Tomb Riding Martin Covarrubias often stumbles upon cursed relics tied to hidden legacies, forbidden magic, or long-buried secrets. His discoveries could spark political intrigue, awaken ancient spirits, or trigger magical plagues, forcing him into roles as both solver and survivor.
Signature Motif.
Observation. Martin’s defining trait is his sharp observation and quick thinking, allowing him to read magical traps, social cues, or dueling opponents in seconds. Known for improvising clever spell combinations on the fly, his brilliance often shines brightest in chaotic, high-stakes moments.
Perfect for...
Adventure plots. Martin thrives in adventure-mystery tales with magical archaeology, blending danger with wit. Genres like dark fantasy or magical noir suit him, especially stories exploring lost civilizations, ethical dilemmas in magic use, or reconciling personal legacy with chosen destiny.
Goal
Discovery.
Martin seeks to uncover the origins of a mysterious curse he encountered during an expedition in Egypt—an incantation with no known lineage in modern magical theory. Understanding its purpose and source could unlock ancient magical knowledge or reveal forgotten branches of magical evolution.
obstacle
Politics.
The spell is tied to a lost magical language suppressed by the International Mage Confederation due to its volatile nature. As Martin digs deeper, he faces pressure from political bodies warning him to stop, while deciphering the spell risks corrupting his own magic or mind.
