Eliam

"Save it for the towns, lad. No privacy out here and I'm not interested in listenin'."

Eliam Westmonte is the youngest son of the Westmonte family of Glenhaven. His family is notable for having founded the Westmonte Shipping Company, which they still maintain control of today. He grew up fairly wealthy, however, he was disowned from his family shortly before his 20th birthday.

His arcane device is a bow. He has healing and fire magic, but was never formally taught either, preferring to be outside or socializing instead of studying. He can sing well, and claims to have some experience with musical instruments. He has some familiarity with boats, having been at least taught the basics given the family business.

Personality
Eliam was raised in the town of Glenhaven. As he got older, he realized that between his family's money and prestige, and his own charisma, he was practically immune to any consequences of his actions. Soon he was openly causing trouble in town, resorting to bribery or mentioning his family name if anyone tried to stop him, much to his family's embarrassment. Before long, he had become infamous around town, particularly in the bars he tended to frequent.

He is cheerful and talkative, but tends to lie to, manipulate, or flirt with strangers. He is quick to trust and underestimate others, and genuinely wants to help and be liked by those he considers friends. He is excited about being a Child of the Maker, and hopes to use his abilities to prove himself to his family and win back their favor.

Skills
Eliam has a bow, but mainly relies on magic while in combat. His skill with a bow was presumably gained from experience with hunting.

He enjoys talking with people, often trying to make conversation with those he meets. He is something of an attempted womanizer, though he's rarely successful, especially after losing access to his family's money and prestige. He prides himself on being an adept liar, able to talk his way out of most situations.

He is a Child of the Maker, specializing in Aether. He has had trouble understanding exactly how to take advantage of his element in situations. So far, his powers have manifested in the following ways:
 * He can disrupt people's access to their own aether, blocking their casting
 * He can negate the effects of magic on a target, making them immune to spells
 * He can boost other people's magic, making their magic significantly more effective
 * He can sense aether in the air, and remotely find magic items or areas
