Avarus is an elf. Or at least was an elf. For many years Avarus traveled the planes in service of the light. Embraced by Dhari, now he is a creature of night (literally). Avarus is constantly tormented by the struggle between night and day that takes place inside his body. Very fond of the outdoors due to his elven nature, Avarus spends much of the night in the forest, while having to hide in the daylight. One day he hopes to get one last glance at the glorious sun, before it turns him to dust. Avarus, having been raised in the light, has knowledge of the following skills: tracking, healing with herbs, agriculture, animal empathy, planeshifting and construction. Under his tutelage of the dark paths he has gained knowledge of the following: levitation, wine tasting, haggling, and dirty jokes. He can also make a damn fine chili. Avarus carries a scimitar. A weapon of light, Xilamber, causes Avarus pain whenever used. Avarus also wears a cloak of fine silk that magically blends in with natural surroundings. He wears a size 10-1/2 boot.
