#mage Soskel is a playable mage from The New Age with the title "Aristocrat" and ability "Energized Sigil".

The New Age mat lore: "It wasn't until Arachnos captured me and forced Void essence into my very soul that I understood what true power is. It's the potential to make a difference, to save those you love. My whole life I've only wanted to serve and protect Gravehold but I was never strong enough. It's my home, and its people are my family. As a youth, I carried crying children as we ran from The Fall, told them stories to help them sleep as we wandered the tunnels. I was a nobody, but I wanted to be useful. I had to defend what was left. After that day, I vowed to never again be so helpless. I needed to understand breach magic, but Mist said it was uncommon for an adult to become a mage initiate. I watched the children I had saved surpass me, become prodigious mages and burn brighter than I ever imagined. When Brama selected me as commander of an expedition to the north, I was shocked. My breach magic was certainly competent, but I was nowhere near as powerful as the mages she put under my leadership. I asked her why she chose me and Brama smiled. She said that while power is important, the true mark of a leader is understanding those he leads. It was this discipline, and my familiarity with loss, that let me survive the torture of Arachnos' ritual without forgetting myself. I have watched friends die too many times. This power may be corrupted, but if I can use it to help, I won't hold back." ― Soskel
