Valerius is a tall, slender elf with silver hair tied back in a neat queue. He wears functional, indigo dyed leather armor over travel worn silks. His eyes are the color of a winter sky, and he rarely blinks when observing someone.

He is highly analytical and views every situation like an investigator looking for clues. He is formal, polite, and rarely smiles, preferring the cold comfort of facts over the unpredictability of emotion.

Valerius served as a senior investigator for the Moonspire Watch, an elite unit that protected elven sovereignty. During a routine investigation into a theft, he discovered that the suspects were actually whistleblowers trying to reveal corruption within the elven high council. Rather than arrest them, he allowed them to flee, sacrificing his standing and his home to prevent a greater injustice. He was exiled and labeled a traitor to the crown. Now he travels the human lands as a mercenary for hire, using his specialized archery skills to hunt down the real culprits of the theft. He hopes to find the evidence that will clear his name, though the sprawling chaos of the world outside his spire often overwhelms his structured elven sensibilities.
