--------------------
Background
--------------------
Blue (a nickname he uses to keep his own name private) is used to spending a lot of time alone and controlling the interaction he has with other humanoids. He isn't anti-social by any means, but he is rather sensitive to insult and offense on account of his difficult childhood. His extremely dark skin and ability to see in the dark suggest that his elven parent was either a drow or dusk elf, but since he didn't know his parents, he has no way to confirm it. He spent much of his childhood near Nybor learning to use the shadow of the forest to his advantage as a hunter and trapper and feels he knows the environs around Sandpoint fairly well. He tends toward false bravado to overcompensate his prickly nature.
Blue has been interacting with the townsfolk of Sandpoint for some time and has earned the deep trust of the local stablekeeper, Hosk, (his campaign trait) who has given him Nu - a short form for the local term for deep black-coated horses. He often comes to town to sell his wares and trade for supplies to pursue his hobbies. Like many elves, he has a knack for magic and will eventually add spellcasting levels and pursue the Arcane Archer prestige class.
What does Blue bring to a party? In addition to feeling protective of these environs, he is a very talented tracker, he knows several tricks for dealing with the menace of undead (his favored enemy), his ranged attacks can soften up the enemy before the melee specialists engage (and later he'll add precise shot, so he can keep on firing), and once he gets attached to people, he will risk his life to protect them, too.
