Appearance:
A life of pain and strife had indeed left a mark on Brael Loresmith. From his early childhood, he was cursed and berated by his peers for his mixed heritage. Brael still sports a faint, nearly indiscernable scar on his brow left by a classmate's hurled stone. Years of fighting in the War of the Lance, as well as the Chaos War, have also left their scars on this wizened elf. Jagged scars trace their way down his body. Once a young, strapping warrior, Brael now depends on his keen intellect as a result from an encounter with an extraplanar creature that shattered his health. The encounter also mysteriously changed the color of his hair and eyes. His once honey-colored hair took on the appearance of strands of silver. His pupils became the color of liquid silver. Thusly did Brael earn his nickname, "The Silver Sage." Now in his later years, Brael dresses differently than he did in his warrior days. Brael always wears a dark green robe with silver trimmings. Wrinkles have covered his aging face, yet Brael refuses to give into old age. brael insists upon shaving off the beginnings of a silver beard every morning. Brael always carries several magical items with him, of which is usually his staff. This staff has runes and markings carved in it, with a large sapphire embedded in the wood near the top. This staff was a gift from a Kagonesti shaman, and can spit deadly bolts of lightning on command. Although he is getting old, Brael still stands tall and commanding, at his full height of 5'8". The wasting effect of the extraplanar creature sapped Brael's endurance, and nearly wasted him away. Now, he's still extremely thin, fitting the description of "skin and bones." Even though he has been through so much pain, Brael still maintains a cheerful demeanor. His eyes sparkle with a warmth that many find comforting.
Brael is getting old, and he knows it. Although he doesn't look his age, Brael is reaching the limits of life for a half-elf. Until the end does come, Brael vows to continue his studies, and to continue to pen the Bestiary Scrolls.
Game Statistics:
As a Keeper of the Word, Brael can attempt a Reason action (of varying degrees, depending on the obscurity of the information) when attempting to recall information about Krynn's past. Because of his experiance with the creatures of Krynn, any action to recall information about this subject results in an automatic Trump bonus. As a Keeper of the Word, Brael is also as interested as sharing his knowledge as he is accumulating it. He gains an automatic Trump bonus for Presence actions when sharing his knowledge. However, Brael does not share the "Enthrall An Audience" action that most Keeper of the Word's do.
Brael also does not suffer the compulsive desire to "tell tales." This desire is manifestated in the Bestiary Scrolls. brael also knows the schools of Enchantment, Divination, and Summoning.
