## **Description**

He wears mostly a mix of purples and violets with pieces of brown leather, a Venr'in clan tabard with a crescent moon on the front and is usually seen with his violet cloak which was hand crafted by his grandmother.

### **Personality**

Elijah Nox is an awkward, sensitive introvert that has trouble fitting in to an unknown society, and prefers to keep to himself most of the time, he can come across shy, but he is kind and most of the time well mannered. He can be too hard on himself and apply too much pressure inwardly, becoming easily stressed.

## **History**

### **Origin**

Elijah Nox was born into one of the five ancient Venr'in Clans, at a very young age his mother left for unknown reasons from the clan leaving him in the care of his grandmother. Elijah struggled with his speech along with his abilities for he found it hard to focus, when he was around 8 years old Elijah was given an old tome from his grandmother Breana Noxorius, it was a resource of learning and a blank canvas for him to help imagine and create his illusions through creativity. Before long he was swiftly placed under training to learn and practice his variant abilities, although it took him quite some time he managed to learn the ancient runic language of Dathrian and cast his first illusion when he wrote on a blank page in the tome he received. At the age of 15 he failed a coming of age trial, but decided not to retry next year.

## **Relationships**

#### **Jester (James Samuel)**

The relationship between Elijah and Jester is that of a mentor and student. When Jester and Cipher offered for Elijah to join in on their team and live at their house, Elijah was somewhat creeped out by Jester's appearance, overtime he got used to it. After some time Elijah explained that he possesses some magical capabilities but he only knows a small amount, Jester realising that he might be able to help believes that his natural ability of Transmutation is very similar. Both of them respect each other.

#### **Cipher (Alexander Charkov)**

Elijah does not understand technology so when he first met Cipher and got to know him at the Suits of Freedom Mansion he was a little overwhelmed with all of his technology in his laboratory, the Venr'in clans also teach that modern technology is dangerous and should be avoided, therefore it made Elijah uncomfortable. Cipher has tried helping Elijah understand some science and the two have gotten along well.

#### **Thunder (Thomas Clark)**

Elijah and Thomas originally had a very rocky relationship when Thomas first showed up at the Suits of Freedom Mansion as Thomas was very obnoxious towards the team after being offered to stay at the mansion. Thomas consistently poked fun at Elijah due to his very "Goody-Two Shoes" attitude. The two despite having two very differing personalities are on some level very similar in other ways, they both share troubles with growth of their abilities and have had to leave their old family, it has taken them some time to realise this.
