Mythic Slightseer

Ex-Deputy Spellcasters Guildmaster and advocate for the greater understanding of magic

YTHIC SLIGHTSEER is a moonelf of non-descript appearance, an aspect he has always deemed to cultivate. Thin and willowy he looks he would blow over in a
stiff breeze but his preternatural balance and reflexes have stood him in good stead in his adventuring career. A self confessed ‘Spell-Filcher’ he learnt the art of thievery to
redistribute magic to those who had would use it more responsibly', but seemed to decide that the more responsible person was himself.

Upon establishing himself in Sarbreenar five years ago he found himself with some of the more powerful and respected citizens if Sarbreenar. One of the first friends he had was Angel Gabriel who first made him welcome in Sarbreenar, but his firmest friends were Boris the Hat who after saving his life at great risk to his own, Mythic defended to the exclusion of all others, and the priest of Lathander, Samian Ware. He openly admits that he would put there safety above his own.

A naturally distant person he did not seek out many others until cruelly tortured by the corrupt members of the Honest Watch, something that he will never forgive or forget. An elf's lifespan is long and he shrugs off what he sees as excuses for a deep corruption within Sarbreenar that would allow such excess of lawfulness.

A founding member of the Crusaders of Shadow and Light he now distances himself from what he sees as the poor shadow of the dream. For many years a respected member of the Spellcasters Guild, he worked his way up to Deputy-Guild master and introduced the Slightseer Outreach Programme to the citizens of Sarbreenar. He still gives up much of his time to encouraging apprentices to other mages, trying to develop trust between the citizens and the spellcasters, and acts a general font of information regarding the Spellcasters Guild.

He was greatly disturbed in his deputy role when his views were ignored by the guild master and mages who had accidentally injured others while attempting to save Sarbreenar were demoted and ostracised within the guild. His greatest regret was his failure to save the life of Melgar and in fact being the cause of it through a desperately hurried spell. This led Mythic to immediately resign his role within the hierarchy of the guild, as he would have seen it as hypocritical to attempt to retain his role when other mages had been demoted for less. Melgar was subsequently raised but the experience left a permanently bitter taste in Mythic's mouth and led him to devote more time to research and his new love ... magical crafting.

Today Mythic can be seen talking to the people of Sarbreenar encouraging tolerance and understanding of magic, or occasionally flying over the forests nearby with his falcon familiar, Maggot.
