Biography(This should include the history of your character and his
life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):
There I was, 3 elven years old, my father killed by a group of
cloaked warriors, who were sent to kill them because they had
discovered information that could bring the kings tyranny to an end in
our home lands. I was hiding at the time of the struggle, in the keep
of our home underneath a cupboard that had a small knothole within it,
so I could see it all, every attempt to beg for there lives, and the
final blow that took out my father, I had a hard time finding my
mother after the attack but I found her being dragged just outside the
city walls, I made chase, but it was no use they were too far away, it
took me a while to get over the attack so from that point on I devoted
my life to finding out more information on the readings, and
scriptures my parents had discovered. My occupation of town bookkeeper
and writer made it much easier to get research done.
Then one day I'd say about 2 elven years later, 8 to you humans, I was
arriving back home after spending my day in the Grand Library, only to
see fire and destruction as far as the eye could see... My home had
been attacked and as I was walking through the wreckage I see two
things a pauldron that has the emblem of the kings knighthood, and a
pendant with my families crest upon it, so I concluded that it was the
same warriors that attacked and killed my father, and took my mother
long ago. I finished looking through the wreckage, grabbed my satchel,
filled it with the necessity's and a note left to me by my father a
few days before his death, and started off in search of another
society to call home.
After wandering for months, foraging off of the lands to survive, I
stumble across a large town which by the looks of it has been here for
quite some time. I go inside and see a few signs, this is apparently
the town they call "Laurelin". I generally like to keep to myself, but
in times like these I need to find somewhere to rest. I come across a
youngly looking elven lady and ask if there was somewhere that I could
rest for the night, and she says "Sure! Come with me miss." so I
follow her into her home, she says I can stay as long as I need. So I
tell her my story and she seems awe-struck and now that I think of it,
who wouldn't be? She continues to tell me that a young elf such as
myself shouldn't have to go through such hardships, and she repeats
how I may stay for as long as I need. So for the time being I guess
I'll call this place... Home.
Your characters ambitions:To discover what my parents had been
researching, what made the old king send that group of warriors long
ago, and to conquer my everlasting thirst for knowledge.

Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two

thought "I'm finished" and right before he finishes me... The elf
comes to my rescue and takes out the bandit and helps me up and with a
swift pull of my bow, I make quick work of the distracted bandit. Me
and the other elf exchange pleasantry's and he offers me some simple
goods, such as bread and pork.

myself in conflict when absolutely necessary.
