You wander through the rocky terrain of Laboo, and look out over the land. You've watched these humans and elves grow. You've seen kingdoms rise and fall. You've seen kings die in battle, and you've seen them rise to the occasion to bravely challenge the unnatural with their mortal armies. You reflect back on your own life as you consider all that they have accomplished. You've come so far since that day when you defeated Eurogynes. You've come so far because you've had to. All you knew and loved as a young elf has been forgotten and poisoned. No one in the world shares your burden... and no one in the world even cares about the hellish swamplands that once housed the great elven society that you grew up in. No one remember the architects. No one remembers the craftsmen. No one remembers where you're from, and yet they know who you are. You sigh, and continue on your way. There is much work to be done.
You are the last of the Endraali. You are Atna al' Faea.

Appearance
Posessions
Dinaer
Dinaer is an old blade of Endraali fashion. Featuring a slender, double-edged blade and an elegant, yet functional, guard, it seems to be nothing special, albeit well made. However, having been used going on a century, it is a testament to lost Endraali craftsmanship. It's name translates to "Silent One" in common -- it's actions echo far louder than any words.
Quarterstaff
As he has a general aversion to killing people, the job a sword is designed for, coupled with the fact it has been decades since Atna has found a swordsmaster with enough skill to actually teach him anything new, the elf decided to take up and train with the quarterstaff. His staff is nothing of note, just a plain, very sturdy, wooden quarterstaff. He tends to always have his staff with him, be it slung across his back or used as a walking and hiking stick.
Knives
Atna carries a collection of concealed throwing knives about his person, for when a foe is out of reach of sword or staff. Notably, one of these has a blade the color of an angry sunrise. Another features an incredibly ornate hilt, bearing the features of a great dragon.
Timepieces
Atna keeps two pieces of clockwork on his person at all times. First is a nondescript, leather-banded wristwatch. It seems unassuming enough, despite being work on the wrist instead of a chain. It almost feels as if your gaze slides right past it, and that if you were to turn away, you would forget it was even there. Second is a pocketwatch. A beautiful piece, wrought of what appears to be the finest silver, it is inlaid with archaic symbols and runes which defy translation. It is always cool to the touch, no matter how long you were to hold it, and seems to defy any sort of magic to divine its purpose, or to even open the latch.
Giegue
Equipment in a different way, Giegue is the name of Atna's small ship, passed down to him from his old mentor and companion, Malak Giegue (whom Atna named it for). While not large, it is a sturdy, quick vessel, and it serves as Atna's secret home in addition to a means of transportation. Very few know of its existance, and none save Atna know where the ship is usually docked when not in use.
