Hakaril James Silvar was born William Ironclad to Jameson and Katherine Ironclad in the town of Chisai Village, located near the border of Doma and Riva, not too far south from the infamous school of magic, the Gunnir Academy of Applied Magical Arts and Arcane Sciences. Around seven years later, Katherine died at the hands of a bandit attempting to rob the Ironclad household. At the age of 14, William ran away from his home with a Red Mage named Endel, changed his name to Hakaril Silvar, and began to attend the Gunnir Academy. His best friend and roommate, Masahiro Katachi, was murdered at the hands of his Mental Magic instructor, Dvinn Ka'lath, and the young wizard swore revenge. At 19, he graduated from Gunnir, achieving the rank of Archmage with a major in Holy Magic and a minor in both Elemental Studies and Conjuration. He then set off to find his place in the world through travel and exploration, which lead him to the Nekonia Kitiwai Carnival. Shortly afterward, due to his assistance with a war involving extradimensional invaders plotting the kidnapping of the Doman Queen, Hakaril received a position as General of the Doman Military Forces. While visiting a beach resort with a small group of friends, Hakaril met Sirvix, a succubus and daughter of the master demon of the underworld, and the two fell in love almost immediately. Approximately a year later, the two married, but not without a fair share of difficulties—not consenting to the marriage or concerned with the feelings of his daughter, the master demon Testicles kidnapped Sirvix and planned to impregnate her himself in order to utilize her as a vessel for the next heir to the throne. Hakaril was forced to kill his father-in-law in order to save his fiancee.

Hakaril James Silvar
(Gaera Main)
birthdate
(birthplace)
21st of Kazerora, 1291
Chisai Village
current residence Doma Castle, Doma Capitol
occupation General of Doman Military; Mage Corps Commander
family Jameson Ironclad (father), Katherine Ironclad (mother, deceased), Sirvix Silvar (wife; RPer Nekogami), Rufio Ironclad (illegitimate brother; RPer Shiranai), James Paynus Silvar (son)
race Human
physical description Roughly 5' 11", with a very wiry, thin build; reddish-brown eyes; a thin, fairly pale face; sky blue, roughly shoulder-length hair (magically dyed; natural hair color brown).
typical clothing Usually clad in a black longcoat with red hems, a green tunic, grey pants, and black leather knee-high boots; Hakaril also always wears a characteristic wide-brimmed Muskateer-style red hat with a large feather stuck in the band.
personality Hakaril's temperment can be primarily described as follows: arrogant, condescending, vengeful, quick to anger, compassionate toward his close friends, extremely overprotective, rash, impulsive if agitated, curious, logical whenever possible, courageous and strong-willed, efficient, and easily amused. Among dear allies and companions, he is friendly, jovial, and respectful—strangers, on the other hand, are subject immediately to his judgment, which is rapid and difficult to reverse. His likes and dislikes tend to be absolutes and largely inflexible. While prone to making snap decisions, Hakaril is highly intelligent and prefers to think things through—it just so happens that he arrives at an answer much earlier than most of his comrades. He tends to deal with problems in the most efficient manner possible, which leads some to question his moral code, but he belives that morality is by no means an absolute in any respect, believing that the ends often justify the means and that nothing is above the preservation of the self and those he has sworn to protect.
religious beliefs The presence of gods is undeniable when you've had conversations with them, but none in particular is worthy of his adoration. Hakaril has considered revering Ryuugami, Mithra, Kazeros, and even briefly pondered Christianity, but nothing has appealed to him yet.
drunk type Friendly; spontaneous spellcaster.
other Hakaril commonly uses the epithet "Great Lord Agnostic." Whether a deity by such a name exists or ever existed is beyond him; it's a curse he picked up from his father. He hates having his mind read without permission to the point of becoming violent in response. It is impossible to know how many strange and potentially valuable magical items he is hoarding in his office as part of a bizarre collection that continues to expand over time. He also has a very large collection of pornographic illusionmags from a variety of series that he keeps in his bottom right desk drawer, and he prefers to "read" these than do any actual paperwork under most circumstances.

Background

Hakaril James Silvar was born William Ironclad to Jameson and Katherine Ironclad in the town of Chisai Village, located near the border of Doma and Riva, not too far south from the infamous school of magic, the Gunnir Academy of Applied Magical Arts and Arcane Sciences. Around seven years later, Katherine died at the hands of a bandit attempting to rob the Ironclad household. At the age of 14, William ran away from his home with a Red Mage named Endel, changed his name to Hakaril Silvar, and began to attend the Gunnir Academy. His best friend and roommate, Masahiro Katachi, was murdered at the hands of his Mental Magic instructor, Dvinn Ka'lath, and the young wizard swore revenge. At 19, he graduated from Gunnir, achieving the rank of Archmage with a major in Holy Magic and a minor in both Elemental Studies and Conjuration. He then set off to find his place in the world through travel and exploration, which lead him to the Nekonia Kitiwai Carnival. Shortly afterward, due to his assistance with a war involving extradimensional invaders plotting the kidnapping of the Doman Queen, Hakaril received a position as General of the Doman Military Forces. While visiting a beach resort with a small group of friends, Hakaril met Sirvix, a succubus and daughter of the master demon of the underworld, and the two fell in love almost immediately. Approximately a year later, the two married, but not without a fair share of difficulties—not consenting to the marriage or concerned with the feelings of his daughter, the master demon Testicles kidnapped Sirvix and planned to impregnate her himself in order to utilize her as a vessel for the next heir to the throne. Hakaril was forced to kill his father-in-law in order to save his fiancee.

Hakaril has been involved in a fairly large number of minor and major events in Doman (and Gaeran) history, sometimes as a major player and other times behind the scenes. Numerous minor tasks and adventures have presented themselves from time to time, such as the elimination of a ravid from the Doman sewer system ("Animation Station" RP), the investigation of various murders and other guard work, the training of an apprentice (Karisuma Heru), and miscellaneous bits of planeswalking, including the discovery of a plane filled entirely with cotton and the opening of a portal to a dimension populated by metallic animals.

The Nikumian Artifacts

On one particular adventure during an attempt to hunt down the lich Xzar'il and to deal with the potential threat of his warring with another lich (A War of Two Evils RP), the paladin Squintz Altec (now Kerov Altec), Queen Aya du Mythril and Solis Darylshield found a strange piece of polished glass that refracted light oddly. Some later experimentation

While studying a set of old texts regarding legendary lost artifacts, Hakaril came across an entry about a weapon forged by the Nikumu, the god of hate, and cross-referenced it with some other writings in an attempt to pinpoint its location. The weapon in question was the Staff of Unrelenting Anger, a device designed to channel the wielder's hatred into bursts of destructive energy that could, at full power, level cities with relative ease. Curious about the item and wishing to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands, Hakaril recruited a group of adventurers to journey to the Shuman mountains in hopes of recovering the staff. Unfortunately, it turned out that Hakaril and his companions were not the only ones seeking the artifact; competition from both resident cave sahuagin and the Archmagus D'vinn Ka'lath made its acquisition extremely difficult. Hakaril saw the confrontation with D'vinn as an opportunity to exact his revenge on the drow for murdering his roommate, but Hakaril was knocked unconscious by an early attack from the mage and unable to deliver justice himself. When roused from his unconscious state, Hakaril expressed anger with his companions for not leaving the drow for him, but eventually calmed down.


Other various condensed events in Hakaril's history include his involvement in the sealing and destruction of the Triad of Hatred, a set of evil artifacts created by the god of hate, Nikumu, which allowed him to avenge Masahiro's death by killing Dvinn due to his involvement in the plot to summon the god of hate to the material plane.

Spells and Techs

    • [Innate]Incubus Morph (8 TP) - As a result of various adventures and the acquiring of a ring from his fiancee, Sirvix, Hakaril is capable of becoming an incubus. As an incubus, Hakaril possesses limited flight powers (no more than 5*level feet in terms of altitude, and no faster than 10 mph) due to his set of wings. All of Hakaril's holy based spells (the Beam line) are instead shadow based spells (the Zero line) while Hakaril is an incubus--he cannot cast the holy versions, and he cannot summon Radeeni or use any other holy based summons. Hakaril's CHA score is +3 when interacting with other demons and the like, but is -1 when interacting with those who despise demons and their kind (which is quite a few people). While an incubus, Hakaril suffers damage from holy based healing spells. Hakaril can remain an incubus indefinitely.
    • [Innate]Intimidate (2 TP) - Attempts to strike fear into an opponent with impressive looking magical acts.
    • [M-Theory=4]Charge Spell (5 TP) - Empowers a spell for a turn, increasing damage by 2x.
    • [M-Theory=6]Spell Penetration (2 TP) - Adds a bonus of rank/2 to a spellcasting roll.
    • [M-Theory=8]Quicken Spell (6 TP) - Allows Hakaril to cast a spell as a free action--the cost of this ability is added to the cost of the spell.
    • [Theory, Ritual, Melding, Enchanting=4]Enchant Blade (20 TP) - Empowers Hakaril's MageBlade. Hakaril recieves a +6/+2 AT/PA bonus, and any hits landed deal an additional 8+(mean rank) damage. This spell lasts for (mean rank)+1d4 rounds. Hakaril can use this as a permanent enchantment, but it requires 60 total TP be spent (3 times the cost), and during this time of enchanting, the weapon cannot be used or it is lost. Hakaril can do this with any bladed weapon, but no one other than himself may use it. If Hakaril enchants his weapon in this way, it only has half the bonus value of the ordinary effect--and may be stacked with it.
    • [Fire=1]Fire 1 (5 MP) - Does 10+3*rank+1d6 fire damage to one enemy.
    • [Water=1]Ice 1 (5 MP) - As fire 1, only in water damage to one enemy. * [Lightning=1]Lit 1 (5 MP) - As fire 1, only in lightning damage to one enemy.
    • [Lightning=4]Lit 2 (15 MP, narrow dispersion) - Does 18+rank*4+2d6 to one enemy.
    • [Meld=2]Lit 2 (15 MP, wide dispersion) - Does 9+2*rank+1d6 to an enemy group. * [Meld=1, Fire/Ice=1]Antipode (12 MP) - Does 10+4*(mean rank)+2d4 combination fire and ice elemental damage in a 20 foot radius around the caster. Allies may be excluded from the effect.
    • [Meld=1, Fire/Ice/Lit=1]Triad (20 MP) - Does 12+4*(mean rank)+3d4 to all enemies within a 30-foot wide burst.
    • [Holy=1]Beam 1 (7 MP) - Does 8+3*rank+1d6 holy elemental damage to one enemy.
    • [Holy=4]Beam 2 (16 MP) - As Beam 1, but does 16+rank*6+2d6 damage.
    • [Holy=6]Flash of Brilliance (14 MP) - Creates a bright flash of holy energy that stuns all who fail to resist for 1d4 rounds, in addition to blinding any of those stunned who fail a second resist roll. Creatures that are unaffected by blindness attacks are also immune to the potential stun effect.
    • [Holy=8]Disintegrate (42 MP) - This attack deals 20+rank*6+2d6 points of holy damage, but if the damage dealt is equal or greater than three-quarters of the target's remaining hit points, that target is destroyed instantly (a target with 100 remaining HP that recieves 75 or more points of damage from this spell is killed instantly, for example).
    • [Holy=10]Muted Chorus (28 MP) - Calls upon the power of a chorus of angelic voices to strike fear into an enemy. Targets who fail to resist are struck both mute and blind, and are paralyzed if they fail a second resist roll.
    • [Holy=12]Beam 3 (38 MP) - As Beam 1, but does 20+rank*8+3d6 damage.
    • [Astral=1]Astral Jolt (10 MP) - Deals 12+rank*2+1d6 damage to a single target. Check for astral drain if the spell hits--roll a d6, and on a 5 or 6, the target suffers the negative status effect "astral drain" at a level equal to 1/3 the spell's rank (round up).
    • [Astral=4]Astral Jolt 2 (18 MP) - Deals 16+rank*6+2d6 damage to a single target. Check for astral drain if the spell hits--roll a d6, and on a 5 or 6, the target suffers the negative status effect "astral drain" at a level equal to 1/3 the spell's rank (round up).
    • [Astral=4]Astral Throw (10 MP) - This ability allows the caster to forcefully move people and enchanted objects (anything with an aura), flinging them or levitating them. No more than 20*rank pounds of mass may be moved in this manner at once (the average humanoid, with gear, weighs roughly 160 pounds). Being thrown laterally deals falling damage if the target collides with an object.
    • [Astral=5]Astral Siphoning (2 MP, 4 TP) - Sucks 8+rank*2+1d6 points of MP away from a target and gives it to the caster.
    • [Astral=6]Astral Rupture (28 MP) - Deals 10+rank*3+1d6 damage to up to rank/2 targets.
    • [Astral=8]Radiant Array (26 MP) - Assails a single target with a shower of brilliant colors that can have one of several numerous effects. Roll 1d6, and determine the effect from the number rolled:
    1--Target suffers 18+rank*5+2d6 points of astral damage.
    2--Target is blinded for 1d6 rounds.
    3--Target is paralyzed.
    4--Target suffers from an Astral rank/2 level Astral Drain condition.
    5--Target suffers 14+rank*4+2d6 points of astral damage in addition to 1d6 rounds of blindness.
    6--Target is frozen solid, as though petrification (only made of ice).
    • [Astral=8]Astral Rupture 2 (56 MP) - Deals 16+rank*4+2d6 points of damage to up to rank/2 targets.
    • [Astral=10]Planar Shielding (34 MP) - Generates a wall roughly 30 feet wide and 10 feet tall of astral energy which has a small chance of disrupting any spells cast through it (spells cast through this barrier fail on a 5 or 6 rolled on 1d6). In addition, anyone attempting to walk through the wall suffers 12+rank*5+2d6 points of astral damage.
    • [Ben=1]Sharpen (8 MP) - Increases a weapon's damage by +rank for (rank) rounds. This cannot exceed +10 damage or 5 rounds.
    • [Holy=2, Ben=2]Aura (10 MP) - Increases all allies's AT/PA by +3, for (Ben. rank) turns.
    • [Summoning=1]Summon Food (4 MP) - Creates a loaf of simple brown bread. It is entirely possible to live off nothing but summoned bread for indefinite periods of time, but the bread is usually of less than superior quality and does tend to get old quickly.
    • [Summon=3, Holy=3]Radeeni (38 MP) - Hakaril summons Radeeni, who casts Beam 2 for two rounds. Use Hakaril's Holy magic rank.
    • [Summoning=5, Enchanting=3]Summon Enchanted Sword (12 MP) - Conjures up the equivalent of a +1/+1 longsword, which lasts for 3d6 hours.
    • [Summoning=6]Wisp Guardians (50 MP) - Summons a pair of Will o' Wisps to act as companions for combat or other purposes, both of which last until destroyed or dismissed by their summoner. Will o' Wisps resemble orbs of flying, glimmering light about a foot across and come in varying shades of yellow, green, white, and blue, with the last two being the most common. Each wisp has rank*8 HP, an AT/PA of 14/12, an Initiative of 8+2d6, an AC of 16, MBlock 18, a Move of 12 hexes, and deals 20+2d6 damage with a close range electrical/lightning-based attack (which hits as a physical attack with a lightning sub-element). Wisps are immune to lightning magic. Hakaril may summon additional wisps as he gains more experience--three wisps are summoned at rank 10, four at rank 16, and five at rank 22. Also, the wisps get an AT/PA bonus as Hakaril's ranks increase--at rank 10, they are 15/13, at rank 16 they are 17/14, and at rank 20, they are 19/16.
    • [Summoning=8, Astral=8]Astral Blade (24 MP) - Creates a swordlike weapon with damage 13/17/20 and AT/PA mods +2/+2 for a duration of 2d6 hours. On a successful hit with this weapon, roll 1d6--on a 5 or 6, the struck victim is inflicted with the Astral Drain status effect at a level of Astral rank/2.
    • [Summoning=12, Astral=12]Prismatic Weapon (52 MP) - Creates a weapon of the caster's choice with damage 15/19/24 and AT/PA mods +4/+2 for a duration of 2d6 hours. On a successful hit with this weapon, the affected target must resist as though being struck by a spell cast with the caster's stats and Astral Magic rank or suffer one of ten effects (roll 1d10 to determine):
    1--Target suffers 12+rank*4+2d6 points of astral damage.
    2--Target is blinded for 1d6 rounds.
    3--Target is paralyzed.
    4--Target suffers from an Astral rank/2 level Astral Drain condition.
    5--Target suffers 14+rank*4+2d6 points of astral damage in addition to 1d6 rounds of blindness.
    6--Target is frozen solid, as though petrification (only made of ice).
    7--Target ignites spontaneously, suffering 18+2d6 points of fire damage each round until they "stop, drop, and roll" or take some other action to put out the flames.
    8--Target suffers 10+rank*2+2d6 damage, which is absorbed by the weapon's wielder as HP.
    9--Target suffers 10+rank*2+2d6 damage, which is absorbed by the weapon's wielder as MP.
    10--Weapon explodes, both the wielder and the attacked target suffer 58+2d6 points of astral damage, weapon is destroyed.
    • [Summoning=12]Prismat (104 MP) - No longer usable after Prismat's death during the Malachian War. Summons Prismat, a 40 foot tall prismatic dragon, for rank/3 rounds. Each round, Prismat attacks with a breath weapon like a shower of radiant lights of varying colors, which has the effect of dealing 20+rank*8+2d6 points of astral damage to a single target (use Hakaril's Astral Magic rank). In addition to the damage, the affected target suffers one of the following effects, determined by the roll of 1d6:
    1--Target is stunned for one round (-4/-4 penalty).
    2--Target is blinded for 1d6 rounds.
    3--Target is paralyzed.
    4--Target suffers from an Astral rank/2 level Astral Drain condition.
    5--Target suffers 14+rank*4+2d6 points of astral damage in addition to 1d6 rounds of blindness.
    6--Target is crystallized, as though petrification (only made of quartz crystal).
    • [Enchanting=1]Enchant Item (X MP/round, X*5 MP/day or X*10 MP) - Imbues a nonmagical item with a magical property. This property can be any Benediction, Malediction, or similar spell known by the caster. These enchantments can be removed by means of a Dispel Magic spell or similar effect. This spell's chance of success is based on the strength of the spell to be placed on the item. Multiply the required skill ranks of the spell to enchant the item with by 3--this is the target difficulty rating. Make a spell check vs. this difficulty to determine success or failure. Enchantments can also be temporary, and the cost will be paid per round of effect or per day of effect. X is the cost of the spell being used to enchant the item. Permanent enchanting does not have to be done all at one time, but using the item in between enchanting sessions will undo all magical work put into it.
    • [Enchanting=3]Lock (8 MP) - Locks doors, gates, purses, coin pouches, zippers, buttons, hooks, fasteners, whatever, magically. This enchantment can only be dispelled by a Dispel Magic effect. Otherwise, the locked item cannot be opened. This does not stop brute force totally (i.e., a door locked in this manner could still be burned or busted down).
    • [Enchanting=4]Dispel Enchantment (10 MP) - Attempts to forcefully dispel magical enchantments of various types.
    • [Enchanting=6]Give Voice (10 MP) - When cast on an inanimate object, this spell enables it to speak, though it does not necessarily make the object intelligent (although it could).
    • [Enchanting=8]Metamorph Item (35 MP) - This spell changes an inanimate object into a different inanimate object of roughly the same size. The spell lasts for up to 24 hours, unless dispelled forcefully. Magical items retain all of their appropriate magical properties in their new form.
    • [Enchanting=8]Animate Object (24 MP) - This spell gives life to an inanimate object of a reasonable size (nothing larger than roughly the size of a car). Animated objects usually cannot speak (unless a separate spell is cast to allow them to) and are usually quite unintelligent--they have roughly the intellect of a golem, only understanding simple commands. Many animated objects can be used as sentries or for combat, and objects such as animated ropes, cords, rugs, carpets, bedsheets, etc. may make use of grappling or choking attacks as appropriate. Animated objects with wheels are able to move farther than objects without wheels in the same time period.
