My full name is Nerresta Ailin Elpinoino. The meaning of the name has significance for me in RL. I am 42, and my complexion is a pure white. I have long blonde hair that is usually worn pinned up in a braid-bun at the nape of my neck. (Thus it is not cumbersome to my hat) My eyes are a deep blue. Though I am short by wizard standards, I am not stout like a hobbit, but am proportionate.
As far as my attitude is concerned, I am generally a very optimistic person. However I am very passionate about things of great importance, and can be quick to anger. I am happiest in the early mornings, when the day is fresh and new. Each day holds so many possibilities!
I am usually dressed in blue, though my wardrobe may change quite often. Blue and silver are my colors of choice. I like silver shoes. However, I am a very sensible wizard in most respects.
My beginnings are uncertain, though much can be assumed. I was left at Orthanc by unknown parents. I was trained in the ways of wizardry from that point on. In my travels I have gained but two weapons: I wield a sword which I have named Tinwemacil, and my staff, a slender rod of Mithril, etched with messages of hope for all in Middle earth, of its original purpose from which it has deviated, but to which it may still return. I have spent my long life in the pursuit of knowledge, and in the help of the many races of Endor. I have had many adventures, but I know in my heart that the best. |
Your robes are cut to fit your size_ a fact you know as I measured you for your fitting! Now now? Your robe is of a ?pharaoh? hue_ that is a light purple down at the hem, that turns into a deeper colour above the belt and at the neck. It gives an impression of lightness and ease down below, yet vibrancy and intensity above. A sigyl is at one shoulder_ a small silver cornucopia, to bind the cloak that goes with this robe. The sleeves are short, to help you keep your independence and flatter your petite figure.
