Appearance
Body Features
A tall, thin and young tiefling with solid black eyes and black hair. He has pale skin, which has a slight red tint, betraying the demonic blood in his ancestry. He has long curling horns protruding backwards from the top of my head sweeping back with my hair before straightening backwards.

Personal history
As a tiefling, I know very little about my history and how the fiendblood entered my bloodine. To help me learn more about my ancestry and the powers available to me, I joined a cloister at Candlekeep.
During this time I pored over the many tomes and scrolls defining the fiends and their domains. This caused me to grow in power, knowledge and confidence over the years, leading those around me to become wary of the work I was doing.
On this path, I found an ancient tome for summoning those from the devils domain and how to bend them to my will. I leapt at this opportunity and followed the ritual at the first opportunity. However, it wasn't long before it backfired, with the summoned devil breaking from the containment and seizing the upperhand, bending me to it's will instead. I took this opportunity to make a pact, selling my soul for access to the knowledge that the devil serving Levistus has, starting my path as a Warlock. This meant that I needed to serve when needed, furthering the knowledge and goals of my patron, in return I get the power made available by my patron.
Sharing my knowledge with a librarian in my cloister, I found she was fascinated by the fiend patron I had come to work with. To this end she has followed me in my adventures, which I find useful in furthering my goals, she doubles everything I can read at once after all.

Personality
Motivation
A member of Candlekeep's own, dedicated to the curatorship of what is likely the most complete body of lore and history in all the world, using these resources to further my knowledge and to discover more about my ancestry.
I have now been sent out to (in my view) increase my knowledge and to further my research in the pursuit of power. This gives me access to the vast libraries across the worlds, and influence over those who belong to my cloister.
