Ilan Mu

== Appearance ==
Ilan is a faun, more specifically of the deer variety. Instead of goat legs he has the slim legs of a deer. He is covered from the waist down in light brown fur speckled with white dots, the unmistakable pattern of his kindred species. His upper body is slim and lightly toned like a human boy his age, yet surprisingly hairless. Ilan has a finely shaped face, an upturned nose, small lips, wide pale eyes, and full brows. Peeking out from underneath his curls are the humble beginnings of antlers. A pair of large downturned ears enable him to pick up on twigs snapping several miles away.
Ilan favors soft and airy fabrics because most of his lower body is covered in fur. He likes to wear lighter colors, in the pastel range. A typical outfit would consider shorts and a vest or a blouse. He doesn't wear any shoes due to his hooved feet. His messenger bag is usually slung across his frame when he is traveling. Perhaps not part of his clothes but most likely to be found somewhere on him are a collection of floral wreaths he makes. He loops them through his small antlers and weaves them into his hair as decoration.

=== Personality: ===
 Ilan is a shy and withdrawn young faun. It is not that he does not like to be around others, just not for too long. He needs time by himself to recharge. Social interaction is at times difficult for him. It stems from the idea that no one accepts him for who he is, so by default he feels immediately disliked by most he meets. Ilan fails to see he is actually quite likeable, often described as a sweetheart. He would go to great lengths for his lovds ones, even step outside of his comfort zone to make them happy. He speaks when spoken to and is at all times incredibly polite and kind. It takes a while for him to open up, it could be said he's a late bloomer. When he's comfortable he shows his funny side and jokes around. He will share his passions with you and even some secrets. 
If in the right environment, surrounded by the right people Ilan is a serene individual, calm and patient. Sadly it doesn't take much for him to become anxious and nervous. He tries his best not to let it show on the outside, which often results in him getting oddly quiet. He is in fact trying to figure out how to remove himself from the situation as quickly as possible. This extends to survival. When it comes down to it Ilan is quick to flee, he recognizes his uselessness in battle, and if the odds are stacked against him he will run for the hills. 
Ilan at times is surprisingly clever and at other times incredibly dim. He knows his way around a forest but literally has no idea how to navigate himself in large cities, despite there being signs and shopkeepers who most definitely know directions. He can read and write, although instead of studying a serious topic he reads fairytale books and writes down notes for his music. He can definitely be funny in a childish and innocent kind of a way. He would be the kind of faun to put flowers on the head of an Orc if he wasn't afraid of them. Ilan rises early but his energy depletes as the day progresses. He needs a good amount of sleep otherwise he'll become annoying and sluggish. 
Ilan's innocence is endearing and his rose-tinted view of the world inspires a protectiveness in others around him. Luckily it isn't hard for him to make friends. Some may find his nature tiresome and annoying but there is more to him than meets the eye. Ilan definitely knows the world can be a cruel place. His firm belief in an impossibly good and fair world like that of his fairytales is a coping mechanism to deal with the hardships he faced in life.
