These notes are from an early chat. Please review, Cal

He is born with the name Robert Borden.

He born into a Mercere family in an English city, where he attended to a university, and he was quite talented, but unpopular. He did not like academy because he wished for more friends, but reading books was a kind of exploration, which he liked. His father was a traveling Gifted Mercere, who had some questionable corpus and vim experiences in life, he was dead or twilighted at this point.

Robert later worked as a teacher, which he did not like, he tried to improve his pupils, but they were always unruly and frustrating.

A maga who wished to learn some academics discovered him quite late in life, having the gift, and being from a Mercere family. He was very old for an Apprentice, but had more academic knowledge than most hermetics, so he worthed to teach. He was properly teached by a Mercere, and introduced into Mercurian ways, because his knowledge best could be utilizied in rituals.

He really likes magic, traveling and business and have little intention of teaching again. He is young and adventurous, but a bit slow in everything. Maybe his body ages slowly because it is slowed down some way. He just say he is patient.

He learned magics which he found the most wonderful. Traveling in instant speeds, skipping boring endless woodlands and ship routes. Healing people like a miraculous saint would.

He stopped aging at the age of 30, but he has no longevity ritual. He likes helping people, even when it is just his impression they need help. He also like having a good deal and some profit during the process.

He is curious about his past, and his father but he has no extensive daddy issues, it is just curiosity and a bit of sense in duty towards family.

I wonder if he could have two or three families, here and there, and maybe properly married a maga, maybe the one discovered him.
