Appearance

Aaoskar has an angular face with bushy white unruly eyebrows, pointed ears, vivid blue pupils set in Grazhir white eyes and a straight, broad bridged nose. Your snow-white hair is very long and straight, and is worn loose. You have smooth sand-colored skin and a lithe build. He is toweringly tall for an Elf. He appears to be young. He has a large, thick, bristling mustache on your upper lip and a long fuzzy beard. He has a tattoo of a complex tyura circle depicted in vivid shades of yellow, red, and white on your left wrist.

Dress: Aaoskar is wearing a wizard-shaped storyteller hat with a sleeping dragon embroidered on the front, a pair of storyteller's brass reading spectacles, a storyteller's book bag stitched with various mythical beasts, some multilayered dress robes tailored from Grazhir-white moonspun silk and some fitted shadowy black sandals with detailed straps.

Relations

Family: Moonbender Family

Clan: Descendant of River Elf and Wind Elf clans

Guild: Moon Mage

Sect: Fortune's Path but considers himself to be a student of both Lomtaun and Tiv. On nearly every day, Aaoskar visits Lomtaun. It is reported that the two meet and drink a tea with rarely ever saying one word before the two nod and depart.

Religion: Aaoskar is rumored to share many of the views of the N'ai Jrana, though others say that he is a fringe group within this nearly forgotten religion.

Racial and Guild Heresy: Aaoskar believes that returning to the ocean is synonymous with traveling into the ocean waters of the Astral Plane and that River Elves regularly traveled the Astral Plane in the forgotten past, though by different methods. The Astral Plane, Aaoskar claims, was fundamentally altered when Grazhir shattered, transforming the Astral Plane into a Plane overwhelmed by Lunar Magic, making the Plane less hospitable than it had been in antiquity. Aaoskar disagrees with Lunar Magic theory taught by the guild and claims that the Microcosm is a 'safe bubble' only in the sense that it is the eye of the storm caused by Grazhir's entanglement with the Astral Plane.

Rumors

Aaoskar is rumored to be in various groups. Some say he belongs to a secret society, but it also whispered that he is a member of The Children of Kalestraum, the Progeny of Tezirah, the Goldcaps, an unknown order known as the The Greensward Pact, the Order of the Iron Circle, Fortune's Path, Monks of the Crystal Hand, and various ancient sacrificial religious cults. Aaoskar laughs off these claims.

Curious Sayings

Curiosities: Aaoskar often cryptically says that truth comes from a whisper.

The following theories are not established in-game lore. Read them with caution. Many talks from many mages contributed to the following.

Though I am certain that I am missing many people who's conversations influenced or contributed to these works. It is impossible to name them all.
