Zalman

Zalman

Zalman was a particularly bright and wise child, displaying intelligence far beyond his years. This came as no surprise, given that his uncle Eldric was a renowned mage. imagination with tales of magic and wonder. Enthralled by his uncle’s stories, Zalman persistently pleaded with his parents to allow him to study with Eldric. After much deliberation, they agreed to let him follow his dreams. At Markrands Mage School Zalman spent countless hours poring over tomes, charts, and scrolls, dissecting creatures, and transcribing ancient texts. Zalman excelled, impressing the professors advancing to learning real spells. He mastered spells like Burning Hands, Hold Portal, Mend, and Magic Missile, among others. Enticed by the promise of new adventures, he joined an entertainers' wagon traveling south. To pay his way, Zalman used his magical talents to perform tricks he had learned in the dormitories, such as the classic three cups and a vanishing ball game. The company of the entertainers were pleasant but he has grown restless, and is beginning to contemplate his next journey.

Zalman's journey so far

I'm really enjoying my adventure outside school and "in the real world", just what I was hoping for. Initially I was with a travelling entertainment group, which was fine but soon switched to a caravan which was headed to the city. This has turned out to be an excellent move as I've fallen in with a great bunch of characters. We've been through a few adventures together now and I think this group is one to stick with. I've earned so much money on these adventures that I can't actually carry it all so I've invested some with a fellow group of Hobbits who are trying to establish a leather working business in the city. I met them on the caravan train and they seem like a worthy bunch, good luck to them. I'm off on a new adventure soon so fingers crossed it'll be as exciting, and educational as what's happened so far.
