Physical Description:

Raze is 19 years of age, has blue eyes and long blonde hair, and as most elves have, ears that come to a slight point at the top. He is commonly dressed in a blue tunic, white leggings (known to foreigners as "tights"), and brown midcalf boots. He is normally accompanied by Gaele, a faerie from deep within the lush forest.

Storyline:

Raze was only a mere 10 years of age when orcs attacked his village. He was out collecting berries and fruits for his parents in the forest and had returned to see orcs setting the village ablaze. He could do nothing but hide in the bushes and wait for the orcs to leave. Once they did, he rushed to his small house, now thoroughly on fire, to save his parents who were inside. Yet, it was too late to save them, they were well burned to death by that point. He received many severe burns from the blaze and barely escaped the house with his own life. He collapsed from smoke inhalation and the severe damage done by the fire.

He would have perished if it weren't for a noble cleric who was called Meidei. He had been passing down the main roadway, not far from the village and rushed to see if he could help the villagers. He resucitated Raze and took him in. Raze lived there for several yearsas Meidei had sent him to be trained by the best teachers. He was taught in the ways of the druid for several years and then was introduced to a young elf named Kaden. Kaden had taught him archery and friendship. The two would grow be be good friends. After his training with kaden was complete, Meidei decided that Raze should be more well-rounded and thus sent him for bardic training. Once Raze was 18 years of age, Meidei felt that the young elf was ready to go out into the world. From there, Raze travelled through many realms, much of it in Terra, but eventually having come across Ravensdale while on a walkabout.

Raze had lost all of his memory from the day of the orcish raid on his village. He could not remember his birth name. Meidei had called him Raze, since he was the only creature in the realm to have lived through such an inferno.
