Name: Tam Eventine Al’Thor
Age: 60
sex: male
Race: Elven (Erodaen - not Fabian)
height: 7' 1&27/64”
Description: Slightly taller than the average elf, slim build like most elves, and is one of the strongest among even elves. His hair is brown, though no one knows how since he is without a doubt pure-blooded and all elves are fair-headed. His eyes are a steely gray (another anomaly among elves), but they turn a deep brown and almost seem to flicker like flames when he gets angry. He has very intense gaze that seems to tell of the things he has been through. He usually wears a black tunic and pants with a worn, black leather belt strapped over the tunic at his waist with a deep green great-cloak on his shoulders, clasped by a leaf-shaped broach of jade. On his wrist he wears a deep red cloth bracelet with a jade bead. He also wears a chainmail shirt and chainmail chaps underneath a strange black plate armor made of monazite, a metal created with magic and forged with even more magic, that holds off blows like heavy Kalorian armor, but it fits closer to the skin, is much lighter, and is almost what one would call flexible (like leather armor) when entering a large battle. Over it all he wears a green tabard with his personal crest and his ever-present cloak.
He wears soft, black leather hunting boots.
-Melee Weapons: he uses a bastard sword (the blade is red) in his primary hand, one dirk (the blade is swirled red and blue) which he keeps in his boot for emergencies, and another dirk (blue bladed) which he uses in his off-hand. He can use his hands if he must. It is common knowledge to the Erodaen (or at least their remains) that he is the best swordsman among them, which is saying something considering elves quicker reactions compared to humans.
All of his weapons were made by the Erodaen when they existed and his set used to have a twin set…more later…
-Ranged Weapons: an elven long-bow on his back with a leather quiver (worn on his back) and a metal (green) blow-gun for stealth (keeps magically poisoned darts in device strapped to his wrist)
Orb magics and weapon enchants: When he rose through the ranks of the Erodaen, the elven leaders went through great lengths to procure him two orbs: a fire related one that lets the owner controls already existing fire but not multiply (make more of a little bit) or diminish it (put a fire out), and a moderately powerful basic orb that pertains to water but he has not unlocked it yet. He keeps several crystals that create large balls of fire. His weapons are made with elvish magic and therefore never lose their edge.
Non-magical weapons: ?? Wouldn’t this fall under melee and ranged weapons???
Additional skills: very stealthy (scout), good hunter, has excellent thieving skills (but he doesn't use 'em), and he is a good tactician
Weaknesses: fire, wants to find his missing brother, gets into dangerous situations when trying to help people, and has an unrelenting sense of duty
Alliance: the remains of the Erodaen
Brief History: Tam is originally from The Forest Kingdom of the Erodaen, which is now long since demolished. He grew up in the capital there with his best friend - his twin brother. They trained in magic and swordsmanship from a VERY young age (8 for an elf is basically a toddler) and were expected to be the best fighters of the Erodaen when fully trained. They were extremely close and were evenly matched in every way except Tam excelled in training with fire and water while his brother equally excelled in training with earth and air. For their 18th birthday their father had two sets - a bastard sword, two dirks, and a blowgun made: one with colors of red and blue, the other with green and white. The brothers even wore bracelets where one had a red with jade and the other had blue with white. Every one thought they had unlimited and unheard of potential….
Then one day Tam and his brother ran into a party of Fabian elves while hunting in the outer reaches of the forest. They both fought but in the end Tam received a wound that rendered him unconscious and made him look dead. When he awoke, his brother and his brother’s equipment was no where to be found. He was devastated.
A much lonelier Tam continued to excel and eventual rose through the ranks of the shadows. Then in the great war his blow-gun broke in one encounter and in the end his nation was destroyed. Only a small band wanders the forests of Gorgraz hiding from all outsiders. Tam is now only loosely affiliated with them. He mostly wanders the world looking for his brother – whose blow-gun he has recently found – and wondering why the gods chose to take so much from him. He is a man who has lost everything.
Random: Tam has a stone that appears polished, is about the size of his fist, and is a swirling of red and blue in color. He doesn’t know why he keeps it.
