Background: Erevan had it made. He was the son of a noble Eladrin family, close to the Tiandra the Summer Queen. He graduated with honors from the Academy of War and Magic. He commanded a small number of men in the tactics of war.He was engaged to a beautiful and influential Eladrin woman. All that gone now. One day, his betrothed became deathly ill, her skin white as crystal, and cold as the first snow. She was strong, but couldn't hold out, dieing on the eve of the day of their wedding.

Erevan was stricken with grief, and he left everything behind, his rich family, his prestigous position, all memories of his betrothed, and of course the Feywild. He wandered, finally finding peace in the small town of Haylen's ford. He bought a vacant farmhouse and a piece of land. Using only his own muscles and keen knowledge of nature, Erevan tended the plot, until it blossomed with flowers and a number of vegetables. These he ate or sold to make his living. In Haylen's Ford things are beginning to change in the eladrin. He has recently met another eladrin, a young woman. Whether it is the way she dances in his garden, the way she looks at him, or just the sound of her voice, it brings joy to his heart. Someone to love once again, making him more complete, someone who brings out who he used to be. Erevan practices his bladework more and more. Just in case, she is also a person in need of protection. He wouldn't want to lose her.

Personality: Once charming and charismatic, the eladrin named Erevan, was stricken with depression following the death of his betrothed. He was never the same again. More grim now than he ever was, the new love of his life is beginning to change him, back to his previous self. Some semblance of who he was still clings to him, for if you would walk through his garden under the light of the full moon, you would see him practicing his bladework, in a beautiful dance. When speaking, he speaks plainly and blunt, to some it comes off as rude and arrogant, others marvel at his knowledge.

Appearance: Erevan is a little over six feet tall, slim, but muscular. His skin is tanned from working on his plot of land. His hair is long and tied back in a simple ponytail, the color of molten silver. His pupilless eyes are sea-foam green. The eladrin's long-fingered hands are calloused from work with a blade or hoe. An eladrin made sword hangs on one hip, and a buckler is strapped to his forearm. A suit of hide armor, made from the skin a fey panther, protects him from harm.

Description and Personality: Arjhan is short for a dragonborn which isn't saying much as he towers over the dwarves from his homeland, Storm Peak. His dark black scales and the forward facing horns on his head point rather obvious to his heritage. Arjhan speaks with a low, gruff voice that draws attention, attracting people to listen. Often quite charismatic, the black dragonborn is also capable at stealth. Often a little too quick to judge, Arjhan makes snap decisions feeling that he has his Goddess' back. Fate requires her due.

History: Originally from Storm Peak, Arjhan found succor in the heart of the stronghold from the oddest of sources. Where most choose to follow Moradin or other combat oriented dieties, Arjhan found the Raven Queen. His choice to follow the Goddess of Fate and Death was not popular, but his felt her calling in the back of his mind. Her voice lead him deep into the Storm Peak beyond the Black Gate at the base of the stronghold. Deep into the black he followed her to a small shrine hidden behind a tight crevice. A dreadful ghoul had settled in, defiling the ancient shrine. Arjhan waited patiently for the ghoul to leave, hunger driving it to seek flesh closer to the citadel. As it moved he set upon it with his daggers and melting it with his breath. The foul undead turned on him, its face half melted, and bit down hard on his arm. Arjhan still bears an angry scar from that encounter. He left Storm Peak not long after, traveling south again at the calling of his Queen.

Iados, Male Tiefling, Star Pact Warlock

Name: Iados (Spoken Text Color)
Gender: Male
Class: Warlock (Star Pact)
Level: 1st

[sblock=Background]It is common for the folk of Broken Temple to be focused on the search for the rumored artifact, it was definitely true for Iados' parents, who often brought their young child with them on quests near the ruins, leaving him with camp workers while they went into the ruins. It was on the periphery of adventure that the young Tiefling suckled, but it was the stars that called Iados, something about the twinkle of a yellowish star pulled at the soul of the nascent warlock. Thus, over time, Iados began the journey of the warlock, upon the path of the Star Pact, a mysterious path, and wandered further away from Broken Temple and its ruin quest.
For sometime now, over the course of a year, maybe two, Iados has become a familiar sight around Haylen's Ford, at least as common of a sight a Tiefling can be. Although he comes across as a bit cocky, Iados is known to follow through, more often then naught, one what he says he can do. Not only has he used his warlock abilities in the defense of farmers and villagers, but he has also used his more mundane skills tinkering with various devices and finding things out that some might wish left unfound.
All in all, Iados seems to be a resourceful and skilled Warlock, who is also open to helping out, even more so when it allows him to find a few more coins to rub together. Currently, he has a room at the end, having just finished escorting some refuges into the town. His gear is well mended and that itch to seek out is starting back up.[/sblock]
[sblock=Appearance]Of an average height and weight, Iados is a male tiefling who is in excellent condition, with cunning red eyes and a dusky, tanned skin. Deep purple hair starts just behind the males powerful horns, flowing down his back until it hangs a foot above the root of his nearly five foot long tail.
Currently Iados is wearing a set of reddish brown leather armor with brass buckles and latches. Upon his back is a common adventure's pack, with a well-worn belt with pouches about his waste. A well-crafted dagger rides upon his left hip while an rod of blackened steel, with a smooth red gem atop it, is sheathed upon his right hip. Although a long, voluminous cloak is worn over it all, it is often cocked to one side or the other, lending a rakish air to the male.[/sblock]
[sblock=Personality]Iados is a smart, cunning tiefling who grew up having to live by his wits, smarts, and ability to pick up interesting skills. His confidence sometimes comes across as cocky, however it is often a trick to lure his foes into a overconfident position.[/sblock]

BACKGROUND
Regdar is a former farmer turned mercenary/adventurer. This change occurred in his life when during a particularly dry summer resulted in his home (inherited from his father) burning down and the failure of his crops. Rather than curse the gods and his luck Regdar saw this as an oprotunity to raise his station from that of a mere farmer. Hearing that there was need for adventurers in the area around Haylen's Ford he packed what few possessions he still had and headed out there.

PERSONALITY
Simply put Regdar is a go with the flow guy. He doesn't dwell on things good or bad. While he doesn't believe in 100% predestined fate Regdar firmly believes that The Raven Queen has some sort of plan for him.

APPEARANCE
Regdar skin is pale and his build is quite lanky. He has hazel eyes and short but wavy brown hair. His facial hair is scruffy and short. Other notable things is a wide gap tooth in his front teeth and that he rarely stands straight rather he spends most of his time slouching.

[sblock=Background/appearance]
Ulrick's parents were farmers on the periphery of Haylen's Ford. His parents & siblings died in a goblin attack when he was 8. His only living relative, and old wizard named Tornoran, took him in and raised him as his own. Unfortunately, Tornoran's age caught up with him, and he passed away when Ulrick was 14. Fortunately, Thornoran made arrangements prior to his death, and the day of his passing, an Eladrin came for Ulrik, and took him to Grand Valley to complete his training.
Having almost come of age, and being a competent wizard, Ulrick felt the need to come back to his native settlement, and be among humans.

Ulrick is a tall (6ft) thin human, of youthful appearance. He has dark hair with dark, intelligent eyes. He dons a simple travelling clothes, with a cloak of elven manufacture.
