In short
Elian is the physical manifestation of death. The Creator made him after greed and anger gave birth to darkness and physical death, not to frighten, but to give people hope. What better way to ease the fear of the grave than to know death yourself? Unfortunately, very few saw him as they were meant, and Elian's form was distorted into something terrifying and evil. He rarely shows himself anymore...
Physically
Human
First impression is of a skeleton. Elian is slender to the point of unhealthiness - he has not a single ounce of extra fat on him. The only thing that seems to cover his bones is a layer of long, lithe muscles. His face is gaunt and sorrowful, his eyes large and expressive, traits he passed on strongly to his daughter Aster.
Height/build is extremely, unnaturally, thin and very tall; Elian stands at an impressive 6'6.
Complexion is pale, almost translucent, with a slight gray-blue tinge due to blood vessels showing through.
Face is long and gaunt, somewhat vulpine, but with a fine, carved quality. His cheeks are high and hollow beneath large, sightless eyes, colored milky white. This sorrowful face is framed by dark, shoulder-length red hair, poker straight and usually pulled back at the nape of Elian's neck.
Clothing usually consists of a long, silvery grey cloak (Elian, it seems, is eternally cold), pinned at the front with an ornate silver and ruby brooch in the shape of an eye. Underneath the cloak his clothing is simple more often than not: a loose, button-down snowy white shirt tucked into fitted black trousers, and a pair of shining black buckled boots. Elian wears no jewelry or other adornments besides his eye-shaped pin.
The rest concerns the supernatural. Elian, as already stated, is completely blind in his normal eyes. He sees with the wide, crimson eye set in his forehead - sees not only earthly things, but the spiritual realm as well. Departing souls are clearly visible to him and he knows, just by looking at someone, the day, hour and circumstances of their death. He's learned to tune that out though, as it's distracting and highly depressing. While Elian is ageless and immune to sicknesses, a blade through his heart will effectively banish him to purgatory for a time while his physical body is remade - this is the closest he will ever come to dying, and the reason that he does not carry any sort of weapon on his person. In fact, ironically, Elian himself cannot take life, only defend himself with very basic hand to hand combat. The one ability to hurt that Elian possesses is strictly mental; with a single touch, he can, quite literally, search your soul, bringing up painful or pleasurable memories at will that are as vivid as going back in time and actually reliving them. Without touch, he can still access those memories and feelings, but only he will see them. Elian can also completely block off his own mind - not even the most powerful psychic could ever break his defenses.
Anthro
None; while Elian can be in an anthro RP, he is not meant to be one himself.
Quad
Type is a gaunt looking stag.
Height/build is a good deal taller than most ordinary stags; Elian stands at approximately five feet at the shoulder. He is extremely thin and sickly looking, with his ribs protruding through his sleek fur. His antlers are jagged and seem broken and chipped in places. Despite this he carries a sort of sorrowful beauty, as if he wasn't meant to look as terrible as he does...
Colors seem to blend into the shadows around him. His fur is short and sleek with the smooth, watery texture of silk and colored a deep grey-purple. His tail is long and thick, a deep crimson.
Mentally
Elian's temper is as steady and constant as a metronome. He always speaks in this low, smooth voice; for most, it's quite soothing, and Elian was always the one called when his children were young to put them to bed. Yet some others sense a certain knowing in his voice, and they listen with suspicion, as though the everyday words are a warning.
As old as he is Elian cannot help but be extremely wise to the ways of people and the world around him. This character seems to see everything, right down to the most minute detail, yet despite this nothing will get his ire up. You can slap him in the face (though I doubt you'd ever be given the chance) and all he will do is stare at you with his piercing eyes as though taking the very measure of your soul. This is not to say he abides by being bullied - Elian is capable of physically defending himself and while petty offenses are easily forgotten, there are things he won't tolerate. And he will not hesitate to put the very fear of death into you.
Elian is somewhat guarded around strangers. He is very sensitive to how his appearance can horrify even the bravest men, and he hates this, so rarely will he mingle with ordinary humans. He knows how it was meant to be and quietly, privately, mourns the loss of the many friends he could have made had it all gone as it should have. Now his closest companion is his lover Layla, and of course, the rest of his family and the other spirits that haunt the place between life and death.
