Extra;; Interestingly K'hali spent a great deal of his youth developing his survival skills in the woods, focusing intensely on archery as it was the most natural skill he felt suited for. At age 80 he was hailed as an impressive archer, even amongst the rest of his species, but by no means a master yet. However he is forced to constantly practice, which causes his fingertips to develop rock-hard callouses and his arm muscles to be slightly bulkier. The more aristocratic elves criticize him for his broad shoulders, muscular arms, and strong thighs as they are not considered attractive qualities in an elf. He doesn't mind though, so long as his skill at archery continues to improve. Heck, he'd probably grow a second head if he thought it would improve his vision.
Slightly stockier than most elves, K'hali nonetheless possess the same grace and poise as the rest of his species. In fact, if he were to be compared to an animal, one might say he's similar to a hawk. Typically he wears forest-colored clothing, such as brown deerskin boots, breeches, and a leaf-green cloak. Yet the details in his clothing are rarely visible due to his insistence of wearing light armor. The dark steel protective plates cover most of the vital areas of his body, although he does refuse to wear gauntlets or a helmet on a daily basis.
Picture
Internal
Personality;; K'hali is a rather solemn and serious person. When not traveling through the woods or perfecting his archery skills, K'hali works as a servant or footman of many of the higher aristocratic elven families. In a sense, he's the ideal butler. As such he's required to be professional and respectful of the family her serves at all times... which spilled into his private life and now causes him to smile less and less. Laughter is rare for him, although if one learns to read the small quirks of his mouth they might be able to detect a sense of humor. Jokes aren't likely to get a laugh out of him, but a combination of wit and incidental humor might be able to prod a chuckle or two.
Underneath his serious but respectful exterior, K'hali is an iron-clad fortress. He possesses a quiet strength that is absolutely unyielding and formidable if challenged. He maintains a stern, if slightly rugged, outlook on life and chooses to follow much of the old way in his practices. His morals and values all stem from the unspoken wisdom in the wilderness, sometimes with a crushing strictness. He is reserved and hard in his mannerisms, never having exuded the same youthful spark his peers have. K'hali is simply an old soul, careful and calm in his actions yet persistent in his decisions.
Despite being tough as old root, K'hali can be surprisingly supple with his smiles and gentle at heart. He knows he comes off as an aloof grandfather type, so he tries to moderate his stoniness with temperance and compassion for those weaker than himself. K'hali looks after the people around him, especially youngsters of any species. In fact he can be fiercely protective of those who he deems under his wing, lending all his inner strength to those in need within his adoptive family.
