Background:
Cel was born to parents who were worriers. They weren’t necessarily afraid of anything specific, just always concerned about the “what if” side of life. This normally annoying, but not malignant, trait would have been fine if it weren’t for the fact that their child manifested the bloodline descendant from the air djinn. Worrier plus some of the skittish nature of Sylphs is not a good combination.
Cel is twitchy and nervous at all times. His hair is messy, and clothes unkempt. He is often startled by the breeze that tends to follow most Sylph around, which of course creates the fear emotional response that magnifies the breeze, which startles him further…it’s a vicious cycle. One that he still falls for to this day.
It isn’t completely clear why he began to manifest ability to control the air a little more than most Sylph, but it wouldn’t be a stretch to assume it was an innate manifestation that was significantly exacerbated by the fear response. He did end up learning to control the use of the power, but counter to what one might expect, accidentally discovering he has this power didn’t embolden him or give him more confidence to handle the things that cause him fear. An observer would think that he was completely unaffected by gaining something that takes him from the mundane to the special.
The funny part about his nervousness is that he still picked up one of the other major traits of a Sylph: curiosity. It ultimately ends up being that he is effectively the humanoid embodiment of a house cat. Endlessly curious, investigating something he doesn’t know only to be startled by the thing he’s investigating. When he was younger, and the control of air was newer this often resulted in him getting scared by someone he was spying on coughing and Cel reflexively bowling the person over with a blast of air. Frequently, the person didn’t even know they were being observed, so being blown over out of nowhere created extensive confusion although it was never more than minor bumps and bruises.
As he’s gone through life and gained more control over his abilities he spent large amounts of time practicing increasing the distance he could be when utilizing air. He is still curious, and that has led him to often team up with adventurers, but he prefers to keep far back from the action and investigate after the dust settles. He’s working on being able to hear things from far away, but that’s a little harder. Once he can master this, maybe he’ll become less skittish. Spying from afar, casting from afar, sounds like a perfect set-up for Cel…but those who know him expect that even these abilities won’t change his frightened nature.
