Description

Aan has solid red eyes and thick curly black hair that grows very fast. He has short black horns that blend in with his hair. He has freckles, and small fangs. He has a forked tail, but he has a kink in the lower end of this tail where it was broken and healed poorly. He has a lot of random little scars, the ones through his lip and eyebrow (both on the right side), are probably the most immediately obvious. His right hand was broken/smashed at some point in the past and never healed correctly, so his fingers are twisted and he can’t make a tight fist with it. This makes it hard for him to hold thin/narrow things in that hand, and even thicker things will make it sore over time. He’s left handed! If he wasn’t born that way, he is now.

Known History

About a year and a half ago, a Tielfing child was left, asleep, at one of the caravan wagons. He was severely undersocialized, and had no real grasp of common, let alone orcish. Through trial and error, they determined that he understood celestial and some infernal, but was not able to fully communicate his story. He clearly needed help and, perhaps more surprising considering his situation, seemed willing to accept it. Eventually, the family was able to piece together some things - it seems that he met someone who helped him, and they brought him to the caravan knowing that the orcs would take him in. Who exactly this person is is unclear, but its because of them that he understands Celestial. Aan just calls them the Stranger if he talks about it at all, but clearly this person left an impression, as he also collects and leaves around little gifts for them in 'shrines' he builds in places that they visit.

Aan was adopted into the family by Yvelda Oglaf. They called him Aan because it is one of the sounds that he made the most frequently, and people just started using it like a name, and it stuck before they could think of something else. Since then he has developed a deeper understanding of language and his working on his social skills. There's still lot of things he doesn't understand, and he is shy and nervous around strangers. However, He did agree to be in Brauni and Chlyde's band, though its not always clear that eh completely understands what's happening. They seem to appreciate his strange vocalizations and screaming though. Recently he has manifested some magical abilities, and his mother is trying to help him learn about magic.
