Skills and Powers: After 400 years of near continous study and research, Lezard  is an extremely talented and powerful Necromancer, Artificer, and Sorceror, as well as being skilled in elemental and healing magicks, and knows many ancient and forgotten magicks.  Has the ability change gender and appearance via switching between artificial bodies of his own manufacture, that he calls 'humunculi'.

Weaknesses: When provoked enough, Lezard slips into an insane state of mind, becoming extremely unstable and dangerous unless immediately calmed or knocked unconscious.  Has horrible eyesight without glasses.  Has a high vulnerability to magicks, wards, and artifacts designed to strike at the soul and capture or hurt ghosts and spirits, though is capable of defending against them when aware of them.  Can only interact with others as long as he is possessing an artificial body, or by very complex magicks in his natural spirit form.  Also is barely mediocre in a fight without using magick.  When female, has difficulty with her self control.

History: Lezard Valeth is arguably one of the oldest, if not the oldest human sorceror on the planet.  This is partly due to his very much younger days as a student of magick.  He was a magical prodigy, but soon lapsed into insanity, then was expelled when it was discovered that he was studying
Necromancy.  However, by then Lezard had become particularly powerful and continued his studies on his own, which led him to discover what he called the Philosopher's Stone, which was a massive codec filled with countless thousands of years of magical knowledge, much of it lost, forgotten, or never even known, as well as things that should only be known by the Gods. and terrorized, tortured, and murdered as many as he possibly could with his sick and disturbing experiments as he strived for godhood.  One of these experiments caused the intentional seperation of his soul from his flesh, and afterwards he immediately destroyed his body which is the cause of his "unliving" state.  He can no longer be killed by normal means, as he has no flesh of his own to kill, and now naturally exists as a spectral being.
During this time Lezard became obsessed with a warrior magi by the name of Lenneth, believing himself to be in love with her, and tried his hardest to earn her love.  Eventually, he came to see just how much she truly despised him, and in that moment his insanity was shattered, and he vanished without a trace, unable to deal with his depression.  For the next few centuries afterwards Lezard wandered the planet, using artificial bodies to interact with the rest of the world as if he was still truly alive, and sold his services as a repairman and a creator of magical artifacts, though he adamantly refuses to make weapons, fearing with very good reason the destructive powers that he could put into them after the first weapon and only he ever sold caused the downfall of an entire kingdom.
