ABRAXAS AU INFO.
One thing's for sure: he hasn't lost his flair of the dramatic, and is always seen with a billowing cloak trailing behind him.
Stephen is an intimidating-looking entity overall, with a dramatic flair about his darkened aura that make most mortals feel unease. That said, he comports himself in a dignified by amicable manner, and through the many, many years, he has still not lost his acerbic sense of humor.
In the moments where he loses himself in the possibilities and probabilities of magic, time, and reality, he is distant, eccentric, and unpredictable. He needs someone to bring him back down to reality in these moments of manic derailment, but overall, his closest CR should be used to this by now.
Stephen struggles to remember his old life on Earth and his responsibilities as a sorcerer of Kamar-Taj. They are faraway, distant dreams that he must rely, again, on others from home to remind him. But it never sticks, and it's safe to say that his new life exists on Abraxas, and he rarely so much as even wonders as to how his "home" universe is doing.

- Continued to learn and study Abraxan magic with increasingly voracious interest
- In very Stephen Strange style, this eventually led him down a path to seek a pact with a god, Sannleikr, Herald of the Many Faces (likely out of necessity rather than ego, likely in a time of conflict; this falls into Stephen's propensity to dabble in questionable magic if the ends justifies the means)
- The ritual to complete the pact required more than one person, and Yennefer and Thancred performed it with Stephen, thus tying them together indelibly with the threads of fate
- In the wake of this pact, he started to lose himself, became more focused and obsessed with learning and controlling his continually growing abilities, to the point of detriment. His closest CR would have noticed -- Yennefer and Thancred especially, who sought to give him balance in his worst moments
- A "worst moment" definitely happened at some point; some kind of blow up between the three of them that they probably laugh about now. Still, Stephen relies heavily on his integration with his triad to keep him level-headed when he starts to stray down the godhood rabbit hole.
- He's a god that others have no issue summoning, though it's understood that one should only do so if the situation is dire, given how the threads of time and fate itself might alter under his influence if implored too greatly
