Outward Appearance

Coruhuron is one of the Eldar one could look at and immediately assume "soldier". He is formidably tall, lean, strong and broad shouldered. He has a strong jaw and brow, straight nose and chiseled features.

Soldier and sentry, he looks the part in stature, gait, stance and the way he observes - gaze always calculating, Sometimes aloof, sometimes warm, deeply appraising, playful, yet at times so sharp that it seems biting. Those eyes are steel grey, though under firelight or strong sunlight contain the translucent effect of a metallic copper hue, due to some flecking of the iris. His hair is dark though has a tendency to catch the light.

He has enough social and self awareness to keep himself appearing mild and welcoming, (and recently more playful) in company but it wouldn't be difficult to perceive him as intimidating, or eerie at times particularly with his habits of long silences in strange places of conversation and his way of standing or sitting deathly still.

Background

-Work In Progress-

Coruhuron, whose epesse means "He who is cunning and fiery/swift to act", is an ancient elf, a wayward soldier who was born in the First Age, though he does not make this fact well known. It may be noted in his aura by those who are perceptive to such things.

For millennia, until very recently, he has traveled in solitude; ever seeking camps and small strongholds of the Enemy to engage in attacks of surprise and stealth - taking out as many foes as he possibly could each time until the need finally came to retreat or move on, only to repeat this pattern like an insatiable predator.

Recently, he has found himself in company again owing to the influence of a few chance encounters. He has (in the past season or two) made a more conscious effort to seek the company of other elves, and has come out of his shell at long last to re-familiarise himself with laughter, joy and less war-like obsessions and admirations.

This is well, and coming more easily to him every day; for Coruhuron was once a cocky, yet well-liked socialite in youth.
What disruptions led to him being so battle-lusting and solitary for so long, can only be told by few.

For the moment, the renewal of joy and companionship is a novelty he is enrapt with while it lasts, yearning once again to see the Golden Woods with this new gratitude and invigorated perspective.
