Whether that is his friends and family, his clan, or the entire world, Theron will always put himself in danger before allowing even the merest hint of it to threaten others. His way of life and training instilled in him the desire and indeed the near-compulsion to protect others, always before oneself. Unless the bond is broken by another's actions, his friendship is a bond that is adamantine, his loyalty everlasting. He is a man of deep feeling - some hidden, some laid bare - and possessed of an unfailing kindness. But if one continues to be around him, it becomes obvious that is far from the truth. Theron is a man that, upon first meeting him, one might consider stoic, even grim. The others are the puncture marks left by arrows: two he received when he and Alistair were overwhelmed in the Tower of Ishal, the other three he willingly took to protect Morrigan during an ambush. The first is a trio of claw-marks, wrapped around his right side, a courtesy left by a bereskarn on the day his life changed. He does, however, carry a few more serious wounds. Most are minor things, thin as spiderwebs, just the inevitable cuts and nicks caused by rushing through thick undergrowth in the wild places of the world. He also possesses a variety of scars that mark his suntanned skin. Upon reaching his majority, Theron received his vallaslin, which he took in honour of Andruil (NOT June, thank you Inquisition). He possesses long black hair and piercing grey eyes that can be as soft as a cloud, or as hard as steel. Having lived in the wilds all his life, Theron grew tall (for an elf) and strong, though still possessing the litheness of his people (basically he's still a DA:O elf, rather than the madness that became the elf-bodies in 2 and Inquisition). That day, events were set in motion that would one day shake the foundations of Thedas.

That all changed when he and his friend Tamlen found a magic mirror in an ancient ruin. The orphaned child of Clan Sabrae's Keeper and a huntress of repute, Theron's life among the wandering Dalish elves was never easy.
