(No matter how I change this setup, it's so painfully chuuni. It's enough to make me want to dig out a whole apartment. If I have time, I might rewrite it extensively. For now, I'm shelving it.)
Saturn Carroll grew up in an orphanage. Because his way of thinking didn't fit in, he was ostracized by a bunch of kids. In the middle of all this, Saturn discovered he had abilities beyond those of ordinary people... Not great. This was the standard start for a gloomy villain.
To escape his villainous fate, Saturn worked hard to get into Britain's top university and stubbornly cultivated the persona of a sunny young lad. Thanks to his extraordinary sensitivity to geometry, he became an excellent aspiring balding academic.
Until one day, an owl fell in front of him as he traveled across the ocean to give a presentation. Saturn: Was this a scam?
On the day the world was reshaped, he stumbled into a magical adventure, planning to use his old tricks to deal with the professors. But why were they looking at him so strangely? The weird people from his childhood had all been criminals on the run? I'm really not the Dark Lord!
