You are aware that I am not really a wizard?

“This Lime-tree Bower my Prison” by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (read by Sir Ian McKellen)

Well, they are gone, and here must I remain, This lime-tree bower my prison! I have lost Beauties and feelings, such as would have been Most sweet to my remembrance even when age Had dimm’d mine eyes to blindness! They, meanwhile, Friends, whom I never more may meet again, On springy heath, along the hill-top edge, Wander in gladness, and wind down, perchance, To that still roaring dell, of which I told; The roaring dell, o'erwooded, narrow, deep, And only speckled by the mid-day sun; Where its slim trunk the ash from rock to rock Flings arching like a bridge;—that branchless ash, Unsunn’d and damp, whose few poor yellow leaves Ne'er tremble in the gale, yet tremble still, Fann’d by the water-fall! and there my friends Behold the dark green file of long lank weeds, That all at once (a most fantastic sight!) Still nod and drip beneath the dripping edge Of the blue clay-stone.

From Chronic Wander, our homebrew medieval steampunk tabletop RPG.

Our elderly mentor from one of our campaigns. Retired peacekeeper and professor, alchemist, philanthropist, widower, and now [allegedly] deceased. Wearing the iconic blue and grey colors of his guild, as well as a trademark copper gauntlet iconic to the Fellowship guild. Modelled after Sir Ian McKellen, per the instructions of my friend.

Death came to those in the image of those they missed the most in life, and often many greeted death more than once, some like an old friend at the end of a long life. As for me, Death took my mother when my sister was just a baby, and I was a preteen, at the demand of our family, as a punishment for crimes for loving a man. Death to my sister and I could not come to us in the form of our mother, for death in their realm was courting my mother. Death has feelings, death weeps, death feels anger, death has hopes and dreams, and death has a heart.
