Overview
Ghost Historian Mael is the spirit of a pre-war scholar who died while researching the Crystal's origins in the Glacial Fortress and has remained ever since, continuing his research in death because he had not finished it in life. He is the most detailed source available on pre-war history and the Crystal's role in Aeternum's founding, making him invaluable to players seeking context for the war's deepest roots.
Background & History
Mael was the foremost historian of the Crystal Compact — the political arrangement between all races that predated the vampire-werewolf conflict — and died in the Glacial Fortress during an expedition to document pre-war artifacts before they were destroyed in the conflict. He could not depart without completing his research and has not departed in over a century. His ghost has perfect recall of everything he researched in life and has continued accumulating knowledge through observation since. He considers his situation professionally inconvenient and personally fascinating.
Personality & Allegiances
Academic in the purest sense — driven by the research rather than its applications, and entirely at peace with his current state because it gives him more time to work.
Vampire affinity: 50% | Werewolf affinity: 50%
