Nelorth Broamshoulder

Nelorth "Firefists" Sheirtalar was idealistic mage who served as the Magister during the 3 century DR. He had a brief, year-long tenure as the champion of Mystra, that ended in the Year of the Hunting Horn, 242 DR.

Description
Nelorth was an energetic young man, exceptionally so for the title of Magister, who constantly dreamed about improving the societal and power structure that surrounded the practitioners of the Art in Faerûn. He constantly came up with ideas of how to increase the importance of mages across the various Realms.

History
The naive young mage ascended to the post of Magister in the Year of the Hippogriff's Folly, 241 DR. He had the unfortunate fate of succeeding two immensely powerful Magisters, Malanthus Stormstaern and Dorgon Heamiiolothtar, known among mage-circles as the "Feeble Giants". They possessed so much personal magical prowess that no mages sought to challenge them, and the title of Magister went uncontested for nearly a century. Nelorth was viewed as an inferior successor, and was nearly immediately challenged by rival mages.

During his short tenure, Nelorth managed to hide away some powerful spellbooks and items he had recovered from the Netherese Empire. He believed these items to be too powerful to wield, but too important to destroy outright. It was believed the Sphere of spells was stashed away within one of these arcane caches.

Merely a year after he assumed the title of Magister, Nelorth was defeated and killed by the arrogant battle-mage, Weldrarn Orblin.
