Ga'Elian has lived his whole life in a nomadic [[Sylvanori]] tribe called the ''Faravanilas'', roaming the Periantha wilderness. He has no siblings, and enjoys solitude. Despite the fact that his tribal elders habitually focused most religious observances on [[Eluna|Ni'essa]], thanking her whenever the hunters returned successful from their expeditions, at birth, he was named ''Elian'' (meaning ''Gift of Eli'', the name by which [[Daeus]] is called among Sildanyar) because he was born on Midsummer's Day (aka the Summer Solstice) in the year 901.
   
Embarking the night of the first full moon after his 100th birthday on his ritual Dreamwalk, he penetrated deep into the water wilderness to be alone with the Sky-Singer, and gain her blessing on his adult life. When he returned from this month-long spiritual journey, he discovered that four of the tribe's children had been killed by a swarm of giant wasps. He and his whole tribe mourned their loss for a year, as children among the [[Sildanyar]] are not nearly so prolific in this age as they had been in days of yore. The tribe had dealt with various threats many times before, but it was this devastating loss that gave Ga'Elian his first "favored enemy".

Embarking the night of the first full moon after his 100th birthday on his ritual Dreamwalk, he penetrated deep into the wilderness to be alone with the Sky-Singer, and gain her blessing on his adult life. In the process of this Dreamwalk, he felt the calling of [[Gilead|Mahal, the Hunter, the Great Stag]], and adopted the ways of the [[ranger]], although still maintaining Ni'essa as his divine patroness. He changed his name to Ga'Elian, indicating his calling as a ranger. When he returned from this month-long spiritual journey, he discovered that four of the tribe's children had been killed by a swarm of phase spiders. He and his whole tribe mourned their loss for a year, as children among the [[Sildanyar]] are not nearly so prolific in this age as they had been in days of yore. The tribe had dealt with various threats many times before, but it was this devastating loss that gave Ga'Elian his first "favored enemy" (magical beast). His first favored terrain is forest, just like those he knew in his childhood (http://bit.ly/29rnFo6). In such places, he feels most at home. His second favored terrain is underground, selected in furtherance of his focus on opposing fiends. His third is mountains and hills because his animal companion is native to temperate hills, and his fourth and final favored terrain is plains.
  +
  +
It is now some 19 years later, and in that interval Ga'Elian has struck out on his own, seeking to broaden his knowledge of the world and the affairs of its inhabitants. He had found wars, desolation, and corruption among the settlements and communities of the self-styled "civilized nations", and feels a mixture of sadness, pity, and anger as a result, but also a divine mandate from the Celestial Huntress to fight these evil forces. He is also encouraged to hope for the ultimate triumph of tranquility, beauty, and health just as Eluna brightens the dark of night with her gentle beams, and inspires her faithful with dreams of a better future.
  +
  +
Ga'Elian's animal companion is a [[griffon]] named Erithamiel, meaning ''Silverbeak'' (from his [[Equipment#Essence_Bonding|essence bonding]]).
  +
  +
While Ga'Elian uses a few different weapons, his primary weapon is his bow. It is named ''Tar'niessa'', (meaning ''Moonshaft''), and is a +1 Seeking Holy Adaptive Ghost Touch composite longbow of Evil Outsider Bane.
  +
  +
With its recent infestation of dæmons, Ga'Elian came to the City to lend his assistance, taking the evil outsiders as his second favored enemy. He later took undead as his fourth and fey as his fifth and final favored enemy.

While there, he participated in a Guild mission to assist a farmer, and in the encounter startled everyone including himself by [[PRP: Hare We Go|killing an ettin with a single volley of two arrows]], after it had sustained a bit of damage from having a the corpse of a wolf-sized hare thrown at it by [[Kailin]].
  +
  +
The ettin never got an attack before it fell. Kailin decapitated the corpse, presenting the heads to Ga'Elian as trophies, but Ga'Elian declined, keeping only the brute's teeth for a necklace. The kill is depicted in a mural in the Fire Lodge in Alexandria's Colosseum District, and [[Yelrona]], who was in the party, subsequently commissioned the following song to mark the occasion.

<u>The Ballad of Ga'Elian</u>
  +
  +
Now a farmer needs assistance,
  +
So approaching from the distance
  +
Three elves and a child of giants near the farm.
  +
  +
Sunblade Sorscha, sword of morn,
  +
Mighty Kailin, giant-born,
  +
Quick Yelrona and Ga'Elian the wild.
  +
  +
Though the day is bright and clear
  +
They see no sign as they draw near
  +
Of any threat that has this farmer's crops defiled,
  +
  +
And yet the crops are disappearing
  +
As the four of them are nearing.
  +
Soon enough they see what means to do them harm.
  +
  +
Bunnies aren't just cute like everybody supposes,
  +
They got them hoppy legs and twitchy little noses,
  +
And what's with all the carrots?
  +
  +
What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?
  +
Bunnies!
  +
Bunnies, they're giant bunnies!
  +
  +
The buck-toothed beasts soon face defeat,
  +
And, having saved the farmer's wheat,
  +
Our heroes pause to heal and offer thankful prayer,
  +
  +
But they soon have cause to learn
  +
A giant hare's owner, in turn,
  +
May be itself a giant: in this case an ettin.
  +
  +
For this fight they're unprepared,
  +
And perhaps a little scared,
  +
Holding firm but still they're nervously a-sweatin'
  +
  +
When a pair of arrows' flight
  +
Ends the unexpected fight,
  +
And the wild elf earns the title Ettin-Slayer!
  +
  +
Bunnies!
  +
Bunnies!
  +
Bunnies, they're giant bunnies!
  +
  +
Or maybe ettins?

One of the crowning achievements of his adventuring career was when he returned to his tribelands and succeeded in persuading the Faravanilas to come out of seclusion to perform the rite of [[Estellen Calen]] in the forests north of Alexandria, between the Mists-enclosed Mictlan and the Druid Grove in which stands one of the saplings of the primeval Ygdrassil Tree. The tribe's Chief Elder, [[Evinthas Faravanilas]], judged that the need outweighed the importance of maintaining the secrecy of the ritual, and not only consented to allow non-Sylvanori to witness it, but even invited the displaced Sith-makar refugees of Mictlan especially. The ritual succeeded in dealing a mighty blow to the encroachment of corruption in the wild, invoking a second Springtime in that area that would endure for several weeks afterwards.

Ga'Elian Faravanilas


About My Character

Ga'Elian has lived his whole life in a nomadic Sylvanori tribe called the Faravanilas, roaming the Periantha wilderness. He has no siblings, and enjoys solitude. Despite the fact that his tribal elders habitually focused most religious observances on Ni'essa, thanking her whenever the hunters returned successful from their expeditions, at birth, he was named Elian (meaning Gift of Eli, the name by which Daeus is called among Sildanyar) because he was born on Midsummer's Day (aka the Summer Solstice) in the year 901.

Embarking the night of the first full moon after his 100th birthday on his ritual Dreamwalk, he penetrated deep into the wilderness to be alone with the Sky-Singer, and gain her blessing on his adult life. In the process of this Dreamwalk, he felt the calling of Mahal, the Hunter, the Great Stag, and adopted the ways of the ranger, although still maintaining Ni'essa as his divine patroness. He changed his name to Ga'Elian, indicating his calling as a ranger. When he returned from this month-long spiritual journey, he discovered that four of the tribe's children had been killed by a swarm of phase spiders. He and his whole tribe mourned their loss for a year, as children among the Sildanyar are not nearly so prolific in this age as they had been in days of yore. The tribe had dealt with various threats many times before, but it was this devastating loss that gave Ga'Elian his first "favored enemy" (magical beast). His first favored terrain is forest, just like those he knew in his childhood (http://bit.ly/29rnFo6). In such places, he feels most at home. His second favored terrain is underground, selected in furtherance of his focus on opposing fiends. His third is mountains and hills because his animal companion is native to temperate hills, and his fourth and final favored terrain is plains.

It is now some 19 years later, and in that interval Ga'Elian has struck out on his own, seeking to broaden his knowledge of the world and the affairs of its inhabitants. He had found wars, desolation, and corruption among the settlements and communities of the self-styled "civilized nations", and feels a mixture of sadness, pity, and anger as a result, but also a divine mandate from the Celestial Huntress to fight these evil forces. He is also encouraged to hope for the ultimate triumph of tranquility, beauty, and health just as Eluna brightens the dark of night with her gentle beams, and inspires her faithful with dreams of a better future.

Ga'Elian's animal companion is a griffon named Erithamiel, meaning Silverbeak (from his essence bonding).

While Ga'Elian uses a few different weapons, his primary weapon is his bow. It is named Tar'niessa, (meaning Moonshaft), and is a +1 Seeking Holy Adaptive Ghost Touch composite longbow of Evil Outsider Bane.

With its recent infestation of dæmons, Ga'Elian came to the City to lend his assistance, taking the evil outsiders as his second favored enemy. He later took undead as his fourth and fey as his fifth and final favored enemy.

"Ettin-Slayer"

While there, he participated in a Guild mission to assist a farmer, and in the encounter startled everyone including himself by killing an ettin with a single volley of two arrows, after it had sustained a bit of damage from having a the corpse of a wolf-sized hare thrown at it by Kailin.

The ettin never got an attack before it fell. Kailin decapitated the corpse, presenting the heads to Ga'Elian as trophies, but Ga'Elian declined, keeping only the brute's teeth for a necklace. The kill is depicted in a mural in the Fire Lodge in Alexandria's Colosseum District, and Yelrona, who was in the party, subsequently commissioned the following song to mark the occasion.

<OOC> This deed, together with his bringing down 3 hill giants in the Runish-Dranei war resulted in his choosing Giants for his third favored enemy when he achieved 10th level.

  The Ballad of Ga'Elian
  
  Now a farmer needs assistance,
  So approaching from the distance
  Three elves and a child of giants near the farm.
  
  Sunblade Sorscha, sword of morn,
  Mighty Kailin, giant-born,
  Quick Yelrona and Ga'Elian the wild.
  
  Though the day is bright and clear
  They see no sign as they draw near
  Of any threat that has this farmer's crops defiled,
  
  And yet the crops are disappearing
  As the four of them are nearing.
  Soon enough they see what means to do them harm.
  
  Bunnies aren't just cute like everybody supposes,
  They got them hoppy legs and twitchy little noses,
  And what's with all the carrots?
  
  What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?
  Bunnies!
  Bunnies, they're giant bunnies!
  
  The buck-toothed beasts soon face defeat,
  And, having saved the farmer's wheat,
  Our heroes pause to heal and offer thankful prayer,
  
  But they soon have cause to learn
  A giant hare's owner, in turn,
  May be itself a giant: in this case an ettin.
  
  For this fight they're unprepared,
  And perhaps a little scared,
  Holding firm but still they're nervously a-sweatin'
  
  When a pair of arrows' flight
  Ends the unexpected fight,
  And the wild elf earns the title Ettin-Slayer!
  
  Bunnies!
  Bunnies!
  Bunnies, they're giant bunnies!
  
  Or maybe ettins?


Estellen Calen

One of the crowning achievements of his adventuring career was when he returned to his tribelands and succeeded in persuading the Faravanilas to come out of seclusion to perform the rite of Estellen Calen in the forests north of Alexandria, between the Mists-enclosed Mictlan and the Druid Grove in which stands one of the saplings of the primeval Ygdrassil Tree.

The ritual succeeded in dealing a mighty blow to the encroachment of corruption in the wild, invoking a second Springtime in that area that would endure for several weeks afterwards.

(RPP) Influence PC Badge
Degree: A Known Face - Tier 2
Influence with: The Iron Book
Lingering Words Skill: Diplomacy
Application: The IB is a low-key, secretive organization due to its topic matter. This means Ga'Elian knows about them, which is a unique thing, and has some acquaintances there. It doesn't mean influencing policy or direction, but having some acquaintances who know more about demonology is definitely a good thing, and a good resource for him.
