| Kliff is a white dragonborn, standing at a massive 7' tall, with a broad build to match. Scars litter his opalescent white scales, reminders of battles long passed, along with two far cleaner ones going along the underside of his pecs. His ice blue eyes are set into his sharp skull, lined with spines and growths that almost resemble ice. Two large, backwards L shaped horns sit prominently on his brow, the right one broken at the midpoint. Teeth stick out from his mouth in jagged pattern, with one particularly nasty scar on his lip leaving his mouth in a permanent snarl. Spines continue down his back and along his tail, several sharp spikes growing out from the end. His underbelly is a lighter gray, but retains that slight opalescent quality like the rest of his scales. Long claws grow from his hands and feet, carefully maintained to a useful, but unobtrusive length. A close look at his face by those who know what look for would show that he's older than most adventurers, | Kliff is a white dragonborn, standing at a massive 7' tall, with a broad build to match.

| Being overly emotional or saying something truly meaningful was a rarity, reserved for only the most important people at the most precious of times. People would often die or go missing in the mountains. Sentiment was a dangerous thing, and a broken heart could kill just as swiftly as broken bones. Love was given, but in quiet ways, through gifts or actions. Speaking of love was a frightening process, and not done lightly. If Kliff ever does say something that borders on poetic, it's because he considers you worth the pain of loving. | Being overly emotional or saying something truly meaningful was a rarity, reserved for only the most important people at the most precious of times.

| + | Kliff grew up in a remote mountain village. He spent his entire life there, never leaving the mountain. He met his wife, Ekani, while she was traveling through the mountains and ended up staying in the village. They fell in love and lived a simple life. A man named [[Varruk]] who had been banished from the village for his crimes returned with a mercenary band. The mercenaries and Varruk slaughtered the entire town, Kliff only surviving because Ekani took a lethal blow for him. Kliff left the village, and as he struggled to make a new path and with a deep anger in his heart, he protected a family from bandits. During the fight, spirits of the townsfolk, including his wife, appeared, helping him and giving him a new purpose. He would become an adventurer, protecting people as he hunted down Varruk to get his vengeance. | ||

| Kliff was not always an adventurer. Few would believe it, but prior to his adventuring days, he lived a simple life in the mountains. High up in the frigid peaks was a difficult, but rewarding life in his village. To survive such harsh conditions, the people there had to work together to stay alive. Everyone helped to contribute, no job lesser or greater than any other. If it needing doing, it was important. Taking care of one another was a priority, and those who were selfish were often shunned from the community. One selfish act could doom them in the middle of a harsh winter, the stance was unfortunately necessary for survival. | Kliff was not always an adventurer.

| + | Kliff has gained a new outlook on life. His time outside of the Crooked Peaks had not been kind to him, and yet, he's managed to retain his gentle heart. Percy officially becomes a Rimeclaw, the pair of them living together in their shared home as a family. Lonnal, too, stays with them for a time, and takes an open invitation for mealtimes with him. In fact, so does each and every one of Kliff' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Kliff continues his good works, doing more now that he's able to dedicate himself full time to them. He helps wherever he is able, even outside of the temple and Academy. Whenever a friend needs him, he's there, though he refuses to go out adventuring anymore. There are others who can take his place. Kliff has no room in his life for violence or brutality anymore. After many nights spent praying to Eldath for peace, he's finally gotten his wish. Instead, Percy now takes up the mantle, stepping up and traveling all throughout Biomia being a " | ||

He will not be alone when his time comes, surrounded by people who love him, held in their embrace before he is embraced in the next life by people who have patiently waited for so many years to hold him again. | ||
