Ontos is a wizard which is a form of a spellcaster who learned the art of arcane magic through research and learning. What he lacked in combat prowess and armor he made up with a broad range of magical spells and abilities learned through years of practice and training. Through his spellcasting ability, Ontos could control the battlefield, using spells that affected wide areas, often hindering enemies, while also learning to use powerful rituals of arcane power.
Ontos has a wide variety of powers called spells available to him, fueled by the arcane energy of the universe. The most basic spells available to wizards are known as cantrips and required little skill in order for them to be cast. Such spells were typically small tricks of magic such as creating a light source, a sound, or moving a small object telekinetically.Ontos is also skilled in the use of rituals, powerful spells that require a significant amount of time and energy to cast, thereby making them impractical in battle but immensely useful in non-combat applications.
As with his daily spells (spells which a wizard can only master once per day), he kept these rituals written in a spellbook, where each ritual took up at least a page, with complexity and page length directly proportional to the power inherent in a ritual.
The major piece of clothing is his forest green cloak, dyed from leaves from his home. It is able to camouflage with almost any piece of greenery. A light undershirt and leather chest piece, as well as travelling trousers and boots are his outfit. His belt holds some straps and pouches for supplies.
Wizards make use of orbs, staffs, and wands to help channel and direct their arcane powers. These implements concentrated the arcane power in a spell, increasing its effectiveness. Every wizard has mastery of one type of implement. Ontos carries his quartestaff, carved by his grandfather, constantly. He rarely puts it down. His weapons, some strapped to his back and others in his belt, are a sabre, crossbow and claymore.
Mental characteristics
Ontos was born in the wood elf area, living secluded from the rest of the world. He grew up relatively loved by his family and community, however there was some slight resentment due to his human heritage. This only grew once his sibling disappeared without a trace. The elves deemed him and his family to be cursed and exiled them to a nearby human village, where Ontos was taught the mystical art and how to be a wizard by his grandfather.
Desperate to prove himself to his childhood community, he joined the Arcane Order in their quest for blood purity and preservation of divine magic. However, once partaking in his first mission he was confronted by his grandfather, and condemned for his actions. He found his grandfather gravely injured in the remains of a village burnt down by elves, and as his grandfather died, he renounced him as his blood. Ashamed and deeply hurt, Ontos defected from the Arcane Order and has devoted his life to finding his missing sibling, in hopes that it will be the key to end the hostility between the races.
Ontos was taught by his grandfather the way of the arcane arts. He is extremely articulate and well read. known for tearing through books throughout his childhood.
Ontos was initially employed by the Arcane Order, but later defected after learning of their true intentions. He is currently a teacher in a local village, sharing the knowledge of magic and being a wizard that his grandfather passed onto him.

Ontos would risk the world and even his own life to save his friends and family. He sometimes saves strangers or enemies simply because he empathizes with them.
