Old Willow

"Sometimes if you wipe away the blood, you'll reveal the smile that is underneath." - Old Willow giving advice to a confused Marcus Sootbeard. 
Old Willow is the owner of a small pond on the plane of Elysium, and an amateur artist and philosopher. He met Marcus Sootbeard there when he had been planeshifted during battle. Old Willow gave him some cryptic advice before sending him back to the Material Plane. 
== History ==
Old Willow grew from a tiny sapling in on the shores of a great lake in the rolling fields of the plane Elysium. Called 'Old' even from a young age, on account of his large leafy beard, he has often pondered the nature of the cosmos - albeit with little understanding as his only company are the fish in his lake, who don't normally reply to him. 
He took up an interest in art and painting around 500 years ago after seeing a passing Eladrin creating impressive sketches of the landscape. However Old Willow moves very slowly and also had to craft his own brushes, paints and canvases; so in those 500 years has yet to finish a single piece. 
After meeting Marcus Sootbeard and helping him return home; Old Willow hopes to capture the dwarf's likeness on canvas and eventually gift him the painting - once it is finished in the next hundred years or so.
