'''Other features:''' Aelthir sometimes has clips hidden within his hair to help keep it out of his face. This is usually only when he is on a mission however, where it could impede with his duties as a paladin. He has no scars, or at least none that are visible to him, thanks to several great healers in his life.

As of the month of Estingua in the year of 3481, Aelthir has shortened his hair a few inches, and wears a new medallion that was crafted by Fal, more as an apology than anything. It looks similar to his Goddess' holy symbol.

Currently, Aelthir has shortened his hair a few inches, and the medallion that Fal crafted in the shape of Triana's holy symbol now hangs on the hilt of his sword.

-
More recently, the head family has changed their mandate to accept human religion in the branch families, but not the head family by Baroness Syllae Baequi'via, regardless to family dislike. It allowed for Aelthir's reinstatement into the family, as a branch family member.
+
The house was led by Aelthir's mother, Am'asha, as expected in the matriarchal nation of Leyandra. Although, Aelthir is a male, he was taught as if he were going to lead his family at some point, likely expected to be married off to another noble house at the time. Naturally, this form of teaching continued, even after his younger sister, Syllae was born to the parents and was announced to be the future head of family.
-
Aelthir himself has no older siblings, and one younger sister who is now the Baroness of the family; Syllae Baequi'via who took over Aelthir's original inheritance after he was disinherited for following a human goddess. Syllae has changed the mandate of the family to become a more proactive family toward the stance that Queen Seremela has involving humans.

-
Aelthir is the child of Aris and Am'asha Baequi'via. By title, Aris was the family head before Syllae; but Am'asha was far more diplomatic than Aris and handled many of the family matters. Both parents were proactive toward peace, but did not take the risk and change the mandate.

Many branch family members did not approve of Aelthir's reinstatement at first, and a few still continue to disapprove of him. However, many have come to accept Lady Syllae's decision.

During a situation that requires seriousness, Aelthir matches the situation. If a combat situation arises, his fabulosity takes a second seat to being the 'Fabulous Shield that protects his loved ones'. Despite his naturally fabulous nature, Aelthir is very self-sacrificial, as he would sooner be hurt over allowing his 'family' or friends to be hurt and feels he failed if one of them should fall.

When his fabulous nature is desecrated on, such as his hair getting cut by an enemy or his body being drooled on by large tentacles trying to devour him, he will become enraged with his enemy and not hold back any of his strength, becoming rather reckless in his actions, whether it is taunting the enemy and striking with full force.

He is not easy to lie to, and so he trusts his judgment greatly. He overlooks trivial issues such as species, culture, and is just generally accepting of everyone, in part because of the fact he is an elf who worships a human goddess.

He also has a slightly secretive side, especially when it comes to a few certain issues, such as what he originally set out on his pilgrimage for, or that he would sacrifice himself to protect his family. He often writes letters before going out on a mission to get out his thoughts and stresses.

Aelthir is also a very naive elf, as far anything to do with a sexual nature or anything to do with the opposite gender to the degree that Aelthir will literally give a blank stare when something of this nature is discussed.

Aelthir is not all that strong in regards to his intellect, however where he lacks in book smarts, he easily makes up with his oddly charismatic and courageous presence that he carries alongside with his fabulousity and the wisdom he has gained over the years of his pilgrimage and through all of the experiences he has ever been through.

However, with that said; the paladin is terrified of extreme heights and things to do within; this is to the point where the paladin is willing to tranquilize himself if he needs to go on an airship ride, especially after the first one.

He has become more confident since the time off, various events between protecting the weak, and learning about the world to reaffirm his faith. He believes more in the promised victory than ever before and that his friends and he will reach it, at any cost.

At the age of fifteen, Aelthir meets a Paladin of Triana and is taken by the man’s presence and how he spoke and how he stood. He’d describe it as something ‘called’ to him on that day, so he secretly went to the human gods place of worship and learned about something about Triana and the great journey by Master Paladin Palmeiro.

After the meeting, Aelthir spent several years training to be a Paladin under the Discipline of Triana, and then lived his life secretly as a Paladin of Triana for the remainder of fourteen years (since he met the master) before he was discovered by his father at his place of worship.

===Ninth-Thread Cloth Works (Ages 15-Current)===
+
===Crafting/Teaching (Ages Young-Current)===
-
“I am the soul of my needle. Cloth is my body, thread is my blood. I have tailored over a thousand pieces of cloth. Not known to man, nor known to wife. Yet this body will never wear any. So as I pray; Ninth-Thread Cloth Works!”
+
-
During the ages of fifteen to twenty, as the successor of the House of Baequi’via, Aelthir was also the heir to the family’s haberdashery, and thus was taught in the arts of tailoring. He had some trouble at first with the accuracy of where he needed to thread. Eventually he created this chant to make him focus to the point he became extremely skilled with the needle and cloth, but he has never spoken the last line of the prayer while performing the chant. The final line “Ninth-Thread Cloth Works” refers to a style of threading that he became a master of. Specifically, this was stitching an item nine times for maximum thread re-enforcement.  
+
Throughout most of Aelthir's life, he was taught how to be a tailor, as per the family's ways, alongside his normal schooling, and his training to become a Paladin of Triana. While he was studious, he was a bit of a slow learner all around, having some trouble to grasp certain stitching styles and equally certain academic subjects. He did however, excel at anything that required him speaking, charming others with his words and personality.
-
“Ninth-Thread Cloth Works” is also the name of Aelthir’s brand of tailoring and has been used to lure people in so Aelthir could interrogate for information on possible cultists.
+
Aelthir continues tailoring to current day when he can, doing less than he once did, given his present adventuring status. However, he feels some of his newer crafts come out far better than ones he's made in the past. Possibly, because he's made many less than then.
 +
 
 +
In more recent years, he began learning how to become a blacksmith, despite disliking the dirty aspects of the job, so that he could care for his armour after more difficult encounters. Ultimately, he is not extremely skilled, but he can repair platemail and chainmail as needed.
 +
 
 +
He's also learned how to cook in recent years too; simply because he misses the simple joys of delicious foods from his youth.

Fourteen years after Aelthir meets his former paladin master, his cover is blown when his fiancee at the time revealed the fact he was a worshiper of Triana on the last day of the Allrevan Grand Festival. When questioned about this, Aelthir made no action to deny his worship, and was proud of it. As Aelthir broke the cardinal rule of the House of the Baequi’via, his family ordered for his banishment from the family and his rites of 'succession' were revoked. His parents chose Syllae as a sort of Hail Mary movement
During the month of Chiarore in the year 3477, after being delivered to Allrevan, Leyandra by his comrades; The current head of the Baequi'via family, Syllae Baequi'via reinstated Aelthir into the family of the Baequi'via, regardless to the family's disapproval of her declaration. Aelthir left the home with his party and continued to follow his path with his 'family'.

After his initial banishment, Aelthir proceeded to seek refuge in the temple where he was taught. Unfortunately, one of the clerics within the church actually worked for Laviege in secret. Aelthir joined Master Palmeiro in exposing the cultist cleric and battled against him. Master Palmeiro was given a mortal wound during the fight and was dying.
+
After a battle against a crazed cultist of Laviege in which Master Palmeiro was defeated, Aelthir was the one who defeated the enemy, with a vital blow to the enemy's chest. As Palmeiro laid on his death bed, the paladin gave Aelthir a job to learn about cultists and rout them, for the good of all Reydala.  
-
On his deathbed, Master Palmeiro asked Aelthir to take up his fight and hunt down cultists of Laviege in the name of his goddess and the good of all Reydala. Aelthir answered his master's call and took up the mission, regardless to the idea he knew he could eventually be killed during this mission. His goddess would grant him victory under any mission and against any enemy and he would fight to bring about the promised victory.

Age 60
Race High Elf
Campaign Setting {{{Campaign Setting}}}
Class/Profession Fabulous Shield
Home Country Leyandra
Home Town Allrevan
Deity Triana


Name: Aelthir Ca'laruil Baequi’via

Race: High Elf

Class: Paladin

Gender: Male

Current Age: 61 years old

Birthday: 13th of Risveglio(Anfan)

Alignment: Lawful Good

Height: 5' 0"

Deity: Triana

Hair: Long Brown

Eyes: Blue.


Clothing: Aelthir is a paladin with very extravagant tastes, ranging heavily in the fabulous and beautiful, so it stands to reason that his attire would match this. His battle armour is a deep and pure blue in colour with lots silver trim along its edges so that it stands out in all circumstances.

His sword can also be considered part of his clothing as he almost always carries it at his side, being used in both combat and ritual purposes. It is a silver longsword which has been enchanted with a secret power, sometimes giving off an odd glow upon its blue handle.

As he is a fabulous man, Aelthir also usually carries around several extra sets of clothing for casual times, such as silk sleepwear, and silk clothing with intricate designs embroidered over the chest, arms and legs. (He used to carry a separate ritual longsword, but left it at the Baequi'via Estate after his first return.)

Other features: Aelthir sometimes has clips hidden within his hair to help keep it out of his face. This is usually only when he is on a mission however, where it could impede with his duties as a paladin. He has no scars, or at least none that are visible to him, thanks to several great healers in his life.

Currently, Aelthir has shortened his hair a few inches, and the medallion that Fal crafted in the shape of Triana's holy symbol now hangs on the hilt of his sword.


Background Information

Hometown

Born in Allrevan, Leyandra; Currently a Traveling Adventurer with a house in Freehaven, Nuln.

Family Background

The House of Baequi'via is a noble house of elves that live all over Leyandra. The House is well known in Leyandra for the tailors that are bred within it and most of its fortune has been acquired through tailoring. Each generation of Baequi'via learn the tailoring techniques of the previous generation as well as develop a new technique of their own. The family as a whole have a series of rules that they are required to follow. Branch Family members are instated when a new Head of House is named.

The house was led by Aelthir's mother, Am'asha, as expected in the matriarchal nation of Leyandra. Although, Aelthir is a male, he was taught as if he were going to lead his family at some point, likely expected to be married off to another noble house at the time. Naturally, this form of teaching continued, even after his younger sister, Syllae was born to the parents and was announced to be the future head of family.

Aelthir himself has no older siblings, and one younger sister who is now the Baroness of the family; Syllae Baequi'via who took over as head of family when his parents passed away. Syllae has changed the mandate of the family to become a more proactive family toward the stance that Queen Seremela has involving humans.

Many branch family members did not approve of Aelthir's reinstatement at first, and a few still continue to disapprove of him. However, many have come to accept Lady Syllae's decision.

Education

Spent fourteen years secretly training and mastering his craft as a paladin of Triana in the local Allrevan Hall of Human Worship; Spent 5 years being taught the mastery of clothwork at the Baequi'via Estate (while being homeschooled and training to become a paladin); Homeschooled from the young age of four to the age of eighteen.; Spent twenty years learning how to actively detect and root out cultists of Laviege while he worked with the Enforcers.

General Personality

It can be said that Aelthir has completely different personalities based on what he is doing at the given time, or what circumstances are taking place at the time. However, it is more correct that Aelthir has separate parts to his personality which he masterfully uses more of when times call for it.

During any given situation that does not call for any level of seriousness, Aelthir is a man who acts with an extremely fabulous nature. He requires makeup for various reasons that include to not look sick and because he believes himself to be naturally ugly as sin. Also, when Aelthir is being his fabulous self, his speech may seem philosophical, wise and sometimes even preaching to comrades or strangers. Sometimes he needs to be told he's being over the top and to calm down. If he needs to be diplomatic, Aelthir often holds himself with a majestic grace, without going too far overboard.

During a situation that requires seriousness, Aelthir matches the situation. If a combat situation arises, his fabulosity takes a second seat to being the 'Fabulous Shield that protects his loved ones'. Despite his naturally fabulous nature, Aelthir is very self-sacrificial, as he would sooner be hurt over allowing his 'family' or friends to be hurt and feels he failed if one of them should fall.

When his fabulous nature is desecrated on, such as his hair getting cut by an enemy or his body being drooled on by large tentacles trying to devour him, he will become enraged with his enemy and not hold back any of his (lack of) strength, and can become reckless in his actions.

He is not easy to lie to, and so he trusts his judgment greatly. He overlooks trivial issues such as species, culture, and is just generally accepting of everyone, in part because of the fact he is an elf who worships a human goddess.

He also has a slightly secretive side, especially when it comes to a few certain issues, such as what he originally set out on his pilgrimage for, or that he would sacrifice himself to protect his family. He often writes letters before going out on a mission to get out his thoughts and stresses.

Aelthir is also a very naive elf, as far anything to do with a sexual nature(using that term vaguely) or anything to do with the opposite gender to the degree that Aelthir will literally give a blank stare when something of this nature is discussed.

Aelthir is not all that strong in regards to his intellect, however where he lacks in book smarts, he easily makes up with his oddly charismatic and courageous presence that he carries alongside with his fabulousity and the wisdom he has gained over the years of his pilgrimage and through all of the experiences he has ever been through.

However, with that said; the paladin is terrified of extreme heights and things to do within; this is to the point where the paladin is willing to tranquilize himself if he needs to go on an airship ride, especially after the first one.

He has become more confident since the time off, various events between protecting the weak, and learning about the world to reaffirm his faith. He believes more in the promised victory than ever before and that his friends and he will reach it, at any cost.

Religious Ideals

He feels that every important event that has ever happened to him are all experiences that he can cherish and will prepare him for the next challenge. He also looks toward each new challenge as just another experience to teach him. He believes that with the work of himself, his comrades and the grace of Holy Triana, he will find victory.

“One should always live life to the fullest and believe in the experiences they’ve had will lead them to victory in the darkest of eras.”

Summary of Aelthir's History

Meeting with Master Paladin Palmeiro / Training to be a Paladin of Triana (Ages 15-29)

At the age of fifteen, Aelthir meets a Paladin of Triana and is taken by the man’s presence and how he spoke and how he stood. He’d describe it as something ‘called’ to him on that day, so he secretly went to the human gods place of worship and learned about something about Triana and the great journey by Master Paladin Palmeiro.

After the meeting, Aelthir spent several years training to be a Paladin under the Discipline of Triana, and was officially anointed approximately fourteen years later after his master was killed and right before he was discovered by his family, due to other means.

Crafting/Teaching (Ages Young-Current)

Throughout most of Aelthir's life, he was taught how to be a tailor, as per the family's ways, alongside his normal schooling, and his training to become a Paladin of Triana. While he was studious, he was a bit of a slow learner all around, having some trouble to grasp certain stitching styles and equally certain academic subjects. He did however, excel at anything that required him speaking, charming others with his words and personality.

Aelthir continues tailoring to current day when he can, doing less than he once did, given his present adventuring status. However, he feels some of his newer crafts come out far better than ones he's made in the past. Possibly, because he's made many less than then.

In more recent years, he began learning how to become a blacksmith, despite disliking the dirty aspects of the job, so that he could care for his armour after more difficult encounters. Ultimately, he is not extremely skilled, but he can repair platemail and chainmail as needed.

He's also learned how to cook in recent years too; simply because he misses the simple joys of delicious foods from his youth.

Banishment and Reconciliation (Ages 29-56)

Fourteen years after Aelthir meets his former paladin master, his cover is blown when his fiancee at the time revealed the fact he was a worshiper of Triana on the last day of the Allrevan Grand Festival. When questioned about this, Aelthir made no action to deny his worship, and was proud of it. As Aelthir broke the cardinal rule of the House of the Baequi’via, his family ordered for his banishment from the family and his rites of 'succession' were revoked. His parents chose Syllae as a sort of Hail Mary movement

During the month of Chiarore in the year 3477, after being delivered to Allrevan, Leyandra by his comrades; The current head of the Baequi'via family, Syllae Baequi'via reinstated Aelthir into the family of the Baequi'via, regardless to the family's disapproval of her declaration. Aelthir left the home with his party and continued to follow his path with his 'family'.

Cultist Hunter (Ages 29-Current)

Initial Mission (Age 29)

After a battle against a crazed cultist of Laviege in which Master Palmeiro was defeated, Aelthir was the one who defeated the enemy, with a vital blow to the enemy's chest. As Palmeiro laid on his death bed, the paladin gave Aelthir a job to learn about cultists and rout them, for the good of all Reydala.

Aelthir answered his master's call and took up the mission, regardless to the idea he knew he could eventually be killed during this mission. His goddess would grant him victory under any mission and against any enemy and he would fight to bring about the promised victory. He was soon anointed as a full fledged paladin and decided after his banishment to go find the followers of Lucion to learn.

Tour of Duty: Enforcers (Ages 29-49)

The first major task in relation to the mission that his master had bestowed upon them was to find a group known as the Enforcers and learn about Laviege and how her cultists operated. This required Aelthir to travel for a few years to actually find the Enforcers, as the Libraries of Lucion are not to be found in Leyandra. Upon actually finding the Enforcers, he offered his blade to the cause.

For the remainder of the twenty years of his initial pilgrimage, Aelthir studied the behaviours and methods of the Laviege Cultists, as well as the cultures of the other peoples within the world. This helped develop Aelthir’s general acceptance of all race and species. This is of course, while serving the Enforcers’ cause, not as a member, just as a volunteer.

The Nuln Adventurer’s Guild (Ages 49-Current)

With his time with studying about cultists complete, Aelthir decided to stay in Nuln so he could continue his fight against Cultists of Laviege. During his travels, he met with the group of Fal, Vidar, and Katrin and offered his blade to assist in their job, free of charge. Needless to say, he continued to act fabulous.

After a few jobs with the group(and addition of another member of the group named Alis), Aelthir joined up with the Nuln Adventurer’s Guild and continued traveling along with them, and gathering information about Laviege’s Cultists as he could. He became friends with those he traveled with and eventually informed them of his mission. Throughout their jobs and even during their experiences within Laviege’s Cube, he has joined with new allies and made new friends in both the party he traveled with, and a second group of travelling guild members. He was promoted to the rank of “Hunter” within the guild after his experiences within Laviege’s Cube and was later promoted to "Master" after fighting alongside his party against the serpent Juran and Laviege.

Year Off (Age 60-61)

Aelthir spent time during the year off bringing a new ship to the pirates who helped the party during the Juran Incident, before sailing to Leyandra to visit his sister. During his visit, he did charity work for his local church of Triana. Luckily, the time was quite uneventful.

Returning Home (Age 56)

After Aelthir reunited with Ansr'onna and was informed of his parents’ untimely death, Aelthir found himself forcibly delivered back to Allrevan, Leyandra and to the Baequi'via Estate, where he met up with Syllae. The experience was in no way too great for the paladin, who found himself trolled by his friends and family. He did however make peace with Syllae in the end and left his ritual sword 'Ari'avel' behind with his sister. He was reinstated as a member of the Baequi’via family as well. However, he did also learn the true motives behind his banishment and found out that it wasn't as simple as he once believed.

PARTY RELATIONSHIPS

Image:Icon013.gifFal Indelstan "One of my most trusted friends, he is the epitome of cool, and I know he'll always have my back, so I'm always going to have his.."

Image:Icon013.gifKatrin "One of my most trusted friends, she's been gone for a year or so, and yet almost the moment she returns, she saves my ass. I owe her a lot."

Image:Icon013.gifVidar "One of my most trusted friends, he's a strong fighter, but not a barbarian. Maybe a berserker is more correct..."

Image:Icon013.gifNanashi "A really close friend. I trust her with my life, Lady Hotaru is a person I am glad to have had the honour of meeting and fighting alongside."

Other (NPC) Relationships

Aris and Am’asha Baequi’via “I understand now, I give my sword as a sign of peace.”

-Status: Deceased/Deceased

Aelthir’s father and the man who banished Aelthir from his family all those years ago; Aris Baequi’via is a man of much wealth and power within the elfin community of Allrevan. Aelthir’s banishment is still a topic of much pain to the elfin paladin, but Aelthir holds no anger toward his family. He admits that he has no idea how such a feeling is possible for him. They kept to their ideals, as he kept to his in the most peaceful manner possible. He could not be angry over that. His relationship with his father is a lack thereof as the two did not speak to each other prior to Aris' death.

Am’asha is Aelthir’s mother, and is just a set in the old ways as her husband is. Although, she had some issue with banishing her first born child, she ultimately agreed with her husband and watched her son be banished from his family without doubt or remorse. Aelthir’s relationship with his mother is also a lack thereof as he did not contact her after his banishment until after her death. Aelthir learned that his banishment was not quite as simple as he once made it out to be, and that they banished him so as to protect him and Syllae from their family, whom had all looked down upon him for his choices; whether they agreed or not to them.


Syllae Baequi’via: “I’ll return someday, little sister.”

-Status: Alive

Syllae is the younger sister to Aelthir and one of the people that the elfin paladin cares about the most. It is no secret to say that the paladin would gladly give up his life to protect her. He is also bound by the promise to return to Allrevan one day to see his sister at least one last time(even though he was there a few years prior to present day). He thinks about his sister fairly often and he worries about her. His relationship with her is one of a Knight Templar Big Brother to a younger sister; he is extremely protective of her and loves her very much. She loves him greatly as well, but she treats him in more of a harsh way for multiple reasons as shown when he did return to her. She is the present head of the Baequi'via Family. Syllae has a group of contacts throughout Reydala known as 'Sylthi' or "Fairie's Wings" which basically inform Syllae on various matters of even more varying levels of importance to the woman(Such as her brother's whereabouts), and can run errands for the Baequi'via family in their name. Syllae is not very cultured when it comes to cultures outside of Leyandra, nor is she familiar with other species. She held a very skewed image of her brother which was quickly broken and changed throughout Aelthir’s last visit to Leyandra.

Ansr'onna Gyssebrar: “Lady Onna, I leave my sister in your capable hands.”

-Status: Alive

The daughter to Ansr'esti Gyssebrar and her husband 'Captain Gyssebrar'; Ansr'onna lived on the boat Aelthir traveled to Nuln on, which belonged to her parents. She is the best friend to Syllae Baequi'via and the first of Syllae's 'Sylthi'(Fairie's Wings). She contacted Aelthir after Aris and Am'asha's death in place of Syllae and had the job posted in the Nuln Adventurer's Guild Hall at Crossamar for Aelthir's comrades to locate. She and Aelthir have a friendly relationship. She calls him "Aelthiria", because when they traveled together(she was fifteen) she thought that Aelthir was actually a woman for most of the trip. She ultimately was responsible for the group ‘escorting’ Aelthir back to Allrevan, four years prior.

Master Paladin Palmeiro: "I found my path, thanks to your guidance."

-Status: Deceased

The Master Paladin Palmeiro is the paladin who (albeit unintentionally) introduced Aelthir to the teachings of Triana which ultimately led to the elfin man to become a paladin under her service. He taught Aelthir all the skills he needed to know to be a good defender as well as the theology behind his goddess. He is also the man who had Aelthir swear to be an enemy to Laviege’s cultists, and sent him onto his pilgrimage where he loaned his sword to the Enforcers for the better part of twenty years. Aelthir delivered the last rites to a dying Palmeiro before he left on his pilgrimage. His relationship with his master was one of pure undying respect.
