Haldir would have to stop staring. Alistair was right in that sense for the sensitivity of the human race could not be underestimated. And he really did not want to start what they would call, a bar fight tonight. He was not here for that, but nor was he here to have fun. He was here merely due to the fact that there was no one else to go, and that this was some sort of social protocoyl. Oh well. Every seemed to have consumed too much alcohol to notice that he may look a bit out of place. If anyone came to him, he would just do what he always did and pretend like he does not speak English.
He turned his gaze forward, looking at Alistair. Such barbarism. He commented, as if Alistair would not have already taken notice. Anyone who was sober would have taken notice of the foolishness dominating this room. What was the point of this? He would never understand. Do you usually attend places such as this? His comment was not meant to sound judgmental, even if his previous one was. Alistair did not strike him as a crazy, go out and act like an idiot, type of person. Of course, he did not know the man well enough to make specific assessments of his character and what he did to pass the time. |

Humans. They were absolutely despicable. The way they socialized, their lack of hygiene, their dishonesty, greed, rudeness....really, Haldir was not a fan. And for him to converse in such a large group of them was not his most favorite pass time. But alas, they were here in Gwent and there was not much else to do, especially if he wanted to maintain a close distance to his Queen which was really the only reason he was currently out of the comfort of Mabon at this moment.
He walked into a tavern alongside Alistair while Dayton was escorted Maeve to her room. He was dressed in casual clothing, with a long red cape as there was no need to dress in his armor tonight. The front of his hair was braided back, hiding the tip of his ears while the rest fell straight, past his shoulders. Haldir paused in the doorway, looking at the sight in front of him. It was as if every judgment he had about humans was instantly proven upon taking one look at this crowd. They were loud, boisterous animals. No doubt alcohol was a factor in their uncouth behavior....but still. They were weak minded and looked ridiculous.
The only one he seemed to be able to develop a tolerance for was Alistair. And even then it had initially only been because the man had saved his life. Haldir may have pride but he was not one to ignore the efforts Alistair had taken to save him when they were strangers. Since then, despite their infrequent encounters, the druid was definitely someone`s company Haldir did not mind terribly being in. He regarded him as a closer friend than he admitted, for neither of them were sentimental people so there was no need to vocalize this unexpected friendship.
Seeing an empty table, Haldir began to walk towards it. He moved with grace and poise, in perfect posture with his chin slightly raised...this grace was clearly lacking in the room, but Haldir would never lower himself to their barbaric ways. He took a seat and though he may have looked at ease, he was completely uncomfortable. His expression was frozen in an almost stern look with subtle disgust only noticeable if someone was looking closely enough at him. His eyes scanned the room, very slightly shaking his head in disapproval.

Haldir ~ Healer of the Realm ~ [/size][/color][/center] ~ Warrior of Mabon ~  | ~ • ~ | Character Basics | ~ • ~ |
.:Name of Character:. Haldir
.:Nick Name:. None
.:Age:. Physically has the appearance of 31
.:Status:. Healer and Warrior
| ~ • ~ | Appearance | ~ • ~ |
.:Physical Appearance:. Haldir has fair, light skin, and large blue eyes. His hair is blond, falling past his shoulders and always remains pin straight. Sometimes he clips it back, but when he travels with Maeve he leaves it lose to hide his pointed ears, a common physical trait of all faeries. He has a bit of a muscular and wider build as he must be physically fit to fight. He usually wears armor when he is outside of Mabon, but not wanting to immediately pose as a threat, he covers it with a large cloak or cape. Within Mabon, since there is usually no need for violence, he wears more casual clothing, usually a long robe or something else native to the realm. He walks with very straight posture, having his chin up a bit making him appear to be very proper, and perhaps a bit stuck up.
.:Height:. 5"11
.:Portrayed by:. Craig Parker
| ~ • ~ | Personality | ~ • ~ |
.:Personality:. Haldir has a bit of a more serious personality. He is completely comfortable with other faeries, however has very different opinions when it comes to humans. He does not like asking them for help, or seeking aid from them, or anyone for that matter, for he feels that they can do nothing and that the faeries will be able to survive on their own. He does not have the best sense of humor and does not crack that many jokes, giving him a more serious persona. He does not display all that much emotion, though it is usually clear that he is more at ease with his own kind than when he is out of his realm. Outside Mabon, to avoid conversing with humans, he usually pretends that he can not speak English. He just maintains a stern and serious expression while he is silently irritated.
He is a man of intellect displaying vast knowledge about the world, both the world of magic and the human world. He is very protective over his own kind and loyal and obedient to those he serves and cares for. He is not one to over display his emotions, and definitely is not a touchy feely kind of person, often not hugging or showing any affection towards others in public.
.:Strengths:.
[/color] Excellent Warrior[/li][li][/color] Very intelligent [/li][li][/color] Protective and honorable[/li][/ul] .:Weaknesses:.[/color] Has trouble asking for help[/li][li][/color] Sometimes too serious [/li][li][/color] Has a more cynical point of view towards humans[/li][/ul] .:Magic Abilities:. Haldir possess the general magical abilities of a faery, however each faery possesses one unique gift and his is the power to heal. It is true that all of them have this ability, however his is the strongest in the realm. When a faery can not heal another, whether it be another faery, human or any other kind of magical being, Haldir can often do this. He has mastered his gift and is considered the Healer of Mabon. .:Special Skills:. Apart from his magical abilities he is a gifted warrior. Usually violence is not the means in which they solve things, however he has trained to fight, a master of swordsmanship and archery as these two are his weapons of choice. He has built an army within Mabon and only leads it when it is imperative, for his role as a Healer is more important than his role as a general and leader of the army. .:Accents:. Soft English accent, has a bit of a deep voice and speaks with great articulation| ~ • ~ | History | ~ • ~ | .:Birthplace:. Mabon .:Occupation:. Healer of the Realm, Warrior of Mabon .:Current Location of Residence:. Mabon, often travels with Maeve to offer protection and in case she gets severely injured.:History:. Haldir was born and raised in Mabon in a comfortable, luxurious lifestyle. He was married and lived a happy, ordinary life. Until things took a drastic turn. One day, a group of faeries ventured out of the realm to the human world to gather some things and just explore the land. This was not uncommon for them to do so, and Haldir's wife often accomponied this group of traveling faeries. However this time, it ended very differently.
The timing was terrible, as it was when the Great Purge took place. The group of faeries were captured and killed, Haldir's wife included. This event made him very bitter and angry towards humans. While he was not particularly attached to them before, this only strengthened that distance. He does not believe that they are the answer to the survival of his race, nor does he think there is any hope for there to be peace between his kind and humans. Though this view conflicts with his Queen, he still travels with her, offering her physical protection and the ability to heal her if any harm comes to her. He makes no secret of his opposing views but also does not take action against his Queen or diminishes the hope of his realm. He is usually back and forth between Mabon and the human world, carrying a sword, bow and arrow and his magical ability to heal others with him.[/blockquote] |
