Astrovel's first memory was waking on a slab of stone 8 years ago in a worked cave converted into a make-shift lab somewhere in the wastes. Two dead men locked in the embrace of a violent struggle lay across his legs. They had been dead for years. One dishevaled and unkept and wearing rags appeared to have died in pain with no mark on him, the other dressed like an adventurer died with a flint dagger in his heart. Searching the two, on the adventurer he found identity papers for one Astrovel Stonelock, a spellbook, and a small circuit board on a necklace that might have been a key or part of a larger device. The papers on the adventurer claimed Mister Stonelock was a member of the Techic League. Searching the cave for supplies, the recently awakened Astrovel took what he thought useful and left the cave/lab. At the first settlement he came to, he took the name Astrovel when asked for his identity, he quickly learned he should not have claimed to be a member of the Technic League as he was violently turned away. In the second town he came across, he learned from interaction with the locals that he was different. Few if any that he talked with knew of the strange blue tattoos upon his person.
After a few years of traveling the land and living off the monies and items taken from the cave, Astrovel settled in Torch. Astrovel takes temporary jobs as either a glass blower or sculptor (+8 skill in both professions) and uses his talents to repair glass structures on broken technology or to carve molds used by those who melt the strange metals recovered and smelted from the scrap. Astrovel keeps to himself and has lost many a patron/job due to his troubles with understanding and making known his desires and intentions. Astrovel is currently between jobs/ looking for a new patron and awaits the next big rush to smelt the alien metals in the flames that appear around the area.
The circuit board found upon the adventurer is used by Astrovel as his arcane focus.
