"Liiros Tivaniel, crusader in Corellon's holy name. Squire of the Aquilline Cross, from the Shahalesti branch," the heavily-armored elf replies, nodding once to the strangers. He keeps a close eye on both the ugly gnome and his two fellow elves, expecting possible violence between them. "These two are leading us to the stolen item, whereupon someone will ensure that there are no traps or wards upon it so we can at least bring copies with us."
[sblock=Appearance]Liiros is a noble-looking elven man just under five feet tall, with lightly-tanned skin, shoulder-length straight black hair, and bright green eyes that gleam with intelligence and mirth. His face is often lit by a handsome smile, and his demeanor is always friendly until a fight breaks out, at which point he goes into a fury. Liiros wears heavy banded mail armor, lacking some of his kind's usual grace, half-covered by a white and red tabard bearing the cross and feathers of his order, the Knighthood of the Aquilline Cross. The armor includes steel boots, gauntlets, and helm. The helm is a fancy elven design with three fluted horns curving back and ending in a few colorful feathers, with small diagonal earslits on the sides, and his face partly exposed by a T-shaped slit over the eyes, nose, and middle of the mouth.
A wooden kite shield painted with the crescent-moon emblem of Corellon Larethian is usually strapped to his left arm, showing his faith to the elven god. He fights with Corellon's favored weapon, the longsword, sheathed in a black scabbard at his right hip when not in use, and a composite longbow hangs over his left shoulder, its quiver hanging behind the right. A dagger is sheathed at his left hip, and a belt pouch hangs behind it. He wears a small backpack as well, lightly packed, and wears simple elven traveling clothes beneath his armor, brown trousers and a forest-green tunic. A dark brown, hooded cloak and soft shoes are carried in his pack for the occasions where he goes unarmored. When his forehead is not covered by the helm, a silvery tattoo there shows the crescent of Corellon. The elven god's emblem also adorns Liiros' scabbard and quiver.[/sblock]
