Back Story
Racolo’s parents were attending law school when they discovered he was on the way. They married, but it was a stormy relationship from the start. When Racolo was 5 years old, his mother left. His father remarried giving Racolo a stepmother and a younger stepsister, *Tia. Later, his half brother, Aless was born.
Racolo inherited magic from his grandmother. He discovered his talent accidentally when he was 13 years old. He’ had written a poem about rain and read it out loud, instantly it began to pour in his room. His father, a non-magic user, was quite distressed by this. Father and son had a challenging relationship to begin with, so it was decided Racolo would live with his grandmother, *Qualina, a powerful sorceress, who could mentor him..
Fatherhood
One day in class, a baby appeared in Racolo’s lap. This baby stared into Racolo’s eyes, smiled and vanished. No one was more astonished than he. The teacher explained that the baby had just ‘blinked’ in and out of the room. This happened everyday for a week. The wizards discovered that the baby, Lithium, was Racolo’s son by an elf. After he got over his shock, Racolo realized he wanted to raise his baby. He found a way to magically follow his son when he ‘blinked’ out. Lithium's 'keepers' were happy to sell Racolo the uncontrollable magical-child. He went through all the money Qualina had left him to buy his son. Once Lithium was happily reunited with his father, he began blinking into the home of the Lady with the Dog.
Love
Racolo liked living with his free-spirited grandmother. He soon met and fell in love with a vivacious elf named Eevette (aka Esmodonti). Qualina discovered she didn't have long to live. She thought it best for him to continue his education at Magick School and board there. After much discussion he agreed to go. Eevette was furious. They had a huge fight and she ended the relationship.
Qualina liked Eevette. She knew that Eevette’s human guardian mistreated the elf and had plans to 'adopt' her while Racolo was away. Unfortunately, time ran out for Qualina and she died. When Racolo returned, he looked for Eevette but couldn’t find her. He went back to school determined to forget her.
At the time, Racolo had no idea Lithium's mother lived here, but since his son was determined to stay, Racolo reluctantly moved in. Soon after, he ran into Eevette, now a vampire known as Esmodonti. It was not a happy reunion. Racolo couldn’t forgive her for keeping her pregnancy a secret, or for becoming a vampire (a creature the two of them once hunted) However, time passed and he saw what a good mother she is. He found a magical way to allowed her to stay awake during the day, so she could send more time with Lithium. They became closer and old grievances faded, and he popped the question. Er answer was yes. They married soon after.
Syrrah
Racolo met Syrrah while on holiday in the Elvin realm with Zyfan. He prolonged his stay to study herbal lore with the Celestial Coven. While there, he participated in the Festival of the Flower Goddess, a fertility celebration - in which everyone is encouraged to participate.
Zyfan
Racolo met Zyfan when they were students are Magick School. They were roommates. Both of them had just had their hearts broken by abruptly ended relationships. They were drinking buddies for a time and in the process became friends.
Trey taught at Magick School and recognized Racolo’s talent. He became his mentor. When he took leave of his position, to search for magical artifact in the Elvin realm, he recommended to the board that Racolo take his place.
*Tia, Qualina and Trey are no longer living in the home of the Lady with the Dog.
