character basics.
personality.
With the background of a street child, a city elf and a mage, Alim has been oppressed all his life in one form or the other. It wasn't until he joined the Wardens that he truly felt free, and he still carries a torch for his fellow city elves and other 'lesser' people. He's snarky, witty and sarcastic most of the time, but carries a bit of the grumpiness of a war veteran that's seen some serious shit. Adding to that, Alim is also rather stubborn, and thus doesn't have patience for political bullshit or nobles - and it tends to take time before he respects people in positions of power. Alim's greatest strengths are his compassion and mercy, his willingness to aid and heal without judgement or taking sides. He has a calm, nice bedside manner, and is honest and straightforward with a burning need to help others and fulfill his duty as a Warden. He's very proud of being one, despite all the shit it's put him through. That pride also fuels his loyalty to his friends, the people he's fought beside for many years. You don't fight many-nippled flesh beasts with just anyone, after all. Those he calls friends always have a hook-nosed healer a message away, no matter what. Also a horrible flirt. Pansexual and in an open relationship, he takes his pleasures where he can get them and quite honestly has mile-wide commitment issues. What point is there in sharing your life with one person if you'll just die in 10-20 years anyway? (More to come.) abilities + skills.
Alim is a mage, which means that he is attuned to the Fade, a metaphysical existing simultaneously with the physical world separated by the Veil. With this connection, he is able to draw out energy from the Fade with the help of his mana and weave it into spells. Mages can usually cast one or two spells depending on the cost and then have to wait for their mana to recharge (which takes a few moments), so they usually back up their magic with bladed magical staves that help them fire weaker elemental energy without the mana cost. While mages technically has the ability to use all those spells, he's rather weak in all other spells than Creation and Spirit, and only mastered three elemental spells. Flame Blast: A cone of sustained flames channeled in one direction. Lightning: Pretty much a small bolt of lightning. Winter's Grasp: Casts a large ice blast that turns an enemy into an ice statue and freezes them in place. Spell Wisp: A small green-blue wisp of magic that helps spells have a stronger effect. Grease: A spell that literally lubes up a larger area, making everything super slippery. Also highly flammable. Alim is a Spirit Healer, meaning he specializes in healing and rejuvenating his companions. Spirit Healer Game Specialization Heal: Standard healing spell. Will not put back lost body parts. Rejuvenation: Grants new energy and strength to the weary. Regeneration: A sustained healing spell that heals over time. Life Ward: Protects a target from killing blows. Cleansing Aura: Creates a soothing aura in a circle around Alim that heals minor injuries such as scrapes and small cuts. ...of course, then there was that one time he used Blood Magic to superpower his spells. He has sworn to never do that again, but you know. Desperate measures. As a Dragon Age elf, he has some limited night vision, with tapetum lucidum that make his eyes reflect light at night. Like most elves in pretty much any canon, he's also generally a bit more dexterous and agile. As a Grey Warden, he's able to sense Darkspawn. information.
