I should warn you, it might be a significant challenge; I'm making his description pretty detailed (since the character himself is very average for his race has few distinguishing features).Here's the physical description, then stats, followed by a brief description of personality. I figure, the more you know about him, the better idea you'll have of who he is.Zelikhandteo Kaiil Shol d'Phiarlan, Elven Male, 1st level Bard, 4'11, 109 lbs. and 123 years of age. He is an unexceptional looking elf, with long treasure-chest-brown hair tied into a ponytail and bland blue eyes. He has no tattooes or any distinguishing features. He has the long face and features of his brethren, but not the snobby countenance. He has small round eyes set into fleshy lids, underneath peaked eyebrows. He has high cheekbones that both make him look like a jester when he's happy, but can also make him look very, very dangerous those rare times he's not. His lips are thick but squished in the middle of his face, making him look slightly effeminate (though if you said that to him, he'd smack you; he rolls with most insults but for the all-elves-look-like-women cracks). When he smiles, all you can see from his chin to the bottom of his nose, are teeth.     By this description, you might think him exceedingly difficult to pick out in a crowd, *especially* a crowd of elves. Not so; for you see, he is quite a loud, fidgety, and optimistic fellow, who is exceptionally charismatic and bores *very* quickly. If he is not impressing the ladies with a well-sung melody, he is fascinating all others with stories of ancient tales of heroism. He tends to have trouble keeping his fidgety hands still, and his unexpectly deep voice restrained.     Typically, he dresses in functional rather than showy clothing, as he has never had much trouble keeping people's attention; a good set of travelling clothes, maybe a thick robe in case it gets cold. His favourite color is royal blue, and this shows up in his wardrobe selections. He travels a lot, so he tries to pack light as well, often carrying little more than his backpack, but by the same token he hates to be caught unprepared (having spent part of his career as a spy), so he carries a variety of weapons: a longsword, shortbow, and sap. The bow is his favoured weapon, since he's always had trouble killing though he knows it is necessary, and a bow tends to make for quick and relatively painless death versus swordplay. While adventuring, he dons studded leather to protect himself and allow him to stay mobile enough to aid other people or escape if the situation calls for it. He also carries a lot of ink, a few pens, and some paper in scrollcases, to make notes for the articles he writes for his employer, The Postwar Chronicles.STR 12DEX 16CON 10INT 14WIS 11CHA 16Skills:   Appraise 2,   Bluff 4,   Diplomacy 2,   Gather Information 2,   Knowledge (History) 4,   Move Silently 4,   Perform (Singing) 4,   Sense Motive 4,   Sleight of Hand 2,   Tumble 2,   Use Magic Device 2Personality - a very free spirit. LOVES to meet new people and have new experiences, though sometimes it gets him into trouble. He enjoyed his career as a thief, but found himself becoming too emotionally attached to the various people he was spying upon (since he would regularly work both or all sides of a conflict). He has passing interest in many different things, but has shown an unwavering interest in history; dead people fascinate him as much as live ones, but not in the necromantic sense. At the moment, the House of Phiarlan was kind enough to honor his request to be put into a role more suited to his tastes; namely, as an adventurer.If anyone is willing to draw him, thank you in advance. Dan.</blockquote>
