Ulf

Ulf is a human researcher at the Tolarian Academy of Lat-Nam.
==Description==
Ulf is a determined but uncertain young man, striving to become a mage despite his lack of natural talent. He is introspective and humble, recognizing his limitations in practical magic and rune work. Despite struggling with his studies and being more adept at research than magic, Ulf shows quiet resilience and a willingness to do whatever it takes, even taking on menial tasks like mucking out stables. His stubbornness and deep-seated desire to prove himself set him apart, driving him to continue his studies and fulfill his dream of becoming a mage, despite the odds stacked against him.
==History==
Ulf's journey to becoming a mage at the Tolarian Academy was fraught with challenges and danger. Though eager to learn magic, he struggled with practical applications, excelling more in research than spellcraft. He stayed under the radar, performing menial tasks like mucking out stables, while dedicating himself to his studies.
This changed when a dwarven artificer, Docent Thranegeld, tasked Ulf with a special research project on Corondor. Ulf discovered an ancient, forgotten tome that detailed the curse of Sol'Kanar, the Demon King of Corondor, and ways it could potentially be broken. This find put Ulf in danger, as it attracted the attention of Phyrexian agents — evil beings who sought to control the world.
After Ulf's roommates and Thranegeld were murdered, he realized the gravity of his situation. He sought help from another docent, Silas Brotten, who turned out to be a Phyrexian in disguise. Ulf narrowly escaped with the book, aided by a viashino and a grizzled man who turned out to be a legendary figure from Corondor's past - the planeswalker Jared Carthalion. Jared helped Ulf avoid capture by removing a tracking device and urged him to escape the academy with the book, which held significant and dangerous knowledge. This journey marked the beginning of Ulf's deeper involvement in the perilous conflict against the Phyrexians and the retaking of Corondor.
