Special abilities

Regulus' go to attack is what appears to be a Magic Missile spell but is actually Eldritch Blast. Lately there is an almost imperceptible, but constant, white glow around him: a blessing from his Celestial Patron.

Apparel & Accessories

Regulus typically wears a striped, collared shirt with a dark vest and a dark necktie. Pinned on the vest are a Gilnaith Enforcement Officer badge and his Watchful Order of Magists and Arcanists badge. He has a dark leather, underarm holster for his dark wood and gold wand. On his right pinky is a stone kintsugi and ruby ring and his left hand and wrist is adorned with his Pulse Wave Gauntlet.

Specialized Equipment

Regulus' wand is his defining weapon. It is made from a dark brown wood and inlaid with gold. The tip is designed to mimic a fountain pen but has a mechanical eye attached to the base of it. His wand is always at the ready to be drawn.

Wealth & Financial state

He has not yet earned a noble title for himself, but his home rivals those of wealthy nobles in smaller towns and kingdoms. He spends rather frivolously if it means he can show off and give people a good time. He has no physical debts, but he owes an Archdruid a favor and is beholden to his Celestial Patron.
