Summary:
Jos'iah's hails from the elvish city of Haldamar, or "The Hidden Home". No one really knows where it lies for it is tucked away by secrecy and magic. For countless generations, the sun elves of Haldamar have isolated themselves from the outside world. Many surmise it was because of a great plague or encroaching evil. Many more believe that the other races are just too impure and lowly to mingle with their kind. Those that succumb to wanderlust and leave the city's gates are forever banished. The location of their home erased from their mind's eye.
Like most of his peers, Jos'iah spends many of his years on the studying a multitude of disciplines such as archery, swordsmanship, lore, arts, music, and magic. (When you live as long as elves do, you become skilled at many things.) He was more adept at learning that his contemporaries however and was chosen to study under the great Master-Teacher Lenwë. Lenwë is known for his mastery of arcane illusions and Jos'iah has followed in his footsteps. Being the resourceful as he is, Jos'iah has begun to incorporate the mundane application of hand sleights and misdirection to complement his illusions. He has even begun to delve into the manipulation of the shadows to further augment his art.
Jos'iah finds himself fortunate to be the pupil of such a kind, wise, and accomplished Master but he has been stricken by a new curiosity. He has just begun his study on the races and has found himself curious about them. Numerous tomes and scrolls about the hardy dwarves, industrious humans, and blood-thirsty orcs have piqued his interest. At some point, he realized that tomes can only reveal so much. He wanted to experience the outside world for himself. Unwilling to be banished, he "borrowed" his master's teleportation stone and found himself in Sundren.
He has found it to be a place of wonder and filled with the many things he has read about. His newfound experiences reveal so much more than the scrolls and tomes ever could. He has even found himself on adventures with halflings, humans, and half-orcs! And then he realized, he has been struck by wanderlust!
Still unwilling to be banished but even more unwilling for Sundren to fade into memory, Jos'iah frequently "borrows" his Master's teleportation stone. In order not to be found out, he devised a clever combination of mundane trickery and arcane cantrips to alert him whenever his Master comes calling while he is away. And when he does, Jos'iah apologizes to those he is with and teleports himself back home before his Master finds out. Lenwë is none the wiser of his star pupil's exploits... or is he?
