Raised by his father, Altin seems a little displaced from emotions when he first meets people. While he keeps to himself when he is uncomfortable, he's quite the chatterbug if you hit on a subject he's familiar with and enjoys. In any situation, he can be relied on to remain calm and do all he can to rectify the issue. He's a bit of a hot-head if agitated right, and as a result, can go berserk, removing his ability to remain cool in a tense situation. He will always try to protect those he finds close to him, with his own life if necessary. He's rather oblivious most of the time, but he wears his feelings on his sleeves.
History: Altin was raised in a little village founded on the edge of the territory between the humans and elves and as a result was not raised with hatred towards them. He lived with his father on his homestead farm, without much of a care in the world. Sure, sometimes his father would get drunk in town making Altin have to bring him home, but overall, his father seemed determined to raise him right and true. Shortly after he turned 16, his father left, leaving the farm and house to Altin. No one has heard or seen from him since then. Even now, Altin remains hopeful that either his father will return, or he will find his father and bring him home by his own means.
