Bio/Description:
Relin was born in Spellguard to two very proud parents. Being Sun Elves the didn't fit in at most other towns, but in Spellguard people didn't seem to care about race. only magic use. They had migrated from the Great Forest on Xantril to try to find a pure and stable place to delve deeper into their study of magic. They both were strong followers of Lucinda and her teachings, thus they raised Relin with the same respect. He grew up over the years hearing of the terrible massacres and bloodshed of Blood and his armies. He grew to hate Blood's ways and swore to protect Layonara's people from Blood's terrony. When he became an adult his parents told him to leave home and discover it's secrets in order to become a great wizard. He explored Layonara for 15 years and returned home to spellguard to tell his parents of all that he had learned (he had become a great wizard, mastering many of Lucinda's ways, yet he still had much to learn). Once he entered the gates of his home he could feel that something was wrong. A good friend of his parents was at his home and his parents were no where to be found. He asked the friend where his parents were. The friend, a good man of the name Tom, told Relin that five years ago his parents had been asked to travel to Xantril with a party to scout and discover the plans of Blood. The small party was massacred by undead that were lead by a small band of drow. Only one survivor remained to bring back the terrible news. Relin was crushed and he grew to hate the drow with avengence. He traveled to Xantril to discover his parent's final resting place.
Once he arrived he met a wizard by the name Torrany. Torrany gained Relin's trust and he became a comrad and a friend. Torrany was a wise and experienced human. Relin and Torrany reached the bloodied spot of the massacre from five years earlier and Relin wept. He stood with new found strength and mission. Torrany and Relin continued until they came upon an entrance into the underdark. They entered and traveled invisibily and safely. A came came into view about twenty meters away. Relin decided to scout it while Torrany remained behind. Relin discovered that it was a camp of drow, a powerful group. He was on his way back to Torrany to report his findings and to dicuss their options of attack when somehow one of their sorcerers spotted him through his invisible cloak. They grabbed him and tortured him. He would not give up his friend's wherebouts. As he was drifting into unconciousness he heard a drow say, "We shall strip him of his knowledge of magics and allow our blessed underdark to kill him." The other drow argued with the speaker. They wanted his blood for themselves. The drow who suggested stripping Relin of his powers was arguing with them until he finally convinced them that it would be a crueler death. Relin felt terrible heat as they cast their spells. His body felt a if it was being ripped apart. His last vision before he slipped into the darkness was the figure of Torrany storming into the camp.

He awoke from what seemed like a year long sleep, feeling weakend. He looked around the room and saw a human slumped in a chair. It was Torrany. Relin tried to lift himself and he managed to drag himself over to Torrany's limp body. Torrany was dying. Relin saw his eyes flutter open, "My...friend." he managed to breath out.
Relin took his hand, "Torrany, my friend, it seems that you have used the last of the potions on me, " Relin whispered as he fumbled through the knapsack.
Torrany tried to smile, "I saved you from the drow and brought you here."
Relin ripped off some of his cloak to hold pressure on Torrany's massive stomach wound, pushing his intestines back into his abdominal wall. "Hush, my friend. You will not die. I will not lose my parents and you to those dirty drow."
Torrany shuttered in pain and gasped, "I am dying and you should not discount all drow for goodness. One of them helped me drag you out. He helped them steal the magic from you, but it was to save your life from certain death. Once I reached you he was already fighting them off you, they had no intention of allowing the underdark to kill you. They wanted your blood for themselves. He and I fought our way out carrying you. Once outside he took his leave. I have tried my best with my last strength to heal you and endow you with some beginner spells." He started convulsing in pain, "th...the rest...is...up to you..." Torrany gasped again for air, "Promise me you will not give into hate...promise me you will remember me by mastering your arts again...promise..."
Relin held his friend close as he gasped and convulsed, "I...promise my friend. I promise." Torrany gasped one last time then lay still in the arms of Relin. Relin wept over the loss of Torrany and the loss of his parents. He buried Torrany on a hill in the brightest spot he could find in the Great Forest. Once he had equipped himself he made his way home and heard the summoning of the great dragon. He swore an oath on that sacred spot that Torrany's and his parent's deaths would be avenged and that he would dedicate his life to magic and the discovery of the mysterious drow that helped save his life.

Relin is noble and honorable yet his life ha been tainted with pain and loss so he can be moody. He still does not trust the drow but he is driven to find the one that helped save him. He lives his life with a goal, to see the fall of Blood and to avenge his parents and his friend. In order to achieve his goal he has to relearn all of the spells that were taken from him from his years of experience. He enters Hlint from the dragon's presence with new found hope and determination to make his parent's and Torrany proud.

This is a good bio Romona, but claims of once being a great wizard at such a young age before all knowledge was lost gets me a little bit off. Can you make it more along the lines of a fairly competent wizard?

Also, the likelihood of a massive undead invasion lead by drow on Voltrex is something I'm not sure of as happening. Any of the other continents would do, but Voltrex as history knows right now is fairly safe from dark elves and undead invasions. This would be something history would surely have written of.

[RomonaBlack]

I made the changes, now the massacre is smaller, the undead is not an army and he hadn't learned every spell. I hope that that helps.

[EdTheKet]

As orth already mentioned, it's not likely to have happened on Voltrex (the undead/drow raiding party even though you've made it smaller). Might want to consider the parents going back to Xantril where they used to live to scout or something and have them buried in the Great Forest?
Also, a drow wouldn't say this about an elf: " A fellow elf deserves that much for making it this far into our borders."

[RomonaBlack]

Ok...I was trying to establish that the drow that helped save him might be a little different than most drow by saying that of him but I've changed it none-the-less because I've been waiting forever for this to be approved. I have also changed it to Xantril. I just thought that the most evil was on Voltrex but I'm no expert. Pleeeease like this one.

Better thank you

Approved.

Voltrex is the continent of Elves. Xantril is the one of most evil.
