Appearance
Bedlam stands between 5'9" and 5'11" depending on his mood and posture. His body is not muscular, fat, nor wiry, but somewhere in between. Being not entirely masculine, though not extremely feminine, he may appear adrogynous to some. His body is spotted with tattoos in seemingly random locations and themes from his neck, to his wrists, to his ankles. None of his tattoos would be visible while wearing long sleeves and long pants. His blue eyes, wide and full of life, cast a penetrating stare. Mostly he smiles, showing his pearly white teeth, though lately, his smile has seemed to fade.
He wears exquisite and extravagant clothing made of exotic fabrics. His cloak and hood are made of the finest silk and linen, embroidered with golden thread to resemble flames licking the edges of the garment. When not in his Trust robe he dons the finest tailored suits complete with solid gold buckles and fine silken frills.
Personality
Bedlam is fond of anything that he would deem as fun. Wine, dancing, women, music, telling stories, women, arcane knowledge, experimenting with new casting techniques, and women are all things Bedlam enjoys. But even more than any of those things, Bedlam likes attention. He will talk about himself for hours and hours if given the opportunity.
He dislikes authority, claiming that they're just there to ruin everyones fun. He also doesn't like competitiveness, rudeness, or snakes.
Bedlam believes that he may die at any given time, and expects to wake up dead each and every morning. This may make him to appear brave in the face of danger when in fact, he just constantly thinks his time has come.
History
Bedlam was raised by his Romini parents in Elysia. His relationship with his father was strained, almost as if his father resented him. In his youth, he was quite a trouble maker. Writing it off as him being unfocused, his parents did not discipline him. When he was about the age of fourteen, Bedlam blew up his parents home in a freak accident that not only left him homeless, but also parentless, as they picked up and moved to Mikona to be away from their tiny menace. He grew up alone in his teenage years, wandering aimlessly from job to job making what little money he needed to get by. He found guidance, if you can call it that, through the worship of Forian.
It was about this time that Bedlam realized that he had a knack for the arcane. Taking his magic for granted, Bedlam all but ignored any sort of formal training to harness his abilities. As he grew older and bolder, he began to experiment more and more with his magic. It wasn't until he joined the Red Order of the Flame that he began to understand his talents and began taking more of an interest in the mechanics of it all. After meeting with Burnest Gorria, Bedlam had found a way to put his personality, talents, and mindset to good use in the study of wild magic.
With very little regard to his own personal safety, Bedlam took to the practice of wild magic very well. His technique was well suited, his need for discipline was right in line with it, and having finally found his place in the world Bedlam jumped in feet first. He has since become a devout follower of Andrinor, taken on the position of the Senior Magus of Wild Magic at the Red Order of the Flame, and is happily continuing his studies in the field.
