Cooper is a charismatic people person despite his looks. Dropped out of school to travel and adventure with his childhood friend Garrett, leading to the eventual creation of their adventuring party. Spends most of his time reading, researching and doing paperwork and organizing his teammates. He enjoys the adventuring line of work, but doesn’t like being in the wilderness for extended periods of time.
- High functioning anxiety and self medicating about it to chill out
- Confused Nationality/Racial Identity (in D&D he'd be classified as a Tiefling)
- Garrett is the only person outside of Cooper’s family that knows his full name.
- Has many enchanted items - will enchant to make his life more comfortable/convenient, but takes a long time to develop runes.
- Keeps extensive notes.
- left handed.
Combat skills - Ambush fighter, strong offense, hits hard and fast at the expense of lower defenses; informal weapons training. In D&D terms, he'd most likely be a fighter barbarian mix.
Magical abilities - Wanted to become a wizard, went to school to study for it but showed no magical aptitude due to his Erothian heritage and was put in the "small magic" program. Through this, he learned magic systems and languages and became adept at metamagic, using written word and runes to create a personal codex for magical equations. Has infused some of his personal affects with custom runes with some success.
- His Erothian heritage also grants him supernatural strength and ferocity in battle, which is often triggered by increased adrenaline. Cooper can tap into this willingly, but is at risk of loosing control the longer he is in this state.
Role on Team - Does most of the paperwork for the team and generally manages everyone.
Appearances
Classic "red devil," yellow eyes, slit pupils, sharp teeth but no horns. Distinct scar on his lip (left side) and a missing chip in his right ear. Soft scaling/plates down his spine and on the base of his tail, has claws but keeps them filed down. Has a number of magic items he keeps on his person at all times - magic rings, leather bracelet with custom runes. Outside of combat/traveling, appreciates finer well made clothing and likes having an occasion to "dress up" despite his wardrobe looking like it needs an update.

Relationship & Connections

- He trusts Celeste Elvar the most when it comes to paperwork, and is more than a little intimidated by her magical abilities compared to his own.
