Battlemancer is charismatic and strong-willed, and this can be off-putting to others, causing Battlemancer to be misunderstood by those who do not know him well. POWERS & TACTICSBattlemancer, being a sorcerer growing in power, has acquired a number of spells and other magical aids in his quest for enlightment and mastery of the arcane arts.  He learned a number of spells from his former master, Malador, including the following: Zone of Dancing Idols (Animation), Icy Daggers of Ftharin (EB Cold), Incantation of Farsight (ESP), Feathers of the Great Eagle (Flight), Three Sigils of Endless Resistance (Force Field), Invocation of the Seven Gullible Glamers (Illusion), Rite of Greater Ethereal Grasp (Telekinesis), Revelations of the Unknowable (Comprehend), Keeper's Chains of Frost (Snare), and Infinite Hex of Becoming (Transform).Typically, Battlemancer will attack his foes with the Icy Daggers while in flight.  He almost always keeps his force field up unless stunned or caught unaware.  On occasion, when Battlemancer finds the right opportunity, he wields the Sword of Seven Cycles, but chooses his melee targets carefully, sometimes slowing them before moving into close range.  Snared foes are also a good target for Battlemancer's melee attacks, but he will try to combine with a melee-based ally rather than engage a foe alone.Darudin, Battlemancer's faithful ally, often finds himself in trouble, despite the sorcerer's admonitions.  In battle, Battlemancer's focus is frequently on how to keep the elf alive and perhaps not as much on his other allies.APPEARANCEBattlemancer, aka Jeremy Stratton, is 24 years old and of British descent.  He stands 5'10" and weighs 185 lbs, and he has green eyes and long, black hair.In his hero guise, Battlemancer wears a conservative green cloak and white robe beneath.  He does not have a mask, but Battlemancer makes an attempt to conceal his face when publicly fighting crime.  Battlemancer's arms and torso are covered in black and green tattoos.  This is no ordinary collection of skin art - these tattoos are of Atlantean origin, and bespeak Battlemancer's mystic training and aspirations.  The Sword of Seven Cycles is worn in a scabard on his slender black belt, and the Amulet of the Siren, which looks like a conch shell, is worn outside his robes on a necklace.  His Potions of Titanic Might are found near his sword on the belt.</blockquote>
