Taliesin

Taliesin in theory knows more or less how to deal with weapons. He certainly won't hurt himself m u c h when using them. He has basic understanding about short and ranged weapons, however he has no idea how to use magical staffs or complicated guns.

After at least 30 seconds of concentration, one of the symbols on Taliesins shoulders glows brightly before a white light erminated from his eyes. Within another 30 seconds, Taliesin can switch into a specific magic style, each having different pros and cons.

Fire

Taliesin switches to fire magic style. He can bend flames, lava, heat and explosions at his will, however he can easily set anything around him on fire. His eyes glow bright orange. It is a dangerous style to use in flammable areas however it is one of the quicker and more destructive styles to use.

Earth

Taliesin switches to earth magic style. He can bend rock, earth, mud as well as nature and growth at his will, however he becomes extremely slow when it comes to movement and attacks. His eyes glow bright green. It is a dangerous style to use in easily breakable areas as well as underwater, however it is one of the more powerful styles to use.

Water

Taliesin switches to water magic style. He can bend water and ice at his will, however he needs a source to bend the water from. He can pull water out of organisms however it requires more concentration. His eyes glow bright blue. It is one of the easier styles to use, being of mediocre speed. With enough creativity it can become a dangerous weapon.

Wind

Taliesin switches to air magic style. He can bend winds,lightning and sound at his will, however he is causing all the light items around him to be moved by wind. He can easily suck inside himself other elements, making him a destructive weapon for bad or good.This style is best for stealth missions. It is one of the easier styles to use, being one of the fastest ones however it deals the least amount of damage, unless used creatively.

Soul Form

Taliesin eyes and all markings grow bright white and becomes a soul elemental. He can phase through objects and cannot be hurt by anything except cast magic. With enough concentration he can attach himself to someones mind and whisper ideas to them.He cannot interact with any physical objects while in this form. In this form, Taliesin is easily damaged by cast magic. When killed in this form, he dies and doesn't return to any form. The only exception is when he is killed in a dream.

Picking a suitable style of magic for the specific encounter is crucial. Taliesin is unable to switch between the styles quickly as that takes up a lot of his energy. Taliesing is able to switch his magic style 3 times a day at max, with at least an hour between. Exceeded switching of magic can cause:
Headpains
Nosebleeds
Eyes burning
Deafness
Fainting
Coma

When in soul form, Taliesin can phase through reality and step into other peoples dreams, even those he never met or seen before. The other creature/person has to be sleeping at that time. When stepping into the persons dream, he can shift through them right into their world and later shift back into the flesh form, unless he is previously killed within the persons dream and set back to his own reality. After successfully traveling through someones dream, he is thrown out of their head, back into the flesh form. He requires at least 2 days of rest, leaving hm to be extremely vulnerable and weak during that time.This ability is available only once a month and is never a guaranteed travel between universes.

Taliesin usually strays away from combat unless tempted, tricked, defending someone else or having an advantage in numbers against the enemy. He tries to be avoidant or defensive, avoiding attacks with his speed or blocking hits. He doesn't use his elemental forms unless absolutely necessary to win. Usually he will stick to his weapons in flesh form. When in elemental forms, he gets more aggressive with his attacks.

A middle aged sorcerer once traveled the lands of the grand magic forests,escaping from guards chasing him from the human colonies.He has lost something extremely important to him, however he couldn't find it no matter how hard he tried. He cast a spell, wishing to see what he has lost, however the magic of the forest warped the spell, summoning life out of thin air. It was a creature he has seen before, similar yet so different- someone extremely similar to his dead son. The sorcerer was enraged, seeing his son he never cared for instead of the item he has been looking for and warped into another plane where he believed the item was. The child was left behind to fend for itself. A couple days later a group of guards marched into the forest, still searching for the sorcerer who has simply disappeared. They have found a child who looked similar to him, however whenever they tried to grab or take the child with them, their hands passed through the kid, like a ghost.After that event, researchers were sent out to investigate and observe the creature and it's behaviour without interacting with it.

Taliesin was summoned into this world by the criminal sorcerer and abandoned. As a young spirit brought into this world, he was blindly stumbling through the woods, trying to survive. He had to learn how to deal with his flesh form over time and how to take care of it. He explored and watched other travelers in the forest, learning from them just as much as he learned from nature itself.He always was curious about the weirdly clothed men, observing him but always shuffling away whenever he approached them.

Taliesin explored his territory and it's borders closer, sometimes sneaking up on the travelers in the forest to observe them even closer or take their things when they weren't looking. One time he finally got caught red handed by a man and almost beaten on the spot however another man stepped in before the first has struck. The second man was kind enough to share his food and knowledge a bit, trying to communicate between each other but struggling to do so. Talie caught on quick with very basic words as the same man kept on visiting him in the forest. He still had to learn about society, it's rules, pros and cons. He was taught language, craft and introduced to the other societies living outside of the magical forest.

Taliesin begins to explore the lands outside of the forest with morbid curiousity and lack of caution as the man who visited him constantly has not returned to him. He travels to cities, where he tries to learn everything bit by bit, easily getting himself in trouble, especially with the law. He tries not to worry himself about it, usually escaping using his powers. He explores the societal rules and begns to socialise.

Taliesin grasps the basics of most of things but he is no scholar. He still explores everything with great curiousity and enthusiasm. He tries to make a living with his powers as well as skills he picked up along the way. He begins taking up jobs and quests from boards, gathering money for items he never had before-comfortable clothing, weapons, armor, baked goods and other interesting items. He also tries to replicate one of the buildings in the forest so he may live more comfortably instead of living under bare sky.
