Background¶
Creator of the Noren Workshop and a top-level alchemist, he founded Noren Academy No. 1 with his own hands when he established the Workshop; his runecraft is why every Workshop academy has an elite seventh-level array at its core.42324 He wears the Workshop's standard alchemical robe, or a linen robe with a wooden staff, scholarly and composed, and the ship-plane's elemental tides go calm when he appears.1316 He is skilled in the fate discipline as well and keeps his own puppet units, strange-shaped dolls each dangerous to Jie Ming.3031
