'''Humble Beginnings'''
 
 
Angus Malcolm McAlpine, was born in Edinburgh, on the April Fools Day, 1918. The eldest child of Malcolm and Anna, Angus was a difficult child, prone to bossing his siblings around and possessing an incredible knack for getting himself in trouble. Despite his mischievousness, young McAlpine's early years were largely uneventful. Until the year 1938, when he was drafted into the British military that his life appeared to show signs of unnatural interference - he suddenly found himself incredibly lucky in games of chance, his health markedly improved and he began showing first, barely notable signs of his soon-to-be-lifelong affinity for cold. Up to the point of his disappearance in 1944, Angus achieved the rank of Sergeant in Her Majesty's Royal Navy.
 
 
What the Scottish wizard was never aware of, was that he was born an Ymirson, a member of a long line of demigods descended from the Frost Giant Ymir. It wasn't until 1944 that Angus first truly manifested his powers. 6th of June was a special day in the history of the world. The D-Day, the Normandy Landings, the Allied Counter-offensive. It was also the day Angus McAlpine began a long, restless journey that would eventually earn him the moniker of the Mad Rune of Niflheimr. Countless young men regretted taking part in the offensive. Angus was one such man. Unlike the young people, so many of them dead, Angus' feet never actually touched the sands of Normandian beaches. Instead, mere minutes before his vessel arrived at its destination, the young sergeant's fear, stress and regret over joining the war that might see him dead somewhere in a foreign country, Angus McAlpine just disappeared. Amusingly enough (for himself anyway,) one Sergeant Angus McAlpine of Her Majesty's Royal Naval Forces figures as Missing In Action on the official records to this day.
 
 
When McAlpine's powers manifested, he was ripped from Malkuth and into the Lower Astral. He awoke, indeterminate time later within a strange land. Where he ended up was not France, but Asgard, the land of the Norse Gods of Myth!
 
 
'''Student of Magic'''

Angus is a tall, middle aged man, of slim, athletic physique (akin to that of a swimmer or marathon runner.) Despite the 'fit' build, Angus gives off a vibe of a man stricken with an illness, and perhaps even undernourished, a trait that he owes mostly to his unhealthy pallor and a crisscross of scars gained from numerous battles as well as surgical removal of body-wide net of tattoos that used to cover his neck, arms and torso. And due to an old injury, his confident stride is often time broken up by a limp in his right leg.
 
 
A closer inspection only furthers the illusion of ill health haunting the Mad Rune Mage. A mess of spiky, barely contained fiery, ginger hair stands in stark contrast to the pallor and gauntness of his face. Deep set eyes, one of which is missing (the empty socket covered with a simple leather eyepatch,) are always framed by dark wrinkles, adding sleep deprivation to a list of suspected ailments troubling the wizard. His nose and lips each possess thin scars, going across the bridge and framing the left corner of his mouth, respectively. Formerly sporting a thick, fiery beard, Angus' sharp jaw and chin are left clean shaven, only accentuating the triangular shape of his face.
 
 
And yet, all the health-worries seem to dissipate as soon as the Scottish wizard speaks. His voice, a gruff, booming baritone, gives a good idea about Angus' long-lasting smoking and drinking habits, while somehow managing to give the man an air of authority, whenever it is necessary.

Snarky, sarcastic and straight-forward, Angus has more than enough to have earned himself the moniker of 'Grumpy Wizard.'
 
 
Despite that initial impression, it quickly becomes obvious that the complaining and the brusqueness are nothing more than an act, a decades-old con, which Angus has meticulously worked on pulling on people around. Because it is only when one sees through the solitary, gruff façade that can they see who the Mad Rune Mage really is. And for the most part, the real Angus is a deeply introspective, coldly calculating man, his affinity for stone-cold logic so at odds with his perceived 'shoot-first-ask-questions-later' attitude.
 
 
Another important aspect of his personality is Angus' deep seated paranoia, that stems from both his nigh-psychotic sociopathic traits as well as a form of hyper-awareness the wizard was born with. Which means that Angus is slow to put trust in people, as well as chronically difficult to deceive (or even sneak upon.)
 
 
When in the company of strangers, Angus can come off as arrogant, ready to spout off his own ideas at moment's notice, sometimes even criticize those he believes to be in the wrong. And given Mad Rune's love for sowing the seeds of discord (mostly harmless and for the sake of his amusement.) he will often confront people who Angus sees as easy to 'get a rise out of.'
