L. Faba, Sage of Mischief Magic
"I have the impression that many people don't understand what I'm all about. I've been characterized as 'bad' or 'mean' because of my branch of magic: mischief. The problem with that interpretation is that it expresses a limited 'either/or' mentality that pigeonholes me as cruel and immoral. I prefer to analyze these matters through the lenses of archetypes; mine would be the 'trickster' archetype. If you know anything about mythology and folklore, it's that tricksters are neither moral or immoral; they are amoral."
"A trickster's role is to keep life from stagnating. Stagnation is very dangerous; it is the antithesis of life. To be alive is to be in constant flux. Even when you are at rest, you are still in motion: your heart beats, your lungs expand; even your atoms resonate at different frequencies. My kind of magic counters that deadly stillness, that nothingness. We, mages of mischief, have the task of being unpredictable. We destroy routines and break patterns. Through us, the unexpected materializes and, suddenly, new paths appear, new outcomes become possible. It's an act of creation, defiance, and imagination. It may be terrifying or it may be hopeful; it can be sacred or profane. But what it is for sure, always, is transformative."
"I am a being of the crossroads: of simultaneous beginnings, endings, and myriad choices. It's mysterious and fiercely beautiful. Simeon and Morgyn understand me better than anyone else. Morgyn and I share the ability to usher creativity and subversiveness through the use of primal and cataclysmic forces. Morgyn's are elemental, mine are emotional--but these forces, physical and psychological, often overlap. Simeon and I understand the delicate dance of equilibrium that must be maintained in all of creation. And he knows that even when I am 'causing mischief', it is because something must give way and be renewed, just like a storm strips trees of dead branches. Change isn't always welcome or comfortable, but it is necessary. When you are challenged, when you are led down paths you would otherwise never consider, when you are faced with the frightening or the unforeseen, that's when growth can happen. In all my spells there is opportunity: opportunity to gain an insight, to come face-to-face with your true nature, and discover an unexpected strength. It may also expose a weakness, a fragility, a deep hurt. Regardless, all these instances are teeming with opportunity that can be made into something meaningful. And that's what this dance of life is all about: becoming your truest self." -L. Faba, Sage of Mischief Magic

L. Faba
She's the Sage of Mischief Magic and the one most spellcasters tend to take the least seriously. However, Mischief Magic is all about (mostly) harmless pranks and plots of revenge, so it comes as no surprise that L. always has the largest classes out of the 3 sages. Despite her gentle appearance, L. is anything but. She's impecably upfront, immeasurably coarse and always delivers her insults with a dash of sarcasm. Yet somehow, she's fairly liked among her equals.
Her teaching methods usually involve having the students casting spells on one another and causing mayhem. She calls it teaching, Morgyn calls it her personal circus. One time, she had one of her students turn another - a particularly fussy one - into a garden gnome and refused to revert the spell until the end of the class. They all ended up forgetting about the poor kid until the following morning.
L. was left basically unscathed after the conflict with the ancients. This was all because of Simeon, who intersected a potentially fatal attack directed at her from a blind spot and that resulted in the loss of his left hand. She's since then ceased being witty and critical of him.
Leaving the Realm is easy to L. While she doesn't feel the need for ardent socialization, Morgyn does and she's more than happy to indulge them on a night out for fun and drinks. Simeon and her may have been around for longer than the average human being, but Morgyn is young, looks young and acts young, which is why L. likes to tag along. Not only is she able to witness the Sage of Untamed Magic getting plastered and making questionable decisions, she also gets to teach a lesson to the occasional handsy creep. All of which she finds incredibly entertaining.
Her eyes are a bright lilac that encompasses both Iris and pupil, and inevitably catch the attention of non-magical beings. Though spellcasters have co-existed among humans for centuries, L. still prefers to not attract unwanted attention when she leaves the Realm, choosing to conceal her real eyes by making them a human color with a little magic. Her fingertips are also permanently dusted pink, but instead of using magic to mask them, she prefers to wear gloves. Says it gives her "normal person outfits" (her words) a little pizzazz.
L. lives with Morgyn in Glimmerbrook, in a house just outside of the Realm. She's washed exactly zero dishes during her whole stay. “Pretty sure SOMEONE’s casting copypasto on those when they visit just to make me look bad.”

2, 12, 35 for Faba AND 22, 55, 56 for Morgyn!
OHOHOH let's get this party started 👀
Reminder that I'm still taking questions from this post so go crazy. I love coming up with headcanons for my little pixels.
Anyways, this is gonna get long (as usual lmao), so all answers are found under the cut:
L. Faba
2. What’s their biggest regret?
Being careless and unprepared during the conflict with the ancients. Although it wasn't entirely her fault, she firmly believes that this is what caused Simeon to impulsively jump to her aid and lose a hand in the process. Had she not been distracted, she would have been able to deflect the attack herself and Simeon would have never had to act as a shield.
This conflict has been briefly mentioned in the Sages' introduction posts here, here and here, but I'll eventually go into more detail as I start posting the story I'm writing (which will hopefully be soon 👁️👄👁️).
12. What’s their ideal vacation like?
Anywhere but the beach. L. does not tan, so overexposure to the sun will basically make her look like a lobster out of the sea. With this in mind, she'd much rather prefer to spend a full two weeks somewhere surrounded by nature (think Henford-on-Bagley), preferably on her own. Though she certainly wouldn't mind to have Morgyn tag along. As much as she enjoys the calm a place like that provides, she also knows she'll quickly get bored of it and the young Sage of Untamed magic is the perfect person to keep things interesting.
35. Do/did they want children?
Heck no. Despite loving to teach, L. literally cannot stand to be around young children. It's not that she doesn't LIKE children, she just has massive mental breakdowns whenever around them.
"Why are you crying? Oh god please stop crying. No, that's spider venom, you cannot drink that. Get your hands off my hair. Why are they sticky? WHY ARE YOU SWIMMING IN MY CAULDRON, WHO BIRTHED YOU, SIMEON HELP-"
ᎷᎧᏒᎶᎩᏁ ᏋᎷᏰᏋᏒ
22. Are they a dog person or a cat person — or something else?
Morgyn is 100% a dog person and absolutely adores bigger breeds. They actually have a dog of their own, named Asmodeus. He's a Dobermann who looks a fair bit intimidating but is nothing more than a silly goofball that accidentally breaks way too many things around the house.
Behold, the beast himself and a casual Morgyn after a hard day's work. Not my best screenshot, but I really wanted to share this cute moment <3
55. Who do they look up to most?
Tess Dyer, the previous Sage of Untamed Magic. Or at least they used to, before she disappeared without a trace. She was practically family, given that she'd taken Morgyn under her wing when they first showed up at the Magic Realm as a teenager, with the aspiring dream of becoming a spellcaster. Not only was she an incredibly gentle soul towards Morgyn, she was also the most powerful spellcaster at the time. Highly respected and incredibly patient, but undeniably strict all the same. At this point it's safe to say that Morgyn has followed in her steps and the spellcaster community regards them in a similar manner today.
56. What do they smell like?
When they're not swimming in some expensive designer fragrance? Something close to cinammon and burning firewood. It's an incredibly comforting scent that a certain someone enjoys a little bit too much eheh I wanna start posting screenshots of the two of them so bad but I need to write it down first so it makes sense, hELP
Trap your books when I walk in Magic talks, without talking I'll make the most before the coffin
And don't you know That we are Gods And holy blood Runs through our veins
The three sages
In my image, they seem to have a disagreement...
They remembered the shared memories and enjoyed the conversation.
...L made Morgyn cry when I thought so. As early as the balance of power is a crisis of collapse. Oh...
モーギンさん、可愛いけど...でも何か言い返さないと！早くも力の均衡が崩壊の危機です。
