Aaravos headcanons //part 1
Fandom: The Dragon Prince
Since heâs been locked away, Aaravos has been forced to get used to loneliness, which is something he never really thought would bother him so much.
The truth is, Aaravos enjoys the presence of other beings, even if itâs someone he thinks is lesser than him. If they are no match for him intellectually (which is not hard, given heâs centuries old) they can at least amuse him. There are few things Aaravos enjoys more than fooling and deceiving others for his own pleasure.
Before his lock down, Aaravos has always been popular, both because of his immense power and the ability to predict where something interesting would happen. He enjoyed being in the spotlight. Heâd take every chance to show off, which usually brought him as many admirers as poor souls begging to become his students.
All that ended with his banishment.
The first  few weekâs must have been a shock. There was nobody to talk to, nobody begging for his attention, he didnât even know whatâs been happening in the world anymore.
In a desperate hope to save his sanity, Aaravos must have dived into the books from his chambers, trying to take the loneliness out of his mind.
No mage on his level has bad memory, so the books were a fleeting choice, saving him for a few more months before every word became predictable and memorized.
When the crushing realization that his banishment has no end date hit, Aaravos had few choices. Could he really be blamed for plotting his way back onto the pages of history?
Aaravos is a master strategist, both because of his experience and the time he had to plan and study different approaches to problems and ideas. After all, he had all the time in the world. He wouldnât age, he wouldnât die, and certainly, he wouldnât give up.
