 Being quite the looker, it is not uncommon for Kristoph to encounter women who will casually flirt with him. However, he is rather oblivious to their advances most of the time much to their dismay.
 ==Skills and Abilities==
 Kristoph's primary skill is his neural interface to control clouds of nanobots which he keeps stored in a wand or staff that he carries with him. With the power of thought alone, he can think the nanobots to take virtually any shape he needs. For example, he can materialize platforms to step up on or to use as a barrier. He can also launch the nanobots as blunt objects or have them dissipate into gusts of projectiles that move at high speeds. The only limitation to this ability is his own creativity, the number of functional nanobots in his possession and the mental energy to form said nanobots into the shapes he requires. He can strain his mind if he pushes himself too hard, but over the years, he has gotten more mentally resilient. He can recharge himself with enough rest.

	'''Kristoph Langusten''' is a young noble of House Langusten - one of the floating provinces of the water world of [[Merin]]. Since he was a child, he was raised as a nanomage, an individual augmented with a neural interface allowing for telepathic control over clouds of nanobots that can be manipulated to form different shapes and be moved at different speeds. While gifted in his abilities, as a teenager, he had to put them to use in combat when the [[Virtual Wars]] spread to his home. ~~Though he~~ fought valiantly~~, he was eventually forced to flee to [[Yeddo]] when~~ the [[Insurgency]] ~~took~~ over his home.

He fought valiantly against the [[Insurgency]] who threatened to take over his home.

	~~Before he left~~, his family had made a consciousness backup of him in the event that something terrible were to happen to him. However, when the enemy forces captured the Langusten province, they used the stored consciousness backup to create an exact clone of Kristoph, except warped to serve their purposes. This clone eventually came to be known as the [[Dark Mage]], a ruthless nanomage mercenary that effectively embodied all of Kristoph's darkest thoughts and attributes.		During the war, his family had made a consciousness backup of him in the event that something terrible were to happen to him. However, when the enemy forces eventually captured the Langusten province, they used the stored consciousness backup to create an exact clone of Kristoph, except warped to serve their purposes. This clone eventually came to be known as the [[Dark Mage]], a ruthless nanomage mercenary that effectively embodied all of Kristoph's darkest thoughts and attributes. This Dark Mage went on to commit multiple crimes which caused the public to confuse him with Kristoph. Although the Dark Mage was in fact a separate person, the local police assumed that because they were essentially the same person mentally, Kristoph would still be considered a risk. Thus, Kristoph had no choice but to go into hiding. He resides under the ocean at the bottom floor of the Mages' Tower.

	Kristoph ~~joined~~ the [[~~PHIA Phorce~~]] in a chance encounter ~~while they were both trying~~ to ~~track down the Dark Mage. Initially,~~ the PHIA Phorce ~~mistook Kristoph for~~ the Dark Mage ~~resulting in a combat encounter between the two of them, but after clearing up the misunderstanding, Kristoph joined up in hopes of working together~~ to ~~find~~ his ~~rival and destroy him~~.

			While starting his new life as a researcher, he eventually came to enjoy his studies as a virtuoarchaeologist. While he regrets not having started it earlier, he is more than happy to continue to engage with the topic. Particularly, he is enthusiastic about the intricacies of the vrNet that allow him to project himself on Yeddo. He hopes to one day come to Yeddo physically, but he is unlikely to do so until the Dark Mage is caught.

	He has a peculiar affinity for sweets, especially chocolate. Because his primary abilities involve using his thoughts to control nanobots, he craves any sort of sugar very frequently.

	In most situations, he carries a wand though staves are used if he expects a more intense encounter - as staves can hold more nanobots. The nanobots also wear and tear after a long time of use where they become less receptive to commands. This can usually be remedied by either replacing his weapon or by allowing his wand/staff to perform its self-repair function on the damaged nanobots. In a pinch, should he find himself short on nanobots, he is also trained in using the wands and staves as blunt weapons.

			Kristoph's avatar projection is also comprised of nanobots. As such, he can interact with the physical world even from lightyears away, and he can use all of his inherit nanomage abilities. The one thing he cannot do remotely is experience developed sensations. Due to bandwidth limits of the vrNet server he is using, certain sensory information such as smells and touch are severely limited. For example, while he can still eat food remotely, he derives no nourishment from it and experiences only a small percentage of the sensations from eating food in person.

	Kristoph's primary skill is his neural interface to control clouds of nanobots which he keeps stored in a wand or staff that he carries with him. With the power of thought alone, he can think the nanobots to take virtually any shape he needs. For example, he can materialize platforms to step up on or to use as a barrier. He can also launch the nanobots as blunt objects or have them dissipate into gusts of projectiles that move at high speeds. The only limitation to this ability is his own creativity, the number of functional nanobots in his possession and the mental energy to form said nanobots into the shapes he requires. He can strain his mind if he pushes himself too hard, but over the years, he has gotten more mentally resilient. He can recharge himself with enough rest.

			Performing the telepathic commands requires only his thoughts, but in practice, he usually performs hand movements to help focus himself and to keep his balance. The gestures he makes helps to guide the nanobots certain ways.
