Reginald Danvers

Reginald (he hates any nicknames) Danvers started life apprenticed to his father. His father practiced the rarest of all trades, mystical blacksmithing. He was a master blacksmith who could work the strangest metals - it was said there was nothing he couldn't forge. He also maintained close contact to a few nearby enchanters, in case the customer wanted something special. Reginald was apprenticed to his father for smithing, and then worked with master Tokkiu for wizardry.

He was never big, but years at the forge honed his body. Meanwhile, his wizardry skills really accelerated. He was soon doing some of the simple work for his father. Then came the day both father and son knew was coming. Reginald got itchy feet and had to see the world.

For the next ten years he adventured with two groups. The first was the Golden Cats, then he and another broke off and created the Dakarian Panthers. Eventually he figured he had seen everything he wanted and journeyed home. He worked for ten years in a shop outside his fathers forge, until the day his father passed away. He constructed a small magical school next to the forge and brought on apprenticed. He felt he had much knowledge to pass on to another generation - both about the forge and magic.
