Navilland Hruppe was a normal human, a scholar of music and magic, who was a master spellsinger. And then, the Champion of Music found him and explained to him what she needed: an entire school of spellsingers, all dedicated to euphony, communication, harmony, and sonics. People who wanted to study music and magic would all be welcome, and the best of the best would be recruited for her Spellsinger Agency, a group of elite musical magic-users dedicated to her Aspect. Navilland agreed, and ever since, he has been her Hand and leading expert and adviser.
