Velheim

An elderly human male, with a thin, gaunt frame dressed in exquisite, albeit slightly tarnished, robes adorned with gold embroidery. His face is lined with deep creases, and he sports a thin beard that has turned gray and wispy. His eyes are a sharp, calculating green. Despite his frail appearance, he carries an air of authority, augmented by the way he holds himself - haughty and proud.

Cynical and money-driven, Eldrin is primarily motivated by self-interest and wealth accumulation. He is untrusting and often suspects others of seeking to undermine his standing. While he can be charming when it serves his purpose, his true nature reveals itself through deceit and manipulation. Paranoia underlies his interactions, leading him to play others against one another to protect his interests. Ultimately, Eldrin is haunted by the legacy of his family, which he has destroyed in pursuit of power and wealth.

Eldrin Blackthorn once belonged to one of the most esteemed families in the realm, known for their influence and wealth in the political landscape. Eldrin's rise to power was marked by cunning dealings and clandestine arrangements that allowed him to manipulate council policies to benefit his own financial gains. With no family to uphold the nobility of his surname, he became consumed by the desire for wealth and control. Eldrin's heart grew cold as he amassed riches, caring little for the plight of the common folk or the integrity of the council. While he once addressed the people's needs with promise, he has since traded those ideals for gold. Now, in his twilight years, Eldrin sits atop a mountain of ill-gotten gains, looking to secure his legacy, despite its ruinous state. He knows time is running out and fears the ignominy of dying alone and forgotten—his wealth, perhaps, the only remnant of his once-great family name.
