Veran

Veran's ergoplasm is a stable type with high structural discipline and controlled energy release. The body produces energy-rich plasma in the circulatory system, where it undergoes a biomagical activation phase through neural-impulse synchronization. Unlike unstable carriers, the release does not occur in pulses, but as a uniform flow, subject to pre-formed mental matrices.
After leaving the body, ergoplasma does not lose its integrity, but condenses into Red Matter—a universal substance capable of transitioning between states of aggregation: solid, liquid, gaseous, and plasma. These transitions occur without structural disruption, due to an internal restructuring of density and energy saturation.
Veran's Red Materia possesses high stability and low entropy. It retains its shape even when partially dispersed, allowing it to be used as autonomous constructs. The user can control its geometry, density, rigidity, and degree of internal stress. The Materia is capable of forming melee and ranged weapons, protective barriers, containment structures, and complex battlefield engineering structures.
The key feature is matrix control. Veran doesn't "sculpt" the Red Matter in real time, but rather forms structural templates in the mind beforehand, which the Ergoplasma reproduces upon activation. This reduces the load on the nervous system and ensures high precision even with multiple active objects.
The system requires strict control of blood and energy consumption: prolonged maintenance of complex structures leads to gradual depletion of the body, a decrease in the rate of ergoplasm generation, and a drop in the density of the Red Matter. Critical overload can lead to partial breakdown of the structures and a temporary "zeroing" of the active matrices.
Thus, Ergoplasma Verana is not a chaotic force, but a biologically integrated system of structural production of matter, oriented towards precision, stability

Activity and specialty #1: Highly qualified mentor of the Black Dragon. The Black Dragon is an illegal mercenary organization that has established significant influence in southern Germany. Its leader, Berthold Kenway, is an experienced warrior and leader with whom Veran has developed a close friendship, which is why Veran has achieved such a high status not only through his own efforts. Laierhag is a huge castle that serves as royal apartments. The Black Dragon purchased it for a considerable sum of money to transform it into a home for some of his allies and also into a large barracks. Veran resides there to this day.

Occupation and profession #2: Lecturer at the Frankfurt Engineering Academy. This profession only served as a cover for the first. Why? To hide from the eyes of a shitload of "honest" people who want not the Black Dragon's collapse, but its subjugation.

A tall and slender young man with refined facial features.
Long, silvery-white hair, reaching almost to her shoulders and below. The hairstyle is slightly tousled, with numerous spiky strands and long bangs that partially obscure her eyes.
The eyebrows are light, almost white, matching the color of the hair.
Eyes of a golden-amber hue with a thoughtful, slightly tired look.
The skin is fair, without noticeable scars or other features.
The lips are slightly parted, which gives the facial expression a detachment and calmness.
Several small earrings are visible on the left ear.
He is dressed in dark clothing, reminiscent of a uniform or a military cloak: a high black collar covers the neck, and a dark jacket with decorative elements is worn over it.
There is a patch with the letter "B" on the sleeve.
The overall look combines elegance and severity, creating the impression of an experienced fighter, officer or mysterious aristocrat.

Veran is a confident, dominant, and extremely straightforward person. He dislikes hints, omissions, and diplomatic games. If he has an opinion, he'll say it straight to your face.
He can't be called rude on purpose - he simply doesn't see the need to soften the truth.
He respects competence regardless of age, status or background.
Doesn't like whiners and people who are constantly looking for excuses.
Can't stand hypocrisy.
Prefers open conflict to hidden hostility.
If he doesn't like a person, he usually finds out about it right away.

Veran doesn't command with shouts or threats. He simply acts as if he's already in charge.
He rarely raises his voice in an argument. Instead, he calmly dissects others' arguments until the other person becomes more irritated than he is.
His straightforwardness often creates problems.
He can:
accidentally hurt an ally's feelings;
ruin negotiations with one honest phrase;
to say what others would prefer to remain silent about.
And then you sincerely don’t understand why people were offended.
Veran An Craite is a man who looks his interlocutor straight in the eye and says exactly what he thinks. Self-assured, charismatic, brazen, and accustomed to being in control of the situation. Not cruel or arrogant for the sake of arrogance, but so honest and self-assured that many find him arrogant. You can hate him, you can respect him, but you usually can't ignore him.

In Veran's eyes, Karla is one of the most unconventional and difficult to control fighters he has ever worked with in Laierhag.
He sees in her a combination of high efficiency and constant internal resistance to the system. Karla demonstrates outstanding physical attributes, resilience, and a rare ability to maintain results even under pressure, yet she almost always operates by her own rules.
For Veran, she's not "chaotic," but rather an overly independent individual who constantly tests the limits of what's acceptable. He perceives her audacity not as an emotion, but as a tool for pressuring others. Her stubbornness is a risk factor in teamwork, but also a source of her high survivability.
Veran particularly notes her habit of not bending under authority. Even when acknowledging the strength and experience of others, Carla remains consistent with her own approach, making her a challenge for traditional mentoring.
At the same time, he cannot deny her effectiveness: in real-world tasks, she consistently shows a level above average and rarely fails missions unless she is constrained by overly strict limits.
Carla perceives Veran as an experienced but overly structured mentor who tries to keep the system within strict boundaries.
She acknowledges his competence and combat experience, particularly in matters of tactics, discipline, and force control, but she doesn't accept him as an absolute authority. For her, he's more of a guide than a command.
However, this isn't a conflict in the literal sense. Carla isn't trying to undermine his authority, and Veran isn't trying to completely suppress her—both understand that her effectiveness is too great to ignore.
The outcome of their relationship can be described as a constant professional confrontation with mutual recognition of power, where neither side dominates completely, but both influence each other in work situations.
