Outward Appearance

Standing tall and proud, somewhat broadly built for an Elf, Malaiten's pale blue eyes gaze across the dreaded Barrow-Downs from his campsite in its north-eastern reaches. Sun setting behind him, he takes off his hood to reveal his long, tied-back dark brown hair, as well as skin of somewhat beige complexion.

He ponders wether he himself or the magnificent view would need any further description, but he decides that it would be of less interest than the curiousity of the reeking little crawler that decided to rest by his side.

Background

A young elven linguinist with an unusual interest for the ways of the common man. After spending his early years with his mother in the court of Greenwood, he eventually grew weary of witnessing the once so great forest darken and decay under the influence of the Necromancer, and subsequently set out to wander the lands in search of a worthy cause. Armed with a knack for fishing, a compendium of True Words and an inconvienient tendency to think and at times act in a most unorthodox way for an elf, Malaiten is a self-proclaimed Seer of the Sky, or simply a wandering philosopher.

Having recently returned from his pilgrimage to the Lonely Mountain, he brought along the elder son of a certain Dalen family, a former sellsword of some small repute who has been tasked with assisting the Silver Blades in any way possible. The man of the lake has yet to raise objections to this, given his hefty salary, and prefers to title himself as the Descendant of the Ebon Fang, whatever that might mean. Malaiten doesn't pay his ramblings too much heed, however, seeing as he's virtually harmless unless ordered otherwise.
