An esteemed professor at the Studium and an Archon no less. Any Sharlayan scholar—especially those studying Astrology—might recognize him; if not for his feats, then perhaps for his notoriety as a hedonistic gentleman.
One might ask, where is Osmund's Archon mark anyway? Take him out to dinner first and he'll show you.Oracle of Love:
Osmund's expertise lies in the analysis and divination of interpersonal relationships as they relate to the stars. There are many who would leap at the chance to receive a love reading from a pioneer of this particular field of study within Astrology.
Love Freak:
To understand Love is Osmund's driving force in life. To him, Love is beautiful in all of its forms, and he wishes to experience them all for himself. He may even willingly put himself in odd situations against his better judgment if it means experiencing an interesting facet of Love.
Bathhouse Connoisseur:
Much of Osmund's free time is spent frequenting bathhouses and saunas for their rejuvenating facilities and the pleasant company besides.

History

Osmund Airaldi is a well-regarded, yet infamous professor of Astrology from Sharlayan. Having pioneered a specialization in Astrology focusing on the divination of interpersonal relationships, Archon Airaldi is particularly known for his famed love readings, incorporating elements of ancient Ivalician Astrology in his divinations.Despite his renown and gallantry, he's fostered quite the reputation throughout his academic career as a casanova and philanderer. In fact, he has something of an obsession with the ideals of Love stemming from his lonely upbringing in a neglectful household. This fixation is what brought him to Astrology in the first place, allowing him to explore the full potential of divination for the purpose of understanding Love.Through various twists of fate over the years, Osmund has led a long and prosperous career as an Archon and educator at the Studium. And along the way, he even found the love and affection he’d always wanted in the form of a loving family to call his own: two lovers and a son the three men raised together.In present day, Osmund is content to while the latter years of his life away in leisure. Only teaching the occasional seminar at the Studium these days, he has plenty of free time that he prefers spending with family as well as on amorous escapades—with the blessing of his two beloveds, of course.
