Silvius Mason

''This page contains heavy spoilers for the Runesmith. Your viewer discretion is advised, Romeros.'' Silvius Mason is a human Adjudicator warlock of the Sentinel Rune and rune scribe, and a member of one of the two adventuring parties of the Useless Diablerie known as the Weavers. He is also the current iteration of the Runesmith Olbaryhm.

Appearance
Silvius appears to be a young human in his 20s. Like other iterations of the Runesmith, he has brown hair and bright blue eyes. While housing Echo instead of Rune, his eyes turn white. His palms are stained white from years of handling marble and he hides them by wearing gloves. He has faint circuit-esque lines running across his skin that are not easily noticed.

Personality
Silvius is an intelligent and focused person, sometimes missing key background details in his focus. He can appear standoffish but cares deeply about his friends' and sister's well-beings. In a conflict, Silvius often acts as a peacekeeper by compromising between opposing viewpoints and pointing out logical flaws.

Backstory
Silvius appeared as a baby at Trixy's feet after she was thrown from a cliff by her mother then presumably revived by Olbaryhm with the task of giving him to a family to be taken care of. He was adopted and raised by the Masons and grew up looking after his younger sister Aliwa. Silvius always had a knack for magical inventions, and after the Masons were murdered he was taken to work in the Prior Isles under the condition that Aliwa would be properly cared for.

During his stay in the Isles, Silvius worked under the pseudonym Olbaryhm and invented many technologies, including the Sky's Rune. When news reached him that the Isles had broken their promise and Aliwa had run-ins with the Grey Moths, he felt that he could no longer stay. He found Rune, and they promised to help each other escape the Isles.

Rune
Silvius is close to Rune, having gained arcane abilities from the sentinel that allowed them both to leave the Prior Isles. Rune sits in the back of Silvius's neck when inactive, and Silvius is able to talk to Rune mentally.

As of Olbaryhm's reveal that his soul was inside Rune and that he could possess Rune whenever he chooses, Silvius has yelled at and distanced himself from the sentinel in distrust.
