Vafrandir Saevel is a male elf from Hammerhearth of Finnemar in Ulthua. His eyes are sky blue, his skin is pale nordic, and his hair is russet brown, with luxuriant curls and with a healthy growth.

Personal Life

He was raised by both parents, the eldest of two siblings, with a brother who is 2 years younger. However, they treat Vafrandir with hearty dislike, and while willing to speak, they will do nothing more than provide lodging for the space of a night no more often than once in six months. His father was a rat catcher (+1 saving throw vs. poison). His birthday is November 25, 1633 (making him 16 years old at the beginning of the campaign).

Vafrandir was baptized Lutheran by Father Arven in Treborg.

Other

Elves are naturally effective when using long and short swords, so that they receive a +1 to hit with these weapons. Likewise, elves receive a +1 to hit bonus when using any kind of bow. Elves do not receive this bonus when using a two-handed, bastard or broad sword, nor when using a crossbow. Elves are skilled assassins, clerics, fighters, mages, rangers and thieves. Their presence of mind permits a +1 saving throw against charm spells for every 3½ points of intelligence (+3 for Vafrandir). An elf with an intelligence of 15 would have a +4 saving throw. Elves also possess infravision, being able to see in the dark with relative clarity. Because of their experience moving through the outdoors, non-player character elves possess the stealth ability. Contrary to popular belief, elves do not possess any special abilities to identify secret or concealed doors.

Vafrandir has a natural ability to master and control riding horses, donkeys and mules, regardless of class or training (horse handling I). A touch of luck has marginally increased the character's coin. He starts with one less weapon proficiency than usual. He is overly cautious when it comes to combat, and must succeed at a wisdom check, which may be attempted each round, before entering melee. He suffers from susceptibility to colds. Exposure of any kind to rain or snow in the outdoors will cause Vafrandir to experience cold symptoms. He gains a +2 modifier to saves against frostbite. He is not subject to attacks of opportunity when moving at a stride of 2. He is able to perform handwalking, round offs and side aerials. Vafrandir's misfire cannot result in "friendly fire" if the accidental target is within 20 feet. He has a deep, compelling voice, and his body is firm and toned. Should Vafrandir seek employment, or come into the service of any person, he will receive 30% more than usual compensation.
