View source for Skiah Agnetti

'''Name:''' Skiah Agnetti<br>
'''Title:''' Academy Magnate<br>

'''Appearance:'''<br>
Skiah was an old [[Lakoi]] with grey hair and wrinkly bronze skin.  He was muscular in his prime, though later the mass sagged unimpressively.  His movements were slow, yet regal.  The Magnate did not present himself like his Lakoi kin do - there is no fun in his eyes, only scorn.

'''Bio:'''<br>
Once a light hearted soul, Skiah was known to have changed dramatically after [[The Long Night]].  It was a harrowing experience that caused him to become the stern, dedicated man he is today.  He no longer drinks, no longer seduces.  The Lakoi who knew him before he withdrew entirely into the Academy lament the decision, as he famously became an Enchanter so that he would be the irresistible life of the party.

Skiah had unraveled the mysteries of awareness and the mind.  His study went beyond Emergent Phenomena as displayed by sorcerers and his mastery of Enchantment.  He deciphered the art of Oneiromancy - dreamwalking - from [[the Obelisk]], used it to observe and analyze the psyche.  His power was so great, his understanding is so profound that he had deciphered the latent powers of Sorcerers years before they manifest.

Magnates Agnetti and [[Matthemy Seragim|Seragim]] had a public rivalry; neither is willing to tolerate the presence of the other unless [[Galen Gray|the Primus]] demands it.  While Magnate Seragim openly disparages those Scribes who are not devout to [[Ephaesus]] as unworthy and inefficient, Magnate Agnetti staunchly defended them and their value to [[the Obsidian Academy|the Academy]].

Magnate Agnetti succumbed to madness during the events of the second long night after some particularly spectacular nightmares.
