OVERVIEW:
Still very much a child to the rest of his race, Echo is a one of a kind Fae. Born from the last remaining flower in a barren landscape, he was the final breath of life from an old Fae battlefield. His flower died after birthing him, gifting it's life rather than taking his. Echo flew from the land and searched the Fae realm for a new home. In his travels, he heard stories of other worlds, rife with beings who lived apart from the natural world. Tired from the life of an outcast as an unbound Fae, he eventually found himself in The Ridge. Echo immediately knew that he was meant to be there. Now, the unbound Fae enjoys a life of his own making. He returns to the wild lands outside of The Ridge to grow the crops he needs for his stall, but feels at home in town, selling his wares and connecting with people and races of all kinds. He brings a smile to most faces and can't help but feel that the Fae who would call him a traitor to nature are missing out on whole other kind of beauty in the people of The Ridge. There are others like him, who are no longer tethered to the flora that they were born from, but none who were born that way. Sometimes Echo feels lonely on his circumstances, but mostly blessed with a freedom that no other Fae knows.
CONNECTIONS:
Dax Loran - It was Dax who had first approached Echo upon meeting, not that Echo wouldn’t have eventually succumbed to the urge to introduce himself to every new face, but it was that forwardness that made the human seem so ... different. Echo wants to get to know him better, but the Fae is also fearful of what they might find if they succeed.
Victoria Amberstone- Echo loves humans, he loves their resolve, their drive, their resourcefulness. The way they live is fascinating to him and in his efforts to assimilate into human society he met Victoria. In his mind, the strongest human in The Ridge. Echo didn't know what it was to have familial connection, but he had heard about it, and heard the feeling of loss described. This painted the picture of Victoria's strength for him. He hopes to help her find a new meaning beyond what she has lost, like his did.
Hiba Keboos - It's extremely uncharacteristic of Echo not to trust, which makes it all the more confusing to him that he doesn't feel he can trust Hiba. He can't put his finger on it but something about their smile is different to anyone else's and it gives Echo the creeps.
MENTIONS: Marylou Dale, Rhaeda Alroot
