Mallory Levario

Name

Mallory Levario

Concept

Wandering musician seeking to write the perfect piece of music.

Power

Bard's Path: Mallory is so driven to complete his task, some might say he's practically possessed. He's physically no different from any other human, but his determination is such that he will shrug off wounds to both body and mind. In exchange for a Fate point, Mallory can roll with a +3 bonus to either Physical Defense or Mental Defense.

Aspects

Adagio: Mallory prefers to do things slowly and carefully. When he locks his attention on a task, it becomes nearly impossible to break his concentration. However, he sometimes has difficulty multitasking or engaging in activities that require fast reactions.
Amoroso: Mallory is naturally trusting and loving. This offers him an advantage in situations where honesty and diplomacy are necessary, but he is also easily mislead.
Ostinato: When Mallory has set his mind on doing something, chances are he's going to go through with it. It takes a lot of convincing or a very good reason to make him change his mind.

Personal History

Mallory was once an ordinary fellow, just trying to make it in the world. His job was to clean out rented storage containers that were no longer being paid for by clients. One day, while emptying items out of a seemingly-average container, Mallory found a strange violin in the back. He thought it might be valuable and couldn't contain his curiosity, so he opened up the case and ran a finger along the neck. As soon as they made contact, a bond was formed. Wherever the violin came from and what was unique about it no longer mattered: Mallory had a mission.

He must travel the world and experience new things, so that one day he might be able to craft a song that perfectly encompasses life itself. He has learned much in his travels, which have taken him through dangerous areas, introduced him to strange people, and eventually lead him to the Library.

Mallory is 25 with rather long and bushy brown hair. He stands at about 5'11, usually wears clothes that are a bit raggedy and travel-worn, and almost always has a bit of stubble on his chin.

He sometimes comes back from long trips with a different accent/diction combo.
