Valmaxian is a wandering spirit drawn to places where life and death feel unsettled, such as abandoned buildings and quiet, forgotten spaces. He is a stabilizing presence rather than a harmful one.

He appears as a tall, gaunt figure in a fading coat and wide-brimmed hat, with hollow eyes that carry quiet sadness and the weight of existing between worlds.

A rusted scythe intermittently manifests with him, used to clear lingering spiritual disturbances and restore balance. Most of the time he is intangible, sensed only through cold air or subtle environmental shifts, but he can briefly take physical form when needed.

Valmaxian is polite, formal, and calm. He avoids conflict, but will defend himself or others if necessary with controlled, restrained force. He also occasionally engages in respectful, non-lethal duels purely as structured practice and sport.

His physical form is temporary; after exertion, he fades back into an intangible state to recover. In this weakened state, he becomes a simple haunting presence...unable to manifest visibly, only subtly affecting his surroundings, such as shifting air, flickering lights, or occasionally knocking objects like books from shelves.
