NPC : Roland Canfield

Height : 6'4"
Weight : 150
Eyes   : Midnight
Hair   : Blue with streaks of white.
Age    : 289 Elf Years                              

Race : Half Elf

Appearance  : On first glance, he appears to be nothing more than a brick
wall made of armor.  But once you get a better look at him, your dead... 
When he does take his helmet off, he appears to be a very young boy. Looks
are very deceiving in his case.  He is in fact in his mid-life.

Equipment : Besides his almost pure mithril armor, he carries a mithril 
shield, helmet, and axe.  The axe has runic letters on it. When activated,
his axe will fire out a ball of fire.  It can only do this once a day, and
only after it has been exposed to solar radiation for several hours. He
also carries a gold brooch, the only thing left from his true parents.

Personality : All but his friends see him as a bloodthirsty warrior.  His 
friends get to see his compassionite side.  He is a very outgoing individual.
You will usually find him at the Black Wyvern tavern in Brightsand.  He is
a very curteous individual when he chooses to be.  Fights for the right 
cause, in his eyes. Not easy to make friends with. Will defend his friends
to the end.

History :
        His history on Nu is extensive.  Soon after he was born, he crawled
into a portal.  He was raised by a human family and only barely knows of his
elven heritage.  The only thing he has from his parents is a brooch with the
symbol of a rising flame on it. He has been on Nu for 284 years.  When he
reached about 30, he realized that he wasn't human and was in fact an elf.
He now thinks of himself as a half elf because he was raised by humans. He
has stayed in the seclusion of the southwestern islands for most of this
time, only recently coming out into the world.  He recently discovered the
fair city of Brightsand, where he now lives.  Knows Striton Razoni by 
reputation, but they might be friends.... Works as a part-time bounty
hunter for the mafia when the mood hits him.  Knows Rufus from time he
worked in Glassworker's guild.  He has many friends in Brightsand and even
takes an occasional class at the University of Nu.  Has exceptional fighting
skills from living in an untamed wilderness for 200 years...

grandchild's, but not yours...  So you basically have to put up with
me....Ha!"
