Ebon

A young man with translucent skin that glimmers faintly in the dim light, Elysian's most used appearance is that of a scruffy street urchin. His hair is a tousled mess of dark strands, and his eyes, though bright, carry a weight of sorrow that belies his age. He wears tattered clothing that blends into the shadows, often draped in a cloak made from the remnants of his kin, its fabric cool to the touch. His features shift subtly to mirror those around him, allowing him to blend seamlessly into crowds, but his ethereal presence remains a haunting reminder of his true nature. Elysian's expression is often stoic, with a hint of bitterness, as he navigates the grim streets of Ebon, searching for the remnants of his lost heritage.

Cynical and cold, Elysian has little empathy for the suffering of others, viewing the world as a cruel joke. He is driven by a singular purpose, often lost in thought about the past and the remnants of elven magic. His interactions are marked by a detached demeanor, and he rarely shows vulnerability, preferring to keep others at arm's length.

Once a radiant being of starlight, Elysian was born from the remnants of a failed elven ritual, a Comet Child cursed to wander the grimdark world of Ebon. Witnessing the slaughter of his kin at the hands of the Empire's Inquisitors, he learned to embrace the coldness of his existence, adopting a cynical view of the world around him. In a moment of clarity, he shapeshifted into a child to escape death, allowing him to blend into the shadows of society. Now, he roams the ashen streets, searching for the site of the ritual that shattered his family, hoping to find a way to turn it off and reclaim the lost magic of his ancestors. Elysian's heart is hardened, and he feels little empathy for the suffering of others, viewing them as mere reflections of his own pain. He is driven by a singular purpose: to uncover the remnants of elven magic and end the cycle of despair that has consumed Ebon.
