ESTERA CHARACTER: VASLIK FIERO
Character Name: Vaslik Fiero
Physical Appearance: Stark white hair with dark grey skin and pale white eyes. He is generally lean and fit with three scars on his cheek from a “rabid monster attack”.
Religion: The religion Vaslik worships is a religion only known and worshipped by a minor percentage of the elven population. It is called Animaxia and will be expanded on as the story progresses. It features a main goddess, Axiam. She is the goddess of shadows and life, and apparently reigns over all. He performs a ritual at dusk which he does religiously. It is only overlooked when a massive event is about to occur, there’s a person he really needs to talk to or he just physically can’t. The religion also involves the wearing of only the shades of black and white. Color is a luxury to him, only to be given by outsiders.
Power: He has a penchant for the gift of tongues, passed down. He can also do minor telekinesis and levitate two feet off the ground. These powers were family traits apparently, as his mother can float and his father’s grandmother was a psionic.
Bio: Vaslik hails from the continent of Skylend , the mountainous Far Fall region. He wanted to venture out into the world and know other races and people. His family, as his father taught him, was in the Royal Court of something or other and constantly lectured him about propriety and how to sit and be a good little elf. Obviously, he did not give two shits about what his father told him about Noire Maryse of the Illythian Clan, first of her name, yadda yadda and decided that he would rather study the world and the people in it. His mother approved somewhat, but was always told that, “My son would make a great consort for you *insert high elf/royal elf here*! He cooks and cleans and is generally obedient! *proceeds to list possible work for son to get them into a position of political power within the council*”
In secret, he bought books about the lands and cultures. He also frequented talking to humans and wood elves about their cultures and ways of life. When this was discovered, his parents freaked out and subsequently grounded him for fifteen years. He was so fed up that he took books, a hoard of cash, a sword and general survival things. Now 65, he ended up in the city of Estera with a wood elf and a job apprenticing a scholar.
Job: Apprentice for a professor at a college in Estera. He loves apprenticing and reading the old manuscripts. The history and culture is very interesting to him and tries to keep up with the technological advancements. He hasn’t figured out to work a laptop, but he didn’t break one in weeks so, that’s an improvement.
Notes: Though Vaslik is from a high family, he is usually a huge ditz and is confused by technology. He has impeccable manners and can take you to a book on any topic any time. He loves human coffee and will down it in a heartbeat, but can’t take more than two mugs of ale at any given time. He levitates everywhere and is kind of annoying because of that. Oh, and he likes sappy poetry and long walks on a forest.
ESTERA CHARACTER: CORVUS VIERA
Character Name: Corvus Viera
Physical Appearance: Built like bamboo, tall and pliant. He has olive skin and short black hair and tattoos on his arms. He’s also androgynous, so there’s that.
Religion: The religion that Corvus chose is Sa-Onic. This particular religion deals with an unseen psionic being as a central figure and lots of meditation. The rituals involve darkness and candles, with occasional animal sacrifices for blessings. He does the rituals on occasion and meditates four times a month. During those times, everything that isn’t shielded breaks and goes haywire. The neighbors thoroughly complain about this.
Powers: He has telekinetic abilities which are fairly strong, although he gets huge headaches if he uses it for too long. He can also levitate, which has no side-effects but he can get stuck if he meditates and levitates for a good long while. This has led to some weird problems.
Bio: Corvus hails from Skylend, the dense forest region of Far Falls. The elf lived with a group that was faithful to the elder chosen and hunted in the land peacefully. To be honest, he was growing bored with the tedious “hunt, kill, ritual, sleep” routine. He hated the routine and honestly spent 85% of his time up in trees away from the other elves in the vicinity. During that time, he perfected the art of archery… mostly by almost shooting everyone near their foot when they told him to come down.
On a day when there was nothing to do, he wandered and came across a dark elf who was endearingly annoying and loud and decided “Yes. I like this one. This one is mine.” And so, every time he and his family ventured out to the forest, he decided to talk to the dark elf and such. However, gossip runs wild in the group and he was promptly sick of it. He flipped them all off and started living alone. When the dark elf broke out, he came along to Esteria and is now a waiter at some bar run by a minotaur. (Or a bookkeep, if Jakz ain't cool with it.) He’s currently applying to be a police officer.
Job: Again, he’s a waiter. And gets great tips for some reason he can’t put on his finger. Probably his wit. Yeah, that’s it. His unintentional snark and humor.
Notes: Do not hurt anything organic in his presence. Do. Not. Do it.
