Headmaster Flavienne Thibault
Headmaster Flavienne Thibault
The 15th Headmaster of The University of Magical Improvement, Flavienne Thibault is an alumnus of the school, originally from Hippolyta, having graduated as a Cultural Exchange Student as an Archmagus of Applied Magical Theory.
When the 14th Headmaster passed away suddenly from disease, there was quite a kerfuffle, as he hadn't been able to whittle down his list of 10 candidates to a smaller amount. What should've been a 7-day even of deliberation actually turned to a 3-month affair akin to a political election.
Flavienne ended up winning in the end, mostly due to her having a very well-thought-out plan of improvements for the school, including increasing arcane understanding of Divine and Nature-based magic, along with theoretical forms of magic such as Chronomancy.
She has currently been headmaster for 7 years, as of 1009, and as a High Elf barely in her 200's, she'll probably be headmaster for many more years, or until she feels that she should step down.
Physical Description
Body Features
Flavienne is heavier than most elves, but she prides herself in her frame, especially in terms of her fashion choices, and claims that "Some pride themselves on seeing nations rise and fall, I pride myself on seeing new souffle's rise and fall!"
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Flavienne has had a very unremarkable life in a comfortable way. Being from Hippolyta originally, she quickly grew disenchanted and disgusted with the classism and systematic issues brought upon by her own people and decided to leave in any way she could.
She found her answer when she discovered The University of Magical Improvement in Paris, which was advertising their Cultural Exchange Program around the time she came to develop her Arcane powers. It took only one request of her fathers to get her within the program, and she quickly was accepted.
Ever since then, she threw herself into studying, embracing, and enjoying the cultural smorgasbord that is Paris, and following her graduation worked to teach at the academy ever since.
Even when The Border Wars shocked Edda, she did not return to Hippolyta, considering herself a citizen of Paris above all else, and refusing to turn against the ones she truly lived with for the decades since she had left home.
Gender Identity
Flavienne has always presented herself as Female, and very much enjoys appearing feminine as well, although not to the point of vainglory.
Education
Fabienne's fathers were of a high enough status in Hippolyta to get the young child a high-quality basic education, and after awakening to her magical abilities, she was quick to discover TUMI and began education there. She went through not only the basic education and four years of specific magical training but even went through the Archmagus course to refine her magical abilities and understanding of practical theory.
Employment
While attending school at TUMI, Flavienne worked at the school library and did some odd jobs around the Arcanism District to hone her connection to her surroundings, as well as gain personal relationship experience with others.
There was a brief period after her graduation where she worked as a private magic tutor to some high-end clients, but felt the pull towards public education before long, and returned to work dutifully at the school.
In the decades she's been alive, she's taught as a teacher-on-loan at many institutions, especially in Atalanta, but always returns back to TUMI, which now has made her Headmaster.
Intellectual Characteristics
Flavienne is a very socially intelligent person, almost as much as she is magically intelligent. As such, she derives most of her knowledge from merely letting people speak, and storing bits of information to research in her own time.
