Name: Evan Darkstride
Age: 28
Birthday: Spring 17
Race: Elf
Profession: Merchant, hunter



Physical Description: Standing at 6'1", Evan doesn't sound impressive. But his body has been trained through constant hardships and trials. The hunts that Evan has gone on have given him the body type of a warrior, with muscles that stand out just enough to be noticable. Evans hair is a spectacle worth noticing, for the hair parts up, left and right at first to give it the appearance of a crown. While the rest of his hair simply falls to his shoulders. His eyes catch a fair amount of attention, due to the fact that they are burnt yellow. having yellow eyes has always marked Evan as a demon and has therefore shunned him from most aspects of normal society. This genetic rarity has been passed down through his family, skipping every few generations. Evan's normal attire consists of a black and white trench coat with white cuffs and a grey long-sleeved shirt, contrasting greatly with his blood red pants and dark blue boots.

His charming personality has gotten him out of more problems than he can count. Along with his charming persona, Evan is a master of spinning the truth to the way he wants it, particularly when he is in a tight spot. Whenever confronted with an impossible situation, he always attempts to talk his way around the fight. That isn't to say that he woudn't fight if he had to, because he loves a good battle.

History: As a young boy in the village of Arentor, Evan was forever at war with others, never stopping to play around with friends. One day at the age of ten, his rage got so uncontrolable that his family decided to send him to a warrior monk temple, where he was kept isolated from the outside world for ten years. Inside the stone walls of the temple, Evan learned peace and serenity while being rigorously trained in the ways of honorable combat. Years passed and he eventually became a master of combat and a student of great minds. At the age of twenty he was given a ceremony in which he was allowed to replace his last name, lorien, with a name of his choice. Having spent his training isolated from all other people, he chose the name Darkstride. His days of isolation over, Evan set out towards the south, where he found a small city that majored in trade routes. Settling in to a small house, he began to create friendships with important traders and merchants. As the months passed, Evan began to learn the quiet nuances of the merchandise world. After two years of apprenticeship under a human trader, he finally had enough knowledge to traffic in legal products on his own. Evan left the trader and used his friendships with other traders to establish trade routes, his first experience with trading included herbs and fruit. Then he established a weapons market, where he has spent his time until one of his major clients, Domovoi Vane, requested a shipment of rare herbs. Interested in why his client needed these herbs, Evan took the shipment himself to Kamille village, where he currently resides in a temporary house created by the villagers.



Friendship: easy Evan is a very outgoing person. Though he makes a lot of business contacts, he seldom has more than two friends at a time, since business usually gets in the way. Once he makes a friend, however, he tries hard to keep them.
Romance: Moderately difficult Having been trained by chaste warrior monks, Evan doesn't give romance any thought normally. This doesn't rule out the possibility of a love relationship, it just makes it more difficult to achieve. Don't worry ladies, it can be done.
