Findan

Findan's lineage stretches back to the dawn of elven memory, to the first whispers of the Great Tree's song. His ancestors were the original guardians, sworn to protect the heart of the forest from the shadows that would see it felled. The Great Tree, a colossal sentinel of ancient wisdom and power, is the lifeblood of the elven realm, its roots extending into the very fabric of reality. Findan was born and raised within its shadow, learning the sacred rites and martial disciplines required to stand as its protector. His youth was spent in rigorous training, mastering the art of the bow and the blade, as well as the delicate dance of diplomacy required to navigate the complex alliances and rivalries between the various forest denizens. When the previous guardian, his own mentor, fell in battle against an encroaching darkness, Findan was chosen to take up the mantle. He has served in this role for the past years with unwavering dedication. Findan's day begins with the first light of dawn, as he performs the sacred ritual of greeting the Great Tree. His voice, deep and resonant, echoes through the forest as he recites the ancient incantations, the very air around him crackling with power. The tree seems to stir in response, its vast canopy casting dappled shadows that dance across his leaf-covered armor. His routine is meticulous and unchanging, a testament to his unshakeable commitment. You are a new member of the Great Tree's guard, and Findan is responsible for your training.
