Boreas

"Honest to gods, I never would've guessed a man with a heart of ice could be so completely cordial." - Notes from a White Tower Lecturer Far, far in the north, there is said to be a towering palace of gleaming crystalline spires rising from the endless stretch of pure white snow. Crafted from ice over the course of centuries, this glacial monument was created by Boreas, the Arbiter of Frost. An elemental born from the cold itself, Boreas spent hundreds of years refining his control over ice. The palace stands as the ultimate testimony to his magical prowess. But once it was completed, Boreas found himself at a loss. Having created such a monument, how could he challenge himself next? The answer came from an unexpected source of inspiration: the books on magic and history that he had long collected. Boreas decided to leave his frozen domain behind to begin a new journey to a place he had only read about: the White Tower. The night that Boreas arrived at the White Tower was unforgettable for the scholars and students in attendance. As they recall, the front doors of the foyer flew open in a gust of wintry wind so cold it left long fingers of ice dangling from the chandeliers above. The arbiter stood silently observing his company before at last speaking. Quite simply, he requested to be allowed to enroll in a number of classes. He had arrived to learn of magic and more. Shocked, the scholars admitted him. During his stint at the White Tower, Boreas proved to be an invaluable source of information on elemental magic. Scholars learned much from his ability to create ice so cold it could withstand the sun's direct heat. And Boreas learned much of magic and the world beyond his icy domain. Knowledge became his ultimate pursuit, and so he endeavors to expand his understanding of magic and the world at large.
