In-Character Details

Character Name: Eluana Sweetgrass

Character Race: Half Elf (High Elf) Half Human

Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: Eluana's story begins before her birth. Way before her birth. It actually started with her mother. A young scholar of  Haelun'or,  her mother was well loved. A beautiful elven woman with long silver hair named Jalia Sweetgrass. She mad her father proud when she chose a strong young warrior by the name of Elios. He spent many seasons courting her before she finally accepted his proposal. Jalia wed him by the second spring and they moved into their own home. 

 

As years passed by, Jalia wandered further away from her home, into the forests. She felt at peace as she walked. It wasn't long before she stumbled across the body of a young hunter. He was badly injured and barely conscious. She did not even think of the reprocussions of her actions as she got him to her home. Elios was not home at the time and Jalia managed to the young man onto her bed. She spent her time healing and treating his wounds, helping him gain his strength. When Elios returned home, he found Jalia with the young man. Demanding that the boy be thrown back out into the wild, he found himself on the ground. 

 

Jalia would not let Elios harm the man. "He is injured." she said. "He will leave when he is well." With that Elios left the house, swearing he would not be near such a "disgusting" creature. For weeks Jalia nursed the man back to health, despite the dark words spread by her husband. She had learned much about the man and the world beyond the woods. Within the few weeks she had been in Reginald's company, she found herself feeling different. She had fallen for the young hunter. When he was finally well enough to leave, her family was more than willing to throw him out, much to Jalia's protest. 

 

As Reginald wandered back into the forest, he found himself being followed. Ready to slay the creature that followed, he was surprised when he found Jalia had followed him. She begged for him to take her with him. With much protest, he finally agreed and the two fled the land. Reginald was hesitant to admit he had fallen for the elven woman, but it was soon hard for him to deny it. When the two reached his homeland, Arethor, Reginald proclaimed his love and the two were married in secret. 

 

Jalia felt no regret at throwing away her elven life to be with the man she loved. It was not long before the couple found themselves with child. Cast out by not only the elven society, but also human, the two moved into the forest. Reginald built them a small home in the forest and there they had their daughter, Eluana Sweetgrass. They had wished to keep the name only to remind her of her heritage. The time flew by for the small family in bliss. Jalia adored her daughter and Reginald protected them both. 

 

However, things tend to go wrong in the forest. One night, the beasts were on the prowl. Reginald took up arms to protect his family and waited by the door. Eluana had just turned four and was hiding with her mother in the room when everything went wrong. A howl close to home scared Eluana and she screamed. The cracking of wood was a dark indicator that her noise had drawn the beasts in. Reginald did his best to fend off the great beasts as they entered. He managed to cut down a black furred creature before his cries of battle were silenced. 

 

Jalia feared for her daughters's safety and hid the young girl under the floorboards. Hiding in the crawlspace, Eluana could see very little of the area above her. A loud splintering sound issued forth above her and the sound of her mother begging could be heard. It was within moments that Jalia had quieted and her blood running free. Eluana began crying as her mother's blood seemed into the crawlspace, alerting the white beast of her location. She screamed as the beast thrust his paw into the crawl space, trying to grab her. 

 

Eluana moved as fast as she could, trying to flee the attack but it was not long before the pain of torn flesh was felt. She screamed before everything went black. She awoke weeks later in a soft comfortable bed. A sound alerted her of company. An elder man, in his late forties it seemed, sat next to her bed. Introducing himself as Victor Alexander IV, a lord, he told her of how he helped her survive her attack. He promised her safety for as long as she needed it, asking her for anything she could remember. 

 

The following months were hard for Eluana. She had nightmares of the night, but she could never remember more than what had happened. When she turned six, she pledged herself as a servant to Victor, feeling him more as a father than a protector. She served under him for years, content with her life. As she grew to fourteen, she noticed that there were more changes in store for her, and they were very unpleasant. It wasn't long before she fled, fearing for her own safety.

 

What are your characters ambitions?: To be free of her chains and her nightmares.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:Eluana is a quiet person. She rarely opens up to people and rarely speaks until she knows someone. Having fled from place to place, she fears most people believing they will either harm her or turn her in to her old master. Once she opens up to people, she is a generally kind and calm person. She is easily attached to those who help her and often it leads her into trouble. Unable to distiguish emotions most of the time, she tends to become easily confused and often left hurt and upset. She wants nothing more than to be accepted and be a normal girl.

 

Open-Response-Questions

Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.

 

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?Eluana looked towards the shopkeeper, confused as to why he looks so different. Raised in a sheltered life, she had never seen a dwarf before. Curious, she slowly approached the dwarf and looked him over. Her soft turquoise eyes glittered as she listed to his talk. "S-Sir?" she whispered softly, her voice barely catching his attention. "What can this get?" She opens her small pouch to pull out a few measily coins she managed to pick up off the road. She smiled as he handed her a small trinket, thanking her for her business. A soft rumble is heard from her stomach before she turns away. "Thank you." With that she turns back to try and find something to tend to her baren stomach.

 

You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? Eluana saw the orc before she heard him. A small squeak is heard from her as she dashes behind a tree, too skiddish to approach such a large creature. Her eyes widened with shock as she listened to him threaten the smaller man. Gathering up the tiny amount of courage she possessed, Luna slowly crept out and faced the orc. "U-Um...exuse me..." she whispered softly. "I...I don't think you should-" Her voice cut off as the orc turned towards her. With another squeak she turned and hid back in the trees.

 

Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: "Oh!" Eluana gasped as she watched the elderly man fall. She quickly moved to his aid and looked him over. "Are you alright?" She glanced down at the coins on the ground, unsure as to their value. Her attention quickly turned back to the man as she helped him sit up. Looking around, she managed to spot another stick nearby and she quickly picked it up. "Here, let me help you."
