Selyf is a player character in Forgotten Indigo, played by Yam.

A quiet, studious little bird hailing from a small village to the north, Selyf Auriel is never seen wearing any less than three layers of clothing. He is extremely sensitive to temperature drops, often complaining of the cold and burrowing into his feathers.

As well, Selyf is rarely caught without some kind of tome on his person, be it a thick historical volume or a lighter, more frivolous read. Despite his cautious nature, he has a particular affection for horror literature.

## Basic Information

### Appearance

Selyf is a rather quiet figure with pale white skin and tousled, speckled feathers on his head for hair. He has a ruff of smaller, more downy feathers around his neck, and black markings around his eyes and nose. He is oftentimes seen wearing layers of sweaters and other warm articles of clothing in light, neutral colors. On his hands, his nails are long and pointed like claws.

### Backstory

Selyf is one of the few people that got accepted to the University from far away from the city. Taking a train from his little hometown called Nest, he now attends classes in archaeological research (area of expertise undeclared).

## Relationships

### Bedel

Selyf met Bedel on his way to Indigo, quickly becoming enamored with his work in the field of archaeology. He respects Ilmen quite a lot, and the man revels in his company. Bedel seems to have a vested interest in his wellbeing.

### Orobas

Upon arriving on the Ilmen investigation, Orobas quickly gained a vested interest in Selyf. After saving him from a strange attack from the supernatural, that interest quickly shifted into full-blown curiosity after Selyf made a powerful display of power he did not know he had. The two often share light-hearted sassy remarks between each other, a bit strange from the usually-anxious Selyf, but they genuinely enjoy each other's company.

### Minor

* **Hyle**: The two met briefly on Selyf's journey to Indigo, and they bonded over strange artifacts before he quickly realized they *might* be graverobbing. Hyle seemed unbothered by this.
* **Dodge**: Dodge helped Selyf have a peaceful train ride to Indigo, and offered some very helpful information on how to stay safe on his trip.
