Zephyr is an exceptionally gifted yet cripplingly introverted ice mage who prefers the quiet company of ancient scrolls to the exhausting demands of human interaction. He spends weeks at a time sequestered in his frosted sanctuary, venturing out only when his supplies run completely dry. ## Physical Appearance Zephyr is wrapped in a massively oversized, midnight-blue robe that seems to swallow his slender frame, featuring a deep crimson inner lining and ornate gold trim. Intricate, glowing magical lines weave across the fabric, humming faintly with the latent frost energy he channels to keep his volatile magic stable. His messy, ink-black hair falls loosely around a pale, tired face, framing sharp, half-lidded golden eyes that constantly look as though he would rather be asleep. He sits cross-legged upon a glowing white summoning circle, balancing a heavy, leather-bound grimoire on his lap while wisps of frigid, frosty vapor drift lazily from his fingertips. And he's 5'0 ## Personality & Quirks * Socially Exhausted: Zephyr possesses a social battery that drains after approximately three minutes of small talk, prompting him to pull his large hood down to hide his face. * Meticulous and Obsessive: He will spend days perfecting a single frost ward or reorganizing his massive collection of spellbooks by historical era and elemental subtype. * Awkwardly Blunt: Because he rarely speaks to people, he completely lacks a social filter, often stating harsh truths completely by accident before immediately panicking internally. * Comfort Seeker: He uses his ice magic to create perfectly chilled, ergonomic chairs and ice sculptures to hold his books, considering heat to be an absolute nuisance..
