THE APPEARANCE
Eli is a handsome young man with raven colored hair and grey-blue eyes, above which loom a pair of thick, but nicely shaped brows. With a slim, well muscled body, Eli is rather tall and stands well over six feet. Always dressed in good quality clothes, Eli tends to wear mostly black. He keeps his hair short and tends to have sideburns with a nice, trimmed stubble and goatee.
THE PERSONALITY
Eli is a charming young man with a certain taste for adventure. He loves to eat, drink and laugh, trying to make the most out of life. He has a fair sense of humor, but knows when to take things seriously.
He is never quick to anger and just lets it build up inside. He prefers to stay silent, rather than let someone get the best of him. Eli isn't the type to hold grudges against people, though he does have a certain sense of pride about him. He's very protective, especially of Felicia,the lovely blind princess who has always been his best friend.
THE HISTORY
BIRTH REALM: Mourinor
BIRTH KINGDOM: Van'Ostgar
Eli was the second born son of Lord and Lady Roswell. For the first few years of his life, the family lived in their family estate. As boys, Cailan and Eli Roswell got into their fair share of trouble, surely causing a number of their maids and their mother a decent amount of grief. Their nan always insisted that they were turning her hair grey, a fact that the boys couldn't be too sure of since her hair was always covered.
When Eli was eight years old, his mother gave birth to a beautiful little girl, known as Katherine. Mother and child were weakened from the birth though and just a week later, Lady Roswell passed, followed by baby Katherine a few nights later. The family was devastated by the lost and it was hard to get through to Eli, who just didn't understand that his mother and sister were not coming back.
Eli was always dreaming of his mother. She would tell him that he was alright and that she was taking good care of passing. It hurt his father when ever he would speak of these dreams, so over time, Eli stopped talking about it. Eventually, the dreams stopped.
When Eli was ten years old, Lord Roswell was made hand of the king, after the previous hand's unfortunate demise. Francis had always been good friends with Van'Ostgar's king, though he had not seen his friend in years because of their duties. Feeling that it would be a good change for his boys, Francis moved them to the capital, leaving behind a trusted adviser to watch over the estate and their lands. Cailan and Eli would continue their studies and training there and become knights of Van'Ostgar, though Cailan would eventually be sent back to the estate to act as Lord in his father's stead.
Upon arrival in the capital, Eli had difficulty fitting in with the other children, even the other nobles. Despite their age difference though, Eli became good friends with the king's nearly five year old daughter/ She was accepting of him and, before long, the two were inseparable. Eli would sneak away from his lessons just to visit Felicia. As ridiculous as it was, Eli had a crush on the young girl.
When Eli was eleven years old, he almost lost Felicia and always felt that the incident was his fault. He could have gotten her away; he should have been the one to get hurt. He tried to fight the man, but an eleven year old boy with a wooden training sword wasn't exactly a match for a fully grown arcanist. Because he could not protect her, Felicia nearly died. Though she survived, she never recovered completely and lost her sight, a knowledge that has weighed on Eli ever since.
After the incident, he became Felicia's eyes, even after she discovered her power, a secret that he wasn't supposed to know about. They knew everything about each other.
As they grew older, Eli continued his training, becoming a squire before he himself was knighted after a fierce victory in battle. Though he was proud of his accomplishment, he couldn't wait to return home to the capital, where he could once again be with Felicia. He had been nineteen years old at the time.
Since then, duty has called him away from his best friend a number of times, but he always goes back to her. He hides his feelings for her, knowing that she deserves someone better than him, someone who could protect her.
