What is the first impression people have of Lowie?
Intelligent: He learns magic at an astonishing speed.
Delicate: He has never gotten into a physical altercation with a martial-class character.
Thirsting for knowledge: He loves practical learning that takes him on long journeys.
[It follows that I am a very typical mage,] Lowie said.
[As long as you're happy,] said Lowie's mind-dwelling friend, his live-in old-timer, his external brain, and his very hands-on private tutor.
Reading Tips:
1. The pairing is already set: it's the live-in old-timer
2. The protagonist isn't human
3. The protagonist seems rather aloof around others because he isn't very good at the common tongue
4. The setting is mainly based on D&D, but includes many original elements. There are no spell slots
5. The author loves praise. Feel free to offer suggestions tactfully, but please don't attack me personally QAQ
