One Man's Resolve - Elijah
Name: Elijah
Class: Hero
Age: 45
Born in: Etruria, resides in Pherae
Personality: Despite harboring over a decade's worth of experience as a mercenary, it does not seem like such a harsh life has left him as grizzled as most others in his position. In fact his disposition remains surprisingly optimistic. To call him bubbly would be a stretch, but he has a sunny sense of humor and can even be a bit goofy at times. He always seems to have a smile on his face, even when things look bleak. His soul a wellspring of will in the face of impossible odds, he wears his confident, kind persona with ease and modesty.
The root of Elijah's good nature, despite all that he has experienced, stems from a heavily cultivated worldview. A worldview that encourages Elijah to look to the positives in life, and the natural good in humanity, even as reality forces him to face and accept the negatives. A delicate balance that no doubt caused him a great deal of pain throughout his life, and even to this day, but a balance that serves as his ultimate strength. An indomitable will that drives him to protect what is dearest to him.
Helpful and kind to a fault he may be, the truth is that no man survives so much death and pain truly unscathed. The shadow of one's demons never truly fades...you only grow better at combating it over time. And those who smile the most could very well be the most deserving of fear when those smiles fade.
History: A retired ex-mercenary whose daughter, having taken the same path as he did, has failed to write to him in several months. Determined to find her, he prepares to set out for the first time in years...
