[color=1BC617][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u][/color]
[indent][color=B7E3B6]Orias has worked hard to distance himself from the selfish and arrogant prince he once was, and his low opinion of himself makes it very easy to choose to try and save others before himself. He is protective towards those around him and would not leave another behind to face danger alone. He has had so many experiences over the years that have grounded him, making him far more humble and a kinder elf. He thinks things over far more carefully, considers others before he acts. While he enjoys the company of others he is more reserved and does not open up easily. Orias would rather listen to others than talk about himself. He prefers the company of others to loneliness and the ideal chatter of a stranger above silence. 

Although Orias generally seems very calm he has always struggled with his temper, and nowadays he prefers to walk away rather than act on it, but even so, it often gets the better of him. His patience only stems from his fear of action and of making mistakes. What others might mistake for bravery, is his own lack of regard for his own life or safety, and Orias in fact considers himself to be a coward. He has spent a great many years running from and avoiding his past and the burden of the title he was born with. He hides from mistakes he can’t face, no longer allows himself to hold any ambition, and believes the only way to repent for his past mistakes is to continue to punish himself, to keep his life simple and away from any meaningful responsibility. He is easily tempted into taking the easy way out of things, constantly drawn to past vices, and would rather avoid problems than face them. He believes the only way for him to avoid making the same mistakes is to keep himself suffering, toiling, and always dwell on every failure. 

 While Orias’s own sense of humor is very dry, he enjoys the company of those who can make him laugh or even smile. At one point in his life, he was charismatic but this has faded from lack of use. He prefers to keep people at a distance rather than maintain close friends, choosing to hold himself back out of fear that they might discover who he was. Orias doesn’t believe in manipulating people. He tries to conduct himself with the type of honor and morality he once scoffed at and to continually strive to be better. Orias is not one to give up, no matter how tired he is or how hopeless things get he endures and pushes himself forward.[/color][/indent]

[color=1BC617][u][b]History:[/b][/u][/color]
[indent][color=B7E3B6]Orias, the youngest child of the royal family of the Sun Elf Kingdom was born into a life of privilege and luxury. He had everything he wanted, a palace full of servants who waited on his every whim and parents far too occupied with older siblings to have the time to worry about him. He quickly ended up a spoiled and entitled child, free from much of the crushing responsibility that his older siblings had to endure. He never envied them, never wanted responsibility or life devoted to duty to his kingdom. Orias was never destined to become king, he had older siblings for that, all that was expected of him was to simply not make the family look bad and eventually marry well. Even with expectations set so low, Orias still managed to fail to meet them. His early life was filled with numerous scandals. He became known for his frequent visits to brothels and low-class bars, getting into fights with the common folk, and all-around embarrassing his family any way he could. He took none of his studies seriously except for combat training, which he only did because he found it fun. He did what he wanted with no thought to the family image and ignored any sense of responsibility. Eventually, his father had enough and felt that time in the elven military would straighten him out. 

Even within the elven military, a prince does not take orders, he gives them. His reckless and rebellious behavior continued even as he was given command of his own platoon. His command was mostly for show, to improve his image to the public, and his father was more than aware of just how unfit for leadership his son truly was. The bar was once again set so low for him, and again he failed. Ordered to stay within the kingdom, patrol the borders, make reports, and avoid engaging in conflicts but he found it all far too mundane. He craved action and glory so when rumors of nearby orcs encroaching on trade routes reached his ears he decided it was time for action. The very much hungover and far too green prince led his platoon against orcs in battle and for the first time in his life felt the entire weight of his responsibility fall upon his unready shoulders. 

The entirety of Orias’s combat training was controlled, against teachers who knew better than to actually try and harm the young prince. Orcs, on the other hand, held no such reservations. His men were slaughtered and the young prince found himself laying amongst the dead and wounded with his throat slit, his face horribly scarred, and covered in his own blood. For the briefest of moments, he truly expected to die. He almost wanted it, but he had led a useless life and he knew he only brought disappointment to his family name but death only meant that could never change, that he’d always be remembered as a failure and a fool. Pride drove him to cling to life, and Orias used his light magic to cauterize his bleeding throat and he lay among the dead and dying until he was sure the orcs had gone. He survived long enough to be found wandering the road days later. When he first saw his face reflected in a pool of water, battle-scarred and unrecognizable from the beautiful prince he had once been, he saw only a way out of the life he resented. 

Rather than return home, Orias rode with merchants to Roshmi City, the thought of seeing his family's disappointment in him was something he wasn’t ready to face. He decided he needed to make his own way, to earn his title rather than simply be born into it. Months became years, years became decades but he stayed away from his home. He found work as a mercenary, then a carpenter, and finally a blacksmith. Earned his own modest living in anything that required true hard work and what he did began to matter so much less than knowing that he had earned it with his own hands. Orias became a different person, found it so much easier to change in a place where no one knew him, where nothing was expected of him. After so many years went by he continued to avoid any contact with his family, stayed away from his kingdom, convinced himself he was better off in a life he earned and they were far better off without him around.[/color][/indent]
