Aethereological Anomaly

^{There's something peculiar about his aether. There's a duality of it which grabs attention and might be unsettling for the untrained. For those with the skill of an apprentice Mage, the aberration could go unnoticed as nothing more than a passing curiosity. However, for a Mage of long-lived study, one may notice that something is inherently wrong about him. Something that sends chills within you, not from fear, but from the weight of that which contradicts all you know of nature.}

Familiar I: Mister

^{The blustering bird, Mister, his Chocobo Companion, is a loud and spirited animal with a mind of its own. Quick to pass judgement, it will scowl at you with a surprising sentience behind its furrowed brow as it decides which eye to peck at. Or maybe it just really wants that bit of crumb in your beard. Don't flinch!}

Courier

^{M.R. Rhotano, the realms most famously infamous unknown merchant and entrepreneur, uses Sterne to track the untraceable and impeach the unimpeachable. When not out on assignment for his patron, Sterne can be found in the Rhotano Musem (The RhoMu), either busy among the bustle, or in the quiet afterhours trying his best to be as unknowable as Rhotano themself.}

Familiar II: Sentient Notebook

^{An unassuming book is always in Sterne's possession - until it decides otherwise! This magicked tome has a mind of its own. It may twitch nervously as it tries to hide from you or, emboldened on a whim, it will stand up and march towards you with a quill in its spine inviting you to write upon its blank pages. Magically it can recreate any document, note, ledger or passing sign its holder encounters; duplicated and forever bound among its infinite pages.}
