Name: Zeliko Age: 46 Gender: Male Rank/Craft: Master Forester Residence: Smithcraft Hall / Woodcrafter section Description: Zeliko has an aura of gentle strength about him, partially due to his large build of 6'7" height and wide shoulders and chest to fit that, as well as powerful leg and arm muscles built in the logging camps during his many Turns in the Craft. His face is masculine with a square jaw and bushy eyebrows that almost make up for the receding hairline, but the dark brown eyes looking at the world above a hawkish nose are gentle, and there's almost always a tender smile on his thin lips. Personality: Someone has said that Zeliko has the patience of a tree, and it is true that it is hard to anger him, but when he is ticked off, you'd better stay clear of him. A loving father and husband to his wife and son, Zeliko is content with very little personal gain in his life. The way he sees it, he already has everything he will need. Background: Zeliko's closest relatives are all sea-goers, but he himself was more interested in the material the ships were made of, so he was sent to the Woodcraft Hall to learn more of his interest. Becoming interested in growing and tending the trees opened him the path of a forester, and he made his way to the Southern Continent and its lush forests to learn more. Upon returning to the Woodcraft Hall he heard of new Holds being opened on the Western Continent and expressed his interest. When the other Masters agreed that he would indeed not only be suitable for the position, but also receive an upgrade in his rank, Zeliko underwent the testing required to prove his skills and knowledge in his craft to become a Master Forester. Riddi, a plump, homely woman with big heart and quick temper, has been Zeliko's dearest one for many long Turns, but it wasn't until he attained his Master's status that he asked her to marry him. She replied positively, and the newly-weds moved to the Western Continent with their thirteen-Turns-old son, Zodio, who has followed in the footsteps of his parents and apprenticed in the Woodcraft at the tender age of twelve Turns. Pet Name: Woodshaving Pet Species: Firelizard Pet Color: Brown Pet Description: Woodshaving is only a couple of Turns old and rather shy with strangers. He is brave when his human is in danger, though, and will attack any threats in a blink of an eye. Reserved Characters: Journeywoman Woodcrafter Riddi, wife, specializes in furniture making at the Hall Apprentice Woodcrafter Zodio, son of 13 Turns, at the Hall Curdan/Kosarin, a young man of mysterious and criminal background |
