Sylthar Oakshade
the Duskdrift Elf
Named for the silver-grey oak that stood in the deep hollow before it was toppled by a storm, and the shadow it cast for centuries after.
Power
Windwraith — you can dissolve into a moving shadow on the wind, but only for the space of a held breath, and each time an acorn falls from your pocket.

You are carving your own name into the last oak leaf of autumn, slowly, so the tree remembers the shape. You have done this every year for six hundred years, and you have worn the leaf to a hair-thin lattice. You do not know why you keep carving — the tree already knows your name better than any blade can write.
