Zar is a professor at the esteemed Arcadia Institute in the remote region of Velandor, dedicated to studying and preserving ancient magics. His fascination with the lost art of Umbraxis—one of the five foundational magics of Xandria—grows as he uncovers traces of its remnants within the depths of a restricted laboratory. Although Umbraxis has been considered extinct for generations, lingering particles hint at its continued existence, drawing Zar into a risky pursuit of knowledge that challenges the boundaries of what is forbidden. Note: This character arc runs parallel to the main storyline in Legends of Xandria and enriches its world rather than being a completely separate story.
