**Stargaze** is the seventh Great Sage of Miitopia, aiding Violet in her task to defeat Dark Lord Mapleshade. He is a main character and protagonist of Violetsbane, having his own separate journey from Violet's. In *The Phantom Calling*, he serves as a minor character during Dragonwood and is one of the prologue's point-of-views.

## Appearance

Stargaze is rather short for his age, being 4'10 at the age of 20. He has dark skin, having freckles marked on his cheeks. His hair is usually undone and messy, as he doesn't particularly do it himself - though of course, it is hard to tell due to his hair being a deep black. He has pale silver eyes.

He is usually seen wearing the Great Sage's robes, as it is the most comfortable thing he owns (and the only clothing he owns). However, on occasion he wears some of the robes and vestments from the Mage and Cleric lines, respectively.

## Personality

Despite being the revered 'kind' and 'wise' Great Sage, Stargaze usually acts anything but. He's a stubborn Mii, and refuses to back down in an argument as shown in his fight with Holly back in *The First Companion*. He has a barbed tongue, being unafraid to throw an insult towards most people. Stargaze also is rather rash, and along with his stubborn nature, it causes him to get into situations that would have been completely unavoided had he held his tongue. Not to mention that as he's a Great Sage, he receives visions of the possible future - this causes him to be uneasy around certain people, as well as making him incredibly hesitant to take certain actions, such as around Silverfire. However, he's not completely terrible - he's rather caring about those he's close to, though he can be a touch overprotective at times and shows it in his own way.

## Relationships

### Columbia

Meeting each other on complete accident in Greenhorne, Stargaze and Columbia's friendship with one another was beginning to set sail. Despite Stargaze's stubborn nature, they manage to get along fairly well - though there are the minor arguments that they have from time to time. He enjoys her presence, and gets understandably concerned when he notices her in a dark mood. However, he does enjoy gently teasing her, especially when she playfully teases him back. Stargaze has also thought that Columbia's complaining about traveling is amusing to listen to, and will occasionally let her speak endlessly to get a laugh out of it.

### Ex-Great Sage Rakim

Stargaze hates Rakim's guts for making his life miserable by forcing him to become the Great Sage. (WIP)

> "*Then maybe you should've been more careful with your drink! I don't tend to the selfish desires of those who can't tell from common sense and their own stupidity.*"

> "*You, clean up your act and you might actually be happy for once, instead of what you are now. Just some advice for you: when you hear that voice calling your name, actually respond, it'll make the struggle against the Dark Lord much easier. But then again, if you prefer listening to that small noggin of yours instead of the advice of a Great Sage, then by all means, go ahead.*"

> "*Even though beggars can't be choosers, I guess this means that you're the chosen hero to save Miitopia, like what my visions have been unfortunately telling me. However, I do sense a strange power within you. It isn't very much at the moment, obviously, but if you continue your journey, it'll grow as you do. So just actually try. You don't even have to make that much of an effort.*"

> "*I wouldn't say I was whining, but yes. [...] Still, though. Just how did it get here, of all places? Didn't she have it around her neck as well? I'd find it pretty hard to lose if so. Think she got irritated with the guardian spirit and threw the charm away?*"
