Background: Osmund Mativ was once a well-known crime boss of a small syndicate found in (insert city name here). Though the man mostly remained unknown and behind the shadows, he grew with the unique and bizarre ability to directly control the magic cast around him, allowing him to compact spells into different forms of his liking. This power eventually allowed Osmund to rise up with great power, and also earned him the nickname of "Osmose"

The name stuck. And 'Osmose' Mativ eventually started hiring the more able-bodied folks to do his dirty work while he prepped up his hasty and unstable concoctions with little to no regard for himself or others! These concoctions contained the raw magical essence of different spells, and he eventually started making a small fortune through selling these special potions to others on the daily.

As time went on, he eventually figured that the 'industry' he found needed to grow. Thus, he began forming an actual syndicate as he hired several kidnappers, willing magi, and alchemists to manage his business. These kidnappers would specialize in stealing mages away, forcing them to cast spells so that he could liquefy their essence and separate them into unique beakers. The alchemists he hired would do most of the dirty work after he stored the basic spells together; mixing and combining different formulas to experiment with outcomes.

Needless to say, many alchemists were more than just a little harmed in this undertaking, and Osmund was eventually busted by a band of hired goons that managed to rat their way into his syndicate. Osmund was eventually met by Ulrich in the prison. Ulrich, who was impressed with his potential to provide incredible powers to the entire army, had freed him from the prison in exchange for his service.

Magic: Potion-making; capable of siphoning the magical properties out of things and storing them into compact forms. In this case, his potions.

Siphoned mana turned into a liquid state, and may burst out into a non-liquid when released.

He can mix together a certain amount of spells for different effects.
