![[Ged.webp]] # Ged _Sun Elf Wizard | [[Harpers]] | [[Waterdeep]]_ ## Summary Sun elf wizard who adventured with the [[Heroes of Waterdeep]] through the [[Xanathar Guild]], demonic invasions, and world-ending threats. Now teaches at [[Blackstaff Tower]] while serving as an agent of the [[Harpers]] and [[Force Grey]] — though misfortune seems to follow him. He assured the party nothing could go wrong when he activated the teleportation circle to [[Yartar]]; it catastrophically malfunctioned and scattered the heroes across the city. He had in fact been captured and imprisoned in [[Beregond]]'s [[Halls of Calamity]], and was freed by [[Petra]] after the party defeated [[Beregond]] and lifted [[Yartar]]'s curse of misfortune. %% ## Now _placeholder_ ## Appearance Handsome sun elf with sharp aristocratic features and dark hair past his shoulders, in midnight blue robes with silver arcane embroidery. Adjusts his sleeves before casting. ## Personality Quietly brilliant and patiently kind, carrying guilt over past failures. His teaching philosophy: understanding failure is the key to mastering magic. Mutters magical calculations when nervous. ## Quote _"Magic doesn't demand perfection—it demands understanding. The most brilliant spellcasters I know study their failures more carefully than their successes."_ ## Connections **[[Petra]]** — freed him from the [[Halls of Calamity]]. **[[Beregond]]** — imprisoned him beneath [[Yartar]]. ## Background **The failure that made him:** Born to the prestigious House Erenaeth of [[Evermeet]]. During [[Evendor Starbane]]'s attempted coup against Queen [[Amlaruil Moonflower]], Ged's magic failed at a crucial moment and his father died. His family never blamed him, but the guilt drove him to leave [[Evermeet]] for [[Waterdeep]]. ## Stats **Base:** Archmage (MM p.342). %%
