[attr="class","text"] [attr="class","header"]Lucien [break]Veil Fate is yours alone to forge ahead. [attr="class","header"]Appearance
Lucien is notably shorter than one would expect due to his upbringing. He highly prefers comfort when it comes to his typical attire as he’s always experimenting with clothes and styles. His ash blonde hair touches his shoulders as Lucien often keeps some of the layers tied into a tail to provide a cooling factor on his neck. When it’s cold, he’s often seen with his hair down. Additionally, Lucien is often seen wearing some kind of jacket over his clothes. Even if it happens to be blistering hot, he’d just tie the sleeves around his waist as he’s never far from his jacket. Lucien is a bit on the skinnier side of his physique, or basically lithe. His body remained mostly free from scars or deformations aside from the couple of cuts along his hands. Often Lucien is found with a subtle hint of cologne for his scent, but it’s usually only detectable if someone got extremely close to his proximity. His hazel eyes possess a mixture between blue and green in a darker coloration. [attr="class","header"]Personality Lucien is a young man who always found it difficult to communicate with other people. Some may refer to him as a recluse due to his tendency to avoid large crowds. However, this is simply because Lucien tends to get nervous and filled with anxiety when he’s in crowds. As far as he’s aware, it’s a natural nuisance that Lucien possessed. Fortunately, when he’s either alone or in no group bigger than four people Lucien finds himself easier to communicate with. To total strangers, he might come across as nervous and quiet due to his tendency to speak softly. But as he warms up to certain people. Well, let’s just say that he has the tendency to not be quiet on topics that he finds interesting. Arguably about the only thing that seems to get Lucien in trouble is when he sees something shiny or valuable. For he tends to get the urge to swipe the item in question, and unfortunately the more rare it is the stronger the urge gets. Likewise sometimes Lucien would subconsciously pick up items and it has earned him a couple of black marks from fellow merchants as the result. [attr="class","header"]History The Veil family was once a prestigious noble family that boasted of strong mages. However, before Lucien was born, the family’s potential had waned as their magic power wasn’t as great as it used to be. Even Lucien’s father, Septa Veil, trained diligently to become a Magic Knight of the Purple Orcas. However a bitter rivalry between his brother, Dres Veil, had long been raging since they were children. Despite Dres’s potential being greater than Septa’s, the brother opted to focus more on business than anything else. Lucien grew up with one older brother and one younger sister. Being the middle child had its merits to some degree, but Lucien’s older brother was always the prodigy of the trio. For he demonstrated great power, one that was rumored to be greater than their father’s. Even Lucien’s sister held great potential with her expertise in controlling magic. Meanwhile, Lucien struggled with his magic both in control and power. As it would turn out by Lucien’s tutor, Lisbeth Corisinth, the boy rapidly learned how to control his magic to an extraordinary degree. Yet his efforts were overshadowed by both of his siblings as it was proven that Lucien happened to be the runt of the Veil family. The boy wasn’t deaf to the snickering and mockery with his name mixed with their venomous words. It was something that Dres sought an opportunity of as the uncle brought gifts for Lucien at every birthday and holiday. While his siblings would get gifts year round, Lucien would be considered fortunate if he got so much as a shirt from them, and often it was merely hand-me-downs. So the treatment of subtle neglect continued. When his brother got his grimoire, the whole family cheered with joy as their hopes and dreams came true. Lucien's brother possessed powerful magic, and no less than a year later the brother passed the Magic Knights exam and was accepted into the Crimson Lions. By the time Lucien had turned fifteen he had received his grimoire. The only one who genuinely seemed to cheer him on was his Uncle Dres. Septa had pressured Lucien into taking the Magic Knights exam for he hoped that all of his children would be accepted. But like so many others; Lucien failed his exam. The failure earned the disdain and shame from the Veil family upon the boy and upon Lisbeth for not training him properly. It was only then as Lucien was weighed down with severe depression that Uncle Dres practically extended an olive branch. An offer to make a living outside of being a Magic Knight, and through Dres the boy began to work as a courier initially. It was honorable work at first, but gradually as the year went by Lucien had turned sixteen. The jobs he was being sent on gradually became shady as he was sent to deliver supplies of items that Lucien was certain was illegal. But they were all done in the black market, so Lucien didn’t say anything. Before he knew it, Dres assigned Lucien to start assisting other groups within the Clover Kingdom that were nefarious at best. However, by this point it had become just another day, another job to him. [attr="class","header"]Magic
MAGIC DESCRIPTION: Lucien’s preferred style is to only reveal himself when either he has no choice or when he seized an opportunity. Tracking down individuals through his shadow magic and remaining out of sight is something that Lucien specialized in. The illusions he casts are often to trick the opponent into believing something is there, or to simply mask his presence altogether as he slips away. Alternatively, Lucien uses his golems when he needs to be offensive or defensive. But in all honesty he'd only do so as a last resort so to speak. Sometimes he'd use his golems as distractions so that Lucien can sneak into a more advantageous point or simply to sneak by the enemy. Other times, when Lucien opted to not venture into dangerous territory himself, he'd use his golems to explore those dangerous areas instead. Very rarely would he ever get into a fight by himself.
