Character Biography - Hirlef Greenbreeze
12 years ago
General
I know it's not been that long since my last one, but I recently got a rush of inspiration and created a pretty detailed backstory for Hirlef here, so here's his bio ^^
Name: Hirlef Greenbreeze
Race: Half-Elf
Age: 28~
Class: Druid
Hair: Pale green (though his natural hair colour is a golden blonde), Long, usually rather unkempt.
Skin Colour: Lightly-tanned (I'm seeing a pattern with many of my characters)
Personality: Introverted, Reserved, A deep-seeded almost-feral lust (though he keeps this very well hidden and in control most of the time)
History: Before Hirlef was born, his mother, Kasse, was on a mission to gather samples of plantlife from Faerdeil. It was very rare the elves sent their own outside of elven lands, and as always she was expected to keep up a constant invisibility spell. She eventually came upon a farm, figuring it to be a perfect place to procure some sample, but as she began gathering some, she laid eyes on the ridiculously-well-muscled farmhand tending the fields. So different from elves in physique, his bronzed, beefy torso on full display. She knew she was unlikely to ever lay eyes on a human again, especially one as enormous as he. Needless to say she was smitten, and took the gutsy move of lowering her invisibility shield. Rather shocked at the sudden appearance of the elven maiden, but quite taken with her ravishing appearance, the two were soon in the hayloft, at it like rabbits. When it came time to part, the man gifted the woman with some fresh produce, and asked if he would see her again. She accepted the gift, kissing him on the cheek but not answering, knowing the truth would only upset them both if she worded it.
Soon she was back in the elven capital, and after a few months she gave birth to Hirlef. Knowing the elves hatred of inter-species relations, and the fact that Hirlef luckily passed for a full-blooded elf, she pretended he was, indeed, an elf. As he grew older however, his more human-features became much more apparent, and not long after he reached his fifth birthday, the truth was out and he was exiled from elven lands. Due to her contributions to the elven people however, Kasse was given the option of staying, and having her sordid affair with a human waived. She couldn't stand abandoning her son though, and volunteered to be exiled with him.
With nowhere else to go, and with limited knowledge of the land outside the elven barriers, she went to the only place she knew, the farm. It still stood, and she soon learnt that the farmhand she'd previously fallen for was now the owner of the place. The two reunited and both them and Hirlef lived happily ever after, until...
One stormy night there was a battering on the door, and as Kasse answered, she was knocked back off her feet. It was a trio of cloaked men, elves, saying they'd been sent by a man in the capital to kill both Kasse and Hirlef. In the ensuring fight, Kasse's lover managed to dispatch two of the assassins, but not before the third saw an opening, and with one swift movement, cut the elven woman down. Before the human could get revenge though, he had fled, and all he could do was mourn the loss of the woman he held so dear.
Hirlef, who had been hiding during the whole ordeal, but bore witness to the whole thing, decided his mere presence there would put his father at risk. The next morning, after burying his mother, he said his final goodbye to the farmer, and headed off into the wilderness.
For the next ten or so years, he lived as a hermit, deep in the furthest reaches of Faerdeil, and grew into a rather talented druid. Throughout all of it though, and to this day, he still carries his mother's focusing crystal, a symbol of his elven heritage, and the large crack across it's surface a reminder of his exile.
