“If you need me, don’t look for me. You don’t actually need me. That’s just an excuse.”

Hanzekihel Oulieus, is an Elvaari researcher at the Adventurer’s Guild. He originally joined to help himself find a cure for his Faltered condition. He is a researcher under The Studium who had also been contributing into the Staff & Scabbard subdivision.

Appearance

An Elvaari man with 178cm for height and a concerning amount of weight. He has a pale complexion and can often be seen with a very tired or uninterested expression on his face. He has a long blue-silver hair which he usually puts it in a braid. His silver coloured eyes appear to look very glass-like.

He often wears clothes in monochrome or muted colours. This man doesn’t have any fashion sense and is often coordinated by Vriella when in need.

Personality

Uninterested and unbothered would be the two main expressions this man carry everyday. However, despite how he looks, he often keeps his eyes peeled and ears open for his surroundings. He is very careful unless distracted. He doesn’t put up a smile and even if he does, it would mostly be a forced smile, rarely a genuine one. If he ever showed any other expressions, he has a habit of covering his face with his hand(s) or turning away as long as he can hide his face.

Hanzekihel doesn’t really talk much unless necessary. His way of speech tend to be more formal with strangers or people he’s not really close with while he is actually very relaxed when it comes to friends and family.

He, unfortunately, enjoys overworking himself as a way of distraction. Please look after him.

Biography

“Diagnosed as a Faltered ever since he was a child after the death of his parents. His condition is gradually getting better after the efforts of his guardian and his own. However, regular checkups on his mental and physical condition is still recommended. His child-self is as if the embodiment of his Curse as Hanzekihel is unable to move forward from his past. Note: Is it guilt? Regret?” -Comment left by the Guild.

I will be back. Rewriting this whole part. Until then, have this TLDR.

• Parents died when he was eight years old.
• Taken care by grandmother, Vriella Oulieus, the current High Elder.
• Due to parents’ deaths, consumed by a curse which turns him back to a child.
• Parents’ deaths were a huge mystery and he has no clue what actually happened, trying to find out.

Other reasons to live:

• Figuring out curses during other times.
• Work Research.
• Cure for corruption (for Calliope)

Other things causing him to crumble into pieces:

• Calliope and Micaiah’s disappearances.
• Deaths of a few other friends and or acquaintances.
• A few other things he’s responsible for. Don’t worry about it.

Health Condition

“Hanzekihel has the potential to control other aspects if it wasn’t due to his condition. However, he also has the chances to destroy everything around him if the curse takes control of his mind completely. Keep an eye on him.” -Notes left on a piece of paper by ???

The curse that manifested into him after the passing of his parents has been eating up his mind. Due to that, his aether levels were close to none. The Curse has made him harder to live as he kept turning back to his younger self, specifically when he was eight years old. There’s no specific cause to it other than having it happen at the most random times. Maybe there are times when he allowed the Curse to take over and revert himself to a child, but that was never clear.

Aether condition: His aether is originally already at a low level as compared to a regular healthy Elvaari. Therefore, when he turns into a child, his aether returns to a level close to none. He’s powerless. It usually takes up at least 2 to 3 hours for him to return to his current age. He prefers resting or sleeping during those times.

He should be able to wield more elements but the curse is restricting him. Water seems to be the highest potential for him and yet that’s the current most impossible element for him to deal with.

The High Elder has casted a spell on him after he was almost consumed by the Faltered crystals. A seal-rune can be seen on his back.

Mental condition: Terrible. Questionable. Acts like normal most of the time.

Physical condition: He lacks proper nutritions, lacks sleep. Suggestion: proper daily meals and get him to sleep at regular hours.

Equipments

Staff of the Oulieus Family

Elvaari generally does not need a tool, but in Hanzekihel’s case, this staff is very much needed. The Staff of the Oulieus Family is a family heirloom. The staff is usually hand down when the next in line reaches 70 years old. Hanzekihel received the Staff at age 10 under the orders of the Oulieus’ Elder, Lady Vriella, to help him with his condition. There were those who were against the decision but The Elder’s decision was final. He was indeed just a child, but she saw the potential in him. The Staff can change it’s appearance based on the user/owner. When the Staff was once again awakened by Hanzekihel, it took form of the crescent moon because the day he was born was on a waning crescent moon.

• “After all these years, I still don’t feel worthy enough to be holding the Staff. She would’ve been a more suited candidate for the next in line.”

White Cloak

The cloak he wears everyday is also an equipment to support is Aether capabilities. It is a large while cloak, covering almost his whole body, which comes with a hood. There are golden decorations around the cloak, tassels at the end of the sleeves. The inner side of his cloak can be seen as if it’s a whole night sky, filled with constellations. Did he do this? Who knows.

• “Does it actually give support to my Aether? I think it’s a very comfy blankie!!”

Valuables

Silver-winged Brooch

A brooch that he often wears. If not seen, it is probably stored in his pocket or anywhere close. The brooch was found at the location of his parents’ death and was actually the only thing found. Vriella had been keeping it safe for the longest time and only handed it to him after he decided to head out to Eversun. The brooch has a surprise in it, it actually holds a photo of the family and had been there even before the tragedy.

• “It’s… Really important to me. I’d like to keep it near me at all times.”

Secret Candy Stash

A rumour has it that he keeps a hidden stash filled with candies, but no one could ever guess where. If one were to guess, it’s probably in his hood or sleeves! It is filled with hard candies for whenever he needs a distraction and a bit of sugar.

• “Sugar is good for the mind, blood and emotions.”

Trivia

• Voice claim: Matsuoka Yoshitsugu (specifically Sytry Cartwright from devils and realist or Xiao from Genshin Impact.)
• He doesn’t actually hate you, he prefers not to be close with anyone because he’s scared of losing anymore loved ones. It’s not going that well. He got attached to a few and they’re gone now! :)
• Alcohol tolerance: Zero. If you make him drink, be prepared to take responsibilities of whatever happens after.
• He may act childlike when he turns into a child but you can use that against him.
• Hates his birthday because that was when the news about his parents’ death came in.
