### Biography

A great and powerful sorcerer, second to none, who watches over the balance between light and darkness and dwells inside the Tower of Mysteries within the World of Dreams. He was also teacher of NiGHTS who is his recent apprentice. He tutored the NiGHTS in magic.

Master Jolnir was the first to detect something amiss with the worlds, and alerted Master Eraqus as soon as he could.

He is concerned about his apprentice, NiGHTS, who has run off.

It was also he who delivered to Aqua the news of Master Eraqus's demise at the hands of Terra and Master Xehanort.

From conjuring up skies full of beautiful butterflies to parting an ocean, Master Jolnir's feats of wizardry are...well, amazing. His name alone fills some folks with awe.

Master Jolnir shared some of his wisdom with Sora and his friends. He also taught them some valuable techniques to help prepare them for what they'll face on this new quest.

With a new threat looming ever closer, he has decided Sora and Riku must be examined for the Mark of Mastery.

## Personality

While little is known about his life as a Keyblade Master, the elderly sorcerer is shown to be a rather stern man. In almost every instance, he is shown to be petting his beard. But beneath his harsh exterior belies a man who strongly believes in his apprentices no matter how much mischief they may get up to, demonstrated by when he expresses stressing sigh for NiGHTS running off with the Star Shard and recklessly getting lost with it, but then forgives NiGHTS and awards him the title of Master with an encouraging smile.

Given his past status as a Keyblade Master, he is shown to have great knowledge about the properties of the Heart, the Heartless, the Nobodies and the Unversed. It is he who explains the nature of the Nobodies to Sora, Mario and Sonic, and also tells them that as long as darkness exists in one heart, the Heartless will never cease to exist. So powerful and wise he is, that even Terra, Aqua, and Ventus speak to him with utmost respect, despite him not being their master. However, NiGHTS merely refers to him as "Pops" instead of calling him "Master Jolnir", possibly because NiGHTS, like Master Eraqus before him, is also a Keyblade Master.

## Powers and Abilities

### Abilities

Master Jolnir is a master of the magical arts, able to perform powerful magic spells comparable to Merlin's. He has shown the ability to teleport, create illusions while training NiGHTS, and create cosmic smoke to locate a person. He seeks counsel with the stars to predict the conditions of the past, the present and the future, which allows him to gather information about the worlds' condition and to pass it on to his allies.

As a retired Keyblade Master, he presumably stills retains the power to use the Keyblade, but never used it since he had taken his leave.
