Encer

A once prominent member of the Elysian Institute of Arcana, Encer was a gifted Wizard in his practice of the School of Dunamancy, with an affinity, flair and compulsive obsession over time and the element of the cosmos that could be manipulated in place of the weave to harness his from magic from. His learning delved deep into arcane, with the mage developing variations of Dunamancy spells as runes were etched, destroyed and adapted to his pleasure to create new forms of magic.

After concerns over Encer's development of magic and crafting of spells, the Institute placed limitations on Encer's study and placed a formal observation and enquiry in much of Encer's research over concerns over the potential malevolence nature of the spells being created. Upon end of the inquiry, it was found that Encer had gained access to a forbidden section of the library of the Institute, to which only Elders were permitted to enter.

Following a short-lived in trial, in which Encer made no apology nor showed any remorse for the seeking of knowledge, which he claimed to be 'the essence of their being and that of the very creation of their order'. On four counts of proscribed reading, Encer was expelled from the institute.

It was not until 2EF, when the Adventurer's Guild of Eskarya stumbled upon a cave in the Vester Forest that Encer was found once more, though he was then the leader of a group of Nothics in mage robes and the High-Elf himself assumed a nothic form. Much of the cave appears to have once been a reasonable barracks of sorts, but has since been scavenged and mostly destroyed as the feral nature of the beings have since claimed mind, soul and cave.

Upon meeting the adventurer's, Encer marked his need for more subjects for his trials and experiments so he can try to reverse the process that he and others had gone through. Ancient texts and tomes laid on his table and scattered upon the floor. The group left, promising their return with aid for his and his community's plight.

Upon discovery of the party's murder of many of his community, Encer's heart-wrenching scream echoed through the caverns as the party fled for safety from the mage's wrath.
