I Can’t Take It In
Name: Damien Gilreed
Nickname: none
Age: 28 appears 18
Race: Half Golden Elf // Midnight Elf
World: Runia
Alliance: neutral
It Couldn’t Be Anymore Beautiful
Looks:
Damien inherited his mother’s dark hair but received his fathers blue eyes and the Golden Elf human like ear though they come to a small point. His skin is only slightly tanned and has a pale glow to it in the sun. At first glance he looks like a Midnight Elf but he does not have the long ears to signal him as such.
Celebrity Claim: Logan Lerman
Personality: Damien is a very sweet guy and has a very caring heart in spite of his up bringing. Everyone hated him in his village where he lived because of his lineage. He is bitter toward the Golden Elves for his torture but his younger sister Ilina helped him with his temper toward them. He is very much a gentlemen and romantic. Ilina was one who taught Damine patience and to keep and open mind. He was trained in sword fighting and archery but was never as skilled as others. He likes to use his magic as a Golden Elf mostly, control over elements and such. Damien was never taught the magic of the Midnight Elves and does not know if he is able to use any of it.
Damien loved Lalaith and was heartbroken when she was killed. He blames himself for death and the death of his sister Ilina. Since their deaths Damien walks with a heavy guilt and a sad expression. His distain and almost hate of both Golden and Midnight Elves alike has grown. Damien never liked fighting and battles, he is a peaceful guy and tries to give everyone a chance. And while revenge hasn’t crossed his mind, were Damien to run into either kind of elf he would probably have a few words to say to them. If his anger is strong enough he may try to do something reckless. Damien is emotional and his feelings get a hold of him a lot and in the heat of the moment Damien reacts and rushes into things.
All he wants is to be accepted and not to be told what he isn’t. He doesn’t know how to classify himself to others. Out of habit he’ll refer to himself as a Golden Elf, often correcting himself by saying he is just Runian.
Family:
Kelan – Father [560] (Golden Elf)
Shina – Mother [533] (Midnight Elf)
Glory – Step-Mother mother to his sisters [498] (Golden Elf)
Ilina – Half-Sister [25] –deceased-- ((click name for picture))
Fren – Half-Sister [55]
Mellia –Half-Sister [99]
Nostrina – Half-Sister [104]
Lalaith –Wife [23] –deceased-- ((click name for picture))
History: Damien is the second youngest of five children and is the only son. He was the product of a small infatuation his father had with a Midnight Elf named Shina while he was still married to his wife Glory. After Damien was born he was left on the steps of Kelan and his family. Shina was unable to care for him, her people refused to accept him. It almost went the same way with the council of Kelan’s village. He wanted to raise his son and promised to raise him to the ways of the Golden Elf, despite his appearance of a Midnight Elf. The elders agreed and Kelan was allowed to raise Damien. However Glory was not pleased, she always hated Damien since he was a small baby. She refused to care for him leaving Kelan and his second eldest daughter Mellia to do it. Mellia was kinder than her mother and sisters and had a compassionate heart for Damien.
A few years after Damien was taken in, Glory gave birth to her fourth and final daughter Ilina. Much to her displeasure Ilina and Damien formed a close bond as they grew up and the two were inseparable. They did everything together and were each other’s best friends. Ilina did not care about how Damien came to be and never thought of him as her step-brother but her full fledged brother. Mellia was still warm and kind to him but his other sisters did their best to ignore him completely. Damien was constantly pushed around and made fun of in his village for being half Midnight Elf. Whenever he went out Damien would wear a hood as to not draw attention to himself. When he was young Damien got into many fights with local boys who relentlessly mocked his mother, calling him a half-breed and a scorn upon Runia.
As he got older the only people he could count on were his father, Ilina and Mellia (most of the time). In order to avoid those in the village he and Ilina would go out everyday when they could make it away from training and schooling to the woods. They would explore and play games staying out until they had to go back to the village. When Damien hit the age of 17 (when he stopped aging) his eye caught the fancy of the Golden Elf named Lalaith who lived in the village. She was one of the only Golden Elves in the village who didn’t torment him or say nasty things to him. Upon Ilina’s support Damien approached her about his feelings. To his surprise she did not shoot him down but in fact returned them.
Four summers later, with a hidden relationship they were married and came out in the open about their marriage. Over half of the village grew angry over the match making Damien wish he had never said anything. Lalaith and him made plans to move to a secluded part of the Selwyn Woods where they could be alone and happy, but they never got the chance. A few months of living together Damien returned from the forest having spent the day with his sister Ilina, to find his home on fire. Lalaith was inside.
Damien mourned her death; he loved her more than anything. Kelan urged his son to leave knowing someone in the village had set the fire. He warned his son that he would probably be next. Damien left the next night and traveled south with no true destination. Eventually Damien stopped near the city of Brinan. He figured being close to Donholv and a colony of Midnight Elves would not matter as much seeing as his looks could pass him for one of them, save for the normal human ears. A few years of living there Damien was visited by his sister Ilina who had been searching for him. She didn’t want him to be alone and decided to live with him. It was nice to have a familiar and someone he cared about living with him again.
About a year ago, the local Midnight Elves found out about Ilina and attacked. Damien had never been completely skilled in fighting and was quickly over taken. He was unable to save his sister just like he was unable to save Lalaith. Damien fled to save his own life and found himself traveling north toward the Rula Plains hoping to make it to the Northern Desert and maybe beyond, whatever lay beyond it. Damien didn’t exactly care anymore. Everything he had cared for was taken from him. He is unwanted by Golden Elves and Midnight Elves alike. He is just wanting acceptance.
When trying to cross the Crystal River Damine tripped when he reached the other bank and fell in. Resurfacing Damien found himself in another world, Narnia. Maybe here Damien could be accepted for what he was. He views it as a start for a better life.
