Wyvry
Wyvry, a self chosen name, is a spiderling created by a necromancer ruling in the Lower Wastes out of spliced corpses, originally intended to be used as one of the necromancer’s many undead servants. They start their life very similar to Frankenstein, brought into the world in an adult body with the understanding of a newborn. Wyvry escaped the necromancer’s lair and wandered through the lower wastes’ deserts, making their way into civilization. Aven, the court mage before Wyvry, had met them haphazardly, but took note of their tenacity to survive and fresh slate of a mind in a fully developed body. There, Aven decided, he would take Wyvry in as his apprentice to eventually become the new court mage.
Wyvry now is Queen Lavender’s Court Mage, overseeing the monarchy’s arcane progress, development, research, and defense. When they took over Aven, they were still very inexperienced, but eventually stepped into the role well. It also helped him ease into being the court mage that he and Nigiri, the Court Medic and his partner, are Lavender’s closest people.
Wyvry’s favorite studies are the Celestial Gates, a gateway to the Celestial Plane where there can be a chance of meeting a Celestial Being and asking them for a gift. Wyvry had met a Celestial Being while wandering through the desert, which had gently stirred their mind down the path of this interest. Throughout their life, they struggle greatly with madness that inflicts them with their frequent contact near the Gates. He is sporadic but calculated, expressive but observant, chaotic, but collected. They have the animosity of a true spiderling and the discipline the best mage in the monarchy needs to succeed.
