Mayleaf
Mayleaf is a member of the Plane Walkers, an ancient and immortal race with the extraordinary ability to effortlessly travel between different planes of existence. Despite his incredible heritage, Mayleaf was always seen as the runt of his family, outcast and underestimated by his kin. His family was tasked with the immense responsibility of protecting ValaMinas, the sacred tree of creation, but Mayleaf never felt truly accepted by them.
With a carefree attitude and a mischievous sense of humor, Mayleaf has learned to cope with his status as the family outcast by embracing his lighter side. He’s often cracking jokes—usually at the expense of others—and loves to get a rise out of those around him. While his humor can be biting, it’s also his way of masking the insecurities he carries as the runt of his family.
Despite his playful nature, Mayleaf carries a deep desire to prove himself worthy. To this end, he has set out on a journey of his own: to search for the legendary artifacts of Rillifane, the elven god of nature and creation, in hopes of showing his family that he is just as capable as the rest of them.
Physical Description
Identifying Characteristics
Mayleaf’s appearance is as unusual as his heritage. His skin is made of dark brown tree bark, rough and textured like the surface of an ancient tree. His hair is a wild assortment of green, brown, and orange leaves that change with the seasons, making him look like a walking embodiment of the forest. His most notable feature is his wide, floppy goblin-like ears.
His eyes are particularly striking—beady, glowing yellow orbs that seem to float in the pitch-black voids of his eye sockets. This eerie feature adds an otherworldly quality to his already unique appearance, often making those around him feel as though Mayleaf sees far more than he lets on. His gaze can be unsettling, especially when combined with his mischievous smirk.
His clothing is simple and ragged, a patchwork of loose rags that he wears with no concern for fashion or appearance. Mayleaf’s carefree attitude extends to his personal style, as he’s much more focused on his adventures than how he looks. The leaves in his hair often rustle when he moves, adding a quiet, natural sound to his presence.
Despite his small size, Mayleaf carries himself with a confidence and swagger that comes from his ability to travel effortlessly between planes, a skill that few beings can match. His small, wiry frame allows him to slip in and out of situations with ease, always staying one step ahead of trouble.
Special abilities
As a Plane Walker, Mayleaf possesses the extraordinary ability to travel effortlessly between planes of existence. This skill allows him to slip between worlds, evading danger and accessing places that are otherwise unreachable. While he’s still honing his abilities, Mayleaf’s talent for Plane Walking makes him a valuable asset on any quest that involves navigating the complex web of the multiverse.
In addition to his Plane Walking abilities, Mayleaf is naturally nimble and quick, able to escape sticky situations with ease. His small size makes him difficult to catch, and his experience as an outcast has taught him how to survive on his own. Mayleaf is also deeply connected to nature, able to sense the presence of plants and wildlife, a trait that stems from his family’s role as protectors of ValaMinas.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Mayleaf’s primary motivation is to prove his family wrong. As the runt and outcast, he’s always been overlooked and underestimated, and he’s determined to change that. While his carefree nature might suggest otherwise, Mayleaf takes his quest seriously and will go to great lengths to accomplish it.
Though Mayleaf loves to joke and laugh, he has a deep sense of loyalty.
Social
Mannerisms
Mayleaf’s carefree and mischievous nature defines much of his personality. He’s quick with a joke or a sarcastic remark, often teasing those around him in good fun—though sometimes his jests can sting. He enjoys making light of serious situations and is known for his ability to find humor in the darkest of moments. While his humor may come across as careless or rude, it’s part of his way of dealing with his feelings of inadequacy as the runt of his family.
Underneath his playful exterior, Mayleaf harbors a deep desire to prove himself. His journey to seek out Rillifane’s artifacts isn’t just an adventure for fun—it’s his way of showing his family that he’s just as capable and important as they are. His lighthearted nature masks his inner drive and determination, though he rarely lets anyone see how much their opinion of him truly affects him.
Mayleaf is fiercely independent, preferring to rely on his own wits and abilities rather than the help of others. He tends to reject authority and tradition, preferring to follow his own path and play by his own rules. This rebellious streak, combined with his Plane Walking abilities, makes him an unpredictable companion or adversary.
