Legends and common knowledge don't always agree, but when it comes to wizards the facts are not so far from the stories.
Both say that tunics are made from wild magic. Both say that a len who catches, tames, and puts on a tunic is a wizard. And both say that a wizard is named and known by his deeds. Take Duin the Fearless or Bjarne the Vengeful as examples.
My name is Hol and I am a wizard of the kingdom of Dar.
Though this is true, what name will come from my deeds is yet unknown.
From the time I was young, my mother said I would be known as Hol the Proud. The Queen once called me Hol the Loyal. The other wizards of Dar call me Hol the Upstart. Most times, I fear I will be remembered as Hol the Failed.
My tunic has its own opinions about what I should be called.
In fact, my tunic has opinions about everything.
If it has its way, I will be known as Hol the Fortunetelling Wizard.
But there hasn't been a fortunetelling wizard in Dar in over eight hundred years and because I didn't actually catch or tame my tunic, I fear even more that I might not even be a wizard at all.
I want to prove my mother wrong.
I want to prove the other wizards wrong.
And most of all, even if my tunic ends up being right, I hope I prove myself wrong as well.
