Adonis Arannis

Adonis Arannis, is a human wizard and a member of the adventuring party known as the {unnamed}. He is played by Ben Lewis.

Appearance
Adonis has pale green eyes and long, dark-brown hair. He has a slender figure which can occasionally be seen through his tattered clothing. Adonis carries a backpack complete with all the items a young scholar might need: a Spell book, ink, sand, and a dark crystal orb.

Personality
Adonis is normally careful and calculated, but can occasionally let his immaturity get the best of him. He is often saying things he doesn't mean or misreading social situations especially around Helena.

Adonis does not trust many people, but seems to find comfort in the large Hip Point pool of Gudrun and Ismark.

There are few people that really make Adonis smile so he tends to find happiness in objects, conjured or otherwise. This is evident by his reaction to Madam Eva giving him the ingredients needed to finally cast the Find Familiar spell.

Background
Coming from the small town of Neeks in the Continent of Caligo Terra, Adonis was never expected to be a gifted Magic User. In fact, many people did not think he would be particularly gifted at all. Born as the 4th child of 7, Adonis was destined to be forgotten. Too old to play with his younger three siblings and too young to hang with his older three siblings, Adonis would often be left to fend for himself. Although he may have not been able to connect with his brothers and sisters, he was able to make a powerful friend and mentor: "Bart".

Pre-Stream
There have been no significant indications on what Adonis was doing in his time before Borovia.

Death House
Upon meeting the Rose and Thorn Durst outside of their family home, Adonis was quick to question why they should be the ones coming to the aid of these strange children. His reluctance to help quickly changed once it was evident the rest of his acquaintances were set on freeing the children of the beast that they claimed to be plaguing them.

During the search for the basement which the monster was said to lurk, Adonis made many audible complaints about the elusiveness of the alleged underground chambers. Frustrated with the lack of findings, Adonis made his way to a ballroom where he quickly made his way over to the harpsichord playing an ode to Scooby Doo: F E E D.

Upon the spectral cultists' request for a sacrifice Adonis suggested that the group simply leave without a sacrifice or fighting the Shambling Mound which lay in the chamber. Although he did exit the room Buio was able to bring him back to the sacrificial chamber for their eventual battle with the Shambling Mound.

Before leaving the Durst Family Home Adonis was able to grab a few items from the basement that really caught his eye: A yellow bound Spellbook, a Crystal Orb, and a Varnished Orb.

During the escape from the house, Adonis nimbly avoided all but the last two traps which dealt 17 and 12 points of damage respectively almost costing him his life.

Vallaki
Buio...

Weird Owl Yankovic
Weird Owl may be the first example of Adonis' conjuration magic. Adonis tends to keep Weird Owl out of harms way, but has been known to use Weird Owl as a vessel to expel dragon's breath during battle. The name Owl Yankovic was taken as inspiration from the famous parody artist Al Yankovic

Buio
From the start Adonis has always been skeptical or questioning when Buio made a decision. It has ranged from using Weird Owl to spy on Buio as he looks for "oppurtunites" to the simple question of "Why?" when the bard so quickly wanted to go into action helping the Durst children.

Gudrun
Adonis always felt comfortable around his large Half-Orc comrade. He is often stating that he will go wherever Gudrun goes citing the Half-Orcs large Hit Point total. Though their relationship did have an interesting start when Gudrun mistook Adonis' Light cantrip for a fire causing the Half-Orc to rough up Adonis' small frame.

Helena
The interactions between Adonis and Helena started off as being short and awkward. Many times Helena would try to prank Adonis by being facetious or splashing him with water until one day when he was tired of getting wet.

Adonis attempted to shocking grasp Helena after she got him wet using her control water cantrip. Following this, she stormed off to cross the bridge that lie before them. Part-way down the bridge Helena was possessed and eventually the entire party was downed.

Kallundhra Nemminthia
Early into knowing each other, Kallie admired Adonis' control over his spells. At one point she had even asked how he was able to maintain such composure when dealing with the arcane. Flustered by someone addressing him so directly Adonis brushed it off as a silly question and lacked the understanding to provide Kallie with any sort of answer.

Other than that brief interaction, there have yet to be any defining moments between these two magic users.

Quests
It is currently unclear what Adonis' goals were before being brought to Borovia. For now he continues to travel alongside his new companions in hopes of one day returning to Caligo Terra
