Character:Fey

Appearance
Well muscled after years of training, but rather short. He has immaculately kept black curls, and golden-brown eyes with a hint of a golden sparkle to them up close. He also has a shimmering golden sheen to his skin, and golden freckles that appear over his cheekbones and shoulders if he's in the sun too long. Fey also has large iridescent black wings that appear when summoned, and when they are not there are still a dusting of black feathers across his back and shoulders; though (cw: abuse) there are about a third of them missing, and there are burned scars where they used to be, and his wings appear a bit tattered with feathers flying loose whenever they appear.

Personality
Uses humor or anger as a cover for any real feelings, will tell you he's fine almost every single time. Used to hiding things and is a little afraid to open up because he's not sure how to trust, but he's working on it. In reality he feels things very strongly, quick to tears both when he's hurt or frustrated, or even just when he's happy, and when he's comfortable among people he'll start to show these things more and more. He's aware he has a tiny temper problem, and will get upset with himself if he lashes out at others when he doesn't mean to. Big heart, once you can be let in. He is also rather mischeicous and firmly believes in 'Here for a good itme not a long time' vibes.

Background
When Fey was born his parents were shocked, as they were both human and both families had been for some time and yet he was clearly of celestial lineage, with little black wings and other unwordly features. He is one of the only Aasimar he or anyone is aware of, as it is only in recent years that they have returned to the world after the dark centuries. He left home about ten years ago, settling down in Auris where he was taken in by his now friends, Tristan and Julien, and by his Paladin mentor Dolores.

Story Thus Far
Fey had travelled to the Sun Festival, intent on enjoying himself and taking his vows to properly become a Paladin on the solstice. He met Gavi, Rose and Sothiyra, as well as Auro, fleeing the city, and they have been travelling together since.

Gavi:
The two of them bonded right from the start, mostly due to shared trauma (whether they realized it or not). Gavi was the first to discover Fey's secret when they all began travelling together after intimidating it out of him, but after that she both helped keep his secret and never really brought it up again. Since then they've only gotten closer, and consider each other their closest friends. When Gavi was debating leaving the party in the desert, Fey was the one who told her that it was alright to leave, because he wanted her to be happy and do what would be best for her regardless of how badly it would hurt him in particular. When she returned after a couple days Fey immediately clung to her, just happy she'd changed her mind and come back, and they ended up snuggled up together that night. After that it became almost habit for them, and they've slept together almost every night.

Rosenstern:
Started off on a bad foot, with Rose's curious personality and need for answers and Fey's distrust not meshing at all, especially when Rose pushed a little trying to figure out what Fey's deal was. They were a bit tense after that, but eventually things got smoothed together as they both learned how the other worked a little better, leading to Fey opening up to Rose a few times about some of the things that had happened to him. Rose is the first person he (intentionally) showed his scars to, after Rose had been curious about the mangled state of Fey's wings when he'd shown them. They're currently in a weird friend/crush limbo, with both having growing feelings but neither knowing what to do with them, and they've now kissed at least once.

Aella:
His bad choices buddy, they both indulge the other's bad coping mechanisms and need for revenge. At one point they promised each other to help take down the other's father, and Aella has now (in a sense) fulfilled her end so Fey will likely do the same for her.

Sothiyra:
Shopping and drinking buddies, Fey would probably kill or die for her and wants to protect her from everything.

Corrine:
His relationship with his mother is strained at best, but he genuinely loves her, and her him. When he was young she had a hard time standing up against his father, and remained ignorant or complicit in a lot of the hate and ahuse his father doled out. She feels a lot of guilt for what she did (or rather, didn't do), and for not stopping Fey from leaving home. They are currently mending things, and he has promised to return to see her again once everything is better.

Jean:
His relationship with his father was bad from the moment Fey was born. Jean was never a good person, well known for his intense fighting in the crusade, however he was also unjustly cruel to anyone he deemed 'lesser', and after a failed attempt to run for mayor of Auris he and Corrine left and he established Bellmare, a city entirely of humans run in a very old fashioned, out of style system. When his son was born an Aasimar he was furious, and took it out on Fey throughout his childhood, barely acknowledging him as his son and him hidden as much as posisble. He is also the reason Fey left home, after overhearing a conversation between his parents where Jean told his mother his intent to kick him out. (cw: abuse) He is also the reason for the scars on Fey's back.

Gautier:
Fey and his older brother were very close, and he still feels the loss of him very heavily. It's his armor that Fey currently wears.

Francois:
Francois doesn't remember Fey very well, having been young when his brother left, and idolized their father to the point he held contempt for him. After Fey told him some of what their father had done, and seeing how corrupt the rest of the town was, Francois has promised to try and be better, and they're working on mending their relationship.
