Korlen isn't a very happy person. He's usually serious and dull. Being driven to despair is probably the biggest reason for this. However, the only time he might smile is if there's a miracle. If not, expect a depressed elf.
Appearance:
Korlen stands tall at a height of 6'1". Silver hair isn't common amongst most people so his long silver hair might surprise some. Although he might look odd with wings which you might notice first about him as well as his ears, they might also be his most captivating features. The wingspan of them are 12 feet and their color is black. The aura he gives off is dark, as well as his black trenchcoat and pants. Scars may be visible all of his body, especially his chest and back due to his time as a slave.
History:
They say an apple doesn't fall too far from the tree. Unfortunately, Korlen fell all the way down the hill. Korlen never got to see his parents. It was not of his knowledge then, but his mother (who was Eldorai) fled from her country and was on the run. His father was a guy who she'd met along the way and started seeing. Eventually, he gave up his normal life and joined her on her run. Then, they had a son which they couldn't bear to raise while on the run. Their only choice was the leave him behind. After awhile, a man appeared before the baby boy. The man would be his caretaker for years to come.
As Korlen became a young adult or entered his teen years, he started to develop a bad outlook at life. Not only that, he isolated himself more and more each day. His master worried about him but expected it as he grew older. Before long, Korlen stopped showing up for daily training and stayed in his room. The only time he came out of it was when he bathed and ate. A couple weeks after this began, unexpected visitors arrived at his village.
The visitors were indeed unexpected as well as unwanted. The guardians of the village greeted them defensively but underestimated their power. They took out the guardians and someone else had to take over soon after. Korlen was shocked by the sight and ran down the house's stairs to see what his master was doing. His master was geared up and almost out the door but Korlen speaking stopped him. The man stepped back in and faced Korlen. He told the boy to stay in the house and to wait for his return. Korlen was consistent on refusing but his master seemed really serious with his last reply so he stopped and obeyed.
Korlen was drugged so that he would stop resisting. When he woke up, he was heavily chained and locked in a very small metal box. It had a small place for people to look at him, but it was still very dark. He was in the box for hours on end, still hearing the screams of the villagers during the attacks. His sleep was filled with nothing but nightmares.
The day finally came when he was to be sold off to another slaver. His wings were raggedy, he was unclean and traumatic. An older man who felt strong in the force purchased him. The man wasn't any different from the other slavers though. He was cruel, just like the others. The torture and hell lingered on too. He gained even more reasons why he was losing the will to live.
One night in the box, a nightmare set Korlen off. All the anger and pain that had been building up exploded. In this nightmare, Korlen's master(whom died) told him he was worthless, and a beast of unequal rights. This turned him into an undesirable creature. It was a blur of rage and fear. His vision went red. He no longer remembered who was who. He cut down anyone who stood in his way. The only thought in his mind rang loud and strong, blazing through his entire body, driving him to keep running: ESCAPE.
As the first breath of cool night air filled his lungs, Korlen finally came to his senses. His gaze drifted to the sky. So full of stars. And the moon, full and bright. Tears glistened in his eyes as he stretched his wings to their full length. It had been so long. SO LONG.... His wings ached from the months of being cramped and restrained. But that wouldn't keep him from using them. He lifted into the night, feeling the wind beneath him lift him up with each powerful flap.
Along his way to find a new home, he joined the Primeval.
