PHYSICAL APPEARANCE

Art: Cole Solvi

Cole has a rather slender frame. His muscles are toned well by hard labor and fighting, but they do not add any real bulk to his narrow body. Because of his mixed heritage, Cole does not have skin as dark as his mother's drow kin. A silvery, light grey hue covers him from head to toe. What he did inherit solely from his mother was the snow white hair and blood red eyes typical of the dark elves.

Clothing is very simple linen and leathers that can be afforded by relatively poor people. His armor is little better, light boiled leathers good for relatively minor protection. The good thing about leather armor is that it allowed him to work quickly and quietly. A small ruby pendent kept on a very simple black cord around his neck is the only thing of note that Cole wears. It belonged to his mother and was the only gift she really gave to him.


PERSONALITY

What kind of attitude would you expect from someone raised among a vulgar band of thieves, murders, and other general shitty people? Any sign of weakness would be mocked and exploited. You become guarded and suspicious of everyone. Cole did his best to conform to avoid punishment and to survive. A tough, careless mask goes on and it becomes a heavy burden, but you wear it so long it becomes difficult to take off.

It is hard to say what Cole is really like, but there is definitely anger and bitterness within him. His life has never been easy, but he does his best with what he has. Somewhere deep inside him is undoubtedly the inquisitive, playful child that has been buried under the weight of everything else.


FAMILY, FRIENDS AND FOES

His mother is a drow slave by the name of Kyandria.
His father is a human mercenary named Kaleb Solvi.


BACKSTORY

Cole was born in Adela, if you want to be technical. Kaleb Solvi's mercenary band had reluctantly camped off the side of a road just north of the Serha Plains when his mother went into labor. It was a reasonably large group, with several slaves kept by individual members. Cole's mother Kyandria was the slave of his father.

They almost didn't keep him.

His father decided to raise him to become a mercenary so that he could contribute to the group. It was a very harsh life and neither of his parents was inclined to show him love or affection. Instead he was hardened and trained to be whatever paying clients needed him to be. He was taught to kill, he was taught to steal, and he learned on his own never to count on anyone – not even his family. Not that he had much of a family.
