Description: This western man wears tan robes with leather pauldrons. Though occasionally he wears more armor.

His eyes are gray and he is always smoking a pipe.

Personality: He considers himself the protector of his home. He feels this is his duty and calling. His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Rolen is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: He was born in the west, but his parents moved at a very young age to the south. He took every job he could get his hands on, but the opportunities for Elves in the west were limited. He has made many enemies by not giving into corruption and outing many instances of it.
