Known as the Waltz, Ebanierest Malfoy is a half-elf hunted residing in Taris at the Porfyra guildhouse.

## Personality

Though disgrunted at any mention of his old life, hunted name, or role as a craftsman for the front lines, Ebanierest is a joyous man of soft undertaking. He has serious moments, but frequently jokes. He also possesses great leadership skills.

## History

A lead craftsman who supported the frontlines, Ebanierest left without any mention of his intentions during the fracture. He decided to take up music to fill his time, throwing away his old life and eventually founding and leading the Porfyra guild for musicians in Taris many years later. But soon he'd see his old comrade, the Crimson, also enlist a guild, and decided to pass his leadership onto his closest ranking member. One day, he heard word of a odd baby left on the doorstep of the guild house and discovered that the child was a dragonborn, a race he hadn't seen since his new life. Knowing how dangerous a dragonborn was, he decided to test and see if they were innately evil, taking in the infant and raising him as his own. The guild named him Puhstramo, and he took his last name from Ebanierest, who also gave him the middle name "Darkspear", telling Puhstramo that he needn't tell anyone of this name for reasons unknown. Years later, Puhstramo had passed Ebanierest's test being a well-natured man of excellent musical talent. Ebanierest even decided to teach Puhstramo how to use ki and how to fight which he had excelled at. Knowing that keeping him sheltered in the back of the Porfyra guild house would be a sin, Ebanierest sent Puhstramo towards the Crimson, knowing that he's something truly special, and gifting him a lute of exceptional craftsmanship.

After seeing Helna and Puhstramo hurt, Ebanierest was furious with The Crimson for allowing them to be in true danger. He forced Puhstramo to come back to Porfyra with the intention of keeping him safe for the rest of his life. When Mai Everheart, Gruul Shagol, and Reddas Solidor came to get Puhstramo back, Ebanierest took the group to his quarters and asked each member to prove themselves. Gruul managed to land a strike on Ebanierest, Reddas gave Ebanierest a new perspective, Mai displayed her control of magic, and Puhstramo stressed how much he wanted to adventure. Ebanierest allowed the group to take his son, hugging him one last time before he left.
