Frederik Vahlen \u2013 Professor of Progress<\/h2>\n

Frederik was among those closest to Bastian the Everknowing, and became infected with the same Dragonblight strain that touched his friend. Yet both put their bodies into a form of stasis that would prevent the diseases spread, yet it did not shield their minds. Dissonant whispers filled Frederik\u2019s head from that day onward, and the whispers have never stopped. He knows now that Bastian\u2019s goal was noble, and just, but his methods were foolish. He hopes that he can perhaps continue his late friend\u2019s research, but in a manner that is less devastating to the world.<\/p>\n

The Head of House Aurveil, Frederik Vahlen is regarded among both faculty and students as a brilliant man, who suffered a great deal when Dragonblight took hold of the city of Canos. Bastian was known to be Frederik\u2019s close friend and confidant, and many thought that it was a blow to Frederik for his friend to betray him in such a manner. Indeed, at the time Frederik did feel betrayal, and still feels it through the body that he lost to the disease.<\/p>\n

Yet, two years on, the Dragonblight stays in stasis upon his body, with Frederik unsure what might happen to him should he bring it from stasis. The tissue in others died off when Hendrak was destroyed, but from his own research, it seems that it may have mutated, operating without a hivemind to control its whims. In secret, he has used this stasis induced tissue to further study the disease in the vaults between Noxas Block, developing his own alternative strain. It is here that he made the Konnigsratte, and has inadvertently infected several students across the campus, of which he has been forced to abduct and keep as test subjects until he can devise a cure, if one can ever truly exist.<\/p>\n

In his mind, he fights a difficult battle, however. Whispers in his mind, a familiar voice that he cannot place, speaking to him of the peace that can be attained with Dragonblight. That Bastian\u2019s goals and even Hendrak\u2019s, were noble, but fraught in a path paved in blood with no care for the peoples of Minera, should they achieve them. The voice tells him now that he can achieve what they sought, but can do so while minimizing the blood spilt for his cause. It is because of this that Frederik wears a sour and pained look at all times, though many mistake this as pain he endures from the injuries he sustained.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The set<\/span><\/p>\n

The University of Canos is one of the oldest and most prestigious arcane institutions on the continent of Tharador. It is a vessel for transforming raw, unrefined magic-users into elite mages, either of the court or lab, whilst some paths also exist for those who intend to use magic in creative pursuits. It is currently rebuilding itself, two years after Dragonblight tore it down. Whilst campus life continues in a strange, quiet peace, something sinister stirs within. Students continue to go missing, and the staff are turning to desperate measures to find out why.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
