Yelmaer II

Backstory
Yelmaer was born Skados to truly evil, chaotic parents who took pleasure in destruction. Though he tried to fit in, Skados couldn't understand the enjoyment of such sinful acts, thus pushing him to attempt to run away from his community on multiple occasions. At the age of sixteen, he finally accomplished his first of many goals.

After many long days and nights, he eventually came across an elderly elven hermit, named Yelmaer, who raised him as his own. He taught Skados the art of music and gave him the vast knowledge of magic which could be used for good. Yelmaer gave strict rules to Skados to never travel too far or he would face the resentment towards his race by the common people. Though once again unfree to roam the surrounding lands Skados was comfortable, although after hearing stories of Yelmaers past life as a bard in the city of Waterdeep, Skados' curiosity about the place grew.

Not long after Skados reached the age of 22, Yelmaer passed away peacefully in his sleep. In the following months, Skados heavily grieved the loss of his father figure, as he was the only person who he ever felt close to. Eventually, Skados was back on his feet and vowed to visit Waterdeep under the name Yelmaer, as to leave his grim heritage as far behind him as he possibly could. He took the hermit's card set, which they had both played with on many occasions, as well as his lute as a reminder of the person who changed his life.
