Ecksel

This short half elf seemed to be mostly harmless. He was only five and a half feet tall, but the way he walked around with his shoulders slouched he would appear a lot shorter. He had a dark tanned complexion, close to a cool bronze color that seemed fairly natural. He had straight black hair that went down to his ankles and were kept in a neat braid. His hair usually hung over his hazel eyes that were mostly brown with bright green centers. The half elf's hair also hid his right ear that was cropped about half way, but his left ear was unusually long for a half elf and stuck out. His eyebrows were a little on the bushy side and his face was a little gaunt. His build was slender and he looked fairly bony. He had little to no upper body strength, but he had better built legs. Perfect for running off in fear. Curently he was wearing a bright red long coat, a white tunic that had many repairs made to it and black pants.

In short, Ecksel used to be a jerk. Well, actually he still is a jerk but his jerkiness faded away when he decided to transfer almost all of his memories into a shiny glass bauble. For him it was a new start. The painful memories would no longer burden him or make him terrified of interacting with other people.

However some of his personality quirks remained. He still feels very uneasy approaching people and even worse in a crowd. He still has a fear of people in positions of authority and nobility. The half elf is prone to bouts of depression or sadness for he is unsure of himself and terrified of messing things up. He also still has a very hard time relating to other people empathizing with others.

Overall, he has a deep seeded self loathing that he can't seem to get rid of or explain. Ecksel will for the most part will say exactly whats on his mind even if it insults people or snap at anyone when he gets too frustrated. For the most part he has been trying to improve as well as hide his sadness. Due to people always complaining about how much of a downer he is, he learned to hold it inside and pretend to smile or act as any other normal person without problems no matter how he really feels.

Half elf:
Ecksel is part Sun elf so obviously he has some perks.
He can live longer and look younger. He ages 1 year for every 2.5 years. He has low light vision, although limited. He has a natural affinity for magic. How ever he has a very thin build, almost fragile and lacks in strength.

Olmeid:
Olmeid is a made up race of humans from a land that is heavily based on Polynesia with some mesoamerica. He does not get very many perks from this. So far the only perks he seems to get is that he does not often get sunburns. These races of humans for hundreds of years have developed a knack for thievery so he has thin fingers and is rather dexterous with them. He is also pretty quick on his feet, although he only seems to be quick when something or someone is chasing him. He also has very, very basic knowledge of slight of hand, and lock picking. However the islanders lack immunities from being so isolated from the outside world, so Ecksel has a very weak immune system. The common cold would knock him out for weeks and influenza will nearly kill him.

Inventory:
Magical

Glundrodasmidr: This is actually a magical musical instrument that is made manifest from his magic. It is a polynesian style drum that he beats in order to cast his bigger magic spells.

A glass bauble about two inches in diameter that contains him memories and acts "worry stone" that calms him. He has this set into Setti his weapon.

One enchanted, very luck card deck. made from the foreskin of an old roman god. This deck allows him to alter or curb fate and his chaos magic in his favor.

One dark red almost black coat with a hood. This is his coat of shadow, and striking him where his jacket is, inflicts the status effect of blindness onto whoever strikes him. The status effect lasts about 30 seconds, which isn't long but long enough for him to run away.

One Ring with an a small compartment with anti magic dust that will affect someone or him if breathed in for one minute.

An enchanted fur coat to protect him from extreme frozen temperatures and keep him from freezing to death.

An enchanted lei of flowers, to never wilt or die. He wears this on occasion.

Items Owned or shared
A very ornate, wooden box.. the box is lined with crimson velvet and there's a little note inside that says, "Memory box - put something in today, and something in every time something special happens from here on out. Let this box hold tidbits of your new life together so that one day when you're old, you can look back on it and.. remember."

A box of made of slats of walnut and ash, stained to a warm honey shade with a cursive R on the lid. Inside is a long and squat mantel clock also in warm honey-gold stained walnut. It is already set to the correct time and ticking. In addition to the time, it also records the moon phase, and tracks the sunrise and sunset, and smaller dials tell the day of the week and month. There is a lever to control if it chimes every quarter hour, is silent at night, or silent all the time. A second lever on the other side controls if it's just a regular chime at the top of the hour, or a choice of three songs. It also comes of course with a winding key, though the plaque on the case states it uses changes in air pressure to wind itself in normal use. The plaque also reads: "To Ecksel and Islington. The most important gift one can give to another is Time. May you always have some to spare for each other. -VvM" On the underside of the clock, it is marked out: Made by Master Emmanuel M. Rophe & apprentice Dawn Khiann"

An orb made of angel aura quartz with two interlocked hearts nestled within, one natural kukui wood, the other black-stained kukui wood. The orb was nestled in a pair of white wings, looking strikingly like Issy's own with a string of carved hibiscus flowers in colors ranging from red to blue. a small wind-up key was on the back, denoting that this was a music box of some kind.


Mundane
Cloth tied together
one loose leaf journal.
shell and bead bracelet. With these bracelets around his wrists and ankle, he is able to channel his magic through sound and cast smaller more readily to use spells.


Weapons:
One weapon appears as a piece of jewelry. It looks like a black snake armlet that is coiled around his left arm. With this weapon, he can form it into any weapon or armor he desires. However, he is limited to only a spear and dagger. (For those are the only ones he knows how to use.) He can concentrate (He must prep [1/1] for dagger or knife and [2/2] for spear.)on this weapon to get a weapon sharper or harder but because he doesn't quite fully understand it or how to use it, he has only ever made it hard as brittle obsidian. He does however know how to make it extend to a point. Mostly about six feet long at the maximum. (Again I need to prep it.)The weapon is called Setti and was a gift to him from a friend whom he does not remember and is soul bound to him. If the weapon is taken from him, it become a useless black gooey substance and on occasion comes to him when he calls it. Some of the times. As of now he is unaware of it as a weapon but sees it as a piece of jewelry that is literally attached to him.

(I wish I could give a more epic story or background to how he acquired this weapon, but sadly that is exactly how he acquired Setti.)

Strangely enough, this half elf has a double Aura. The first layer is his "Chaotic Aura" The first clue some that there's something supernatutually wrong with the half elf. It consist of bright colors and changes constantly. It also arcs to people that he likes and away from people he loathes. At times when he is stresed, small things with in three feet of him can get flung about wildly. Sometimes the colors will reflect the elements or magical energies around it. (I.E. When near water elemental things, it turns blue-green.) Also, this "aura' has a way of reacting with sound. When he is agitated, either with fear, or anger it begins to vibrate, messing with sound. Resulting in a very annoying and very faint ringing noise. this can act as a warning to some to back off, away or help the half elf to clam down.

Underneath that is a perfectly "normal" aura often consisting of muddied reds and patches of sulfuric yellow. For more info, please see abilities.
