About

"Everyone give it up for the one, the only, Mago Mihan!"

    A traveling magician, Mihan loves performing magic tricks of all kind to those who are willing to watch. However in Nilangad, the art itself is considered niche because magical energy already flows throughout the land. Mihan would always insist that real magic isn't the same as performance magic though, since in his case there is no actual magic used. Despite people making fun of him, Mihan continues to do what he loves and is on a mission to popularize the art of performance magic once again.

   Mihan is not only memorable because of his tricks but for his personality as well. He is not afraid to wear his heart on his sleeve and is very dramatic and expressive as a result. Mihan also seems to have some sort of delusion of grandeur, as he truly thinks he’s the only one capable of making performance magic more well-known across Nilangad. This sometimes leads to him acting like a chuunibyou, so a lot of people don't take him seriously. He's outgrown it by now but sometimes reverts back to his old self when he's in the moment.

    Though behind his persona, Mihan truly does care for those he considers dear such as his family, friends, and his supporters. His mannerisms may be off-putting to plenty, but he is still a kindhearted, generous, and reliable individual. This is especially evident when it comes to kids. Mihan often offers to provide magic trick performances for children's birthday parties- sometimes even for free. Seeing the smiles on their faces and sparkles in their eyes when he takes out a coin from behind their ear is payment enough for him.

   Being half-wizard, Mihan has wind magic running through his veins. He may not be able to perform the more advanced wind spells, but he sees no problem with that. He is perfectly happy with being able to fly without having wings that can carry his body. With the help of his head wings, Mihan can sense danger from afar and can easily escape to avoid it. Though when faced with no other choice, he is able to use his sharp claws to physically attack as well as use them to perform quick air slashes with the aid of his magic.
