Description

Ah, the hair. The perfect, waist-length river of bronze, flowing down his back like molten metal, each strand soft, supple and strong... until Lilith cut it. Ouch. Lysander's been regrowing his hair; other than that, his most notable feature is the proud, arrogant cast of his face; born a nobleman, he has the habit of looking on the world with general disdain. His eyes are a clear hazel, like mossy tree trunks or light filtering through the murky branches of elvish forests. Full lips and high cheekbones add a slight femininity to his overall appearance, softening the harsh contours made by his aquiline nose and condescending brow. If you get him in the right light, though, and look closely at his left cheek, one may see the barest trace of a cross-shaped scar on his cheek (the result of a mages' duel against Lilith, wherein he lost). As a mage, his clothing of choice are the robes of the profession, preferably billowy and dramatic, made with fine cloth to lend a lofty air of luxury to his 6'0" frame.

History

He's an elvish aristocrat and quite proud of it. Actually, his whole family is, and they can all hang around to flaunt it, seeing as not very many have croaked yet, being immortal (elves fancy that they are, despite skepticism from other races. I say that they are, too). Lysander grew up in an ideal, close-knit environment not lacking in comfort or natural beauty-- though a portion of his youth was spent in the fostercare of the Unorian family. When an elf is rich, they doesn't go about building hulking McMansions so much as they create beautiful courtyards that provide shelter but let in the untamed world, reveling in its glory. His magics are command over air (not to be confused with wind), fire and earth. His decision to go join the elvish front as a battle-mage was fueled a bit by an adventurous desire to see what the other half of life looks like, though his disdainful personality would hardly hint as much. Later, he and Foertis ended up traveling together with Signum, which led to a new use for his powers in the two healers' desire to bring aide.
