He turns his attention to Caramip as she inquires as to his vocation of magic. "Come to think of it, Felix, what exactly is the path that you follow? Wizardry, sorcery, or something else?" Felix smiles, used to his mannerisms and styles often leaving his particular brand of magic a mystery. "You may be surprised to find out, Caramip, that I actually follow the Divine path. I am not in fact an Arcanist, although I do share their penchant for knowledge and study. I draw my powers from the divine energies that permeate the cosmos - in essence, whereas you and other Arcanists conjure your power from tomes or inborn power, I borrow mine from greater beings. Many draw their powers from gods and the like, but I specifically choose to tap The Planes themselves in order to fuel my magic."Having felt that he has answered Caramip's inquiry in a satisfactory fashion, he turns his attention to Jenna. "Your a summoner, right Felix? That sounds interesting. I'll bet you meet all types of interesting creatures that way. You probably don't even have to leave home to do it! Does your field prevent you from having charming ravens to keep you company and steal your food?" He nods, delighted by her interest in his workings. "Yes, I am indeed a summoner, Jenna, though I do dabble a bit in the schools of Enchantment and Divination, just to keep myself well-rounded, you see? You could describe the creatures I work with as interesting - in fact, I'd wager that many of them are like nothing you've ever seen before." He gives a knowing look to her. "But, then again, I might be wrong - I'm positive that you've faced off against more than your fair share of beasts. Still, if you are interested, I would be more than happy to give a demonstration sometime. I doubt that you would be interested in my particular line of study, but I'm sure that you would be interested in studying the combat abilities of extraplanar beings. You never know when you might be face to face with such a creature..." Felix gives a long, thoughtful glance at the birds perched around the table. "As for an avian companion, I've never really felt the urge to seek out such a cohort. Granted, the beasts that I summon are by any means undesirable company, but I often see silence and solitude as an opportunity to be taken advantage of, rather than a space to be filled."Felix had previously taken little notice of the mention of Roxanne's little "trick", but after a few seconds' pause, he looks over to her, a faint gleam in his eyes. "Now, now, don't sell yourself short, Roxanne! The summoning of a weapon is quite a feat, indeed! Why, I have difficulty remembering anybody who knew such magic... I would be MOST interested in you demonstrating it to me sometime. Perhaps you could teach me such a spell? I would rather dislike being confronted by some threat with no backup present." Even as he speaks, his mind is clicking away, observing her expression, tone of voice, and examining her speech. She's hiding something - but what? This one interests me - why would she be nervous about her own magical abilities amongst these Arcanists? That same gleam shoots across his eyes again. Much remains to be seen, Roxanne. I feel as if we shall get to know each other well.</blockquote>
