About Midnight Crescent

Bulletized Backstory:

Midnight Cresent, like the Ilverani he is decended from, hides his true name (Bjorden Selendrian) from all but his closest and most trusted friends. (Empty mask Drawback)

He is an half of from an Ilverani Twilight speaker father and an Ulfen human mother.

Her was raised mostly by his mother but his father visited as often as he could without it being found out that he'd fatherd a child with a human.

His father taught Midnight Ilverani ways and the lore of his people and the importance of caring for the other races.

Midnight also learned the ways of the Ulfen, though he yearned to join his father. (Weapon training trait)

When he grew older he left to avoid shaming his father. Though he still writes to this mother who shares letters with his father when he visits.

When he left he went with Ulfen traders south as they traded down the coast. When they reached Magnimar and were to begin their way back to the lands of the north, Midnight left them.

He worked in Magnimar for a few years taking odd jobs, singing, or teaching, or simply working as a guard mostly.

While in Magnimar he met his wife Sundra. She was a half elf who was a part of a caravan traveling Varisia.

Always curious Sundra was intrigued by Midnight's odd ways and wanted to know more. He was happy to teach her of elven traditions. They fell in love and were married.

For a few years they traveled around Varisia with Sundra's caravan. During that time Midnight continued sharing and teaching of Findeladlara and Elven ways. He also served as a healer for the caravan.

After a while Sundra grew restless and wanted to try something new. Since Midnight was always talking about the superiority of Elven ways she got the idea to go and visit the Elven homeland of Kyonin. Midnight thought this was a great idea and so the pair left thier normal caravan and hound up with a caravan headed over the Mindspin mountains to Nimathas where the expected to charter a boat to sail across Lake Encarthan to Kyonin.

The trek across the mountains was more difficult than expected. They started in the spring and planned to be to begin the voyage across Lake Encathan by midsummer. As it was the didn't get through the mountains until late summer early fall. So when they reached Nimathas they determined it would be wise to winter there and set sail in the spring.

They were staying in Phaendar when the invasion began. Sundra was exploring nearby immediately before the warning cry went up. She was cut down by the Ironfang legion as a part of their advance. Midnight was with in the village when the alarm was raised. He fled with the rest of the villagers, but went to search for Sundra when he couldn't finder her. He later found her mutilated body.

He has sence sworn to protect the people of Phaendar and to exact revenge on the Hobgoblins that murdered his wife.
