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.): Elijah was found near a large steppe region as a baby. He was taken in by a dwarven mining community in the mountains adjacent to the steppe. The dwarves decided that it was best to teach him what they knew of elf traditions, but they also taught him of their stringent moral code. He was given a bow and he was frequently brought hunting to learn. Though he grew quite good with a bow and the dwarves preferred crossbow he began to hunt with a variety of weapons like axes, swords and spears. The dwarves also let him work the ranch and farm they maintained outside the mountain. Working the ranch taught him to ride and to take care of live stock. He also learned a bit of farming from helping out the farmers at planting and harvest time. When he wasn’t hunting or working the ranch he usually watched the dwarves build and smith, while he developed an appreciation for fine dwarven craftsmanship, he never did develop a knack for it. He spent most of his young life following this routine, honing his hunting technique and learning the best ways to raise the livestock.
When Elijah was 12 a group of human bandits raided the town. They rounded up all the inhabitants who didn’t put up a fight due to being outnumbered four to one and had the towns folk load the valuables into carts. When they finished the bandits cut down the civilians and took Elijah as a slave. The bandits were completely incompetent at treating the wounds of their own, but they needed someone who could tend their awounded, so being the racists that they were they assumed the elf could learn to be a healer fast. They gave him some books on first aid and a recipe for an easy healing potion and told him if he didn’t learn to heal a wounded man by the next injury then his usefulness would be over. Elijah did manage to create a few salves using the notes and he did save a few injured bandits in the next raid. After two years of captivity Elijah had his opportunity. The bandits had decided that getting him ingredients as they were needed was too inconvenient so they instead gave him a large supply of whatever he might need. Elijah then decided to create a poison to put in their food which he cooked. By the next morning they were all dead.
Elijah packed up his books and some supplies as well as a large purse of gold. He made his way to a large human city which he decided to settle in despite the fact that the humans there did not like elves. Elijah fell in with an elf thief named Eve who decided to take him in and teach him a few tricks for living on the street. Elijah and Eve grew to be two of the best break in artists in the city. However after two years of taking the city for all they had Eve got caught for pick pocketing. Elijah took all their earnings as well as the money he took from the bandits to pay off the guards. Despite having spent the last two years together, the two decided that it was best if they went separate ways incase someone came after them.

Open-Response-Questions
Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond? Elijah draws his bow and aims toward them and tells them that if they don't leave, he will shoot. One of the warriors charge toward Elijah and tackles him. The warrior has his sword right at Elijah neck and Elijah pulls out his dagger and stabs him in his back. Elijah crawls out from under the man and by that time, the other warrior had run away. Elijah gave the young lab a loaf of bread and tells him to be safe.
Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response? Elijah does not trust him and walks away.
Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?: He leaves it and continues on his way whistling an old hymn the dwarfs taught him when he was young.
Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond? Elijah walks away and attempts to sneak in from behind the camp to steal some food. Elijah hates having to depend on other people.
You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?: Elijah climbs up the tallest tree and plays a game. For every bandit he shoots in the chest is 1 point, and for every one he shoots in the head is 2 points. When they are all killed, Elijah walks away as if he had nothing to do with it.
