*"We may not be of the same blood but he is my brother, and we are family. He may cry easy but he is strong, I will find him. I have to."* -Lazuli about Araw

Araw is a young half-elven man that has not been seen by anyone in some years. He tragically passed away at the hands of Teller when he was just 10 years old. Lazuli, his adopted brother, has confirmed that he was successfully revived before they were separated and Kariah has noted as having spent many years together with him in the Feywild, but upon his departure of the plane he has not been seen since.

## Appearance

Though he hasn't been seen in some time, Kariah would note that Araw had grown into a 6'3" half-elven man with dark brown skin and chestnut brown hair that he keeps cut fairly short into an easily manageable style. His eyes are a patina green that have an ethereal quality to them. Kariah notes Araw has heavy scarring across his midsection, chest, and left arm. He would typically wear his guard's uniform.

## Personality

Araw's personality has not been explored yet. Not much is known about the current Araw.

Lazuli has mentioned that as a child Araw was a worrier and extremely vigilant about his surroundings. According to Lazuli, it was easy to bring Araw to tears, but he was an otherwise stoic child.

## History

Not much is known about Araw's history before being found by Andakas and Lazuli. The two came across him alone in a field, crying, while they were travelling when Araw was just 6-years-old. From that point on the trio traveled together with the two young boys becoming attendants to Andakas' shop; The Raven's Clutch.

While the trio was in Windrise, Araw met an untimely death as one of the victims of the Dragontooth Murders at the age of 10 while attending to the store alone. After which Andakas and Lazuli hid his body with the intention of reviving him when they could figure out how.

Araw was successfully revived, according to Lazuli, before they were separated. Sometime after this separation, Araw found himself in the Feywild, where he spent many years working for the Royal Guard. It's in this plane that he met Kariah, a woman who he grew to be quite close to in his years in the Feywild. At the age of 26 Araw decided it was time to leave the Feywild, telling Cariah that he had remembered some things about his past that he needed to find before heading out in search of those phantom memories.

## Relationships

### Lazuli Windfell

Lazuli considers Araw his brother and speaks about him with a fondness reserved only for the other boy he grew up with. Lazuli openly remarks that Araw is one of the most important people in his life and he is desperate to find him once more.

### Andakas Windfell

Though Andakas spoke callously and dismissively about Araw's death in Windrise when being questioned by the investigating mercenaries, Andakas' actions speak to a much deeper level of care for the boy by way of taking great measures to preserve and hide his body for later revival and even going so far as threatening violence and death upon those who discovered Araw's body.

### Kariah

Kariah seems to be romantically tied to Araw, noting their close relationship and her broken heart at his departure. They spent many years getting to know one another during his time in the Feywild and seem to have become lovers before Araw's departure from the plane.

## Trivia

* Araw is the only non-God character plot relevant to both the Doubting Faith and Starfall campaigns due to his intensely close relationships with both Lazuli and Kariah leading them both into searching for him.
