= Story =

Variel was born in Starlum as the only child of the esteemed adventurer, Vior Zeissayen and his wife Linyi. His parents were wealthy, and thus he grew up in Starlum's Solar District in a large manor. As he grew older, he wished to become an adventurer like his father before him. His father responded by sneaking him out on small adventures as a way to satisfy him, much to his mother's dismay. Variel studied magic throughout his whole life, however he began to develop an interest in swordplay and melee combat. Thus, he began to practice with a sword in his free time, and eventually developed a fighting style that combined both blade and magic.

When Variel came of age, Vior granted him a mysterious sword cane to hold on to, which became Variel's primary weapon. Much later, he began to observe strange properties with the sword, noticing that the blade occasionally glistened with a strange light. Variel determined that the sword was hiding some magical properties, but neither he or his father were able to use them.

Variel later saw advertising for Silverhand Industries's upcoming event, the Gold Hunt, and decided that he would enter the competition as a means to get out on an adventure and potentially even discover the secrets of his strange sword.

= Abilities = Variel fights with the Soulflare, a magical sword cane that allows for absorbed souls to be summoned in battle. As for his own techniques, he fights using both his sword and spells in tandem. One may notice his preference for the spell Shocking Grasp.
