Tystlcaryn, Dark Elf Wizard (Patreon)

Character Name: Tystlcaryn, Dark Elf Wizard

Tystlcaryn was born to a minor noble house in the capital of the Drow. He was a child of incredible potential with an aptitude for magic who would have been the jewel of the house if not for being male. Not letting any asset go to waste, however, his matron had him trained for a life of servitude as one of the house wizards. He excelled at his studies and was eager to learn more, which both pleased his matron and allowed him a bit of freedom in what he pursued. He knew he wanted to escape before his second decade passed; accidents of birth did not decide a person's worth regardless of what his society taught. He spent the next several years learning, studying, and preparing.

Tystlcaryn was barely into his sixth decade (still away from "maturity") when he saw his chance; he stole one of the books of lore, a spellbook, and what little supplies he could manage in order to escape his Underdark home. With the help of his fae spirit friend and familiar Maegdrhs, he made his way to the surface and spent the next several years on the run, and eventually hiding within a network of scholars to study lore and magic with one singular goal. He was going to redeem and free his people. He was going to kill Lolth.
