone. Eventually
he was able to dimly put two and two together and realize that the rod had
stolen his wisdom, and left his head rather clouded and dim. Quite depressed
by this, Aestelor has spent his time trying to figure a way to gain back the
wisdom he had before. For now though, he has decided to leave his position
within the spire, and he fears that the recent activities in his life will
lead to wrongful actions or dangerous actions in a situation that might lead
to another Magistrate getting killed. As such, he feels he is a liability to
the Spire and will resign with hopes of returning once his wisdom has been
taken back from Minos or whoever has harnessed it. Still concious of his
spells and their castings, Aestelor has drifted into a self pitying state due
to his young age and the feelings that his life is now ruined, and that a
bright future has been lost. Between his bouts of self pity, drunkeness and
hatred for what has happened, he will begin to find time to get back what he
believes is rightfully his.
The simple man of simple life, Aestelor

of the law, and interested in its ins and outs, he is interested in
a life of law enforcement, but at the same time is hesitant to push the fact
due to his "shortcomings". Shortcomings referring to his real lack of any
way of defending himself. Sure, he makes a great support person that can
enhance and strengthen even the greatest weaponmaster or spellcaster, its the
vision in his head of the hardened criminal battle rager headed straight for
him that makes him twinge slightly. Not to call him a coward though, because
he would give this situation his best...but he seems to know how he would
come out on the losing end of such an encounter. Nonetheless, the still
continues to struggle and find the inner fortitude to make a strong decision
in the matter. He knows there is reason to law, and its its reasons and
interworkings that fascinate him. The investigative work, the image of law
enforcers, the whole image.
He is also quite timid in the presense of those who carry an aura of Red
about them. Quite uneasy around them, he finds that being in their company
for too long makes him nervous, and not quite as capable as he is in the
company of those in the balance or those of the light. Perhaps it is the oft
told stories of backstabbery that were told in the inns and bars he
frequented. As such, he has tendancies that sway towards those of the light.
is still true to his neutral roots though, staying out of the matters of
light and dark, and instead chooses to focus more in the ways of right and
wrong, lawful or unlawful, chaos and order.
He is also very inquizitive in nature, and finds himself spending goods
amount of times traveling about and exploring the worlds around him. He
yearns for knowledge and will often be found wanting to know why things work
the way they do. He knows all things have reason, and wishes to further
understand them.
All in all, Aestelor is quite a common man with a knack for the magic of the
arcane.As such, he place placed within its guildhall and learned its
teachings. He has excelled to this point and has advanced quite far in his
guild at a very young age. He continues to seek more in the ways of arcane
magic and transmutation and considers the magic he practices as finely
crafted art.
The beliefs of a simple man.

Having found himself advanced into the pinnacle of his guild much quicker
than expected, Aestelor considered what the future had to hold for him.He
knew still in his mind that he wanted to serve the law, and had done what he
could to seek out those in the positions to make it as such. Yet, to this
day he had yet to cross paths with the one who could make it happen. Alas,
he continued sending about his missives informing the Spire of his
willingness to help and do whatever he could to see their ways advanced.
He also knew of the now burning desire in his heart to further his path in
which he was born. The path of reason.In such a sphere of influence, he
has found that all things in life have reason and it is the reasons of law
that interest him most.Not only the whys of the written law, but the reason
that drives the criminal mind, the reasons into which ones react in the ways
that they do. And while he sought the reasoning of all such things, he also
sought a reason for which peace did not exist. It was here he devouted quite
a bit of effort. Seeing himself as a peaceful individual, only acting when
such is forced, Aestelor believed that all citizens of Thera are born with
the right to live peaceful lives and to feel safe within the cities that they
lived in. As such, his gravitation towards law. They would enforce the
peace within the cities, but still complete peace itself was dependant upon
the people. It was them that would have to choose to live in peace, to
understand the differeces of others. To learn to accept that while they may
not agree with what others do or their beliefs, they still can live amongst
these people. He wanted to show the people that a disagreement did not need
to escalate into violence, and instead would be a reason for meditation why
the other believed as they did.As such were his beliefs, Aestelor had
distanced himself from evil and good, right and wrong in the literal sense as
each placed limitations that were based on ones beliefs. The only system he
found fair and necessary was law, yet in reaching the utopia of peace,
perhaps one day law would not be needed. But for now, the law stood to
protect the innocent and defend those that otherwise could not defend
themselves.
