I've got an idea in mind, but no crunch worked out. Anyway, here's a bit of background, if you like it then it can be fleshed out. I think he's probably a wizard, but could be a rogue equally well.[sblock=Background]Marcus was always interested in new places, new people, new things. He was drawn to adventure not for the usual reasons, there was no search for wealth or power, nor any particular need to be fighting the good fight. He just wanted to travel, to see what the world had to offer. His travels took him far afield, into dwarven mines, meeting the halfling clerics of Yondalla and meeting merfolk off the coast. It was in the elven lands that his life changed however. It was there that he met Allea, the elven maiden who stole his heart. With similar ambitions, and similar desires to see the world, they travelled together for a time, happy in each others company. It was not long before problems became very apparent to Marcus, however. There was no problem with Allea, she was everything he had ever wanted. But Marcus was growing old. Not so old that it was a problem, but aging faster than Allea's elven body. Marcus knew that there would be a solution, somewhere, and vowed to find it. The search consumed Marcus, it was the most important thing in the world, a means of extending his life and preventing the effects of age. It overwhelmed him, becoming his focus to the point of ignoring all else in his life, even the attention that Allea deserved.It took over a year before Allea left him, a year of her trying to persuade him to see what he was doing to her, to their relationship and to himself. But it was to no avail. When she left, Marcus became depressed. The memories of times past haunted him, and the point of his all consuming search was gone. Still, he knew that the means of extending his life may be around the next corner, and once he had it, perhaps then he could return to Allea...[/sblock]</blockquote>
