Mental characteristics
Personal history
Keirku always loved song. The emotion, the creativity, the passion within each note. So when he found out about The Otherworld and the magic that reacted to song, he was there within the week. When he arrived, there were only a dozen or so people working on how to cast using the unlimited magic available. His bardic background allowed him to control his voice far better than the other mages at the time.
Since then, he has been working to create new spells. Spells can only apply force so far, but Keirku has been able to find new and interesting ways to apply that force. He has also supposedly been trying to replicate some of the effects of the latent magic in the otherworld, such as shaping the land and influencing monsters. He has had no success but he still tries. After all, if uncontroled storms of wild magic can do more, why can't he?
Accomplishments & Achievements
Keirku's greatest accomplishment is his vast repertoire of spells that he has invented. From a great explosion that blasts away everything around it to giving an ally a gentle. constant push to increase their speed and agility. Yet ask Keirku, and he'll say his best spell is what he calls his "Arcane Serpent". It applies force all around a creature, restricting its movement as if they are in a snake's coils. It is effectively like putting the target in a magic cage. This spell has been used countless times by scholars to restrain monsters for study, and by hunters to give them a leg up on their quarry.
Failures & Embarrassments
One of Keirku's biggest failures so far has been his attempts at a landscaping spell. The Otherworld is in a state of constant flux, with mountains rising and falling, lakes springing into being, and and Keirku hopes to replicate this ability to shape the land to his desire. But so far, the closest he has come to moving the land is blowing holes in it.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Keirku has a driving curiosity, and a strong desire to forge a new path forward. He has seen wild magic do many strange and wondrous things and he hopes to harness all these powers through his songs.
Savvies & Ineptitudes
As the most powerful bard in the Otherworld, Keirku has a mastery of rhythm and great control over his voice. He has also gained a large amount of knowledge of the Otherworld from his years studying its magic.

Great start and very cool HeroForge mini. You could perhaps include a bit more about his past. Is he a bard that only sings or can he also play an instrument? Where did he learn to become a bard? Does he have any family, friends, or companions (perhaps a creature affected by the magic of Otherworld that enjoyed his songs)? Does he live full time in Otherworld, or perhaps have his own research outpost set up with a portal that goes there?
I figure he lives in the Otherworld full time. He's got a whole base set up far enough away from everyone that if something explodes no one else gets hurt. Well, him and the apprentices eager to help him develop his spells. Someone this influential is bound to have fans flock to him, and ambitious mages hoping to probe his mind to help them with their developments.
