*Weight: 200lbs

*Occupation: Professional Bounty Hunter

*Psychological Profile: Elthas is a very proud of Elf. He has an exceedingly precise personality almost to the point of irritation. Elthas pays attention to detail, minor details that many would not spot. This attention to detail is borderline obsessive. An eccentric man, Elthas is a fellow of many unique tastes. Elthas is known to savor the most minute aspects of many of life's vices. Everything from fine women to fine liquor, Elthas will decipher the flavour to appreciate the craftsmanship.

Elthas has the mind of an artist. With this detailed world-view, Elthas obsessively observes everything around him. Very rarely do details escape his sharp mind and his sharper eyes. Elthas will point out things that he finds out of place from tacky clothing to that strange piece of evidence overlooked by locale law enforcement. This personality quirk has made Elthas appear rude and inconsiderate to his peers. Elthas does not care.

He specializes in taking "dirty jobs." Instead of assisting the current Empirical regime that lurks in Corone, Elthas oft works for an organization known as The Syndicate. Elthas considers himself a "professional cleaner" and specializes in cleaning up the messes made by others. Elthas lives a life that is a gray one, neither black nor white. Elthas doesn't consider anything that he does to be purely evil, but rather necessary in the grand scheme of things.

Elthas has the obsessive qualities of an artist. In his spare time he paints and draws. Elthas has acquired some skill as an artist. His attention to detail has allowed him to master art quickly. In his community he has earned a positive reputation as a painter of some skill. Elthas uses all of his talents to chase targets that would be elusive or tricky to most. Elthas lives for the thrill of the chase, and the heart of the hunt.

*Vice: Lust

*Virtue: Justice

*Alignment: (E) Evil

*Appearance: Elthas is an Elf of average height. Traditionally, Elven folk are tall and lithe, and Elthas is no exception. However, Elthas is built slightly stockier than the typical Elf. Elthas' physique is that of a balance athlete. He has a lanky physique with long limbs. Elthas has light brown skin, glowing blue eyes, and no hair. He is completely bald. On his chin he has a slightly unkempt black goatee. Elthas's eyes are built narrow and slender. His eyebrows are very wild, and he has tribal tattoos upon his body that are painted purple. Elthas has the long, slender fingers of an artist. His nose is very slender, and his face structure is quite angular.

*Attire: Elthas wears the traditional garb of a squire of his tribe. He wears an elegant leather vest that is coloured black. A no sleeved tanktop is usually worn beneath the vest. Elthas wears leather shoulder pads that are not suitable for armour, but rather, for fashion. They have elegant Elven markings upon them. At his elbow, Elthas wears plain cloth elbow guards and at his hands, he wears simple leather gloves. His pants are slightly baggy and decorated in the latest fashions worn by the Elven military. Boots commonly decorate his feet.

Elthas wears a cloak that is emblazoned with the battalion that he belongs to. The fabric is coloured red. Further accessories include a quiver of bolts for his crossbow, two scabbards for his primary weapons, and a backpack hidden 'neath his cloak. He wears a simple belt. The symbol is elegant.

*History: Like most of Althanas' Elven-folk, the folk of Ruild (Concordia Forest) were a sturdy, tenacious lot. Elthas Belthasar grew up during the roaring time period in Corone post-Empirical take over. Street gangs, feuds between rival organizations, and anti-government propaganda were the norm. The soldiers of the empire were given free reign to exterminate or other wise do away of the viceroy's enemies. The angst of an entire generation of people were quietly subdued. During this turbulent time period, the alliances of old were destroyed by the viceroys. Corone became a paranoid, isolated kingdom at war with it's own heart and soul.

Elthas Belthasar saw the collapse of Radasanth with his own eyes. No more Heroes came out of that once great capital city. The age of villains had fallen upon Corone.

Elthas Belthasar was a typical Elven youth. His people lived within an Elven city that lurked deep in Ruild. Elthas's tribe was neatly divided into several large clans that consisted of High Elves and Hybrids. In Elven society, rank and blood-line meant everything. Elthas was fortunate enough to be bourne of pure-blood. Both of his parents were Elves, one of them of significant standing within Elven society. Elthas was raised in a particularly strict household and learned the customs of his people at an early age. Many of his customs were concepts of honour and justice. Concepts that seemed lost to the folk of Ruild. Radasanth had become a rotten piece of ambrosia, an empty shell of it's former self.

The Corruption of Radasanth began to reflect a growing corruption occurring within the Elven communities. Diplomats reaching out to Radasanth were turned away and sent back to Ruild. The old Alliances between Elf and Men that existed since the Demon Wars of antiquity were destroyed. The society of Elves became fearful and world-weary of the silver-tongues of men. When the Corone Rangers reached out for assistance from the Elves of Ruild, they were rejected. Human politics were not the politics of Elves.

Just as Radasanth had become increasingly isolationist as it prepared for war against all enemies, the kingdom of the Elves became equally isolationist.

Elthas, and many of the youth of the clans did not share the beliefs of their elders. Elthas grew up wanting to respect the allegiances of old. Elthas joined the Elven military academy at an early aged and trained with the finest Elven warriors that the generation had produced. Elthas excelled in his intellectual studies, as well as his combat technique. He quickly developed a love for art and poetry. Elthas ventured to Underwood as soon as he earned the title of Squire and could travel out on his own.

It was during his stay in Underwood that Elthas really got to see how bad things had gotten in Corone. One night in question, Elthas was out on a stroll when a gang of ruffians had stormed a Human gentlemen of elderly appearance. A fight quickly erupted. Elthas was accompanied by a squad of fellow military cadets when the fight occurred. Pleading with his fellows to assist the gentleman, Elthas's request was denied. Deciding to act on his own, Elthas turned a blind eye to rank and moved to assist the elderly man on his own. By the time Elthas had arrived, the old man was already dying.

Elthas managed to scare off the unprepared ruffians, and they fled but not until after they had gotten what they wanted. Not realizing what he had stumbled upon, Elthas assisted the old man. The old man revealed to Elthas that he was a powerful member of an organization in Corone called The Syndicate. Elthas had oft heard of the organization. With his dying breath, the old man decreed to Elthas that he take his body to a Syndicate safe house that he was heading to. Elthas complied. And that set off a series of events that would forever shape the destiny of the young cadet.

Mute Stone: (Item/Artifact) This object is a family heirloom. It is a rare jewel inscribed with elder runes. It is an object that was once used against the magical powers of the elves, but they had since harnessed it's power for their own use. Elthas was given such an object when he became a Squire in his military training. The object is a small, unassuming stone that is actually Masterwork (Due to advanced Enchantments) in nature. The wielder is taught secret techniques that allow him or her to release the stone's power. Several symbols are present on any one such stone, but Elthas only knows the First Symbol.

Of this, Elthas has acquired a secret Mute Spell. Thrice a day, Elthas may conjure it's power in a battle situation or in a quest. If Elthas goes up against a Magi, Elthas has a chance to cast the power within the stone. When Spells are put into play on a combat field, Elthas may act. He can activate the power of the Mute Stone against one spell at a time. The Mute Stone's power allows the user to dispell a single, applicable Spell target at at time.

(Note: Use of Mute Stone versus Player spells require permission)

(Finisher) Ritual of Binding: As a Bounty Hunter working for The Syndicate, Elthas has learned one particularly strange Spell. Against one target that Elthas has defeated, Elthas may call a Binding. This binding, if successfully applied, produces a powerful capturing device. When applied, the device is then wrapped around the wrists and ankles. Due to the nature of the Spell, it produces a strange aura that attempts to cancel out the power of a captured target. If successful, the target cannot escape a Binding once it is applied. Thus, it is used as a finishing maneuver. The Binding power may only work on a target that has been defeated. It is applicable once per thread.
