Balden hmm...
The first thing I get from looking at this guy is that he's an aristocrat. I can't see his crazy, mad personality which could be a good thing of showing a, 'He can't be that bad of a guy' look to the other characters. I do like the way you made him able to use both physical and magical abilities. All in all, I think you made a cunning villain that should be a force to recon with.
I'm all eyes
