Character Information

Summary

Alkali is a maid mage. A made maid mage. Magically, he's essentially mediocre, his arcane toolbox still in the process of being filled. He can do wards and watchers and a few basic spells with no clear specialty. He does, however, have 7 edge and the ability to call up force 7 spirits. That helps. He works for the Choson Ring when he isn't running, making sure their nerds don't all get killed by spirits. In his free time, he's looking for God.

Goals

Find God within the metaplanes or on Earth

Attain a higher degree of independence (either within the Choson Ring or outside of it)

Make MONEY and attain magical strength

Background

Edwin has been an outsider for his entire life.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

Wise Beyond His Station (Common Sense, College Education): Alkali studied the arcane at college while still a spark. He showed great passion for the material, even while beleaguered beneath multiple jobs. Once awakened, he made sense of magic through the observable, the logical, the replicable. Those sensibilities will serve him well.

Occult Beyond His Years (Spirit Whisperer, Focused Concentration): Despite his lower magical capacity, Alkali is still a potent arcane force to be reckoned with. He can maintain low force spells without issue and the spirits that he calls forth, pieces of the astral sea, are more powerful and mysterious than they ought to be. Some of this, perhaps, is luck, but something must be said for his unique talents.

Criminal Beyond His Measure (Made Man): Alkali is not properly one of the Choson Ring, he does not speak the language and he doesn't hack. However, good mages are in high demand and Alkali is the best mage available. For the price point. He has worked dutifully for them for years, ensuring no projecting mages snoop on the vulnerable nerds in hot-sim, suppling them with wards and watchers and occasionally, using his arcane talents to erase one problem or another. He may be an outsider but he has climbed as high as an outsider rightly can.

Negative

Weak Lungs (Asthma): Physical frailness apparently runs in his family. His sister nearly died from overwork and its likely Alkali would have suffered a similar fate if he had not awakened. His lungs do not work properly and he relies upon an inhaler.

The Many Flaws of the Faithless (Designated Omega, Lack of Focus, Compulsive: Neat Freak): We are all shaped by our experiences. Alkali is no exception. He is neurotic with compulsive, cleaning tendencies. He is used to following orders, rather than giving them. And he is prone to flights of fancy, to getting lost within his own mind.
