====== Xavier Octavio Sarmandastra/ Dragonslayer the Pivot of the World (deceased)======
===== Background/Bio =====

Formerly a philosophy student at the College of the Stars, Xavier (originally enrolled under the name Timothy Jones) developed a solipsistic attitude whilst attempting to complete his doctoral thesis on the nature of the Upheaval. He was promptly expelled after attempting to submit the highly heretical article "The Founders of Acryn: A discourse on the effect of mass delusion on the human psyche" for publication and only barely escaped being lynched by a group of angry Warrior priests. His philosophy derives mostly from the fact that not only was the world radically altered during the Upheaval but in fact it may have come in to existence then, with all memories of a time prior to that having been created at the same time. From studying his own nascent ability to manipulate the world around him he has deduced that the world, and all the people therein, may in fact be merely a manifestation of his own psyche. He claims his recent foray in to adventuring is an attempt to learn more of himself. 

After a mostly disastrous religious mission, the wayfinder's Guild has assigned him a tutor in etiquette in order to work on his "interacting with other human being skills".

Xavier's arm is now shattered and fused with his mace. Xavier should not to listen to [[user:swampselkie:pc:senta_fernbach|Senta]], Senta has bad ideas.

Xavier appears to have, perhaps not entirely intentionally, started to become a god. He has asked the advice of both Jimmy Hoskins and the Rampant about what he should do about this and received conflicting answers.

Finding himself coming under the sway of the evil magic sword, Dragonslayer, Xavier ascended to become a being of flux, divinty and magic. He was last noted heading in to the realm of Skira.

=====Familiar: Blob Dog=====

Arcane Familiar - Your familiar aids you in your arcane arts and reduces the mana cost of a ritual by 1 OR may be used as a conduit to deliver a ritual effect, although the familiar must stay within 3 meters of the target for the full duration of the ritual in order to be used in this manner.

=====Resources=====
Council Contractor: Philosophical Debating Club (Effective benefits: contacts Peoples College and True Council- in particular Willie Alteri)\\
Xavier set up the debating club in order to espouse his solipsistic philosophy, in particular that any one person could be imagining all of reality (although as far as Xavier is concerned this is him). In order to understand the philosophy participants are encouraged to exert their will on the world, which in practice means it has become a haven for muggers, fences, thieves and struggling students. With word having spread it has more recently attracted the occassional Council member, being frequented in particular one by one alcoholic who uses it as a sounding board for his worries.

Arcane Library: Effective benefits: extremely well read, journeyman knowledge, minor ritualist: fracturing
