Aurelion - The Evening Star

Born to a human mother, and an elven father he never knew, Aurelion’s earliest memories are under the canopies of the great Estel Trees of Nan Thalias. His mother; a druid of the stars herself raised Aurelion single handedly, naming him after her favourite constellation: Aurelus The Spriggan. When Aurelion was only thirty his mother passed to the next life, so honouring her he continued to watch and look over the cove of Nan Thalian forest that he had spent his life in, guided by the stars to where his attendance was required and drawing upon them for his power. Over a century he spent in the forest, having very little contact with other peoples apart from travellers, foragers and hunters – most of which he would approach with caution or anger. His experience with other people’s was almost always negative, so he grew to dislike them greatly. Instead he found friends in the animals of the forest, and the spirits that wondered the woods as well such as Gwynevel the Gracious. Though the lives of animals were short and fastly lived compared to his own, so Aurelion would see to keep trinkets of each of his friends as they passed, be they tufts of hair or bones during their burial. His communes with the stars took him many places. When Kelathar returned on Duskweave, Aurelion joined forces with other heroes to battle the Lich, though the battle was long and draining. Aurelion lost faith for a time, he wandered Duskweave Isle after, healing the land that had been ravaged by the Lich. Thus when his task was complete the stars called to Aurelion again, empowering him with their light. They called him back to his homeland of Nan Thalias to face another trial before him.There he was revealed part of his new empowerment: the ability to transport himself and those around him to the Fey at will, like those of the Arch Druids and Elder Fey Spirits.
