Castle Gray — Brad Taylor

The traveler has lived for over 2,000 years, and he is a singularly powerful mage. He has done work with creator stone that nobody has done in millennia. He is the only person to ever discover what lies at the end of the Incarnadine Stair, and he has a unique mastery of life magic. No other living staff-mage can cast permanent spells and enchantments, and no other is immortal. He found a way to bring the great magical creatures, elves, dwarves, brownies, sprites, dragons, hippogriffs, and gryphons, back to the world. The traveler has seen nearly all human governments rise and fall across the world, and he feels bound to none of them. Do his longevity and power make him a law unto himself? Can the traveler bring justice even when popular opinion surges against him?
