 While described by many as arrogant, the young elf also has a golden tongue, able to convince people to follow him even when it is against their interests. Some believe his persuasive skills are magical. If he ever settled down he would likely make a great diplomat or trader.
-He disdains the endless lessons and prattling about caution and safety that echo from academic schools of Wizards, believing magic is like any other muscle and can only be developed through practice and experimentation. To this end he despises long research, although acknowledges the necessity for it.

To this end he despises long research, although acknowledges the necessity for it in trying to piece together the long lost history of his family.
 Contrary to his normal aloof nature, Varatas is highly protective of his family, especially his sisters. He will go to extreme, if not outright reckless, measures to protect them. When angered, Varatas has been described as vengeful and merciless, executing enemies without a hesitation.

 Secretly, Varatas is concerned that he is simply traveling the same road as his cursed ancestors, and that every step he takes is leading him down a dark path.
-In combat, Varatas relies exclusively upon his spellcasting, raining fire and lightning upon his enemies from afar. He is trained in shortswords and carries one with him at all times, but rarely even draws the weapon, preferring to incapacitate an enemy that closes on him before retreating to a safe distance.  Several observers have described his spellcasting as bombastic, with Varatas making seemingly unnecessary gestures and commands as he casts. This is actually a result of his experimental approach to spellcasting, his muscles naturally learning to cast in such a way so that casting is no different than moving his hand.

 Varatas would never publically admit it, but he cares for his older sister as much, if not more so, than his twin sister. He recognizes his sister’s willingness to take up the family affairs and business allows him and his younger sister to pursue their own endeavors outside of the family. They generally conflict over Vesti’s objections to Varatas’ seeming shirking of his family duties. The two last left on less than ideal terms, a situation Varatas wishes to remedy.
+Before he left for his mission to North, Varatas left a letter for Vesti begging forgiveness and to ensure that Vesti would prevent Aletheia from trying to follow in his footsteps.
