Any extroversion in his body is reserved for his children. Deep down, he can be a bit of a softie and even has a sense of humor. He was often a black sheep in Malthemoor as his heart was a lot bigger than most. When you are in his good graces, he will give everything for you. Towards strangers, Maeryn is selfish in that he will put down anyone else in order for his loved ones to have the life they deserve. His goal is all that matters. He can easily go cold and even cruel towards strangers. He isn't one to unnecessarily torture people, but he will kill you if it furthers his journey and not feel a shred of guilt. However, if you do happen to be within his party or even cared about, he will fiercely protect you until his last breath. Calm and patient, the hunter will wait for as long as he needs to. He will stalk his prey for days and days if he sees fit. He is not quick to panic unless something important is at stake. He is willing to do whatever it takes to meet his goal. Maeryn is careful to not lose his life, but he is not afraid of danger. His reaction speed is often quick and he is able think on the go. He's cunning and clever in the avenues he excels in, but could not tell you much when it came to history or other educational fields. Insanely motivated and determined, Maeryn is not someone you want to have as an enemy.

Traditionally, offspring had been numerous in their family to grow their hunting guild numbers. However, his mother Qamara died during childbirth so they had not had the opportunity to have more than one son. His father raised him by himself. Loving yet stern, Maeryn fondly remembers Rydel even after all these years. Rydel died when Maeryn was but eighteen. Growing up without any parents to guide him into his young adult years had been a challenge, but it ultimately made Maeryn the man he is, strong and independent. He spent much of his first few decades as part of the army, which was required of many able dark elven men. He was a well-trained guard for Malthemoor up until reached age 120. He hadn't moved too high up the rank but had gained respect. Many hunters in his family had all put in some of their youth into service for Malthemoor as the training and hardships that came along with it ultimately made them better hunters in the long span of their life. Maeryn retired at only age 120, having felt 100 years was enough service to give. He much preferred working in the hunting guild with the rest of his relatives. They had hunted everything and anything. Animals for food. Monsters to protect the kingdom or even for materials per request. However, a void was left in him. It had been years since he had even received a hug. Luckily for him, he met a huntress named Nyana while out in the woods at the age of 125 and they instantly hit it off. Her name had been Nyana. A few years later, the two had their first child. Having quite no one else in his life, he gave his all to make his wife happy and the daughter that soon joined them. Haera had been a sweet little child that had melted Maeryn's toughened heart. Being his first, he had loved her more than anything ever in his life. But at the tender age of five years old, Haera was lost along with Nyana during a vigilante light elf attack in Malthemoor Kingdom. They had unfortunately been at the wrong place at the wrong time. Maeryn's heart had been torn and it took a very long time for him to move on. It wasn't until Maeryn was 220 that he came across an abandoned fairy baby while hunting in the woods. Despite her race, Maeryn couldn't help but look at her and think of Haera and took her in, despite the many protests of those who accompanied him. He raised the child under much controversy. Many of those who had been at his side left him and Maeryn was expelled from the guild. He became a lone hunter, but Maeryn grew to love the child so much that he did not mind. Alaia was loyal to his side even as Maeryn dared to marry again in recent years. His second wife, the one he married at age 300, was named Phinara. She accepted Alaia and was awfully kind for a dark elf. She bore two sons for Maeryn, but died during the birth of the second child, Kharis. Desperate to not lose any more of his family, Maeryn began to blame the surroundings and racism of the world he lived in. He knew something had to be done if he was going to ensure those left in his life could live the highest quality degree of life, without dark elves sneering at them in the street or fearing the attack of other races. When he heard of humans being summoned to the world, he shuddered. His father had told him as a boy the powers humans had held. After hunting in all kinds of terrain all over Avalia, he knew the sheer force nature could bring. Hurricanes and forest fires could beat even the biggest and strongest of prey down. Intelligent beings that could wield these forces could surely make a difference and he worried that not only the Twin-Headed Dragon, but Malthemoor's military would not take the threat of humans seriously. After all, most of them had been stuck up in the North for so long while the hunters had dared to journey into the forbidden land. He realized the key would be to find these humans and kill them, enabling the dark elves to have a higher chance of success in this war while also making the world safer for his children. From the moment he saw the assassinations of the royals, Maeryn knew what he had to do.
