"I'd put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don't have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that."

-- thomas edison

Growing up, Sage was raised by both his witch mother and demon father. The demon insisted that his son be home schooled in their strict, but relatively loving household. Contrary to what many would assume, the boy actually enjoyed it - though he may not have if his father was a more permanent fixture in the house. Even so, he loved both his parents and appreciated the lessons they were teaching him.

After graduating high school, Sage went to college to pursue a degree in renewable energy engineering. While experiencing the first real freedom of his life, he discovered the joys of vlogging. As his popularity rose, his goals shifted from creating renewable energy to lobbying for it. After graduating, he started to focus on his YouTube channel full time and uses it to raise money for charities or funding different science studies.

He chose to move to Silverwood for the privacy more than anything. Now that he's older, he's ready to learn more about his roots and history. Most of the time, if he's not working, he's learning magic. Despite the patronage of his father, his mother made sure that her son was kind and warm-hearted; overall he's friendly, but has a tendency to bottle his temper until it explodes.

"you're gonna be happy," said life, "but first, i'll make you strong."

you can choose courage or you can choose comfort; you cannot have both.

  1. Sage has two tattoos; a light bulb containing a windmill instead of the filament on his left inner forearm and a solar system half-sleeve wrapped around his right forearm.

  2. Sage has incredible beginner's luck and is also a quick learner. As a result, he's not used to losing and doesn't much like it.

  3. He's fluent in English, Korean, Spanish, French, and Italian.

  4. Even though he abandoned his dreams to work as an engineer, he still designs turbines and solar panels in his free time, and keeps a sketchpad around for this reason.

  5. The projects that Sage typically raises money for are either space exploration or renewable energy; he firmly believes that one of these two options are the only chance humanity has at longevity.

Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will change forever.
