Personality: Vesper is a peculiar being of whom very little is known. They obtained the nickname 'The Deafening Silence' due to the fact that whenever they enter a room there is no noise. Not a whisper. This is partially down to the fact that they will guiltlessly blast anyone who speaks out of the nearest window with their magic, and partially because they will often cast a sleeping spell of some description to ensure silence. Vesper themself does not speak either, making their thoughts known through actions or, where absolutely necessary, by writing them down. It is because of this and their clothing that it's not even known what gender they are.

When left to their own devices - and in silence of course - Vesper will spend their time reading, researching and/or writing in their journal. They refuse point-blank to interact with anyone else regardless of their affiliation or connection to the guild unless they are working a job with another. In this scenario there are still no words spoken, but simply exchanges through hand gestures - which often leads to comical mis-interpretations and the need for Vesper to write down what they wish to say to prevent further confusion and embarrassment. What has been noted is how Vesper will rush to an allies aid immediately if they require it, perhaps a sign of another side to the mage, or perhaps even proof of a rumoured inner conflict.

Speaking of conflict, Vesper becomes a silent demon in battle. They will let loose with every spell and attack in their arsenal without remorse until their target is obliterated and then move on without a seconds consideration for their actions. This has led to them often having to do jobs alone rather than with anyone else as the sheer sight has been enough to cause many mages to cut all ties with 'that monster'. This destructive mindset coupled with the mage's lack of vocal communication - or any communication whatsoever - makes Vesper a poor choice for a 'leader' in combat as they would act alone without considering what his allies could do, leaving them to their own devices.

Working under a leader on the other hand is where Vesper shines through even the black clothing they wear. While being a destructive monster has its benefits, being sent to tackle a specific target in a specific way allows Vesper to open their mind to an infinite number of strategies of which to make use of, pulling out all of the knowledge that they have consumed. While they may not show any appreciation for the 'leader' giving them orders, they feel more comfortable knowing that they have a set target and are taking another step closer to their ambition - assuming the leader is someone they can trust to some degree of course. A random person giving Vesper an order will only receive a blast out of the nearest window in response.

All in all Vesper is a silent but deadly weapon that, once a level of trust is built, is a stalwart ally. Building up that trust is the difficult part. Still, all the best things are worth battling for...right?

Likes:
- Vesper enjoys silence, prefering to be left in the company of one's own thoughts rather than having to have someone's voice grating into one's head.

- While it's something most wizards probably like, Vesper loves magic. The idea of pulling something out of thin-air is most intriguing and requires more research.

- Vesper loves to learn, whether it be through reading or through more practical research. While Vesper doesn't talk, it is speculated that they have immense knowledge that would surpass even a member of the Magic Council.

Dislikes:
- Onions are revolting. They have a ridiculously strong smell that can destroy the senses and they just taste vile.

- Vesper has often gotten into trouble for blasting people out of a window for being too loud. It's safe to say that one dislikes them.

- Music is in the same boat as loud people, although it's worth noting that if the music is kept at a low volume then Vesper actually enjoys it and works better with the background ambience. Too loud though and one will blast the source out of the nearest window.

Motivations:
- Protect the world from devastation one bounty at a time.

- Know all their is to possibly glean about magic, its roots, how it is summoned and, perhaps most importantly, where does the magical energy come from.

- To collect as many magic staves as possible to unlock all of ones magical ability.

Fears:
- To lose all ones staves would be catastrophic. How can one cast magic without a staff, their tool of redemption?

- Vesper fears the day that they are exposed. One is comfortable in knowing that no-one knows their face and that they are safe from the threats of the world.

- Betrayal is a huge fear of Vesper's and a key reason as to why they hide their identity from just about everyone, including their own guildmaster.

Appearance: Vesper's actual appearance is completely unknown, and the fact they don't speak just adds to the mystery. What can be described though is their clothing.

Their arms and hands are covered entirely by thick black leather gloves which meet with the sleeve of the robes to completely cover their arms.
