Theo Fumis

Theo Fumis Volume 1 Cover

**Theo Fumis** is the protagonist of the Magus of the Library series. He is a trainee Kafna from the village Amun.

## Appearance

He is a mix between Hyron and Haupi characterized by his blond hair and pointed ears. He is quite slender and muscular for his age.

## Personality

Though raised in the slums of his village Amun, he balanced a life of study and work to train in preparation for the kafna exam. His greatest strengths are his stamina and physical constitution, honed over years of labor at Gannan Masonry, and greatly enhanced by his water magic, and high levels of mana from studying under the Amun sacred tree in the forest near the village.

He lacks a bit a self-confidence, and makes himself look menacing and big at times, but it's just a facade. He is a very passionate and curious about books, but needs a bit of discipline. He is the definition of a diamond in the rough.

## Powers and Abilities

Having been raised in a rural area, spending hours walking and studying in the nearby forest, and under the village sacred tree (all of which allows for greater mana absorption), has given Theo extremely high levels of mana and therefore magical ability, enabling him to perform strength enhancement magic without even realizing. He does so through water magic, enhancing and strengthening his whole body by sending mana throughout it. He began doing so after some time working at the village masonry toughening his body and mind, and giving him superhuman strength, enough to easily lift and run at high speed with several beams of lumber through the forest to the masonry (a several hour walk for others), outperform all of his classmates in their physical exams with absolute ease (while holding back greatly) and stop the fall of the stone statue of the continent’s hero with difficulty.

His heightened stamina also enables him to focus and study for much longer than most, aiding him well in the kafna exam, where many of the participants are greatly sleep deprived from the length and difficulty of the exam questions.

His time in the forest also allowed him to befriend many of the animals there and seemingly understand animals through observation. He also really likes animals in general.

## Plot

### Amun Village Arc

Born a mix of Hyron and Haupi, he was always bullied in his childhood due to his appearance of blond hair, long pointed ears, and pale skin. His love for reading made him continually sneak secretly into The Amun Library resulting into him getting banished by Ossei Menes. He lives in the slums with his elder sister Tifa Fumis, who is determined to work hard in order for him to go to school. He usually talks to the wild animals in the forest, and he expresses his dream of going to Aftzaak to them. Ossei Menes daughter, Sakiya Menes, admired his persistence and love of reading,

One day, a group of Kafna; consisting of Anzu Kavishmaf, Nanako Wattle, Sedona Bleu, and Pipiri Pilberry arrived at Amun in order to recover a certain Grimoire that seemed to emanate constant faint light. Theo was wandering around when he saw a book near the Kafna's horse and proceeded to read it. He was so absorbed by it, prompted his tears before getting called out by Pipiri. The book was Sedona's favorite and she thought that it was fate that brings the book into the young boy hands.

With the sudden sickness of his sister, he asked for Sedona's help and after curing her, she helped him regain acess to The Amun Library, and lent him the special book, which was taken by Ossei Menes, thinking that it was one of the library's book. Grievously regretting how careless he is on top of the mountain, he noticed that the library is on fire and fearing that Sedona's book would be burned, he bravely went straight into the burned building with Kukuo, his best animal friend who is apparently a sacred beast. He managed to save the book and Ossei Menes, while the Kafna succesfully restored the Grimoire back to normal.

When the Kafna were about to leave, he rushed through the city in order to return the book that Sedona has lent him and without realizing awakened his mana power trying to get through his bullies. He managed to reach Sedona, who refuse to receive the book, taught him the importance of texts and promised to meet him again someday in the future.

7 years later, he embarks his journey to become a Kafka.
