Rudolfus the Strange “They say curiosity killed the cat, but I don’t think the proverbial cat knew how to conjure hexes.” – Rudolfus the Strange Favourite spell: Certain Death Spray A dangerous spell with dangerous effects for its caster. But happily enough, Rudolfus loves dancing on the edge of trouble. A student of the sinister death magics, Rudolfus is aspiring to become a warlock. As for his background, no one knows where he came from. There’s also some speculation whether or not he is a werecat, or a cat turned into a man, or a man turned into a cat; […]
Gislan of Alcyon “By the groves of Alcyon, we will find those Parchments!” – Gislan of Alcyon Favourite spell: Poison Flower There is something satisfying about planting flowers, and Gislan does not discriminate when it comes to what kind of flowers are in question. Gislan is the youngest member of a coven of verdant witches. She hails from Alcyon, the sacred island of trees, and was sent to the Astral Academy as part of an exchange program – the witches share their knowledge of the verdant healing arts with one of the wizards in exchange for the wisdom imparted upon […]
Marvek the Torrid “When I was young, the roads were even longer, and all uphill!” – Marvek, on the path of adventure Favourite spell: Huge Fireball Convenient when baking multiple batches of cookies. Also useful for incinerating monsters! And teammates. Marvek had it all planned. Just a few more busy years of running their small bakery, and after that he and his wife Poppy could retire to a small beach house. Those golden years dreams went up in smoke when Marvek’s magical talents manifested for the first time. An accidental fireball burned the bakery to a crisp and left him […]

Cornelius Crownsteed “Nobody will laugh when I collect my Nine Parchments!” – Cornelius of the noble house of Crownsteed Favourite spell: Small Fireball They may be small, but they still count as fireballs! A group of would-be wizards are studying in the hallowed halls of the Astral Academy, each eager to complete their spellbooks with nine spell parchments. When an unfortunate incident takes place in the Academy Library, the students have an opportune moment to skip tedious classes and graduate much faster than they could have hoped for. One of these initiative-taking students is young lord Crownsteed, who is hoping […]
Boom! It’s official – Nine Parchments is heading to Nintendo Switch later this year! We’ve been super happy with how Has-Been Heroes has done on Switch since the launch, so we’re very excited about bringing Nine Parchments there as well. (It’s a really cool system!)
