Teclis

Teclis is the greatest mage the mortal world has ever known, a High Elf of frail body and boundless intellect whose mastery of the winds of magic surpasses that of any living being. Sickly from birth and unable to stand without the aid of enchanted crystal and staff, he is the very opposite of his twin brother Tyrion, the peerless warrior — where Tyrion is strength, Teclis is thought, and between them the two have preserved Ulthuan through catastrophes that should have ended it. From the White Tower of Hoeth, seat of elven wisdom, Teclis has shaped the fate of the world: it was he who taught the first human wizards of the Empire to harness magic without damning themselves, founding the Colleges that guard mankind still. In battle his fragile frame belies an apocalyptic power; he wields spells that shatter armies and unmake monsters, and bears artefacts of terrible potency. Teclis is proud, impatient, and painfully aware of his own genius, but his devotion to his people is absolute — and when the world stands upon the brink, it is his mind, more than any blade, that has hauled it back.
