Adrian Tarrance

Adrian Tarrance is a character in Ex Libris Lucifer. Residing in the city of Waxtide on the island of Aeterna, he is part of an internship for architecture. Though only 20, he has grand plans to make a name for himself as an architect, though he has so far participated in just a few projects under the guidance of his mentor. Adrian has yet to develop a confident and unique style, and while he rarely agrees with the direction his mentor takes during projects, he will do the job just so he can remain in good graces. Adrian complains internally a lot about the rift between others' designs and his own, though outwardly he is decently sociable, polite where he thinks it counts, and always happy to sit down with others over a bowl of fruit. He enjoys making plans and sticking to them, and reacts poorly to surprises. As per his training, Adrian has a good grasp of the mathematics and engineering needed to envision but not quite raise a building to life. Depth perception and drafting paper will only take one so far, as he has come to realize at his internship at the Alderice Contractors, a prestigious company based on the island of Aeterna. He feels his mentor, Deviata Patra, has not given his plans and propositions the consideration they are due, though he knows that by working under her he can only improve his skills. While his association with Alderice brings him some notoriety and clout among the upper crust, Adrian feels uncomfortable at elaborate building showings, socializing with the crowds easily enough, but there's always that nagging feeling inside that he's just another face in the crowd.

Adrian's Scribe abilities are much better than his Reader abilities. A good architect knows what spells can support the foundation of a structure, and weaves the magic into the building itself. Adrian takes pride in this particular aspect of his work, and feels that if he is good at his job, he enables others to perform theirs well.

Architecture

Adrian's training in the field of architecture encompasses visual and mathematical talents.

He favors round designs with intricate textures, and enjoys incorporating vibrant and complimentary colors in his designs. Despite his eccentricity, he appreciates the great works of famous architects, especially the Palmyra Promenade.
• Sketching - Adrian is decent at quick, rough drawings of objects, with attention to dimensions and shape.
• Calculation - From geometry to calculus, Adrian has been through the gambit of mathematical classes. He has a keen ability to closely estimate angles, and is precise when logging his work on blueprints and reports.
