APPEARANCE: Ilphyl is short (4’ 9”) and has a wiry build, with a face that is all angles (and not just the ears). Their skin is charcoal grey — dark, and with purple undertones that means they don’t just look like a dark-skinned human. They have fine, white hair which they tend to wear long (though often tie back or braid). Their eyes are red-violet, and unusually dark; they are also working on getting eye protection because they cannot comfortably hang out in full sunlight. Their left arm has a complicated tattoo in elvish script in a metallic grey that almost blends with their skin.
ABOUT: Ilphyl is a dark elf about midway through their first century who had a generally terrible childhood to the point where ‘run away from home, probably get eaten by monsters’ was their reasonable reaction. They avoided death by dumb luck. Like many young people who escape their religious fundamentalist upbringing, they came out as non-binary and embraced nature magic. Except in D&D, that means the ability to turn into a bear or summon lightning. This pretty much left Ilphyl’s job options as ‘hermit’ or ‘adventurer’, and they chose the latter. They met many interesting people, got framed for murder, and ended up saving Waterdeep from a fiendish ‘replace the nobles’ plot. Also taught a community of orcs about agriculture, temporarily adopted a hyena, an otyugh, and a giant spider (not all at once), and became an honorary uncle to the future offspring of a Neverwinter noblewoman and a dragon. Standard D&D stuff.
ABILITIES: Elf abilities: Ilphyl has some inherent magic, can literally see in the dark, and doesn't need to sleep (though they do need to spend 4 hours in semi-conscious meditation).
Druidic Magic: I'll prepare a spell list, but Ilphyl can cast up to 5th level druid spells.
Wild Shape: As a Circle of the Moon druid, Ilphyl can change into most animals. Any damage they take is not carried over to their elf form -- a lethal blow will just force them back to their natural shape, possibly with extra damage carrying over.
OTHER: Ilphyl's backstory has some triggering content. I'll warn about it if it comes up IC, but I'm working on an opt-out post.

* Ilphyl is not considered an adult by elf standards, though their exact equivalent age is hard to pin down. So keep that in mind.
