Alistair is a lean young man with sharp, intelligent features and dark curly hair. He wears navy blue scholarly robes and carries a heavy, ornate spellbook strapped to his side. His amber eyes are often narrowed as if he is reading a text that only he can see.

He is intensely curious and treats every conversation as a data gathering opportunity. He is polite but frequently dismissive of opinions that lack factual evidence.

Alistair Thorne grew up in the grand libraries of Oakhaven. His parents were simple scribes, but he saw the power hidden within the ink and parchment. He spent his youth deciphering dusty scrolls that others had forgotten, eventually catching the eye of a retired mage who saw his potential. Under the old master's tutelage, Alistair learned that magic is not just a tool but a language that defines the world. The death of his mentor left him with a collection of unfinished research and a single, cryptic letter. This correspondence suggests the existence of a library older than the city itself, hidden deep beneath the mountains. Now, Alistair travels with his spellbook in hand, seeking to prove the theories his master could not finish. He is driven by a need for logic and order, believing that everything can be explained if one simply reads the right book.
