Appearance

Personality

Vaelgir has spent much of his time in the wilds of one plane or another, meaning he generally has little use for modesty or etiquette, though he is rarely intentionally rude. He frequently does what he wants when he wants to, simply because few would dare tell a Planeswalker otherwise. Has his father's hair-trigger temper and a times seems a touch unbalanced, however his time camped with the armies of Bant has mellowed his rough edges somewhat, and he is certainly more than capable of showing decorum.

He has a noble nature, if an aggressive demeanor, and rarely is one to start a fight, though will also not likely back down if challenged or threatened.

Background

Vaelgir is the son of Cytorix of Tolaria and Vitalia Eventide, born after Cytorix was blasted out of time by the explosion of the Tolarian Time Machine, he was spirited from the island as an infant by Vitalia's sister, Vercalia the Anima. Raised by the Animas or nature mages of Llanowar, Vaelgir developed rapidly as a spellcaster, showing signs of the long life attributed to most half-elves, Vaelgir was shunned by much of the Elven Llanowar society, the strain helping to accelerate the igniting of his Planeswalker's spark in his thirtieth year.

Wildly roaming from plane to plane, barely able to control his powers, Vaelgir arrived on Alara first in the shard of Naya, then decades later in an attempt to return, arriving on the shard of Bant, drawn by the kindred spark of fellow Planeswalker Elspeth Tirel. Before arriving on Bant, Vaelgir was a true savage, shaped and frightened by his planeswalking, he was mellowed somewhat by his time in Valeron, aiding the residents of Bant in their struggles at the Conflux of Alara.

After a series of skirmishes against the Vampiric Planeswalker Temir Tepes, Vaelgir fled Alara, wounded and bearing a festing curse. In a weakened state, he 'Walked blindly into the Blind Eternities...

Spells

Green

Might of Oaks: Grants one target a temporary significant boost in strength, non-humanoid targets also recieve a temporary boost in size.

Call of the Wild: Summons three rabid squirrels who while normally playful and friendly, will also fearlessly attack most any target with no regard for their own safety.

Wall of Vines: Summons a Wall of Vines, which to all appearances is a simple bramble patch, which however is mobile, if very slow, and sentient, if barely. Usually used as a mobile shelter.

Leatherback Baloth: Summons a Baloth; part wildcat, part razorback boar, who has an aggressive disposition and a thick, leathery hide

Green/White

Behemoth Sledge: Summons the Behemoth Sledge (see below)

White

Soothing Balm: Heals one target a small amount

Graceful Reprieve: Heals one target a significant amount, or if used proactively, can relegate a serious wound to merely a minor one.

Unique Items

Behemoth Sledge: A massive war sledgehammer of epic proportions. Able to deal shock damage even through most armor, and provides slight magical healing to the wielder with every landed blow. Must be summoned.

Shield of the Righteous: A large kite shield embossed with depictions of battle, made of magically enhanced metal, it will turn aside most non-magical weapons and projectiles. Additionally, whenever a melee attack is thwarted by the shield, enchantments on it will slow down the attacker for a few seconds (about the length of one action). Must be summoned.

Tome of the Sun and Moon: When activated around sentient humanoids, can allow the user to speak and comprehend a language spoken before it was activated. Activating it exiles it to a pocket dimension, and deactivating it causes it to reappear and ends its effect. Therefore, only one language can be understood by the user at a time.

Items Of Note

Heartwood Spears: Made entirely of a special wood from the Valeron Forests of Bant, this wood has a light and supple exterior, but a steel-hard core and point. Makes excellent spears and javelins

Spell Components: A pouch containing many common spell components, even though few of his spells require them.

Herbalist's Kit: Containing a mortar and pestle and various other implements for the mixing, heating and storing of herbs and poultices.

Gems: A fist-sized pouch full of gems, mostly rubies and emeralds, which serve as currency on many different planes.

Weaknesses & Flaws

Flaws can go here. Balance is key! Hatred (3): Vaelgir hates Phyrexians and will do absolutely anything neccessary to destroy them.

Compulsive Speech (1): Vaelgir doesn't believe in holding back or keeping things to himself. What he sees as honest, others may see as rude.

Intolerance (1): Vaelgir distrusts any mechanical or partially mechanical people, as to him, they smack of Phyrexia. People with simple prosthetics are probably fine, robots and cyborgs not so much

Cursed (4): Vaelgir was cursed by Temir Tepes, dark bands of evil energy have worked their way up his arm to his elbow, causing him chronic pain. If they reach his heart, he will likely die.

Otherworldly Taint (2): Other than his peculiar mannerisms, Vaelgir's eyes glow when drawing upon mana, giving away that he is not of this world.

Enemy (4): Vaelgir has made an enemy of Temir Tepes, Vampire and elder Planeswalker. The two have crossed paths many times, Vaelgir often foiling Temir's plans, and thus Temir hunts Vaelgir across the planes, both out of vengeance and sport.

Bard's Tongue (1): Whether part of his curse or his heritage, Vaelgir has the ominous ability to make sudden, usually unfortunate predictions.
