- Scientist
- Artyom considers himself a scientist first and foremost. Anything to progress his research will be his first priority, unless it contradicts his ethics.
- Principled
- Artyom is a strongly ethical person, a fairly unusual trait for a magi of Estray. His code of ethics is fairly practical, but he’ll surely blanch at anything reprehensible.
- Isolated
- Since the death of his wife, Artyom dove deeply into his research, and cares little for other human contact. He has no interested in bringing her back to life, he just has nothing better to do with himself anymore.
- Naive
- Artyom lived a fairly friendly life as magi go, not making enemies, and getting in no one’s way. This leaves him moderately vulnerable to manipulation, and extremely vulnerable to thinking the best of people on first meeting them.
LIKES[/color]: // Science, people with unusual Origins, people with unusual Alignments, his dead wife, science.
DISLIKES[/color]: // Boring origins and alignments, intelligent people wasting their potential, people mentioning his dead wife, evil.
STRENGTHS[/color]: // A widely travelled expert on origins and alignments, as well as several related fields, Artyom is extremely well informed within his field, even having heard of rare conditions like the Shadow alignment. His magical talent is not exceptional, and he primarily knows defensive and utility spells. He is smart for a mage of his distinction, which makes him extremely intelligent compared to humans. During his significant travels, he has become accepting of technology, especially vehicles, though he’d never go so far as to praise technology over magic.
WEAKNESSES[/color]: // Artyom is not exceptional physically or magically, and has no offensive capabilities to speak of. His obsession with work often prevents him from making important observations or social connections. His intelligence is hampered by his specialized field of work.

MY FAMILY LINE[/color]: // Kaminski Family. A young family, already in decline, some members of the family have resorted to dark means to improve the family power.
MY HISTORY[/color]: // Born and raised by average magi of the Kaminski line, Artyom took quickly to magic, and was an exceptional prodigy within his family. After going through schooling with the clocktower, he quickly grew dissuaded from ideas of great things, realizing his ‘exceptional’ prana count was nothing compared to the older houses. He found his true interest after a life-changing lecture on the nature of origins. After graduating, he took a research position with the Sea of Estray on the condition he be allowed to research independently. He found his wife, was married happily, and then she died. Her death was unfortunate and avoidable, a simple traffic accident. From that point on, Artyom buried himself in his research, travelling around the globe and learning everything there was to know about origins, and eventually alignments. One day, while on a busy flight from Egypt, he suddenly received Command Seals.
MY GOALS[/color]: //
Discover why he received Command Seals.
Research everything he can about Origins and Affinity.
[/size][/blockquote]
RANK[/color]: // 6th Rank
ELEMENT[/color]: // Earth
EXPERTISE[/color]: // Clairvoyance, Research, Machination (a talent for creating intricate devices with his spells)
MAGIC CIRCUITS[/color]: // 25 at 4pu/each
SPELLS[/color]: //
Broken Base(Earth, Ether)
Rank: E-A?
Cost: 1-100 Prana?
Range: Self-to everyone in an area?
Description:
Broken Base is a Mystic Code, or rather, a Mystic Code to be. Realizing that he could soon be fighting for his life, Artyom began creating his own Mystic Code, drawing on his lifetime of research. Rather than try to overpower his enemies, he attempts to use the powers of earth and ether to warp his opponent’s relationship with their own affinity, changing their element randomly for the duration of the effect. Currently however, all it does is randomize Artyom’s own element when activated, and even then, not consistently.
Stone Flesh(Earth)
Rank: B
Cost: 1 Prana per minute of activation, drains all Prana when triggered.
Range: Self
Description:
Triggers when the caster suffers a significant amount of force to his body. A portion of the force is grounded by the spell, as a function of the caster’s remaining Prana.
Garden of Origin(Earth, Ether, Special)
Rank: A
Cost: Variable (Special)
Range: Willing Subject
Description:
This ritual allows a willing subject to be ‘planted’ in my workshop, putting them in a sedated and magically exposed state, like a spiritual surgery. The subject’s own Prana pays the majority of the spell’s cost, and with my direction, the spell reshapes the subject’s body and/or affinity to be more in line with their origin.
PLAYER'S NAME[/color]: // Antifinity
