Second Generation Character
[ first: Aida Mòrsgor-Ama Ellwood / Valentin Azat Schnell ]

Physical Description: Arkyn has platinum blonde hair, like his twin sister, Zyva. Arkyn’s muscular but lithe physique comes from both an active wilderness lifestyle as well as a deeply physical personality. For example, he is known to challenge strangers to wrestle and he revels in daring physical feats. As he is a half-blood born from a non-magical mother, Niahm, and an absent wizarding father, magic has never been Arkyn's strong suit.

Mental Description: Arkyn is fiercely defensive of his sister, ambitious, and cares deeply for matters of pride.

Biography: The Skógrwight twins come from a remote island that is still pristine and mysterious. Similarly, Arkyn is a wild child, growing up with a natural education about the land, sea, and sky as well as all the lifeforms with which his family shares their harsh but beautiful environment.

First Instance of Magic: At age seven, Arkyn was picking his way along the coast one evening after a particularly fierce storm. He was interested in seeing the damage caused by its oceanic surge when, between the massive wooden splinters strewn across on the shore, he found a wounded bird. It was a petrel, and it had been struck by lighting before falling onto the rocks. Reflex drove Arkyn to lay his hands on the dying creature, and with the power of his compassion, the surrounding blood began to flow back into the bird’s battered body. He then hurried home with it to show his miracle to his sister, but unfortunately the bird still died shortly thereafter due to sepsis. Ever since, he began to see thestrals and feel an intoxicating tension between the tenacity and fragility of life.
