## Description

### Appearance

Aldoras is meek in appearance and speech. He often wears spectacles and clothes befitting a wizard student.

### Personality

Aldoras is a diligent student obsessed with rules, protocol, and above all: magic. He idolizes the staff, professors, lunch menu, and teachings of the Exodus Academy, believing that every action they take is justified, even as his friends grow suspicious over the increasingly obvious hostile atmosphere and disappearances that happen under their watch. He would defend the Academy to the point of near contradiction of his own beliefs. This love also feeds into his self-esteem, believing that he truly belongs among the Academy's staff in the future.

He appreciates all forms of magic, except for Necromancy, which he disparages as illegal and immoral, pushing his beliefs onto others and scolding his friends on what he believes is right. This often leads to nonstop arguments, especially with Tremmer.

Aldoras speaks in a monotone, almost never raising his voice, except when it comes to speaking ill of his close held beliefs. When he does so, it is considered an 'emotional outburst'. Aldoras has trouble with humor, often taking jokes and metaphors literally. These traits are shared with his father, a hint of where he inherited it.

Though he dislikes brashness and anti-intellectual behavior, he comes to appreciate his friend's assertive nature, even changing his feelings about Necromancy, after his ordeals at the Academy.

## History

### Background

A studious young Wizard of the Order of Scribes, Aldoras' immense thirst for knowledge was nearly unmatched - unfortunately, his social skills were not nearly as trained as his intellect. Still, he found a close-knit group of friends alongside his fellow students.
