Doug's Character
Concept: A human alchemist
Character Name: Keller March
Background: A tall, skinny human dressed in work clothing, seeming more a commoner than a scholar. Ink, dirt, and other substances stain his fingers and pair of glasses perch on his nose. His parents were well to do and worked for nobles as scribes and courtiers; allowing Keller the privledge to study with the best of tutors. During his student years, Keller was introduced to a Maxius Luptin, a specialist in alchemy who had settled in the city to teach. The subject fascinated the youth and he was apprenticed to Maxius in short order. In time, Keller learned all he could from his mentor and was sent out in the world to seek knowledge. During his apprenticeship, the legend of the Philospher's Stone came to his attention and Keller has made it a goal to seek out all information on such a thing. And create one if the legends are true. To this end, he seeks rare and obscure knowledge in places that are better off left unexplored...
