-Biography: My name is Sypher, an Elven Warrior loved by God himself. Born in his house, The Cloud Temple Of Aegis; no matter what race, we live together in harmony under his roof. I spend my time ensuring all is well among the grand redwood trees which protect us. I do not seek conflict but care for the forest. If conflict finds itself to me and my family; they shall see the force of an Elven Warrior before them.

I was brought up by my mother (Alena) and Father (Rajin). Throughout my childhood, my father was tough and believed in gearing me for combat. He told me the ancient ways of the elves and the stories of Iblees, although he never discussed his own past...My mother Alena was a loving wife and mother, I care for her greatly and during my adolescence when I would feel anger, she would bring me back and encourage me to use that fire inside of me, that passion for a greater purpose.

Growing up in the forests of Malinor, I would seek adventure. Rarely did I sit at home and ponder life's mysterious as my brother (Heyrn) had done. While he favored literature, legend and history; I wandered the highest branches and lowest stumps. I quickly was taken under the wing of the towns Blacksmith, a decision my father was pleased with. I learnt much about the fine art of weaponry, how to strike a target but also the honor that accompany's a sword. At 15 I met an older dwarven explorer named 'Gromin' outside The Holy Princedom of Malinor. From that moment on we had become friends as if the gods had planned it. He is the reason my thirst for exploration and adventure is so great. These are the skills I wish to one day also pass on.

Meanwhile my brother Heyrn had stayed within The Holy Princedom of Malinor, achieving academic heights and caring for my mother. As time passed and I spent my days swimming through rivers and climbing up ravines. He then grew to see me as a son who had not been by his mother side and thus grew a rivalry between us.
