General Knowledge
Varysham has some sort of association with the Red Wizards of Thay, as he wears the robes and trappings of a higher-ranking member of that order. His face has been seen by very few, and each time the description given varies. Things like his height, weight, even voice tend to change from time to time, the voice change being the one most have witnessed as it comes with no warning, even to the point of happening in the middle of a conversation. He tends to seem very oblivious to emotions and reactions of others, rarely exhibiting any emotion of his own. Varysham has shown to have great skill in more than one school of magic, able to read and decipher the most powerful books and relics of transmutation, evocation, and divination, and to a lesser extent in enchantment and abjuration. Along with his vast skill in the arcane, he is also a very skilled weaponsmith that creates arms that are simple in design but as deadly as the greatest of dwarven creations.

Varysham keeps mostly to himself, the only exceptions being his hellhound familair Xivm, and his apprentices Shava Moonwhisper and Elaryia Magnan. Shava is his most accomplished student, and therefore is closer and knows more about Varysham than any others. He is known to offer assistance to up and coming wizards and sorcerers in the form of magical scrolls and equipment, and any who wish to become an apprentice of his should be sure of their own knowledge.

He seems to have some knowledge or connection to the Red Wizard Maligor, as he has mentioned his name in passing a few times.

Before The End of An Age
Varysham appeared in the city of Helzbelt some months before it's destruction as a member of the Arcanists' Guild. He took the moon elf Shava Moonwhisper as an apprentice, instructing her in how to get the most effect from her limited range of spells as sorcerer and combine them with swordplay. The fledgling wizard Elaryia Mangnan would become his apprentice shortly before the magical cataclysm.
