SKILLS & ABILITIES

Khadgar possesses all the talent you'd expect of an extremely powerful mage, though a lot of his skills are currently rusty or untrained - he can do much, but it's raw power currently. He can cast magic in all the schools, and has been known to cast them all at once to create even more powerful spells, but again - this is a bit unpredictable due to it being raw talent with only some training. Back home these schools were arcane [his preferred], fire, and frost. Since coming to Nevermore he's studied the various elemental magics and has found he still has a strong preference for fire and water, but also likes air magick. He has a great deal more energy than most would expect - he appears old but moves as a man of his actual age, and has the energy for spells from practice, and talent. He does have the ability to shapeshift into a raven, though he very rarely, if ever uses it - Medivh taught it to him so they could travel easily together.

Khadgar is a scholar first and foremost. He adores learning about new things and will always do what he can to further his knowledge and understanding. Back home this focus was mostly spent on finding ways to thwart [and hopefully stop] the Legion and all the other enemies they faced. He is wise beyond his short years, and has a great deal of knowledge from studying under Medivh, which only makes him that much more formidable a foe.

Despite his youth, he is a good leader, and knows how to inspire those under his command. He is good at delegating and also figuring out what each person is best at, utilizing their individual strengths and avoiding their weaknesses. He is also very, very good at getting secrets out of people and putting all the pieces of a puzzle together, which has often let him figure out things carefully hidden. These were all skills he learned from Medivh and his two friends - Llane and Anduin.

While he's not accepted the responsibilities officially, his abilities are actually that of a Guardian, as this was passed on to him when he was cursed with great age [explored in the history further down]. The only thing that actually keeps him from fully being a guardian is acknowledging it and fully taking command of those responsibilities publicly - only then would his full powers and abilities become available. As it is, he is far stronger than most magick users back home [and likely in Nevermore as well], because of this.

WEAKNESSES

Khadgar cannot wear heavier armor as it inhibits his ability to cast spells and can actually dampen their potency. While he does have some leather and even chain on his robes, enchanted cloth makes up the majority of them. Wearing cloth leaves him more vulnerable to attack, even when it has magical properties.

He is extremely kind, and this can get him in trouble as he wants to help people, and will sometimes get into trouble trying to do what he feels is right. He can be rather foolhardy sometimes, in that he's always willing to take a risk with extremely powerful magic to get things done or go for a more risky route if the payoff seems worth it - and this doesn't always work in his favor.

While he is an extremely powerful mage, this magic can be turned against him if one knows how to manipulate magic. He does rely on his magic to do many things and without it he's not nearly as formidable. That's not to say he's easily beaten - far from it - but the majority of his powers are magical in nature.

Khadgar has been cursed with old age far before his time. He was a boy of 17 when his former master turned a spell on him and aged him prematurely. At first this cursed his body fully, not just his appearance and even took his magic from him for a time. He has regained his magic now, however, and has also regained much of his vitality, regardless of his appearance.

His magic, while returned, is very different than what he had before it was stolen from him. He was powerful to start, one of the reasons he was sent to study under Medivh, but now he's had the powers of the Guardian transferred to him. This huge amount of power is overwhelming to him at times and he's actually afraid of it, though he hides that well. Currently he is struggling a great deal with knowing what he can and can't do due to the massive increase in abilities and power.

Appearance

Khadgar appears far older than he is. His features are those of a man in his mid sixties, though he does appear younger when freshly shaved - the beard adds a good 10 years when he wears it. He has rounder features and a strong jaw that is usually covered in a day [or more] of stubble even once he does shave. He has sharp blue eyes that reveal his true age, though they have seen more than a lifetime of suffering. His hair is longer and worn loose, but will eventually be short, slicked back. It's a pale grey in color.

For clothing, Khadgar prefers robes that are mostly cloth, but have leather and chain bits to them that are enchanted with various spells so as to be useful to him. His robes are mostly blues, whites, and browns. He wears riding boots, as they are more comfortable in his opinion.

He moves with the vitality of his actual age, rather than how he appears. He moves with confidence when in his element, always purposeful in his steps. His voice is a slightly rough higher baritone, and he speaks with authority.

PERSONALITY

Khadgar is a gigantic nerd and a bit of a packrat. He is extremely dedicated to the study of arcane and other magicks and that's not changed in Nevermore. He likes to try new things and will experiment a lot, mostly on himself but sometimes on willing test subjects. He has a passion for knowledge and helping others, and feels the same responsibility for Nevermore as he did for Azeroth. Part of him fears that the Legion or other foes [the orcs] will be able to find their way through to this realm as well, and he frets about what has happened back home.

He has a good sense of humor and knows when to laugh, though he can grow tired of those eternal jokers who don't know when to be serious. He enjoys food and good company, and wine is something he's discovered he likes. A book and wine is his idea of a good evening.

He feels things very deeply but doesn't let really anyone close enough to be able to help support him when he needs it. He often carries the weight of the world on his shoulders, and there are times it almost feels crushing. Despite this, he's reluctant to let others fully in after what happened with his former master Medivh. Trust can be earned, and he will place what trust he does give in heroes who prove themselves capable, but it's rare he'll let them closer than allies. Those who are lucky enough to earn his friendship can count on a fast friend who will do everything in his power to help them and will expect the same in return. He doesn't halfass things, not even friendship.

He is a teen boy though, and despite all of the above, he can be flustered and stumble over himself in some situations, and that only further embarrasses him when it happens.

Enemies are those who would harm him and those he seeks to protect, as well as those who would try to take the freedom and lives of anyone innocent. He is firmly against evil and once someone's proven to be evil it will take time and effort to undo any mistrust they earn should they eventually come around. He will use his full powers to oppose those who he feels are wrong. Those who are not evil but have earned his distrust or who have never even attempted to gain his trust are treated cautiously, with guarded optimism - some don't like this and have taken a dislike of him based on that alone.

Anyone looking for love should look elsewhere. Khadgar is a very focused man, determined to learn all he can about magic and protecting the world he now calls home. He is also very guarded due to his past. While he does not believe it was returned, he developed feelings for Medivh while serving as his apprentice. The revelation about his mentor, and the man he loved, what he had to do to stop him, and what was in turn done to him have left him scarred and he uses his studies and dedication to protecting others to guard his heart. He also feels that being aged as he is, no one will be able to find him attractive, and this has left him depressed and lonely.

About

Khadgar started out life as a promising young mage. With his gifts manifesting at a young age, he was quickly taken under a mentor's wing. He flourished under the Kirin Tor's guidance and was well known for preferring to spend all his free time reading and experimenting with his magic. He would often sneak into the libraries and even forbidden areas to glean more knowledge. Eventually it was decided that he would go apprentice under Medivh.

While he was apprehensive, he was also excited to get to learn under the reclusive but brilliant mage. When he first arrived, he was treated with distrust and given minor tasks to keep him out of Medivh's hair, but eventually he earned his master's trust and the two became extremely close. It was during this time that his feelings for his master turned from admiration to something far deeper, but also inappropriate - and he never spoke of or acted on them.

He eventually discovered that his master was a Guardian of Tirisfal, but also soon noticed that something seemed very off about Medivh. Eventually he managed to unravel the plot to open the Dark Portal and warned the king of Stormwind of the plot. When he returned with backup and fought with his master, he was successful in defeating the man, but at a great cost - his own life was sapped from him and he was cursed with age and the loss of his own magical abilities.

Without his abilities, and cursed with old age and frailty, he could do little to help in the wars that followed, and was forced to flee Stormwind when it fell. Over time he discovered his magic returning - and then some. With far more energy and his vitality restored, though not his appearance, he came to realize that while he had been cursed by Sargeras [in control of Medivh's body], he had also had the powers of a Guardian passed to him, though he had not publicly taken the title and responsibility [and never would, for fear of being corrupted himself].

While on his way to help some of his allies, he encountered a rift and stumbled through. He's not been in Nevermore long at all, and is extremely confused and guarded while he tries to sort through everything.
