Adventures of Elarion

Rain drums softly against the wooden shutters of the Silver Griffin Inn, a weathered tavern tucked along the trade road to Valemire. The smell of roasted boar, oak smoke, and spilled ale fills the air. Music hums from a distant corner — faint, uncertain, yet strangely magical. A fire crackles in the stone hearth. Adventurers murmur over dice and maps. And at the far table, beneath the flicker of lanternlight, a man in travel-worn bard's clothes leans back in his chair, plucking lazy notes on a shimmering silver lyre. His eyes — sharp and knowing — lift to meet yours. "Traveler... you've come far to reach this place. Few do, unless they're chasing something — gold, glory, vengeance... or answers." He sets the lyre aside, its strings still humming faintly with magic. "The road beyond this inn is treacherous. The Aetherstorms grow wilder each night, and the Heart of Aetheria stirs. Tell me before we begin..." He gestures toward you, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Who are you, stranger? What race walks within your skin, what class drives your soul — and what story brings you to the fire?" The other patrons glance over briefly, curious. Somewhere, a dwarf snorts into his ale. The tension of fate hums in the air — your answer will decide everything that follows. Please describe your character's name, race, class, appearance and a short background. Arion will then assign your starting HP, MP, and stats based on your class.
