Baelius Rubinder attends his own tasks for the Lumos Circle on the Summit Ward, working in the administrative wing of the Citadel and frequently moving between there and the library of Astralreach Academy, Conjuction.
Baelius Rubinder was the Master of Arcana in Sedesend within the Lumos Circle. He was an older Human with pale skin, pushed back silver hair, and a stern expressionunder a pair of small, circular spectacles. He often wore a brown vest over a blue doublet and black tie, always appearing dignified and proper.
Baelius Rubinder served on the Lumos Circle to advise the emperor on arcana research, both conducted by the members of Astralreach Academy and more independent research happening across Olessar, like studies conducted at the College of the Swan and studies of arcana across the continent. He also advised on misuse of arcana: troubling signs of magic use in settlements, like the issues Magnus "Johnson" Thaumalor investigated from Vaati, Ra'Munda, and Highbrothers (The Power of Prodigies path).
Baelius Rubinder had unparalleled access to magical research and histories, with intimate and detailed knowledge of Cabalum-era magic, including the origins of magic as granted by the Deities. He also had a voice within the Lumos Circle and had significant influence on the political direction of Olessar as an empire.
