  • TL;DR

    FTol53P.png
    Once described as 'Horny Gandalf' the habbit is actually an Incubus. Not a demon, just a member of an empathic race of shapeshifters with a bad reputation. Dragons wiped out much of his kind and his old clan leader is dead. Jinan survives old enemies by advertising his skills as a wizard specialized in dimensional travel and lord of his own house. Jinan's working to fill the void by building his new family in House Tolesa and he tends to over react when something threatens this new future.

  • Form of Water

    Shapeshifter: Stories abound of ‘cubi taking various forms to seduce their victims. Mostly this is because old sages have a certain kind of imagination. Jinan typically uses his abilities to hide his heritage from public life. Lots of people consider ‘monster slaying’ a public service and the ‘cubi have their own enemies to contend with as well. This power is limited to the ‘cubi’s own mass and usually in a humanoid form, a taur with a humanoid’s mass being like two feet tall. While it is possible for Jinan to mimic a number of races, genders, and even clothing he’s still his habbit self deep down. If a part of the disguise rips or is cut off then that part of his body is injured. Think of it like changing a really, really good disguise instead of a body and you get the idea. One other quirk of the ‘cubi race is the extreme durability of their wings which is why Jinan usually forms his into a cloak. This is also why he never uses cloak hooks.

  • Shape of Will

    Spellcasting: Jinan gave up his family tradition of military service to instead pursue a more academic career path, specifically Arcane Studies. One of the benefits of a long life is the ability to pace yourself on your studies between real world experience and university schooling. Over the last ninety-some years Jinan’s worked his way into the equivalent of doctorates in Evocation, Translocation, Dimensional Mechanics, and Conjuration. Specifically he enjoys the lore around portals and their many uses & forms. It’s not unknown for him to use his knowledge of teleportation magics to travel vast distances just to see what, to the casual observer, is a pile of broken rocks.

  • Soul of Glass

    Empathic: The other power that made ‘cubi famous was their knack for psychic magic. While the stories attribute all manner of powers to the ‘cubi their natural focus is towards Empathy. All sentient beings exude emotional energy the way campfires project heat & light. ‘Cubi are sensitive enough to this energy that then can usually pick up on someone’s mood. In fact this energy sustains them beyond the need to eat or drink, depending on how many people are about and how deeply the ‘cubi ‘feeds’.
    Jinan is particularly strong with his Empathic abilities, leaving him vulnerable to emotional backlashes if he’s not careful. He filters most of it out to a kind of white noise, taking enough to live without losing himself to the tide. In one on one situations those same filters can be removed letting Jinan share the experience of the moment, sometimes to the extent that he can predict what the subject is about to do before they know it themselves.
    There are ‘cubi who have honed their natural mental abilities to carry over into areas like Telepathy, Dreamwalking, and Astral Projection. Jinan never focused on those areas of study preferring what he calls ‘a more intimate experience’. Given some of the other races that outstrip ‘cubi in these areas it’s probably for the best.

    Leyline Navigator: The use of Dimension Doors lets Jinan shortcut physical space by stepping through tangential dimensions, a bit like thinking with portals. That works well over short distances, like raiding the fridge from your seat on the couch, but longer travel would burn too much energy to be practical. Jinan’s major focus of study for decades has been the mapping of leylines through the multiverse specifically so he can exploit them as a means of travel.
    He carries on his person a notebook written in his personal code detailing all the known routes across the leylines and their intersecting nodes. It takes a few minutes to calculate the proper incantations from his logbook, assuming he’s at the leyline already, but once complete Jinan can open a portal from one world to the next. This is how he’s able to travel to so many exotic places, and occasionally even times.
