Background ~ Born out of time in the year 423 in the Age of Enthronement ~ Roslyn is a half fae, half elf, left by her mother, a norn, at birth with a hedge witch who couldn’t herself have children. From the beginning, she knew her child was fae and would barely be a young girl by the time she was well into the grave. She taught her what she could in the 64 years she raised her. (While in the mortal realm Roslyn ages at a decelerated rate: 8 years = 1 year apparent age gained). Outwardly Roslyn was 8, but had the experiences and wisdom of an elderly human and was already accomplished at minor spells and languages. She was passed down over the generations to others within the family (cousins, aunts…) any and all who would take her in, and so the years passed, the child slowly becoming a woman, passed down as a family heirloom forming a bond if not in blood, in history. From time to time Roslyn would be drawn into the First World by the forces of time or fate She doesn't remember much of the First World as her time there appears to her as a vivid dream.

Ripples- Roslyn found herself emerging from the First World as a stone skipped across a pond. She would leave it emerging into the mortal world finding that decades or generations had passed while for her it seemed but a week had passed.  She collects tales and legends often participating in the very stories she has set about gathering. She always takes the time to check in with her human family and meet the newer relations. Roslyn sales some items of value when she exits from The First World to make her way in whatever “present” she currently finds herself in. Because she is out of touch with the true value of her antiquities, as it is hard to keep track of when she acquired a certain relic, she has been known to sell a bottle of 200 year old wine for 20 sp. A sampling of her more treasured items ~ Lost diaries of various explorers from across the ages; Signed 1st editions of various books she has inspired across the ages dedicated to her; antique coins and other ancient currency, long lost bottles of wine.

AppearanceRoslyn appears as an alluring elven woman in early adulthood. Because of her time in the the First World, her original appearance has been altered over time. Her once black hair has “aged” and is now entirely silver falling to her shoulders. She has a sort of timeless quality to her as though time just won’t stick to her. Willowy and tall, she moves with an easy grace and confidence that can only come after over 4,000 years wearing the same body. Her violet eyes betray her fae heritage regardless of the guise she takes. In her true fae form in The First World, her silvery hair and violet eyes change drastically: her hair is threads of silver falling well past her shoulders while her eyes are a deep, shimmering indigo. Her other features are also exaggerated. Because of her considerable time there, Roslyn suffers from mild bedlam and the Mystery of Time. She “hears” whispers that sometimes confide secrets in her, while other times they seem to be darker prophecies that she doesn’t fully understand. In the mortal realm, her shadow flits about her, not quite matching up with where it should be and sometimes not quite human at all in shape.

It is important to note that Roslyn's physical age (168) are the years she has spent on the material world as when she is in the First World, she is effectively immortal and her aging stops. As a result, while she has been alive throughout 4000+ years of history, she has only experienced 168 years of it, roughly the same amount as an elf just starting its adventuring career(Epic Point Build)
