Appearance

Armin is built averagely for a blood elf male of his age, being slender with a small amount of lean muscle. His facial features are rounded and betray his obvious youth. He seems to take good care of his appearance, being somewhat of a pretty boy.

Personality

Armin is a carefree fellow, not letting himself get bogged down by troubles and lives his life to the fullest he can each day. In most situations, he’s a light-hearted and friendly individual who welcomes anyone friendly into his company freely. When put into a potentially dangerous circumstance, he will try and smooth-talk his way out of it but if that fails, he’ll turn to violence as a last resort.


History

Armin was born to a middle class High Elven family in Silvermoon City. His toddling years were spent being coddled and loved with undivided attention by his parents and at the age of sixteen, his father began to attempt to bring him into the world of magic. To his father’s delight, Armin took to arcane magic with enthusiasm and he found himself falling toward the school of Conjuration a few years after his studies began.

When Armin was twelve his sister, Reyna, was born and her birth brought much joy to the family. Armin began to study magic under his father’s tutelage and became able to cast more powerful conjuration spells, going from creating pebbles to being able to summon household pets in a manner of years. He spent his free time when he wasn’t studying playing with his younger sister and the two formed a close sibling bond that lasted for decades to come.

During Reyna’s disownment from the family, Armin argued with his father to allow Reyna to come home but his protests did little to change his father’s mind. This drove Armin to become a stronger mage so one day he could surpass his father and put the man to shame for being horrible to his sister. His years of endless training and study ran on until the day that changed the elven race forever, the invasion of Quel’Thalas by the Scourge.

As the Scourge marched their way through Eversong Forest, Armin along with a group of other mages went south to fight the oncoming threat. His years of training were finally given fruit as he assisted the elven forces in slowing down the undead horde but as they were overwhelmed, he fled back to Silvermoon with his father to evacuate Reyna and Armin’s mother. The pair of mages arrived just in time to watch Armin and Reyna’s mother get killed by a Ghoul. After Armin’s father blamed Reyna and sent her away for good, Armin decided that this man was not who he wanted as his role model so after the invasion he packed up what little he had left and followed his younger sister’s footsteps and took to life on the road, learning how to busk in the streets in order to earn enough coin to get by.

He travelled and enjoyed his newfound freedom for years until he met a young elven woman named Ophelia Blacktear. Unlike other woman he had met in the past, he found himself falling head over heels for the huntress and tried his best to become more like her. The city boy tried his best to become a rough-and-tough wilder and even learned how to shoot a bow with a decent amount of skill, under his new lover’s tutelage of course. But the relationship was fated to end as he failed to cope with living in caves and trees and having to skin and cook his own food, so Ophelia left him.

Since then Armin has resumed his unbound life of travelling the world with nothing but the clothes on his back and the guitar in his hands, enjoying his life and aiming to have as much fun as possible.
