“Do you have what you came here for? You do? Good, now that you have your bearings you may proceed out the door. N o w.”
A sharp-tongued Elvaari historian from the Adventurer’s Guild's Archivist Division. A man who prides himself in his work and his family. Nothing else matters.
Appearance
He has a lanky, skinny figure. He is shorter than most Elvaari his age, making him seem rather small in comparison. He has faded almond coloured hair with strands of white hair clearly noticable, a lightly tanned complexion, yellow-orange eyes and long pointed ears adorned with ear accesories that connect to his glasses.
On his back he bares a curse mark covered by scars, as if it was something to be covered up. The mark itself bares the design of an open eye in the centre of a cloud.
He wears a murky green suit with a pale green inner shirt, along with an orange cravat and thigh height boots. On occassions during the cold season he will wear a large overcoat.
Personality
Ulvultar is a very work-focused individual, he prefers less talk more action to get work done faster to achieve the task at hand. This translates to how he interacts with others, giving his explanations in an almost outwardly mean tone, sometimes sarcastic or passive-aggressive. He is less snappy when it comes to his family but there are times where he appears distant.
Biography
Ulvultar originates from Heartsford Cliff, a settlement in Sil’va that exports tea leaves to Castrella. He's from the House of Ballahast, one of the two major families that live in the settlement. The Ballahasts have been loyal guards to Heartsford and the Oulieus family for decades, Ulvultar was next in line to take over the family title. However, due to the conditions that the House of Ballahast is under, and their very “strict” rules in place for their family members, Ulvultar developed a curse which deletes specific memories whenever he gets stressed. Allowing him to better cope with the environment he grew up in. Although his memories were nothing more than hazes, the uneasy feeling he had living in the House of Ballahast still remained the same.
This prompted Ulvultar to run away from Heartsford together with his sister, Alterma. However, when Ulvultar reached his hand out to her that day to run away, she refused. Be it for the sake of her family or her own fears, she stayed, urging her brother to leave without her. Which he did, but not before promising to come back for her one day, which he never did. For when he least expected it, his curse would rob him of even those memories.
On his journey to find a place to start anew, he would eventually meet a younger Sectum woman named Oat, whom he would travel with for the next few years.
After travelling with Oat for many years, they eventually got married and settled in the Residental District of Eversun City where they made a home for themselves. Ulvultar took up the job of a historian at the Adventurer’s Guild since he had quite the knowledge of the nobility in Castrella.
