Jayce Talis is one of those people who never seems to be content with doing one thing well; he has to have a dozen different projects and interests up in the air at one time. He's starting to make a name for himself as a blacksmith, freelancing for a local one, creating multi-tools and blades aplenty, he makes more complex ones with his partner Viktor, Alucard even put an 'ad' of sorts on the restoration building for him, but then he's also getting connected at the academy. It's through sheer perseverance and aggressive enthusiasm.
He is often seen sitting in on classes in New Magic and medicine, running around with a bag full of borrowed books, chatting amiably with professors and students even on subjects he's not taking, and arguing over how many books he should be allowed to take out at a time in the library. Sleep is not for the weak, but it is for someone less distracted by thoughts. Jayce has helped where he could with the moth hare infestation, although he has no magical abilities yet that really do anything, but he's successfully trapped and released a few while visiting the University.
Nothing like Sypha, who he has witnessed from afar, with her incredible flashy magic and perfect control. Even if he didn't know who she was from Alucard's memory, Jayce would probably be watching with admiration. Magic is the most beautiful thing in any world, he knows that much, and it's easy to envy someone who seems connected to it in such a natural way. He had no idea how to approach her after asking Alucard about her, so in true Jayce form, he overthinks and then in the end, decides to ignore all his preparation. He just falls into step next to her as she's leaving the university one day. He's tall at 6'4 and broad-shouldered, and the look in his gold-brown eyes when he glances at her is all warm excitement.
"Hi. I've been trying to think of a way to introduce myself and every option seemed intrusive, so. I'm Jayce, Alucard's ... well, not friend, whatever he calls someone he gets along with okay." Don't worry, Alucard, Jayce won't assume closer relationship just because you only hissed at him the one time. "I just want to say your magical ability is ... incredible. I've never seen anything like it."
Wildcard! :D
