Alaeis


Time and harsh experience have changed a once-shy boy into a cold, cynical man. He is slow to trust, and rather cool towards people. A childhood terror from spooked and angry animals that sensed the Fiend-taint of his blood has evolved into a deep, and generally mutual distaste for fauna. Through his early teens, the demon half of his heritage has manifested itself as a fierce temper, which he has had to work to keep in check. He has an insatiable lust for knowledge and new experiences. He is very intelligent and calculating, with an exceptional aptitude for language.

Alaeis grew up as a quiet, thoughtful child with an instinctive distrust of strangers. As the son of a demon and sidhe, he has the appearance of a normal sidhe, but the taint of fiends running through his blood. Animals could sense this, and were easily spooked or angered in his presence. The reasoning of a young child took this as a personal dislike and intent to injure, so he grew up fearing, and later despising animals. This aversion was later reinforced as a young adult when a particularly vicious creature left him with a scar across his face.

He has always had a passion for learning, and developed a fascination with books and the endless knowledge they contain at an early age. Though his far-reaching goal is to build a grand library and fill it with the knowledge of the ages, all of his current efforts are bent on ambitions of being a great scholar and powerful mage.

Alaeis raised his daughter Aarien as best he could. Sheltering and protecting her from any threat, she was kept almost hidden from the world for her first seven years. It was not to last however, nothing is after all. Alaeis would not make it to see his daughter grown, upon attempting to become a Liche, he would fail in casting the magics correctly, causing his own death.
