> Ugly, bent-backed, and irritable, Visioturpis is Hibernia’s oldest Quaesitor.
His name is a combination of the Latin words visio (face) and turpis (ugly).
Scars run down both sides of his long face, and his lank, greasy hair hangs
in strands.
Cursed with Painful Magic, Visioturpis is reluctant to cast spells.
He prefers a single, powerful spell over several minor spells, even though
such spells overwhelm Visioturpis with information.
With such encompassing magic, the details can
often get lost in the wash of information.
Visioturpis has changed his decisions in the past, when his initial information
was later proven wrong.
He is not stupid enough to adhere to a bad decision, but
he has a long memory and dislikes being proven wrong.
**Roleplaying**
+ Grumpy and cynical, but fair
+ If there is no damage, there is no case.
> What do you mean? You cannot stand up to a hedge wizard in a fight?
# Stance on the Code
+ Yes, the Order protects the land, but were the hedge wizards any threat to
any magic resources?
+ We don't restrict others just to restrict them. Why would we?
+ Unprovoked attack is an offense. Damage would have to be compensated.
+ If there is no damage, there is no case.
+ Offensive attacks must be proportional to the threat.
