![]() Patron 16 Posts | General Full Name: Lysander Nicknames: Pretty boy, or some variant thereof, much to his confusion Primary Class: Healer (of some sort) Race: Elf Gender: Male Age: Unknown, believes he's around 40 Hair: White, short & wavy, side shaved Skin: Tan Eyes: Purple Biographical Place of Residence: Northern Rokhala Place of Birth: Gweonid Forest Relatives: Parents, status unknown Occupation: None for now Tradeskills: Herbalism, Hunting/Gathering, Healing Appearance: ![]() Fashion of Choice: Still figuring that out. Prefers comfortable clothes. Armor of Choice: Cloth Weapons of Choice: Magic Special Talents: Mysticism, Divination, Dream Walking, dabbles in drawing and violin History/Biography: Lysander's background is shrouded in mystery, perhaps more to him than anyone else. Not knowing his true age or his birthday, Lysander only fully remembers the last ten years of his life. He knows bits and pieces from his childhood and teen years, but those memories are foggier than they ought to be. Through occasional lucid fragments of events and a collection of diaries and letters from his parents, he has a vague understanding of how he got to where he is, and why, but much has been hidden from him. His parents met while they were both on the run from their own troubles, finding solace in each others' plight, they continued to run together, and soon found themselves with a child in tow. They tried to keep to the edges of society, only meeting with strangers to barter or trade for goods and supplies, and very seldom daring to approach the larger cities. Displeased to be raising a child so isolated, they did their best to supplement more typical enrichment and entertainment with books, art, and music. His father (while perhaps not his biological father) was fluent in continental Haranyan, so Lysander was raised hearing it as often as Nuian or Elvish, something that was so ingrained that he never fully forgot it. His father was also a gifted healer adept with alchemy, herbalism, and natural medicine. Lysander inherited many of his natural talents, as well as an aptitude for the learned craft as well. His mother did not have the typical childhood of an Elf, orphaned, she was raised in a cult that taught her strange and unusual magics. Though she escaped her upbringing at the first chance, she never forgot the valuable lessons her caretakers taught her. By far the more paranoid of his parents, whenever she believed that their family had been discovered, or Lysander saw something he shouldn't have seen, she would modify his memory, insisting that she was protecting him from the danger of their lives. When he was young, it started small, a few moments to an hour at a time changed, hidden, or removed - though as he grew older and began to experience more, her paranoias grew in turn. She would take longer and longer lengths of time from him, from months to years, which caused a rift to grow swiftly between his parents. He spent many years with either his mother or father, each believing that they were doing what was best, though his mother was tenacious and could not be convinced that repeatedly taking her son's memories was not only unhelpful, but potentially very dangerous. This pattern repeated for decades, finally culminating in a devastating, near deadly encounter in Northern Rokhala, giving Lysander the scar over his eye. His father nursed him back to health, determined to find a way to stop his estranged wife's machinations, certain that Lysander could not survive any further meddling. Lysander's life since then was unremarkable. He continued the habit of keeping to himself, able to survive in the wilds far from civilization with few problems. He got letters from both parents with some regularity for a few years, though he never saw either of them again . It was only very recently when a certain green-haired Haranyan happened upon him while he was injured in Gweonid Forest, healing his wounds and challenging the idea that people were dangerous and couldn't be trusted. Personality Alignment: Generally good, ideally would put himself first but has made rash decisions with dour consequences to help the people he cares about. Motivations: Discovering his past, creating his own future Disposition: Wary but curious. Cautiously/reluctantly hopeful Outlook: Uncertain, heavily dependent upon current circumstances, can shift from very hopeful to resigned and depressed Religion/Philosophy: Having spent a large portion of his life alone, he hasn't focused much on the topic of religion. He certainly believes in higher and/or weirder powers, having seen plenty of evidence to support their existence. Sexuality: peach & eggplant emoji Positive Personality Traits: Curious, open minded, observant, intuitive, friendly Negative Personality Traits: Paranoid, easily overwhelmed, highly emotional, easily wounded Misc. Quirks: Very odd for an Elf, he avoids much conflict and does not enjoy fighting, preferring the outdoors, animals, books. He can sleep basically anywhere in nearly any position, but wakes easily. He does not dream. He has almost no clear memory of his life prior to 10 years ago, due to this, he takes extensive notes about his experiences. Affiliations Guild: Aurum Dragoons Guild Rank: Member Interests Likes: The outdoors - forests in particular, water, swimming, fishing, plants, learning, people, music Dislikes: Violence, aggression, vague pacts with aspiring eldritch horrors Favorite Foods: Game meats, fruits, pastries Favorite Drinks: Teas, wine, sake, beech noyaux Favorite Colors: All of 'em Hobbies: Exploring, seeing new things, meeting people, socializing, day drinking, being on boats ![]() RP Hooks -Lysander has been around for a long time and is much older than he thinks. He has traveled great lengths between Nuia and Haranya, though mostly along the edges of society, not interacting much beyond trading with wandering merchants or small farms. His appearance has changed slightly over the years -Knowing either of his parents in the past would work well too, either as a family unit or individually. Lysander resembles them both -It is entirely plausible to find him in any quiet, wooded area -He spends lots of time at home in Northern Rokhala -He is socially reserved at first, but will try to help anyone in need -Lysander is not able to easily resist the opportunity to explore new places OOC Info Discord: illuminatibynature#2194 Time Zone: CST. I'm available weekday evenings and usually pretty flexible on weekends. RP Limits: I don't consider any subjects off limits, however the extent to which I will actively RP some of them will vary a whole bunch. I am comfortable talking about pretty much anything on an OOC level, though. |
