Millyn Ashwood

Writer: T. Theriault
E-mail: [email protected]

Race: Half Elf

Appearance:

Millyn leans more towards his human bearings in general appearance, with a height of 5'10 and weight of 160 pounds. A shortly cropped shock of deep fiery auburn hair allows for his ears which come to a very sharp prominent point to show through, revealing his elven half without a second glance. His ears are the only defining feature that truly show off his nature of being a half elf.  His eyes are Mercurial, (they change color with his moods) most often staying a calming gray color. When aroused to anger they change to a deep brown, gold flecks spreading from the center. His eyes very rarely change from the calming gray color, nor does the smile spread across his face change either. He is normally dressed like that of a traveler. Tunic, cape, riding breeches, riding boots and gloves. The tunic and cape a deep navy blue, well worn and patched from use. Riding Breeches a dun color, dust covered, dark green knee patches haphazardly sewn on; the difference of color in the patches most apparent. The Riding boots and gloves are of a soft, thin, durable leather which is well worn yet still in marvelous shape.
    
    
Equipment:

For a thief Millyn himself has a large amount of equipment, kept to a confined area such as his entire outfit doubling to a workable sneaking suit. His riding breeches double as a pair of black sneaking breeches, which are pulled close to the body with a few drawstrings, the fabric is virtually rustle free and very rarely betrays his presence. Beneath his tunic he wears a close conforming pouched shirt which contains a lightweight lockpicking kit, two small containers of weaponblack (enough to cover a dagger in each vial). The inside lining of his boots is of a black cloth which pulls over the original riding boots through means of taking the outer sole off to clasp the cloth beneath it. The soles themselves are reversible the bottoms doubling as another soft fabric to muffle the sounds of his footsteps. Millyn also carries two daggers at his sides one out in plain sight, the other hidden. The only other weapon out in plain sight upon him is a short sword. The only thing that he keeps as a memoir of his family is a dulled silver medallion in the shape of a wolf head. In each eye of the wolf there is a jewel set, one blue, the other red. This medallion hangs about his neck tucked beneath his shirt kept away from the prying eyes of others. The medallion is believed to have magical properties but of what kind is unknown and have not been explored actively by the wearer.

Abilities:

Abilities that Millyn has are that of being extremely agile for his size and weight, capable of most tasks that require any form of dexterity, allowing for little equipment carrying when it comes to breaking into an area. Any equipment he does happen to need he seems to have been blessed with the good luck to find. His only other ability is that of being able to hide and sneak about undetected in even seemingly the most dangerous areas. Millyn also is incredibly adaptable to most situations set in front of him so is capable of survival in most areas with minimal supplies.

Personality:

With an honest face and wide smile, he often exudes the air of a small country boy far away from his home. Realizing this he has made use of this to con people out of money and supplies and equipment, piping the story that he's traveling all over the world trying to make money for his family back at home. People are instantly taken merely by the kind looks in Millyn's face. His personality in actuality is one of a more self-serving nature when it comes to strangers. Even so he does have an ingrained sense of honor for a price. Money rules his world and money is his ultimate goal in all things. If he can make a buck off someone he will do so. He very rarely makes friends easily, even traveling comrades for a long period of time will be sold out if the price is right. On the outside he is quite amiable and kind to those around him, instilling a sense of trust between the both of them, only to be used to his own ends. Very rarely will he stick up for a comrade should they face a life or death situation. Millyn has a deep running hatred/paranoia for "true" elves and dislikes greatly to be around them. (if around them for too long he will become violent and possibly irrational) All in all.. Millyn is a self-serving, money grabbing, very emotionally solitary individual who knows how to turn a smile and make people follow him around till he decides to drop them. He only kills people who are of no particular use to him or happen to know something that could be considered harmful to his anonymity. To protect his own anonymity he will casually give out a false name usually something very non descript, such as Millane, or Allain, (he deviates very rarely from these names) 

History:

Millyn is a native to Ileun (what Region I don't know quite yet). Born of a human and a half elf, shunned by those around him for being "impure" amongst the elven community, he was thrust out into the forest left to die (yea it's a particularly nasty elven village :D). His only gift and protection being the silver medallion hung about his neck.  Fortunately he was found by a half-elf that he would later know as Alder, who also just happened to be a retired thief. Teaching him the skills of a thief Alder taught Millyn the value of money and personal strength. He taught him how to adapt to the worst conditions, feeding into Millyn that same hatred and paranoia that Alder had harbored all his life in the process. Millyn quickly learned the trade of a thief, perfecting the arts required with ease. Leaving his forest home at a young age, taught to survive alone or not at all even in the company of another, Millyn began the long journey of his life.
