He is short and slight of build. Despite the hard leather armor and weapons he carries, Cian has a look of frailty and age that is even greater than the more than 1600 years he has lived. This weakness aside, Cian moves with surprising grace which can perhaps be attributed to his fey heritage. His dark skin is grayish black which contrasts sharply with the shoulder length white hair. His finger nails are nearly and inch long and lacquered in a deep red. His deep powerful voice seems incongruous with his small size. He speaks with cultured educated words and a thoughtful tone. Cian’s personality tends toward the extremes. He is often carefree singing and humming or playing music and reciting poetry. But he is given to bouts of deep melancholia. In his youth these could be so strong as to incapacitate him leaving him no interest in food or drink and hardly speaking to others. These have become less frequent and less debilitating as he has aged. Cian is popular with others and seems to have a gift for winning friends. He always has a kind word or a joke for friends and acquaintances. His gift for music is much in demand at social events and Cian is often prevailed upon to sing. He dresses in dark reddish browns worked with gold embroidery in complex knot patterns. At his side is a fine Rapier of old design with an elaborate guard and colorful leather wrappings on the hilt. A coiled whip and a small mace also with wrappings covering almost the whole handle rest on the other hip. A constant companion, a yellow dog, Keita, with a pack on her back, is always at Cian’s heels. Regardless of the long years underground, Cian still longs for the surface world. He wants to visit the forests he still remembers from more than 1500 years ago. History/Background-Cian has lived a long life deep underground. The fall of the Elves was hard on him and his family. Something in his fey nature could not endure the depths of the earth. For many years, young Cian was a virtual invalid confined to a bed or sitting propped in a chair. He spent those years reading or listening to stories. His mother and sister, Iseabail, often sang to him. Often times he was left with the old and infirm. When not seized by the melancholia, he was a very personable companion and spent hours sitting and talking with the eldest among his people. He was not liked by all however. Some strove to rid the Elves of all weakness and make them into a warrior race to take back what had been lost. Deniel in particular hated those like Cian who needed care and could not support themselves. Only the friends he had made, especially Culann the loremaster kept him from being cast out. Finally, after many years, Cian began to recover and take part in society. His years of reading and conversing with others made him a great repository of knowledge. He assists Culann as a loremaster and historian. He enjoys this life and feels good contributing to the community, but he longs for a chance to travel and see the world. He was always very close to his mother and his sister, his father often too busy to spend time with Cian. His mother died more than a 100 years ago and he still misses her. He always wears a Moonflower broach that was hers as a reminder. He is devoted to Iseabail as well, but she has a family of her own now and they see each other less often. He would still do anything for her and she remains the most important person in his life.
