Zyer Bruin

==Physical Description==
===Elven form===
Zyer seldom appears to be in a hurry: be it moving from one place to another or lighting his pipe, he does it slowly. When conversing, Zyer either takes time to think his answers carefully through, or takes his time to understand what's being said.Enormous in every aspect, Zyer is far taller and far broader than most kaldorei men. Such mass as he possesses would be impossible to move around with much grace, and so it is: Zyer's movement is not only slow, it's quite clumsy by elven standards. To human eye there may be some suaveness, but compared to most elves, Zyer moves like a rusty machine. Yet when standing still, proud and tall, with straight posture and head held high like he usually is, he can still be quite imposing sight.Zyers visage is marked by age and war. His face is already furrowing, but he has not yet lost all his handsome aspects to the waning years, even though his nose looks like it has been broken often. His short beard and moustache are tidily trimmed, and his black-blue hair well groomed. He bears several battle scars, but the most notable one runs across the side of his face: it resembles beastly claw marks, and whatever maimed him, took his eye with it. The eye is covered by a patch, while the other glows with dimning amber. Should his back be uncovered, one can find it full of scars to the extent it's nearly nothing but scar tissue there.
===Feline form===
The clumsiness of Zyers movement is gone, what remains is a well-formed mass of muscles of an enormous feline beast, highlighted by its shining black-blue fur, moving like liquid shadow, graceful and quiet. The cat reflects well Zyers elven form: it's so large it resembles more a rideable sabercat than a regular big cat, it also lacks any typical druidic adornments, making it easy to mistake it for a wild nightsaber. Like its elven form, the panther is missing its other eye. A scar resembling claw marks runs across the side of its face, having ripped its lip, leaving it with permanent one-sided snarl. It's back is covered in scars as well, partially hidden beneath the fur.
==Background==
Zyer was born to a middle-class house of Heartwood during the late days of Queen Aszhara's reign, named by his mother's line. Zyer was born with amber eyes, and was expected a lot of success in the magical arts.
Before the First Sundering Zyer used to be a sorcerer of the Moonguard. After the War of the Ancients and prohibition of magic among the Kaldorei, Zyer attempted to adapt to the path of druidism, following the example of Malfurion Stormrage as did many other elven males. However, he lacked the patience to learn druidism then, and became a ranger, both a skilled archer and fighter in close quarters, for he already possessed good martial skills from his time in the Moonguard.
In the newly founded Kaldorei army, he rose up in ranks along the years, eventually leading his own squad of archers, and trained new young archers. Zyer, now adapting the surname Bruin, was described as rigid and demanding, but fair leader.
Zyer had lived in the Sardor Isle, off coast of Feralas, after the First Sundering, but after having gone missing in his own travels for some years, he settled in Astranaar of Ashenvale, where he officially resides to this day, although he travels a lot.
Zyer has recently retired from the position of Ranger-General. In his old days he has finally gathered the patience required to thrive as a druid, and has adapted to the path of the Claw. He has also taken a student under his wing, thero'san Fingon Wolfsgrace, child of his old friend, while still learning druidism himself.
