Appearance
Ivar has a swimmer's build and is 5' 10" tall. He's 190 pounds. He has black hair at medium length. He sometimes wears glasses; his vision is just fine but sometimes he feels like they make his head hurt a little less. If unwashed his nose gets dotted with blackheads but otherwise his complexion is clear. His eyes are light brown.
Ivar has a brand on his arm from here described below:
[the brand] would be strange but not painful; Ivar’s muscle tissue would uniformly increase in both density and elasticity. The change was fundamental to the tissue itself; he’ll still gain and lose muscle from activity like normal, but no matter the case, he’ll be about 1.5x stronger than he otherwise would’ve been without receiving this alteration.
Personality
Ivar has a backstabbing personality. He's a shopkeeper with ambitions of starting his own business someday. He has a generally negative attitude about the company he keeps and only puts up with people so he can make good use of them. Ivar isn't shy about being cold and heartless. Ivar's alignment would be lawful evil. Despite all his negative traits he is dependable and he cares about doing the right thing to get a business to succeed, even if it ultimately hurts him. He has an unhealthy obsession with women and their appearances. He has to fight the urge not to use his money at brothels.
Ivar did not show much interest in personal magic until he turned his late teens. He values his life quite highly and doesn't think his life is bad enough to risk everything on getting a few measly powers. He was woefully ignorant when it comes to how strong personal magic can be. He has an appreciation for world magic so he decided to join the college of entropy at the circle of spells. He hated that he had to learn traversion but it was what he had to do, so he learned it. He enjoys scrivening as he thinks it's very versatile. He learned both of those when he was 18. He has not made a whole lot of progress since then since it took him a lot of time to make progress.

History
Ivar was born and raised in Kalzasi. His father managed a small logistics business that dealt with moving products into and out of the cityIt was good money and Ivar helped him out. His mother died in childbirth so he never got to know her. Ivar had made plenty of business friends throughout the years and was eventually able to start his own logistics business which failed spectacularly. His father refused to front him enough money to start a second business so Ivar has been working as an information broker for the time being while he saves up enough and works on a revised business plan. He wants to earn an honest living, but in the past couple years he has learned that an honest living doesn't always pay well. He often makes money passing on information about his business contacts to people willing to pay him. He spends a lot of time in seedy places to meet with clients.
