Appearance

Physical Description

Thinner and shorter than most Lizardfolk; and his physical activities tend to favor dexterous maneuvers rather than brute force.

Body Features

Stands upright with more posture than one might expect. Often wears baggy clothing to better hide his overall appearance; though he will shed it if a fight brews.

Facial Features

Often covered by a hood; his face is thin and elongated, many of his elvish facial features are gone, but if one looks close enough, they can see hints of his old life. His eyes retained their color as did most of his skin. At a quick glance though, it is the face of a Lizardfolk though with unusually colored skin.

Identifying Characteristics

Dulled purple scales, and bright sky blue eyes set him apart from other Lizardfolk, to say nothing of his overall demeanor.

Physical quirks

Despite his relatively new appearance, he still behaves as one would expect an elf would; Dexterous, Intelligent, and normal speech patterns.

Apparel & Accessories

Often wearing his elvish robes that he has maintained since his exile, he straps his spell book to his back, and occasionally uses his tail to hold it in the same way mage hand would hold it.

Specialized Equipment

Trained to be a bladesinger, he continues on; honoring his parents with the elvish tradition, he prefers to use blunt weaponry to incapacitate foes.

Special abilities

Blade Song, adds several bonuses to his combat arsenal such as increased movement, more powerful attacks, spell casting with weapon attacks, and a more difficult target for enemies to hit.

Mentality

Personal history

Varis Galanodel was the heir of a powerful Bladesinger for the Moon Elves; being trained to be part of the royal guard for, who is now known as, the Queen of Waterdeep. He was studying to be a specialist in wind magic ( to defend against ranged attacks as well as being able to fly through the sky; attack from above)
During the reign of Tiamate, his unit was ambushed and he was killed. Resources were scarce, so the reincarnate spell was used and the result left him in the body of a Lizardfolk. He retained most of his abilities, but his appearance left me outcasted as the ones known as Eniles & Friends had not yet put Lizardfolk into a... slightly more positive light; so he was exiled before his full training was complete.
 
He didn't gain the ability to speak draconic, so the local Lizardfolk tribe did not accept him either (in fact he barely escaped with his life), they called me Vaecaesin, which I have adopted as my new title.

Education

Trained in the Moon-elves royal guard to be Bladesinger like his father.

Part-time adventurer; part-time anthropologist

Social Aptitude

While able to converse with the average person, he prefers to travel either alone or with a single companion. Though he has from time to time helped a group of individuals take on a challenge, he is afraid of being exiled or cast out, so he usually goes his own way as soon as he can.

Behaves as one might expect a Moon Elf to behave.

Likes practicing with blunt short-swords, or with other finesse based blunt weaponry.

Speech

Tends to use more a more intellectually stimulating vocabulary whenever conversering with anyone of an above average intellectual level of comprehension. But can also talk normally when his rhetoric goes over the average individual.
