F'reya Falh
The Wizard Prince
Character
I spent three nights painstakingly watching a group of Cactuar, trying to develop my latest spell. In many ways the Cactuar is an overlooked species, known mostly for sticking you with prickly needles if you dare to get to close.You see magic isn't about this school or style, it's about innovating. It's about bending the rules of the world and making something totally unique. To really be a true wizard you need to look for magic everywhere, you need to not limit yourself. Then you need to sprinkle in some fun, and some wonder. Use the magic to make the world a little more special, a little more exciting.Which...brings me back to the Cactuar. To me I see them and I see an ultimate defense, a defense that could be made into a spell that would stop even the toughest Steppe warrior in their tracks. A thousand needles blasted out at your opponents from all directions in less than an instant. An unstoppable force of nature inspired by such a simple creature. I intend to create that spell. Then I intend to find every other mystery this Star has to offer and make the greatest spellbook the world has ever seen.

Aether PetalInside this ornate bottle is a muddy sludge with some shocking aetheric properties. Apply a small amount to the wrists and rub them together. Once activated the aether petal will activate a person’s natural aether to create a pleasant smell that matches the essence of their soul. From the smells of flowers on a desert breeze, to warm marshmallows on a summer night, there’s no telling what your scent might be!Warning: Those with aetheric anomalies, illnesses, or dark souls may find the results to be wholly unappealing.
Infinite Prismaa CubeA cube within a cube within a cube sits in front of you.

Something about it is comforting. It makes you feel like everything is going to be ok. You like this cube.Warning: Hail Prismaa
