Boxer,
I dig your little insight into how Dragan might relate to various characters. I did a little of that in my prologue so far, but it was shrouded in dialogue. Following your lead, I decided to write up a little diddy about how your characters are perceived through the eyes of the npc magi. You first 
.
Florenzo finds you intriguing, and genuinely thinks you would be an asset to Andorra. They are having problems with their magical wilderness. He is not as frou-frou as he may seem, though he is taking an air of refinement as a result of his association with the Barcelona magi. He sees you as an interesting combination in contradiction. Antonio is at once both more casual and conservative that you may expect. Me may think you are strange, but if you are fierce and proud he will respect you. He may bust your balls sometimes, but he is too experienced and wise to have Diedne paranoia over every Celtic magus he meets. Carmen will think you are weird, but she thinks we are all weird. Deep down inside, she sometimes wishes she could have been a normal Jewish girl instead of a freak.
Jean-Michelle,
I recommend you do not this. Take 25 seasons instead, and you will end up with many times many more spell levels than 250.
But anyway, Florenzo has noticed you, but has categorized you as miscellaneous. More than a score of magi have come and gone in the fifty years since he was born. But he feels sorry for your disability. Antonio feels no pity for you. Rather, he admires your self reliance and determination. You have been here a while, and I can imagine you getting all “Tytalus†on grogs and stuff. He would rein you in when you do that. He has tried using Creo magic to restore your hands, but the unique nature of the Faerie curse simply will not allow that to work. You think Carmen is pushy, but you take inspiration in her courage. The two of you have girl-talk moments from time to time.
And your lab is cool!
Max,
Florenzo is suspicious of you, and worries that you will try and take over his father’s position. And his sweet lab. Florenzo is also the only one who sees the writing on the wall. Andorra’s era as a Flambeau covenant is coming to a close, and the Mercere are the natural successors. As far as your backstory, I honestly have no idea who the Neo-Mercurians are. You were born here it seems, but where were you apprenticed? If here, then we have to figure out how you relate to the missing Rodrigo. If somewhere else and you are returning here, then the two of you come from different lineages. Anyway, Antonio is impressed with your spells! You would make a fine Flambeau . He is Catholic, but he is tolerant of the fact that his fellow magi often have diverse strange religious beliefs. He may be culturally unsympathetic and say the wrong thing sometimes though. There is a chapel with a small divine lacunae (aura 1), and it also serves as a mosque or synagogue (no clergy, run your own ceremony if you want, but there is a divine presence). You won’t be allowed to worship your pagan gods here though. He will say that the rest of the castle has a magic aura for you, leave the one holy spot alone. Carmen is undecided about religion. Her father is Catholic, her mother is Jewish. She likes Judaism better, but thinks they are all wrong about a bunch of stuff. She is curious about your reinvented religion, and will ask how it works.
Scott
Antonio deliberately recruited Viola for three reasons. Foremost is the difficulties with the faerie wilderness around the other side of the mountain, and he hopes that the expertise of a Merinita maga may be the solution to the problem. It doesn’t matter if you can or cannot live up to his expectations. He sees potential in you. The second reason is those casks of faerie wine of yours. The wine is good, and as a vis source they are a handy thing to have around. He hopes you like sharing 
. And finally, well, he thinks you are a hot chick. It is that more than anything. Beware his wiley ways! Carmen has classified you as weird.
Octavius,
You may have met Florenzo just about anywhere in Iberia. He travels a lot. He stayed out of the Shadow Wars, but he did travel spend a lot of time at Duresca participating in a special library project back then. He respects you and gives you your due. Antonio thinks you are a bit stiff. He is Brave, as well as both Loyal and Wise, but he lacks your Temperance. You may not realize it, but he gives you the rigmarole just to mess with you sometimes. Like, sometimes he is giving you the “wise Archmagus†speech and you are listening intently to try and discern his hidden meaning. But really, he is just spitting out canned phrases, repeating snippets of things he read, and pulling improvised Bill Murray lines out of his arse. Carmen also thinks you are stiff. And weird. And oddly handsome.
Ken,
Aurea brings light and laughter with her. Florenzo doesn’t know what to think of you, and neither does Carmen. That’s because you have no stats yet, no personality traits or reputations (which is what I am mainly basing these knee-jerk reactions on). But Antonio’s opinion is all that matters, and he feels you belong here. He has no idea why you want to be here, but he loved having you here. The reason for that is up to you. It is easy to take a decent presence score and tigger his lechery. It would be more interesting if you were some sort of musician, such as a singer &/or a lute player. Troubadour culture is popular in this region of Spain 
It would go along excellently with your book of songs.
Jarkman
The one the only!
Muttonbone!
Florenzo is very interested in your ambitions, and Carmen doesn’t think one way or the other about you. However, Antonio doesn’t trust you. He does not say it outright, and at the request of (your benefactor), he gave you the last open spot available with open arms. He wants to keep a close eye on you.
Xavi
Florenzo sees you as a fixture. You have been around long enough and are unique enough to stand out in his memory. His opinion of you depends on seeng some stats. Same goes for Carmen. As for Antonio, he admires your unique approach but he may criticize you if you are over specialized. I dunno. We will have to wait and see
Xalbador
You are on the right path. Florenzo and Carmen recognize you as being the real deal. Antonio has high hopes for you. You show Courage, your Loyalty will be tested, and you need to work on temperance and wisdom. You can sense great things are soon to come.
Fixer
What can I say? Florenzo and Carmen thing you are weird, but you and your lineage are part of the tradition of this covenant. Antonio thinks you are awesome. You may have done some work for him at one point (no need to specify what, since you are using the efficient method). The covenant will give you extras with the understanding that you don’t price gouge us
I am totally insane running a game with 10 player characters! This is gonna be legendary!
