Name: Hrolf Ganger
Occupation: Apprentice
Nationality: Scandinavian
Height: 6'3
Weight: 200
Age: 27
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Gray
Appearance: (Picture pending)
Personality: Hrolf is an introvert in almost every aspect of his being. He generally keeps to himself, and is usually lost in thought. He rarely speaks, unless he is comfortable around the people he is with. When he does speak, his voice is calm and distant. Although he is shy, he longs for acceptance and to have friends, but his quiet and reclusive personality usually turns people away.
History: Hrolf, as a young boy, was, different than most children. He had a great understanding of things that children his age should know nothing about. He spent most of his time in the vast woodlands of Sweden, reading or lost in deep thought. Most of the other children teased him and picked on him for being a 'weakling', Hrolf took this hazing with dignity and simply ignored their childish taunts. Hrolf's childhood consisted largely of such hazing, but it only served to make him stronger.
At about the age of 14, Hrolf had a dream where a huge Tree-man spoke to him saying.
: "Hrolf, the scion of the Ganger family. You have visited my forest many times in your lifetime, and I have seen your mental energy at work. You are respectful of my forest, and all that inhabit it, for such virtue, I give you this seed. Plant it in the soil and focus your mental energy on it's growth. Use this only in a time of dire need, though, for if you waste it, I shall no longer protect you. So long as you use it for just reasons, you will always be able to create another one."
The tree-man started to fade away, but before he could, Hrolf called out to him. "Wait, great guardian! What am I to call you?"
Saige: "You may call me Saige, scion of the house of Ganger. I must leave you now, farewell."
The Tree-man then disappeared and a bright light started to shine. The light then moved toward Hrolf, who held out his hand and let the light fall into his palm. The light faded and the seed that the Tree-man spoke of could be seen. Hrolf then awoke from his dream to find that there was that same exact seed in his hand that was from the dream.
After that dream, Hrolf devoted his time to studying magic and the supernatural. He found a particular interest in elementalism, specifically wood magic, as he lived in a country which had abundant forests. He spent many years mastering spells and strengthening his mental energy. It has been 13 years, and Hrolf has still not had to use the seed that Saige gave him, and Hrolf now heads to the Arcane Academy to become a true elementalist.
Style: Hrolf is an elementalist who specializes in wood magic, which he learned in his many years of studying the magical arts.
Strengths: Hrolf is a very intelligent and calculating person, usually able anticipate his foe's moves and defend accordingly. Hrolf is also a large man and can take quite a beating.
Weakness: Hrolf spent his life studying and thinking, not playing sports or undergoing physical training of any sort, therefore, he is not the strongest man ever. Hrolf also isn't very good at wielding weapons, and he doesn't have the best fighting technique ever.
Spell List:
Wooden Rain: Hrolf expands and increases the speed of the molecules in any wooden object that happens to be near him, resulting in a controlled explosion causing hundreds of pieces of sharp and splintered wood to fly at his opponent.
Entrapment: Hrolf causes tree roots to unearth and wrap around opponent, rendering them paralyzed.
Trees Are Your Friends: Causes tree roots to unearth and form a cage, so to speak, around Hrolf, or whomever he is trying to protect.
Wrath of the Trees: Hrolf manipulates tree roots and uses them to crush his foes.
Ballista: Hrolf changes any nearby wooden object into a large, sharp projectile, which he then launches at his opponent.
Bark Skin: Hrolf takes the bark from the surrounding trees and forms a thick bark shell over himself, making a very thick armor.
Weapons/Gear:
Wooden Staff: A four foot long staff, that Hrolf created himself, using his elementalist abilities. It is very strong and sturdy.
Thick Fur Coat: A thick coat made of fur, suitable for the cold weather of Hrolf's homeland of Sweden. Very simple, as Hrolf is not a flamboyant man.

Saige, the Ent
Saige Description: Saige is a Tree-Man spirit. In a dream, one day, Saige spoke to Hrolf Ganger, and granted him his guardian powers. Now, by producing a Saige Seed in his hands, using his energy, and planting it into Mother Earth, he can bring Saige into corporal form to protect him. Saige is a huge creature, twelve feet tall. His arms are strong as stone, and although a little slower then some, is still able to smash the average mage into the fairy dust that they are. If his corporal form is destroyed in battle, it will exhaust a fifth of Hrolf's capacity energy, and is unable to summon again, until Hrolf and Saige's spirits both get a chance to heal.
Saige Strengths: He's strong against anything physical. He has incredibly strong bark-skin, making him impenetrable to most physical attacks, and his nature-like ability allows him to buff up with offensive/defensive/supportive water spells cast on him. Saige's nature like element also makes him a natural dampener for all magic attacks, save fire. And unless you have a d**n hard protective spell on, he'll crack you into bits like he cracks open stone walls.
Saige Weaknesses: Fire. That, and very sharp weapons, like axes. But, regardless, he's still strong as hell, so, you'll be d**ned to take him down in one shot, unless your using a high level spell, or have the strength of several oxes, or just have a really, really sharp weapon to cut him to pieces with.
Saige Stats:
-Strength: 25
-Dexterity: 5
-Endurance: 25
-Intelligence: 5
-Wisdom: 5
-Energy: 0
Saige EXP: 0
