Background:
Ilija Borisov was born in Ustalav, on the world of Golarion, the son of a young baronet and his newly wedded wife. Shortly before his birth, an attack by a nosferatu killed his father and wounded his mother. She survived long enough to give birth, and once the priestess of Pharasma had declared that the child would live -- and, indeed, was alive -- he was taken in by his grandfather, the baron, and raised by his manor staff.
When he was old enough, the baron sent Ilija off to boarding school, to study wizardry. Ilija took to the library well, but detested the classroom, and upon coming of age he requested a sum of gold in lieu of a living at the family estate and vanished over the mist-shrouded West Sellen River into Numeria.
Having been fascinated since childhood by the impossible technologies of the Numerian ruins, Ilija sought out and joined the Technic League with the intention of becoming a technomancer. He distinguished himself among their novices, earning the right to carry a Numerian sword he’d unearthed. His colleagues nicknamed the weapon ‘Doloras’ Quill’ after the Lady of Pain, in honor of Ilija’s dispassionate and often ascetic focus upon his research.
At the beginning of the campaign, Ilija is traveling throughout Numeria under the auspices of the League, aiding his superiors’ thaumaturgical and technological studies.
Personality:
Ilija is quiet, always seeming lost in his thoughts, but he does not begrudge intrusion into his musings and is a willing and able conversationalist. He knows that he is unpleasant to look upon and hear, and this makes him both slow to engage with others and enthusiastic in his response to those who approach him.
Obsessed by matters electrical, magnetic, and mechanical, biology and other scientific questions of the flesh bore Ilija, a reflection of his annoyance with the failings of his own frail body. He sees the first hints of a solution to his condition in mechanical lifeforms like androids and the created, and has already assisted in numerous android vivisections.
He is not cruel by nature -- he simply believes that the lifeforce of these ‘machines’ -- and their pain -- are complex simulations effected by masterful automata, and not by a soul. Although not particularly an animal lover, he’d never dream of treating a ‘living’ creature in the same way.
Appearance:
Ilija is still young and can pass for an ill-favored human, but his skin has a cold grey pallor, and his finely trimmed fingernails are dark and unusually strong. His eyes are a feral blue-white, and they are sunken in their sockets beneath bushy white brows, emphasizing a narrow, aquiline nose. His cheeks are likewise hollow, and instead of having two distinct long canines, all of his teeth are sharply pointed. Ilija’s condition has made a mockery of his hair, so he shaves what is left of it and covers his head with a black scarf that can also protect and conceal his face.
Numeria is a colder region, and Ilija dresses heavily regardless of season both to help mitigate his sensitivity to sunlight and to endure the rigors of wasteland archeology. He wears a heavy leather longcoat and trousers, lined with pockets and pouches; fine leather gloves, so as not to interfere with work requiring dexterity; thick-soled traveling boots; and a wide-brimmed akubra, under the brim of which Ilija peers out through dark smoked-glass spectacles.
((Inspiration is a bit of The Shadow and a bit of Toht from Raiders of the Lost Ark))

- I've updated Ilija's edges and hindrances to SWADE -- I still need to go over the attribute, trait, and equipment rules.
