Here's Urion on a very thrifted wizard-core outfit! Based on few pieces we found while searching second-hand stores. Even if I couldn't get clothes, I get to put them on my OC, as a treat. Despite the looks, Urion is actually a (drow/earth genasi) bard. But everyone can be a funky wizard, as a treat!!
