Description[sblock]
a’Shelys stands with the grace of a man who lives aboard the rolling deck of a ship. His coppery hair, normally flowing in long curls to his neck, is tied back in a ponytail to keep it from his face. With the green-gold eyes of a hunting cat contrasting against the dark tan of his skin, he always seems to be peering out from darkness. He wears a stripped down adventurer’s outfit, rarely needing the accoutrements of a standard land-bound adventurer. A sheathed elven leafblade pokes from its scabbard over his right shoulder, the handle intricately carved mahogany, crossing the scabbard and rising over his left shoulder is a composite longbow inlaid crafted from the wood of a starfruit tree. A pair of mithril armbands are worn on his forearms, embossed with golden rays of sunlight, on his left hand is a ring of carved ivory, on closer examination a swan can be seen drifting among the carvings.[/sblock]
Personality[sblock]
a’Shelys is generally slightly less flighty than other elves, the rigorous training he underwent to become a member of the Silver Manes has given him an air of seriousness, although that air is often blown away when he lets out a rolling laugh or the unexpected punch line to a situation. He has a close-knit bond with Rysha, the griffon he raised from an egg as part of the Silver Manes, and should it come between someone else and Rysha, she wins out more often than not. When it comes to his duties aboard the ship, a’Shelys takes them seriously despite the aerial acrobatics he’ll perform for fun as he scouts ahead. In the back of his head though, remains his affections for Naeasha and his bond to the Silver Manes, something that will always remind him of home.[/sblock]
Background[sblock]
a’Shelys was born to the elves of Laerendhor, the Deep Fen. Growing up amongst the towering forests, his life was led as many elves of his age; running through the woods, games of archery and swordplay, frolicking and such. But for an elf, life is still a progression and soon his interests diverged from those of the typical elven youth. For many years he had watched the Silver Manes, a guild of griffon riders who defended the forests from the air, and been fascinated by their distinctive air from the rest of the elves. They were a close-knit band of various sorts, the bonds that stood between them and their brethren (griffon or elf) were closer than the few friendships he had had whilst growing up.
He began to frequent near the Aerie, where the griffons resided, adopting the habits of some of their best, going to the same revels and inns, watching how they carried themselves, their garb and weapons. He fancied himself someday a Silver Mane, riding amongst brethren on the winds high above the forests. This lasted for quite some time, until his fascinations were noticed and he was brought in as a potential recruit, for he had socialized with many of the Silver Manes and knew them well-enough. His training as a griffon rider was stricter than many of his experiences as a youth. Although far from rigid, it was quite rigorous and on many evenings, a’Shelys would collapse exhausted on his hammock and sleep till he was awakened by the morning birds, when he would then prepare for another day of training. This initiation lasted for five years, he became a skilled rider and acquired the prestige of a Silver Mane. He was a scout and harrier, moving swiftly in advance of his brethren, showering any attackers with arrows as he guided Rysha with his knees.
The bonds of kinship within the Silver Manes were strong, yet when Naeasha, one of the diving cavalry, began to show affection to a’Shelys her former partner Caerios, also one of the diving cavalry, became envious. Tension rose among the Silver Manes as the affair became known and uncharacteristic to the strong bonds of kinship, members took sides. Some against him, others happy for him, and others protecting Naeasha. With tensions high, it was only time before someone slipped in the line of action, and although it was neither of the three involved in the affair, Caerios was deeply injured as a result. a’Shelys decided that he could not stand to create such a rift in the Silver Manes, too proud to let their prestige fail because of a personal affair.
In sad departure, he said his goodbyes, even Caerios saw him off for he recognized the noble deed that a’Shelys would now endure. With a small gift of a carved ivory ring, Naeasha said that last goodbyes, and he departed into the skies with Rysha to make his way in the world beyond the Fen.
He flew east over the mountains and towards the great port cities he had heard of from the seasoned tales of the Silver Manes. It was there, that he began to make a small name of himself as a skilled scout for caravans and ships, flying ahead of them and reporting back with the lay of the land and of any dangers ahead. While he had most often kept to the coast, the spell of the sea slowly won him over and he soon longed for the ships to hire him and to glide over the rolling blue-green of the ocean waves. It was only chance that he ran into Captain Swoops, or more that Captain Swoops ran into him and nearly was mauled by the first reactions of Rysha, defensive of her companion. Calming his flying companion, a’Shelys dusted himself off and apologized to the man who had just nearly run him over in his haste. When the Captain let drop his name, a’Shelys knew he had found the man who would bring him to the sea as he had longed to do. a’Shelys proposed to serve as part of his crew at once, offering his services as a scout in the skies. The Captain, more in haste than in true acknowledgement, agreed and a’Shelys accompanied Swoops to the Moon Goddess.
He has since served for two years, slowly building his relations to the other crew. It was with some trepidation that he let himself become attached, since he had seen what had once happened in a close-knit band when a problem arose. But since, he has come to love the ship and his crewmates, relating tales of the Deep Fen and bringing the occasional friend up into the skies on Rysha. Although one day he longs to return to the Aerie to tell his tales of adventure, that day is a long way off in his mind.[/sblock]

If you're still recruiting, I would love to join
playing a strait wizard item creator
weapons, armor, and seige weapons(with a little more emphisis on the latter)
A gruff man, yet-to-be-named, he is a reletive new comer to the ship. Not a new comer to ships, of course, he has had many jobs on many ships(most of which are no longer a float), but none like this! Yet-to-be-named is usually hard at work creating some unusual item of power for the ship or its crew. Or inspected weapon coming of other ship or drinking heavly with the crew.
If accepted, I will have a longer more thought out backround/personality/ect. but for now dinners calling
