Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): Sambooka is an Elf who was abandoned by his parents at birth. They left him alone in the woods. Miraculously he survived and was taken in by a band of Elves he came across while exploring the woodlands. They taught him how to weild a bow and he has an exellant control over the art of archery. They also taught him tactics to survive when in the wild (although he had picked quite a lot up already). These combinations of abilities allowed him to become an incredibly talented hunter, and has allowed him to master the art of stealth too.

He is 24 and has blue eyes. No one really knows what he looks like because he always wears a hood which covers a large proportion of his face. He is kind and caring, but is also hard and ruthless at times.
