Kelso the Battlemage

Full Name and Title:

Kelso of Dundee, Battlemage of Guild Rivercats, Black Rank

Species: Human (cat curse)

Age:

Height: 5'9" (5'7" curse)

Eyes: Green

Description: (human) Human male. Medium build, fit and rather lean, with the tanned skin of someone who partly works outdoors. Sharp, green eyes framed by blonde hair of moderate length. The emblem of the Rivercats mage guild is tattooed on the back of his left hand.

(Cat) Anthropomorphic Tay River Cat female. Fit and lean, but with feminine curves and moderately-sized breasts. Covered in pure white fur, with a slightly fluffy tail. Long mane of white hair frames sharp, green eyes. The emblem of the Rivercats mage guild shows through the fur on the back of her left hand.

Long hair carries over from cursed form when the effect wears off.

Clothing: Loose work shirt in the medieval style, tucked into a black and grey kilt. Feet clad in cuffed, knee-length leather boots. A leather bandoleer/baldric and belt worn under a light, black overcoat completes Kelso's usual outfit, with a plain, but well-made dagger attached to the belt on the left. When he carries Gaster's Dilemma, it is on his right side, either hung from his belt, or in-hand, if he is expecting trouble.

Guild Rivercats Emblem:

The emblem of the Rivercats mage guild is a stylized side-view silhouette of a roaring cat's head, fangs exposed. Kelso's emblem is located on the back of his left hand, though the location of an individual mage's guild emblem is dictated by personal choice. The emblem on Kelso's hand is black, indicating that in the accepted ranking system used in the Midlands region, he has attained the second-highest rank that a mage may reach. Mage guilds in the Midlands often rank their mages based on their own sets of criteria, resulting in some discrepancies between skill and power of mages of the same rank from different guilds. The Rivercats have a reputation of performing above their indicated rank, due to stricter advancement criteria, but a Black mage of any clan is sure to be powerful.

Gaster's Dilemma:

An anachronistic Miao Dao sword, this magic weapon somewhat resembles an oversized katana with a wood grip. The grip is fashioned of two pieces of ebony wood, fastened to the tang with three golden rivets. The pommel and guard are both the color of gold. The blade of the sword is shot through with an angular fractal pattern in gold. The scabbard is generally well-made and usually black, but always plain.
