Description: 5'5" and muscular, this southern man wears a black coat over a violet low-cut shirt, and a feathered hat upon his head. He has a very tight haircut. His eyes are brown and beady.

History: He was born a particularly ugly child, much to the horror of his parents. Being born in the south, he completed his medical training abroad so as to avoid the war. He returned after the war having achieved medical proficiency.

He has never given up on his poetry dream.

Motivation: Regain custody of his son.

History: Aerdeth hails from a village terrorized by giants. While he appears to be a normal Elf, he's... not quite right.
