-Character Name: Nénharma

-What is your Race?: Elf (Wood Elf)

-Biography: Although once a thriving breed of Elven people, the Killenddare, now have nearly vanished from the what is left of the Ancient World. The Killenddare were an illustrious people who knew not of the horrors that lay beyond their woodland realm. Their prosperous existence soon came to an end at the hands of the undead horde. Having watched his family slain, and acquiring a scar on his face, Nénharma, at a young age, escaped the pillaging of his homelands. In succeeding years, he had taken up his vow to protect his once thriving realm and sought out vengeance on those who laid waste to it. Coining a name for himself among traders passing by, he became known as "Whisper" among human tongues for inconspicuous presence as well as the translation of his elven name. After centuries of watching over the elderly willows of the lands and hearing the howling echoes of his forgotten people, Nénharma began to wonder what lay beyond the ceiling of trees and the fading blackness of the woods. Having heard stories long ago, Nénharma knew of the existence of great civilizations and cultures and forces beyond his understanding. He decided that he would not wait for vengeance and would instead seek it out in the unknown. And so he departed with his bow and a few small relics of his people. After years of travel, Nénharma stumbled on the land of Aegis where he had never seen so many different peoples. Knowing that he might find answers to his questions, Nénharma took his first step toward learning the mysteries of the modern world and what it would have to offer him.

-Your ambitions: To establish his culture in these new lands. Wishes to create a name for himself, but not in vain, and not for social purposes.
