Famous Spellcasters: Albert aka "Presto"

Name: Albert aka "Presto"
World: Earth, The Realm aka "World of Dungeons & Dragons", Abeir-Toril aka "Forgotten Realms"
Artifacts: Hat of Many Spells.

Albert was part of a group of friends that went to an amusement park and went on the "Dungeons & Dragons" ride. During the ride, he and his friends were suddenly transported to another world. There clothes had suddenly changed and they came quickly under attack. A being known as the Dungeon Master, quickly  favored them with magical artifacts. Presto was given a "Hat of Many Spells", which allowed him to cast spells.

Albert was nicked name Presto, because he was designated as the parties wizard. In school he was a bookish individual who preferred libraries and such and was a natural fit for the wizard. Sadly he suffers from poor eyesight, and he is in dire trouble if he loses his glasses.

During the course of his adventures, he does learn some magic as the power to levitate. Also he did find a soul mate in Varla, an illusionist. However, throughout the adventures he does suffer from many mishaps when attempting to use his hat. Like his companions he is constantly searching for a way home, but they never seem to find a permanent way out. However, in the end they managed to defeat Venger and earned their freedom from the realms.

However, the portal they stepped through sent them to somewhere in Kara-Tur, Abeir-Toril. The Dungeon Master had contacted a sorceress that would be their guide. Over the years they journeyed west and ended up in Faerun. By chance they meet up with Elminster in a tavern, and they attempted to get Presto an apprenticeship with the Great Mage of Shadowdale.
