Background:
Coran is a happy go-lucky kind of guy who has one serious weakness: water. Maybe it was because his mother loved to give him baths, or perhaps because he was made to learn how to swim at an early age, or maybe it was that encounter with the water folk. Regardless, the touch (or should I say caress) of water on his skin is a definate turn-on. His inability to cast spells while in contact with water is because he is simply too distracted to do anything but enjoy it. Likewise, since water is the source of his pleasure, it should come as no surprise that when his thoughts turn to death and destruction he thinks of fire.

This dichotomy is evident in everything he does. He sincerly believes that everyone is made of opposing forces that are made to complement each other; a sort of ying and yang philosophy. His manner and attitude, while always pleasant, reflect this as well. He seeks pleasure and vices of all kinds, and yet is also studious in his skills. He has picked up a talent for musical instruments and singing, and often uses these skills to emulate a bard or just to gain favor with the ladies.

Both of his parents are still alive, and live in xxxx. They are merchants of a sort, providing rare services and fulfilling the needs of their customers. They've been called brokers, fencers, match-makers, and at times bounty-hunters, though they always try to avoid getting directly involved. In his short life, Coran has seen quite a bit, some of which he'd rather sooner not see again. Knowing the evil that lurks in some people's hearts makes kindness seem that much sweeter.

At a young age he was apprenticed to the mage Farin, partly because his parents couldn't have him at home meddling with their affairs, and partly because they know all too well the price that magic commands. He was a very apt pupil, and took to his studies with diligence. His drive and motivation came not so much from the lure of power but rather from unadulterated lust, for he quickly realized how magic could fulfill his needs. He is a pleasure seeker above all.

He's currently decided to strike out on his own and join a group of adventurers. He's finished his studies and learnt as much as Farin could teach him, and has decided to seek out further knowledge. Of course if he were to gain fame and recognition in the process, it wouldn't hurt either.
