Elutian is an Elf often seen in Ferrell and T'Nanshi working, whether it be creating weapons, bows or clothing.

Appearance and personality

Elutian

Elutian is of average height, if not slightly short for a male Elf, standing about five feet tall. He has very red hair which he generally wears with bangs long enough to cover his eyes. He will tell you its so no one can tell where he's looking. He has an athletic build, strong, but more built for speed. To most, especially humans, he appears to be about thirty years old, however, his actual age is unknown, even to him. He can approximate it to about two hundred years, maybe a few more. He wears only a few colors in general, preferring greens and black. He rarely, if ever will be seen in metal armor of any kind. He carries a bow that he has had as long as he can remember, but has two blades that he only recently acquired. He tends to seem a bit awkward, especially around pretty women, but he is social. He carries himself like someone with just a bit of confidence, but doesn't want you to get too close. He is constantly watching and listening around him. Elutian is friendly, even slightly silly at times. Always willing to help if he can, even if somewhat unsure of his abilities. He is quick to laugh, and always has a smile for everyone he meets. Those who know him well, know there is more going on behind that smile however.

Early life

Elutian

Elutian's early life was difficult. He was constantly chastised by the other children for being a "runt", an obvious dig at his small stature. He in turn, rebelled when he could, and came up with nasty little contraptions to get even with the other children. This led to him being expelled from school after school, much to the dismay of his parents. He eventually was sent to a boarding school, and labelled a "problem child". The teasing did not stop there however, it became much worse. He still made small traps and devices to protect himself and get back at the bullies, but now had to be more clever in his finding of the parts for these devices. He learned to move without making a sound and hide in corners and shadows so as not to be seen. He also learned that his small stature was a boon to his new skills! In time, he was able to pick the locks all over the school, gaining him access to all sorts of tools and..... weapons. One particular bully was particularly cruel to Elutian. After repeatedly attacking and pummeling Elutian, just for his size, this bully one day pulled a crude knife on him. This was the last straw. Elutian could hold out no longer. While the child slept, Elutian set traps all around the child's bed, his dresser, his closet, his chest of drawers, anywhere that the bully would go. He then used his skills of lockpicking and stealth to escape the school, never to return. To this day, he has no idea what happened to that child and feels a bit guilty about what 'may' have occurred.

After his escape, Elutian traveled from town to town, doing odd jobs, thieving, doing whatever he could to survive. Along the way, he met with several bands of adventurers of all types and acquired a beautiful Elven Longbow, which he still carries. He also learned to use it well, and was taught where to hit an enemy to cause the most pain and incapacitate them quickest. This, combined with his skills of hiding and being "unseen",as well as his prowess with locks and traps, made him a formidable foe and a highly sought after trapper and locksmith among the bandit gangs. He spent many years this way, then, one day, decided to change his ways a bit. He wanted to see the cities....have a home, maybe a wife? He went to Elysia, met a few people and started on his way to that goal.

Current

Elutian currently resides at the Port Hole in Ferrell, but has rooms in most major cities, just in case. He has traveled extensively through the known parts of Negaria, Ysgard, Hala, and even parts of Arkaz.

Over the last few years he has befriended some people who helped to shape his life. Tessa Tangletoe, his closest ally and friend, a Fegallian halfling. Together they go on "adventures" where they find new components to make things with or new foes to battle with. Rain Merstin, a Duid halfling, she and Tess are very close friends, and Lute has taken a liking to her as well. Eleanor, of the Warrior Maidens. Lute looks up to El, she almost treats him like her own child, teaching as well as chastising him. He trusts her, and her judgement. Davilia Chert, of Le'Nofaythen and ROTE. Davi was the first person to ever offer Elutian a position gained solely by trust. She offered him a position at ROTE, where he now works alongside Tess. This touched him more deeply that he has ever told anyone. He has since become quite the weaponsmith, blacksmith, tailor, and carpenter. It was Davi's influence that led him to have a better understanding of nature and the world around him. She also taught him to use swords, and not just one sword, but two at the same time. He is still working on this style, but is getting quite good.

Elutian has made many friends along the way, too numerous to mention all of them here. He was recently inducted into FEAT, which he is very proud to be a member of. He feels that it is his duty to help defend Ferrell if he can and does so willingly. Elutian is a strong protector of his friends, and will never leave someone when they are down, instead putting himself in jeopardy to help get them away from whatever danger is present.

Several months ago, Elutian found the world just too.... well... something. He tried to retire from adventuring and settle down. He got bored, so he came back to ROTE, and is taking up adventuring once more.
