Trystan

[attr="class","appcontent2"]He is a very charismatic, charming young elf. He likes speaking to people and traveling. What he truly hates is being cooped up and feeling worthless. Perhaps it is because he is a commoner that he is truly trying to prove himself to his father and siblings(though his family do love him like a true member). He is always striving to be better. Though there has been problems in the past, he does like human beings and is one their side of the war. He is gifted in speaking a few languages since he has had to adapt to the changes in the human realm. Though he is a bastard, he is second in line for the throne. He is well liked and very intellectual.

He can be impatient at times and he can trust people too easily. He has a sense of family honor and would do absolutely anything for them. He is truly proud to be an elf. He makes sure that everything he does benefits his species. Though he can be impatient, he has a heart of gold, caring about others above himself. Though he is considered royalty, he has no real ambitions for the throne, merely to help his family and make the world a better place.

[attr="class","appcontent2"]War. Blood is spilt. The Earth polluted by the stench of decaying bodies. Vultures take advantage of the fickleness of species, indiscriminate of its next meal. Though humans are believed to be the most susceptible to blundering their own, it was not just restricted to them. For a very long time, the elves were divided depending upon their upbringing and their values: the dark elves were greatly feared, their love for fire and darkness, the high elves believing to be the best of them all and degrading all other forms of elves due to their high births.

Others like the Wood elves, ones who harboured both temperaments wished for some longing peace. There was no advantage or disadvantage between the elves, simply how they chose to live their lives. There would be a unity and there would be an order. This would be achieved but at a great cost. A great many lives would be lost, the threat of the extinction of elves to be a very real possibility.

However, some of the pressure was alleviated. Under the leadership of Leif, various areas across Europe began to see some peace, a brokered agreement throughout their realm. It was a shaky agreement but one that helped save them and their beloved Aos Sí . It took a lot of building of trust, the divisions of elves still apparent, still deep rooted even in some of the more open minded. Leif would spend a lot of time and resources irradiating such discrimination, seeing the devastating impact that it had.

Centuries later, the numbers only started to recuperate for the elves. The elves of Aos Sí were at last at the peak from before the war. The barriers between the realms have been slowly disintegrating. Where once there was a clear divide between themselves and other species, now various holes could allow travel between them. To some this has led vampires and others to corrupt the nature of the elves. Others saw this as a way for the species to grow.

For hundreds of years the Elvin royal family would not have had much time for the likes of Trystan. He was an orphan by a couple of centuries. The king and his children were progressing throughout the kingdom, building unity between its people. Trystan had gotten himself into trouble but Leif had seen him. The king Leif, though high born had seen Trystan and had insisted that he be looked after by his family. It was simply unprecedented but Leif would not be persuaded otherwise. Some speculated it was a way to make the highborn seem less alien to the more lower elves or simply because Leif had a fancy.

Trystan though believing himself to be simply a commoner is in fact the illegitimate child of his father Leif and his biological mother. His mother died soon into his infancy, leading him into mischief and mayhem. Recognising the child, Leif brought him in under the pretext of protecting the child. This was in fact only one of the reasons. He longed to retain the last essence of Trystans mother, a woman he dearly loved. He would know a bit about his mother, how she had beautiful silvery eyes and luscious black hair.

Being different had led to his siblings initially rejecting him. Yet over the years, their love grew, not seeing themselves as any different. Perhaps it truly helped that he had no ambitions for the throne even if Leif insisted that he was in line for it. Trystan simply longed to be a family and to help them when the time came for his older brother to rule. He fought harder than anyone else did, he trained harder, exerting himself to the brink of exhaustion. When he was being taught languages, he would plunge himself into learning, asking his stepsister for help a great many occasions. He would do anything for his siblings and his father. He felt like he did not deserve their love and thus pushed himself to great lengths.

Though his father would have loved to have kept him with him, he realised that Trystan could not be contained. He needed to be free. He loved climbing the walls, he liked jumping into high places. He truly wanted to see the world around him. Giving his blessing, he sent his son off into the world of the humans, seeing more of their culture and seeing how elves played into the world. As the barriers between the realms can be crossed, even by humans if they knew where to look then they had a great deal of issues with what was awaiting them in this great world.

Trystan has been all over the world, delving into the other worlds just as much as the Earth itself. It seemed like other places were having their lands integrating just like his Aos Sí forming a part of what was known as Ireland. To the majority of humans, they would not know what he was except for the meagre fact that over the last 100 years people have been fixated on his species. There has been even a great many movies about it: hobbit to name one. Still Trystan would laugh at some of the inconsistencies with the movies and books even if he did enjoy them. As to the other species, he was not sure but he would meet a great many people and protect his lands.

In truth, he is prepared for war against the vampires, taking the side of humans and his own. Though he sees the flaws in humans, he fears the great threat of the bloodsuckers. The elves have had a hard time trusting the vampires and do not like the way their death is hindering the natural order of nature. The very being there are the immortal dead does not make them. He has seen a great many wars. With the very best of elfish and dwarves weaponry, he scours the world hoping for a peace. He looks for a way to impress his father. The seasons change from summer to winter. Trystan himself has seen hell. It was white: snow white.
