*Explanation of Statbar: I've based it on the magic level, the higher it is the harder and dangerous the spells are to cast and this difficulty increasing exponentially, requiring lots of practice as it goes on. His Magic level is approaching journeymen level and it won't go up anytime soon. His swordsmanship is apprentice level and Firearm is novice.

Biography:
Spoiler:
Milsantos Mediocros hails from a land named Tirnan; a peninsula riddled with fortified reclusive magocracy city states where one's station was appointed by power and respect, and achieving those by any means.
Milsantos was born into a rather reputable and powerful family that had high exceptions for him. The youngest out of 5 children, his older siblings being all girls, though that didn't stop him from being the one to be picked on. The cabal of kids he befriend as a kid picked on him, his nick name was Mediocre Martha.
Despite being picked on by his sisters, his father took a shineing to him after Milsantos decided to steal one of his father's mage friend's cloak and tie it around his neck and walk around proudly of his action during a meeting. Ever since that stunt Milsantos took it upon him self to display power and demand respect from everyone though by doing so he disregarded common sense, usually getting him self into trouble or making him self look like a fool. Despite all the trouble or how much of a fool, his father encouraged his son to command respect and control power no matter what, no matter the means.
Apart from that, Milsantos was a good student, dedicated to become a realm noted spellsage. When he became 12, he took his training in magic seriously, spending only a little time causing trouble and lots of time practicing. He focused mainly in Fortimancy and Inscription, while marshaling some time in illusion. When he became 20 years old, his training was over and he had to take the last test; A inscription test then 3v3 mage brawl with no restriction. With luck Milsantos did well in the inscription and literally blasted his way through the brawl. Afterwards he was conscripted into his city-state's military for a service of 10 years. He was rather glad he got pressed into it, it meant more hands on practice.
After his service his father told him that he was to go out in the realm and get some experience out side the city-state and prove himself or he would be sent to the slave stockades. With that he left the city and took a ship to Aekhan.
Current Tasks: Acquire money Obtain artifacts Create an artifact
Completed Tasks:Travel to Aekhan Failed Tasks: Kill Tarvol and his goons Eternal Tasks: Obtain enough power and respect and conquering his home city state.

Definitely Kosher canon-wise, if powerful, but I am willing to see another mage in our midst, as well as another player in the forum roleplay. I've been slow in getting my application up, but it will be up soon. I would like to see, however, what schools of magic your character's spells tie into. This might just be me, but DnD magic always rustles my jimmies.
The reason for this being some of the lapses in physics and chemistry; having said that, I realize this is not specifically the real world, and that perhaps magic can provide some forces to which I am not as apt to understand. Also, i don't understand all the rigid formality of the DnD system; I won't lie, a good amount of your biography is in another language for me.
Oh, but, to put it specifically: I approve. Even though I am a little on edge about it, i trust your ability to handle the character... and my ability to half understand the system by which you used to describe your magic.

Added secular school next to each spell, though i don't really know what to class Create Jelly as but I listed it as evocation. Anyway I tried to balance his list of spells so he'd be able to have offensive dart magic and defensive warding spells. Also I won't op play Manshoon, He won't have all his defensive spells on him in a flash, he's a glass cannon just like how the term is used in WoW for mages.
Anyway, feel free to comment guys, I'd rather get this koshered out sooner than later and note, he does have to weave and spells have a straight trajectory so you can dodge them or have time to block them.

The spells seem to balance out with the drawbacks and the straight trajectory mentioned. I've read everything and don't have a problem with it, because I know I could trust him with this. For whatever it's worth, I approve.
