About Dharius
Dharius is a young Wood Elf of the Dreadwood, one of the many quiet guardians who patrol the forest's borders and game trails. Though still early in his training as a ranger, he has already earned a reputation for his keen eye, steady bow, and fearless sword arm when defending the forest against orcs, goblins, and other raiders.
Unlike many of his kin, Dharius believes that the growing dangers beyond the trees cannot be ignored. The old paths between the forests, hills, and kingdoms are becoming less safe each season, and the spread of monstrous tribes threatens elf and human alike. With the blessing of his elders, he has left the Dreadwood to learn more of the lands of Keoland and its neighbors, hunting evil where he finds it while proving himself worthy of the title of Ranger.
Though reserved among strangers, Dharius judges others by their deeds rather than their race, offering respect to those who honor the balance of nature and protect the innocent.
