    Description/Image:

Before you stands a young elf, not quite full-grown, perhaps around fifteen years of age or so. He stands at around 3 feet and four inches, and looks like he's got a bit more growing to do before he's done. His hair is a dark brown, with some reddish highlights when the sun strikes it just right. It's mid-length, going just past his shoulders in the back with a pair of thin braids on either side of his face, before his ears. His eyes are blue, with just the barest hint of green, depending on his mood. The bones in his face are finely defined, almost appearing fragile, but with a hidden inner strength which shows through from time to time. His body is slim, and lithe, almost like a jungle creature himself.

He wears very little in the way of clothing: A couple of leaves in his hair, a necklace with a feather and a colorful stone around his neck, a pair of shorts covering his hips, and a small pair of sandals covering his four-toed feet, to protect them from stones and sticks. His skin is dark, bronzed by many hours of exposure to the sun and to the elements.




    Background:

Tiras was born to Reken and Talah, both hunters in the Cat Elf tribe. He learned the basics of tracking and hunting, and all that was in the cat elf way of life, over the first thirteen years of his life. He showed a special affinity for stalking and keeping hidden in the jungles, and could all but blend in with the surrounding foilage after a moment or two. When he was fourteen, his parents, while out hunting, ran across a sword-foot who had been driven mad from an old injury. Talah was killed by the sword-foot, and Reken was able to kill it, but his wounds were too great, and he was only barely able to make it back to the tribe to tell them before he expired of his own wounds, leaving Tiras alone, other than the other members of his tribe. Tiras is a brash youth, and quite adventurous. He is good in the jungles, able to keep silent there, but he more than makes up for it through his other exploits.
