Felix

Felix is a Haven sculptor whose fire affinity, artistic profession, and reverence for the Malefic Viper combine into a highly specialized religious craft.

Biography

From fire caster to sculptor

Before the system, Felix was a struggling artist and gamer. He initially fought as a fire caster, but after burning two teammates who were assaulting a woman, the sight and smell of their injuries left him unable to use fire against living targets. He redirected that power into glasswork and sculpture, built a treehouse workshop in Haven, and accepted the settlement’s decision that one chosen artist should make its public statues. (Chapters 200, 239)

Sculptor of the Primordial Church

Felix’s interest in depicting the Malefic Viper became fervent devotion after he learned that Jake was the god’s Chosen. He sought Jake’s guidance so his work would represent the Primordial truthfully, later unveiling True Vision of the Malefic Viper’s Chosen during the Chosen ceremony. His increasingly fanatical work made him Haven’s High Priest, and his central cathedral statue eventually reached mythical quality and could channel an interaction with Jake’s poison-related power. (Chapters 255, 637, 647, 898, 904, 1275)

Appearance and personality

The corpus does not give Felix a stable physical description. His most explicit visual cues are expressive: he kneels or prostrates himself in worship, and his eyes and face visibly intensify when discussing the Viper or Jake. He is earnest and talented but socially awkward, with trauma governing his refusal to burn living beings and religious enthusiasm later hardening into open fanaticism.

Path, class, and abilities

• Fire shaping: Felix began with combat-capable fire magic, then imposed a personal limit after his traumatic rescue. He still uses heat safely in glasswork and sculpture, making the same affinity a crafting tool rather than a weapon.
• Sculpting profession: His profession rewards faithful artistic representation, material control, and the Records carried by a subject. Reaching level one hundred and later D-grade improved his professional foundation, while access to knowledgeable or blessed witnesses helped him refine divine likenesses.
• Record-bearing religious art: His Chosen statue progressed to mythical quality rather than remaining decorative. By Chapter 1275, liquid from the statue could provoke Jake’s Viper-linked poison skill, demonstrating that the work carries meaningful Records. The corpus does not state a repeatable activation cost, range, or combat application.
• Latest state: Felix remains Haven’s High Priest and an active sculptor. His greatest demonstrated growth is professional and devotional; the text does not show him returning to combat magic against living targets.

Relationships

• Jake Thayne becomes Felix’s primary living subject and the intermediary through whom he understands the Malefic Viper. Felix’s gratitude and artistic curiosity develop into worship of Jake’s status as Chosen.
• Miranda Wells governs the settlement in which Felix works and incorporates his religious art into Haven’s civic and cathedral spaces.
