PHYSIOLOGY:
Build: Lean, not heavily muscled but not quite stick insect
Hair: Golden, a nice shade of blonde verging towards brown rather than a paler shade.
Eyes: Blue
Skin: Peach with a golden hue
Identifying Marks: He takes great care to preserve his naturally occurring Elven looks meaning that he has no scars or tattoos as he would consider these to be impurities upon his body, but with the exception of two ear piercings, one on each ear lobe.
Appearance: A young looking elf with Blondish Shoulder height hair left to one side. His ears awkwardly and clearly stick out from his hair showing his piercings with one on each ear, He has a rather feminine face as most elves do and he has been mistaken more than once for a woman, much to his frustration. And he is never seen without a dashingly amazing set of clothing. He has very little muscle mass as he prefers speed over brute strength, giving him a underfed slender frame.
Clothing: His clothing often changes but purple tends to stay a main theme
Weaponry: Before the exodus, Leo was in
possession of a beautifully crafted longsword "Elven Dominance". It was a replica curved sword in the style of ancient elven weaponry. He was known to have practiced several dueling techniques with it. Sadly in the great confusion of the exodus, it was lost and presumably destroyed.
Prized Possessions: Similar to his blade, Leo had a grand crown created in for his new
position as King roughly 100 years ago. It was a small banded crown worn on the forehead with a large enchanted gem in-laid into the metalwork. The metal involved in crown was mithril, due to it being the only metal strong and lightweight enough to forge a crown seemingly so flimsy. While the gem was rumored to originate from a 2nd age sorcerer-enchanter, who enchanted the gem to resist physical damage.
Hygiene: Leo is known for taking long measures in keeping his personal
hygiene, for to be dirty is a sign of weakness in his eyes. Dirt symbolizes disease and famine, it's generally not good to be associated with them.

BACKSTORY:
Time stops for no man it seems, how long had it been? Whatever the answer, it was too long.
The old houses fallen, the old cities had turned to dust upon the wind. It was time to return what had been lost to its rightful ruler...

The political landscape had shifted dramatically since he had left these lands... not to mention the actual terrain. It had been many years since the battle which put Jarl Draco Lonmar upon the throne of Altera, the battle in which Leo had proven his bravery by leading a charge upon the last of the enemy forces despite having taken numerous casualties. It was this charge which ultimately won the battle for the Lonmarian forces.
It was after this battle Leo left these lands, disillusioned with the king he had spent so long trying to put on the throne. Alas all this did not matter anymore, For Draco Lonmar was surely rotting in the ground by now, his bones gathering dust in some royal tomb.
Leorthor had been rewarded with only a royal pardon for his years of service and bravery, being left with nothing to show for the time he had devoted to the cause. Sure many who remember those times would call Leo a traitor, Bah! I defy them not to do the same in his position.
Before his self imposed exile he had betrayed the great house Lonmar by selling battle plans to the Head of House Hawklight in exchange for a lordship and a seat upon the ruling council of Altera.
Call him what they will, murderer, madman, traitor. It did not matter now, the beauty of an elven lifespan I suppose...

Before leaving with his personal retinue of guards, he left his large estate and titles to his eldest bastard son "Dagorien Ararodwen". Not the best solution but the most practical. To the best of Leo's knowledge his son was now missing, for now one has heard from him in an age. However in an interesting development he found something he did not expect, an elven man who claims to be of the Ararodwen bloodline. This "boy" looked little like his supposed Grandfather, with pale hair and skin and calling his self a "Silver Elf". Surely no true Ararodwen would debased themselves and refer to themselves as anything lower than a pure breed "High elf".
Leorthor had decided that this was the most pressing issue, he must secure the bloodline and his legacy. For he may still be biologically young due to his elven nature, this surely would not last and there must be a grand legacy which befits such a noble king.

But now, now was not such time for idle fretting, now was the time for action. He would ride into the land with what men loyal to his cause at his side and he would in one way or another restore the glory of the past and bring about a new golden age for all elvenkind. If he had been king of the elves once, he could surely do it again...








Previously on Hollowworld:
As Leo at the moment is the currently the highest ranking High elf in Altera, and as the High Elves have always ruled over the lower elven races, Leo is by right the rightful heir to the kingship over the elves.
A royal announcement to all noble and honorable subjects:
A joy filled day dawns for all elves of the land, their beloved king returns to bring purity and prosperity to all under his rule. After being away for some time, King Leo hereby decrees that any true and just elf will support his spiritual liege in regaining his lands and titles from the impostors who may hold them.
All hail King Leorthor, glory to the elves!

This will surely cause an Elven Civil War. The Wood elves of Tauredal will dislike this and the many dark elves of Altera will not agree either.

I really wouldn't care about this in roleplay, because I dislike fighting nowadays and my new character has no fighting abilities. Also, Jagster, 27 elven years is around 9 human years, so this is a major failure.

You might want to check up on the elven lore for the server there, Camiaxe
Elves don't live as long as in most fantasy settings so it's more like 17/18.
Now please take your fail with you.

Last time I checked, the elves live upto 300 years in Altera.

If we borrow a bit of Tolkien Elven lore and we use that as a basis for Elven anatomy, as this is what most fantasy elves are based on:

"Their minds develop more quickly than their bodies; by their first year, they can speak, walk and even dance, and their quicker onset of mental maturity makes young Elves seem, to Men, older than they really are. Physical puberty comes in around their fiftieth to one hundredth year (by age fifty they reach their adult height), and by their first hundred years of life, all Elves are fully grown.
Elven bodies eventually stop aging physically, while human bodies do not."

Bearing in mind that Tolkien Elves are immortal and that Alteran Elves have a lifespan of about 300, we can give or take a few decades on the physical ageing process. By that we can probably assume that Alteran Elves reach adulthood around age 30.
But this is all guess work on my part.

Just because elves live up to 300 years doesnt mean the ratios are consistant. If an elf is 3 years old, it doesn't mean they are going to look like a 1 year old human. Also, the extended life could become greater as they they get older. So at 3 years old an elf could look like a 2 1/2 old human. At 10 an elf could look like an 8 year old human. At 20 an elf could look like a 16 year old human. 30 year old elf could look like a 23 year old human........ You get the idea...

There's still Elves in Tauredal that aren't just Speed?Well, they don't have strategizers....(Tant), non-murderous diplomats...(Blarg)...Ummm, what is there other than murderous diplomats that are being put to death and one Alex?
