She is different from other elves, which makes some resent her. She is an elf, just an extremely different one. She is small and uses knives for a purpose, to make her different.

hmmm... this sounds like a cool storybook. I'm already in two other storybooks though and don't want to wear myself out trying to get to them all. Either I have to delete my character from one of the other stories I'm in, or decide not to be in this one. such a tough decision! Anyhow, I will think about it

@therealme Do it! Join! If you can't keep up, we can work something out. It will be a lot of fun. You should totally join
@bandgeek101- Ok got it. Could your character be a half-breed since she's not like other elves? I think she would make a perfect dwarf-elf half breed. Tell me what you think.
@crazycraz I'm getting a lot of half-breeds, if you could pick a pure-breed that would be better, but if not, the half breed is fine...

@bandgeek101 sorry for all the trouble! I'm just really specific with the different species. I'll make her a dwarf-elf half breed if that's ok since we don't have any other dwarves and that will give her her fiery temper and her shortness

Personality: Michael is an infuriating, stubborn, sarcastic type of guy who has issues obeying authority and generally listening to the advice of others. He is reckless, ambitious, courageous, and impulsive. He chooses the "shoot now, ask questions later" approach, and he has a wicked, often cruel, sense of humor. He is very upfront and honest about what he thinks, and has many times hurt someone's feelings due to this factor.
History: Will be revealed as the story progresses.
Elf, human, dwarf or sprite (if sprite please specify which one): Human
Appearance (a picture is welcome but also describe in words): Marlon's appearance is plain and nondescript. Average height, average build, brown hair, brown eyes, no jewelry, used clothes, nothing that draws attention.
Personality: Marlon is stoic and reserved. He is very deliberate in his words and actions. He doesn't waste words or time, but spends it carefully.
History (optional): Marlon's history will be revealed in the course of the story.
Dragon: No dragon for Marlon, he doesn't like the attention they bring.
Other: Marlon is a spy and has spent a good deal of time in Azak territory. His knowledge of the Azaks and the paths they'll have to cross is why he is present in this mission.
Marlon has received quite a bit of advanced combat training, including martial arts. He rarely uses weapons, because most peasants don't carry swords. He is most likely to carry a bow with quiver, and a hunting knife, anything more and he would look like a soldier instead of a peasant.
Marlon and Imara have the most in common and perhaps even trained together.
Marlon is single, but he probably won't open up to anyone easily. He's better at hiding his feelings than expressing them.
Marlon is a survivor. He is able to survive in the wilderness and in urban environments. He's been trained in the same arts as a criminal.
