Backround:
Visibly a haunted man, Learln arrived in Korvosa about a month back, presenting himself as a scholar, traveling the coast towns of Golarion in search of lore about sea dragons and elven connections to the them.
Yet soon afterwards his studies ground to an halt when a man introducing himself as Gaedren offered him "a way to rid himself of the ghosts of the past and find enlightenment", selling him a big vial filled with a clear substance which he was meant to take before going to sleep.
Needless to say that this was a bad idea, as the clear overdose send him to the brink of death and into a deep, shivering coma from which he awoke only recently.
Yet his near death had also another effect, when the Pharasmian cleric's care yanked his mind back the ghosts that haunted his dreams followed in a way. Ever since he is haunted by strange happenings and found to have powers which don't seem to be a late manifestation of his sorcerous heritage but rather come from the outside. The cleric, a young acolyte called
Tarwas, is sure that Learln was chosen by Pharasma, as his survival borders to a miracle.
Be that as it may, for now Learln is not amused with being haunted literally in addition to figuratively and determined to find this "Gaedren" and make him pay.
Further Information (not widely known):
-Learln grew up as the son of two powerful elven sorcerers in a small coastal community.
-While he has some magical talent he was never able to sling spells as his parents did,
becoming a scholar and Lorekeeper
-When he was 62 the village was destroyed by a Great Wyrm Sea Dragon, his parents and many villagers killed.
- For the last 74 years he has wandered the coasttowns of Golarion, following his profession of Lorekeeper, but also searching for an explanation why a "good" Sea Dragon would attack his hometown, haunted by this question for most of his life.
- He also already tried one or the other drug to rid himself of the ghosts of the past
Information he doesn't know or realise himself:
-the dragon didn't "attack the village", he went directly after his parents. All the other dead were simply collateral damage, most actually killed by his parents spells.
-his parents were actually enslaved by an ancient kraken from the plane of water who empowered them with the essence of his marid servants in exchange for servitude.
-the dragon attacked because they were trying to summon their master to Golarion
Personality:
Learln is a very brooding man, still haunted by the past, yet at times also very vivid and impulsive.
While he usually keeps himself composed and polite, he does not always think things through, leading to his various run ins with drugs and also his decision to go after Gaedren himself.
*Note* He is neither Chaotic Stupid nor Chaotic A$!#!&*. As many chaotic neutral characters fall into one of those categories I just felt that I have to point that out.
Description:
Learln is mostly a typical young elf, although the life with the ocean gave his family very pallid skin with slight blue hue and eyes the color of a clear ocean.
Lately he also hasn't completely recovered from his overdose, a sick paleness shifts his skin slightly to an unhealthy green.
