His body is frail but hides both great strength and dexterity, making him light on his feet and powerful in one on one combat.
Personality: Archiva is gentle and kind but often withdraws himself from people due to the nature of his past. Although he is a man of few words, when he speaks be careful to listen, for he may have knowledge that might keep you alive.
Background/Biography: Archiva was raised in a small Elven village hidden away near a range of mountains within the Valarìn Forest. His birth parents had disappeared in the first Cataclysm and had been raised by family friends nearby. He had grown to be very close with the family's first son Gatis, and they became like brothers. Then, when Archiva came into adulthood, a horrific event happened. While performing his Rite of Passage Archiva discovered plans for a group of pillaging Barbarians to invade and destroy his village. On his way to warn them he was captured and knocked unconscious, upon waking he found himself tied to the back of a horse and being drub through the Daknes Desert. Once free he wandered until he found an oasis and had spent several days there until he was picked up by a band of Sand Raiders, bandits that roam the Daknes Desert, and entered Archiva into slavery. He spent three years as a slave, being sold off from one person to the next until he was sold to a kind chieftain of a desert village and continued to live there for another year until departing his way back to his home, only to find it decimated. Now he is seeking knowledge to the destruction of his village, little does he realize the answers might be closer than he thinks.
