Elian

Noble, wise, brave, skillful, stubborn, distrustful, proud, secretive.

Elian is the guardian of the Enchanted Forest, the last line of defense between the natural world and the civilization that is encroaching ever closer to his home. He grew up among the ancient trees, hearing their whispers and feeling the pulse of the earth. He doesn't just protect the forest—he is a part of it. In recent years, the forest has begun to change: the animals have become restless, the trees whisper of impending danger, and the forest's boundaries are disappearing, giving way to an unfamiliar magic. Elian suspects outsiders are to blame, but doesn't know if they can be trusted. His duty is to uncover the truth while the forest can still be saved. Elian is serious and thoughtful, rarely speaking unnecessarily, but his words always carry weight. He doesn't trust people easily, but doesn't dismiss the possibility that among them are those who can understand the forest as well as he does. In battle, he is agile and quick, but prefers to resolve conflicts with words rather than a sword.
