Edgar Gastrofonde
Who is he? Edgar was basically my attempt at a creating a mage I could sit down with and to just plain have fun with.
Since lately all of my characters' personalities have been relatively the same, I decided to try and BASE this character on something.
And if you've RPed with me, you've probably guessed who I based him on. And if you haven't..You can find out probably by reading this.

Age: 16
Job: Earth mage
Height: 5'2"

Background:
Edgar was the oldest child in a family of 4. There was his brother, his father, and his mother. His father was a former Mage of the Staghorn Kingdom; but age had caught up with him. Too tired to perform his duties, he retired and lived a sound life with Edgar's mother; a normal woman who fell in love with his father's dashing good looks. At their young ages of 6 and 5, Edgar and his brother, Darus, had begun to show interest in their father's former studies. They began to play pretend that they were mages of the Staghorn Tower, and even role played little mage fights against eachother(In other words, throwing sticks and stones at eachother shouting "LIGHTNING BOLT"). They would at times go into the Stag woods, and perform these little games.
At the time, Staghorn had been dealing with some bear uprising in the woods. It was not always safe to run around them alone; especially off the main path and into the deep forests; which was exactly where the two young boys played their games.
(Cliche? Bite me.)
One day, during their gaming session, A bear ran over to them and stood up on it's hind legs, roaring at the two young boys. Unknown to them, there was a nest nearby; momma was pissed. Edgar's brother picked up a stone and then cast it forward to the bears face, screaming the words "LIGHTING BOLT!!!" Well, it hit Momma bear in the face, and she was not too happy. Enraged by this act of defiance; it lunged forth at Darus with it's paws and scratched him up, while knocking him to the ground. Edgar stood motionless, frozen with fear. He couldn't do anything to save his brother from this monster of a Bear. All he could do was watch as his brother screamed for help.
Edgar then turned heels and ran. Screaming at the top of his lungs. He ran as fast as his little legs could carry him, all the way home to his house right outside of the woods in the farming town. He jumped in his mother's arms.When she asked where Darus had gone, Edgar told her, and she was in shock. The family held a funeral for the boy who had been mauled by a bear later that month. Hearts were broken, and lifes were scared; mainly Edgar himself. He felt guilty. He had failed to protect the one he loved, and instead ran off and saved his own hide.
Later that night, Edgar wrote in his diary, he was going to become a mage. A full fledged mage. One that could help people; so he could never again feel helpless. His father began to school him over the years on the mechanics of mana, and how it worked. Then, at the age of 16, Edgar set off to Greendale; to go to the Tower of the Ignis Fatuss, and become an Earth Mage, like his father before him.
