Numis
Court Wizard
Fighter's Challenge II
Numis’s books are fairly extensive (even if some are apparenlly ruined he has almost all spells of first, second, and third level recorded.
Numis is an aged fellow who matches the wizard stereotype almost perfectly. His long beard often falls into his soup, while his bushy eye-brows hide twinkling gray-green eyes. He smokes a pipe more because it is expected of him than out of personal preference (he rarely smokes when meeting with just one or two people), and his familiar, a black tomcat named Task, is respected for his formidable mousing abilities.
Numis doesn't believe in keeping his light under a bushel. He talks openly about the various experiments he is performing and the magical research he's done, all of which is tedious for non-wizards. He exaggerates his own accomplishments. Numis is a proficient wizard, but he is not the world-class mage he claims to be.
