Presenting Power
Persuasion: The ability to instill ideas into his victim’s minds and to be able to convince them of things. Once he’s used his powers on you, you won’t know what things in your head are your ideas or his. The only way to break free is if you are unable to accomplish his command anymore.

Appearance
The first thing Noam noticed about Lehrer when he met him was his height (He’s very tall,). He has tawny-blond hair and light gray eyes. They have a strange crystalline quality to them.

To avoid looking his age (123+ years old,), Lehrer uses magic to keep a young appearance. He has regenerative powers that keep him alive (And looking young,).
