Raven

Drakkenheim, Bard of Collage of Whispers specific.

You were taken into the guardianship of the Amethyst Academy as most mageborn children are, when you manifested magical abilities at a young age. However, partway into your studies, it became clear that you had a knack for finding out secrets and getting into places where you shouldn't be. So, you got sent to the private tutelage of Master Woten, to learn how to infiltrate, investigate and other ways to find out secrets and information that could benefit the Amethyst Academy. You are loyal to the Academy but keep it secret. Only a handful of the members of the Academy even know of the existance of their spy organisation, also called Woten's Whispers. His agents are referred to as ravens. Master Woten is widely known at the academy as the keeper of messages since he is in charge of the message pidgeons and other birds that get sent to and from the academy. So when he let someone know that a Raven came with a message, it doesn't wake suspision.

Suggested Characteristics

A singing tale-telling Bard during the day, and more like a skulking spy at night.
