Balik Erinar

Balik is a dark-skinned elf from The Mithril Isles. His skill with a spear is good but the real power behind his fighting prowess is the speed with which he slashes and strikes, both with the bladed spear tip and with his hands and feet. 
=== Physical Description ===
This tall, dark-skinned elf is lean and toned; he looks to be in his mid thirties but is closer to 120. He rarely wears shoes, revealing his incredibly calloused feet and hands. He wears a long bow strung over his back and a spear wrapped in well weathered leather is by his side. The spear that he uses has an abnormally long blade-like tip allowing it to slash as well as pierce. This works well with Balik's fighting style, which is based on the style of the Mithril Isles. 
=== Relationships ===
Balik tends to steer clear of most people, especially of other Elves, though he has a few friends within House Deneith with whom he does have slightly longer conversations and even, very rarely, will join with in social activities. Balik often travels to Black Needle but keeps very quiet as to exactly why. 
=== Affiliated Groups, Organisations, or Places ===
Balik works as a hired Mercenary for House Deneith. 
=== History ===
Balik often receives questions about his life back in the Mithril Isles but either refuses to answer the questions outright or, when he is feeling more diplomatic, sidesteps them with trained ease. Since coming to Old Vashton, he has lived a very modest life in Respite District even though he is frequently requested as a Lone Guard escort, a job which always pays well, filling the niche of people wanting skilled guards but not being able to afford more than one. 
=== Party interaction ===
Balik was hired by the party to join them and Wrend and Talni as they move to The Sun Inn the Sky Inn.
