Larkspur Valnan

Larkspur is the delightful terror of the Seros branch located in Mythwood, Sylvain. He is infamous for getting called for disciplinary measures at least once per semester, as a consequence of one of his experiments (which usually involve playing around with transmutation magic). After a short stint in the Department of Matter (read: getting kicked out), Larkspur is currently finishing up his thesis in the Department of Antiquities.

Personality
Larkspur is friendly, flirty, and mischievous, using his charm to get out of trouble every other week. He is somewhat of a people person, although it's difficult to get through to him once he sets his mind on a new experiment/idea. Once he starts working on something, he hyperfixates on his task(s), to the point that he needs to be reminded to eat and drink.

While he often forgets himself when in the middle of research and/or experimentation, he does his best to ensure that his methodology follows proper safety protocols when other people are involved. He doesn't seek to hurt other people after all, especially if it's unnecessary in his pursuit of knowledge.

Background
Born Larissa Valnan to a half-elf mother and tiefling father, Larkspur hails from Mythwood, Sylvain. He started exhibiting an interest in magic and history from a very young age, spending an inordinate amount of time in the local archives reading dusty old tomes. As a young child, he also learned Bladesong from his mother, who has a past of adventuring.

He eventually passed the entrance exam for both Seros and Luxon, and chose to enroll in the former because "it'd be funnier, and they need more of my vibes". Shortly after entering the institution, he gained a reputation for proposing the infamous Polymorph chicken thesis project to the branch's Headmaster after sneaking into their office on his second day of school. While known for his questionable sense of ethics, he is also said to be one of the branch's most promising students, having somewhat successfully recreated Valor Helos I's Sun Blade together with his thesis partner, Curtis. Larkspur also frequently collaborates with Luxon's archaeology department, in his studies involving historical artifacts and ancient rituals.
