Family Biography:
The Gatlin family is an ancient lineage of magi, dating back over five centuries. With a magic crest that has endured for approximately 510 years, their legacy is built upon their mastery of the elements of water and wind. Though not the most politically powerful magus family, the Gatlins have maintained a reputation for producing highly skilled, adaptable magi, known for their finesse in elemental magecraft. Their crest, while old and well-maintained, is centered on unique and refined magecraft techniques passed down through generations.
Origins and Early History The Gatlin family's origins trace back to a remote coastal region in northern Europe, where they first made their mark by harnessing the destructive forces of the sea and wind to protect their territory from invaders. The family's early magecraft focused on seafaring protection-using water to control the tides and storms to disrupt enemy fleets. Over time, their prowess in manipulating these natural elements earned them a place among the prominent magus families of the region.
Throughout the 16th and 17th centuries, the family became known for their research into alchemy and elemental convergence, particularly the balance between water and wind. Their innovations in combining elemental forces with alchemical transformations allowed them to create storm-based homunculi and develop magecraft capable of altering weather patterns over large regions.
The Rise of the Gatlin Family
By the 18th century, the Gatlin family had established themselves as a scholarly, if somewhat isolated, group. Their crest, passed from one head of the family to the next, became synonymous with versatility and fluid combat tactics. However, their preference for avoiding magus politics and maintaining neutrality during conflicts allowed them to focus on their craft rather than embroil themselves in larger disputes.
The crest itself has evolved over the centuries, with every head of the family adding improvements and modifications to enhance the family's capabilities in magecraft. By the time Jackson Gatlin became the current head, the crest had developed a refined method of controlling both large-scale natural disasters (storms, floods, etc.) and smaller, more precise elemental manipulations (wind blades, mist-based illusions). Despite the age of the crest, the number of magic circuits in the family is only B-rated, though the quality of those circuits is A, meaning the Gatlins emphasize precision and potency over sheer quantity of spells.
Personality: Jackson is a carefree man, someone who wants to relax and just be chill, he is the type, that would be friendly to his customers and friends alike, pretty much he is just a chill guy.
