NAME: Lyian Elerron
GENDER: Male
AGE: Elven Prime
SPECIES: High Elf
DESCRIPTION: Lyian's hair is a long fall of platinum that graces the top of his back with it's silky length. His eyes are a clear, ice blue seen in the reaches of the northern seas. He is slightly above average in height for his people, and well muscled in a lithe build. He moves with the grace of a jungle cat, borne of many decades of training with blade and spell. He can normally be found wearing well made, durable garments or armor. He is nearly always seen with his signature sword at his side, an enchanted blade gifted to him by the King of Aida himself, and enchanted by the Master Artificer of the Library at Daneith. Other weapons of his come and go, as the mission or his priority calls for.
PROFESSION: Noble of Aida, Warrior-Mage, Wayfinder of Aida
WEALTH: Comfortable
COMBAT ROLE: Lone spellblade, field commander, arcane support
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
+ Master Swordsman: Lyian has honed his ability with the blade throughout his life, and even without the aid of magic he could be considered one of the greatest bladesmen of the era.
+ Battle Magic: Lyian has likewise trained in the use of magic for battle. Different from War Magic in scale, he is able to meld his bladework with his spellwork to create devestating effects.
- Scale: Lyian's magic is almost entirely at the personal level, meaning he isn't able to effect large swaths of area.
- Range: Lyian's training has been almost entirely in melee combat, with spell, fist, and blade. He is decent with long ranged weaponry, and can cast spells at range at a greater effort cost, but is mostly lacking at range.
MAJOR MOTIVATIONS: Lyian serves his King faithfully, always returning when called. However, he does have a deeply held desire to find the age old waystations of the Elves, from before Aida or the Empire were formed. Towards this, Lyian can often be found out in the world, unlike most of his countrymen.
MAGIC: Lyian is versed in channeling magic for battle through the forms of his battle dance, and through the blade of his sword. These often impart elemental effects to his blows or augment his body in some way (strength, speed, agility, etc). However, he is also initiated into the magic of nature, able to commune with spirits of the world and shape nature to his desire. At the moment, this is a skill he only dabbles in.
BACKGROUND: Lyian was born in the Aidan capital of Talieth, to a noble family of High Elves. Early on he showed a grace and ability with the blade, so he was fostered with the Knights of Aida in the Homeguard unit. Through the first decades of his life, he honed his ability with the blade. In his third decade, his ability with magic manifested while dueling in the salle. Almost instantly, he found himself in the presence of the King, the Warmaster of the Knights of Aida, and the Master Artificer of the Library at Daneith. There, he was tested for his loyalty to Aida and the Crown, then inducted into the Wayfinders. For the next four decades, he trained deep within the Library at Daneith with other Wayfinder recruits. There, he was taught how to mold the weave of magic to his whim, and then how to do so while in combat. As his power in magic grew, so to did his grace with the blade. Upon completion of his first mission for the Crown, he was gifted with an enchanted blade by the King. Ever since, it has not left his side, and has served him well in the many missions that followed.
