[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5383522, member: 92511"] [b]WiPs: 2 Steel Dragons' Elf characters[/b] From the first time I looked at the D&D Basic book reading the demi-human character descriptions, there was that brushed ink image by Jeff Easley (I'm pretty sure it was him) of an elf with a quarter staff standing next to a scared-looking halfling with a dagger/short sword, I fell in love with the idea of elven characters. Needless to say, many of my longest running characters were elves, and there were several more that either never got off the ground (didn't see much play) or never got played at all. So, I just had this idea of throwing them all together for a "family portrait" kinda thing...so here they are, Steel Dragons' elf characters. Row 1: [LIST] [*][B]Iris[/B] - "wood elf" fighter/short bow specialist. Created as a member of the "next generation" Steel Dragons' adventuring group. Hasn't seen play yet. [*][B]Erilyn [/B]- "high" elf magic-user/thief, official/original member of the "Steel Dragon" company, and Silran's sister. [*][B]Jasilith "Jase" Korindor [/B]- high elf ranger/cleric, occasional "Steel Dragon". [*][B]Silran[/B] -my very FIRST elf character. Basic D&D "Elf" transferred to 1e as a Fighter/Magic-user who basically never used his magic and so has been altered to just a "fighter/master swordsman" in the storyline, original/founding member of the Steel Dragon company. [*][B]"Silver"[/B] (a.k.a. Sivthariin) -high elf thief-acrobat. Possibly, my favorite elf character ever! He was just too cool and augmented by a bevy of highly useful magic items. Got to be pretty high (i.e. over 10th) level through 1 & 2e. Storywise he's among the first recruits into the Steel Dragon company. [*][B]Cerc[/B] - wood elf mage. Cerc was originally generated as one of Montor's first apprentices/followers in 1e. He was unusual in the fact that wood elves of Orea, [I]the Kantiiri[/I], do not study/practice wizardry within their society. So his finding/being of service to Montor was the only way for him to pursue his interest. [*][B]Thillian[/B] - ShiCynallae elf mage & Aeromancer.

But I always thought he'd be a cool character to use as a PC. In the Steel Dragons' sage, he receives an honorary membership with the company. [/LIST] Row 2: [LIST] [*][B]"Fathom"[/B]- a high elf magic-user from the early 2e days. Your typical emo/gothy dark tortured-soul mage-type (hey, I was an angsty teenager just like everyone else ;).
