Korevi Sarelias (ko-REHV-ee sah-RHEL-ee-us)
You're even more annoying in person than in my dreams.
Korevi Sarelias is a once-famous composer from Dreska. He is well-known for his prodigious beginnings as a pianist and violist, having performed and composed numerous works in his early teenage years. After a great scandal, though, his reputation was irreparably soured, and losing whom he believed to be his soulmate has sent him on a path of obscurity in the modern day. He suffers from an incredibly rare disease which attacks the Soul and withers it away; very few survive past birth, and he is one of the only living survivors into adulthood. This disease makes it nearly impossible to comfortably perform typical Soul Magic, which Korevi is especially hurt over because he at one point wished to study magic in depth.
He believes that music is all he has left in life, and as the effects of Soulrot continue to dominate his life, only made worse by his mental state, he fears he may even lose that. Korevi lives in a modest home for the wealthy, supported financially by his distant father and much-closer sister, in Evelia, the capital of Dreska. He lives alone, and will only leave to go to taverns, restaurants or shops.
His birthday is the day after Iþivalia...Of course I get him double the presents.
Appearance
Korevi is a tall, lithe goat Fælen. His fur is black with white patterns across his arms and up his belly and chest; he has noticeable cheek-fluff. His hair is long and fluffy, often swished over to the side and hung past his shoulders.His horns stick out rather tall above the fluff, curved inward to points; they have a soft pinkish color. His ears are also very floppy, also drooped over his shoulder.
He most often prefers to wear tops with removeable sleeves that expose his shoulders, his favorite being a lavendar one, with matching, loose bottoms. He also typically wears his long, soft-green scarf around his neck, flaring out almost like a cape behind him.
He's a tough little thing... I've only ever seen two cases of Rot, and neither made it past the week.
Personality
Korevi has always been a very bright person, even in the face of his condition, and he tries to be as outgoing as possible, keeping any negativity to himself. He is prone to flares in his Soulrot and nightmares. He often lets the troubles brought on by his condition consume him, but he knows it is best to confide in close friends.Korevi does attempt to express himself through art, often illustrating certain dreams he remembers. It especially helps when communicating his troubles to friends, something he has gotten better at over the years. After so many years feeling rather isolated at home, he tries to have a good sense of humor over his life and the luck he's had.
Abilities
With a decaying Soul, Korevi's magical abilities began inherently limited, and they are something he has expected to struggle with for the rest of his life. Nevertheless, he's held a deep fascination for magic and has always aspired to use fire magic in the same way his father showed him as a kid. It's unknown just how powerful Korevi's Soul Magic can really be, but his friends believe that if he were to take advantage of the Aresian language, he may be able to overcome his condition after all.26 years

This is a very well written character article, good job! One question: "With a decaying Soul, Korevi's magical abilities began inherently limited, and they are something he has expected to struggle with for the rest of his life", does that mean he is not struggeling as much as he thought he would? Sounds like he has a lot of potential
Thanks a bunch! ^w^ As for your question, he has more or less accepted the fact that if he ever tries anything beyond the very very basics of magic, it's unlikely he will be able to control it. You are right about his potential though, it is something that will be expanded upon later ;3
