Evan Talley for Mage Eneras
Eneras is a middle-aged mage, though he’s pretty good with magic he has no experience when it comes to warfare, so he is crippled by responsibility since he’s in charge of an army. His actions are cowardly and self-preserving at first, but throughout the story he learns to step up and take responsibility.

"Through my magic I have seen many a mind, each wonderful and unique. The reason I studied psychological magic was to understand and to help those with mental issues, not to develop them further… Trauma tears the mind apart… You must understand, I am not cut out for this, I’m a Mage, not a general. Please, please forgive me for making you go out there..."
