Future Aspirations[edit]

For now, laying low with a group of adventurers until he can work out his next move.

Backstory[edit]

In this business you're only as good as your last job.

It doesn’t matter how or why a newborn Eladrin Ælf crossed over from the twilight realm of Feywild at the moment of the Great Erasure.

It doesn’t matter that the only clue to his lineage is an irrefutable ancestry with black dragons and the name Mor Gon, which translates to "black rock".

It doesn’t matter that he grew up in an orphanage, or on the streets, or running for the gangs, or that a magical birthright conferred by an exotic bloodline has shaped him into a deadly sorcerer who excels at disapearing problems for a price.

Only the job matters.

And when the job goes wrong, you're only as good as dead.
