BACKGROUND
_______________
Lainadan's father was the Shoal elf Raelin, who regularly visited Ptolus by boat to sell his business: home-crafted bows, hunting trinkets and anything related to the wild. It was in Ptolus that he met Caitlin, a shy girl living on minimum wage by housekeeping for wealthy residents in Oldtown. During each visit, Raelin lodged with Caitlin in her rented ramshackle room. And so Lainadan was born to a human mother, 25 years ago.
During his early childhood, Lainadan ventured with his father into the wild, learning the ways of life and survival. He only saw his mother during Raelin's visits to Ptolus. When Lainadan was 14, he fell ill and was confined to bed for weeks. So Raelin took off without his son - and it was the final time they would meet: the heaviest storm since decades ravaged both ships and docks alike, sinking and drowning many. Raelin's ship was among those which went under.
A destitute half-elf was the centre of other kids' pestering, and one thing Lainadan hadn't learnt from his father was fighting. Lainadan fled the city at regular intervals to hunt for food, and to escape from the boisterous and malign city. During these trips, his occasional friendly contacts with other outsiders enabled him to learn much in the ways of combat and nature.
Eventually, some Caitlin's employers were in need of a gardener, and she encouraged her son to fill in the slot. It paid better than what his excursions brought home, and money was always needed. At the age of 21, Caitlin fell victim to one of Ptolus's numerous criminal gangs - she paid with her life for resisting to give her baggage to the thugs.
Lainadan has lived these final lonesome years in a monotone drag, with little enthusiasm. Perhaps it just takes a spark to ignite his former fierce vivacity and lust for adventure...
