Happy Blorbo Thursday Jay!! Tell me more about Elior hehehe 👀🔥

Ohhh I will be more than happy to do so!! 🤭🩵

First of all: *inhales* I LOVE HIM SO MUCH AHHHHH

Okay now we can start lmao

So Kendra finds him as a tiny baby in a raided and burnt down village after she killed all the raiders and consumed their souls. How did she find him? His bright white soul, brighter than any soul she's ever seen on earth, flickers as it's trying to cling to his dying body.

So yeah, he has a very pure soul and pretty much keeps it like that throughout his whole life. He's just a sweet little angel (not literally lol). He's generally very curious about everything and loves learning new things or seeing new places. Kendra (and Ravenna, too) taught him a lot including several languages and self defense but also respecting every creature as equal.

Most of the time he's a pretty chill dude who doesn't like conflict BUT he can't stand injustice, it's one of the very few things that enrage him (one time he 'accidentally' ran into a man who was after a painfully thin boy who stole a fruit from his stand so that he lost him in the crowd).

But since he was raised by Kendra and Ravenna who are Tenebris he didn't really have a lot of contact with humans so he never really learned like, societal expectations and such, only from watching humans when their travels led them through towns and such. For example, when Derian was scared about others seeing the two of them being intimate (like holding hands or slow dancing) he just at first didn't know that people could react to that in a bad way and then couldn't understand at all why they would, they're just two humans being in love ya know?? He's seen couples kiss in public before so why is it a problem when they do it? (He still doesn't get it but he knows that it makes Derian very anxious so he tries to adapt for his sake even though he hates it)

I feel like I've gotten a bit off track here so maybe it's time for me to stop xD Thank you so much for the ask!! 💙
