    [​IMG]
    Despite having spend a long time in a dark cave, hidden from any sunligh, Leskar has a naturally tan skin, dotted with freckles. He appears like a young, handsome Hylian man with a tall and muscular but slender build. His face is angular, with a straight nose, sharp cheekbones and a strong jaw. The Fairy's eyes are olive green. Once, the one thing that truly set him apart from Hylians was a pair of extra arms right underneath the other, though a meeting with a certain trickster entity has resulted in Leskar losing this second pair, leaving only two raw-looking scabs. In return, he gained the power of flight, granted by two mysterious orbs of light that emerge from the wounds at will.

    Not being one to particularly care much for his appearance, Leskar's red hair is usually quite messy, though kept short and brushed backwards to avoid falling into his eyes. It has a natural springiness to it, possibly part of his Fairy origins. His lack of interest in appearance is also reflected by his clothing. At some point, the robe he wears was an impressive and beautiful piece of tailoring, made of a rich vibrant silk and adorned with intricate embroidery. But sheer age has faded the colours, and the embroidery, depicting various plant motifs, has become threadbare or loose in places. It was once given by one of the visitors to Leskar's fountain, grateful for a boon the Fairy had granted, and he still wears it today. Partially out of nostalgia, and partially because no one has given him anything else. Leskar is still used to receiving gifts in tribute, having to buy his own clothing is too much for his pride, and with his lessened magic powers he seems incapable of producing a complete outfit for himself through magical means.

    Personality:
    Having missed centuries of changes in society, Leskar's ways and views on the world come across as archaic to many. His sense of justice, while always strong, is still stuck in the past, along with what he considers to be appropriate punishments. It leads him to react harshly to those he percieves to be criminals, even if what they did would no longer be considered a crime in today's society anymore.

    The Fairy is still used to being well-known amongst the people, and is repeatedly insulted and offended when people do not know him- due to his long slumber, the populace has forgotten him completely, or percieves him to be some vague mythical figure from folk tales. The fact Leskar tends to downright demand respect from others leads to most people not wanting to know him. He has a hard time dealing with the fact he has faded in obscurity, eager to make people remember him again and retake his position as Great Fairy, as well as recover the powers he lost during his long slumber.

    Face-to-face, Leskar comes off as a proud and aloof individual, short-tempered and set in his ways. He is not fond of people clinging to him or begging for favours without offering anything in return, which is why he used to hide his extra arms underneath a heavy cloak. While he takes kindly to people who respect him, and bears deep grudges against those who do not, Leskar is surprisingly neutral in passing judgement. Unless his short-temper got the better of him and caused him to take impulsive actions.

    Backstory:
    How exactly Leskar came into being, no one knows for sure, even the Fairy himself. It is assumed he originated from a fountain on the Eastern Shore, having transcended from a normal Fairy into a Great Fairy.

    Long ago, his fountain was frequently visited by people from nearby settlements, begging for favours, blessings and advice. Leskar's duty ranged from healing the sick and wounded, to blessing newborn children and listening to prayers for a bountiful harvest. Aside from the healing, not particular things he had any influence over. But the townspeople came to the Fairy all the same, as they knew him to be a being of great magical prowess. Oddly, the advice the people most often sought from Leskar was that in solving disputes, or what punishment a criminal should receive. Leskar, fueled by a Great Fairy's innate desire to guide and help, aided the people to the best of his abilities. Slowly, his fountain became known as a place of justice, with the Fairy presiding over any case that was brought to him. Whether it was farmers arguing over whose sheep could graze on which pastures, cases of thievery or murder, Leskar was the one people looked to and trusted to come to a just decision. It was what he did best, his magical power never having been as great as that of other Fairies, and neither was it of particular interest to him. Justice was what Leskar lived for. It was what people asked of him, and his instincts prompted him to guide and aid them. Though it was clear that Leskar valued justice far more than the lives of the people that came to him, not letting his judgement be swayed by sentiment.

    But over time, people sought him out less and less frequently. The small villages emptied as people moved to the bigger cities, with their fancy buildings and sturdy walls. Those that did remain were often too old to make the journey to Leskar's fountain. As the population dwindled, so did the number of conflicts and crimes. Not to mention rumours of a vengeful creature living near the shore, drowning anyone who dared to do wrong, served as an excellent deterrant to any thief or charlatan with their eye on the remaining villagers. Especially since the guards in the cities were far less hell-bent on retribution, sometimes even looking the other way for the right price. Eventually, after fading mostly to just a rumour and a legend, Leskar was forgotten, falling into a deep slumber when no one came to him. During a vicious storm, the entrance to his fountain was blocked off by a landslide.

    For ages, the Fairy slept, powers dwindling from disuse. When Ganon razed the land and brought chaos to Hyrule, the Fairy stirred in his sleep, disturbed by the dark powers raging across the land. But it was not enough to wake him. It was only when the entrance to his fountain was uncovered by chance, that Leskar awoke to a sound he had not heard for ages. The sound of footsteps. While the visitor quickly fled as soon as they noticed a presence in the fountain, Leskar found himself awake, and in a world drastically different from the one he knew.

    He emerged from his fountain, discovering he had lost most of his powers during his long slumber. Now awake once more, Leskar has set out to regain what was lost, bring justice, and announce his return to the people, hoping to rise to prominence once again.

    Roleplaying History:
    The Holiday Moblin (2014):
    While venturing out in a Hyrule foreign to him, Leskar was witness to a rather peculiar sight; a beast flying a sled through the winter skies known as the Holiday Moblin. For reasons unknown, the creature pelted the Fairy with valuables before flying off, cackling to the world about something secret. Leskar was not appreciative of the Moblin's lack of respect.

    Encounter with the Twister: During his travels, Leskar came across a deserted Fairy Fountain, it's guardian long vanished. In their place, he found a faceless child, who offered him a powerful boon in return for a 'treasure'. Leskar sacrificed one pair of arms, losing them in a way he would rather forget, but was granted the power of flight, stronger than he had even before his slumber.

    Holiday Moblin (2019/2020): Gained Octo Ring & Water Walking (Communal) + 50 rupees
    Holiday Moblin 2022: +20 rupees & pure water
    Holiday Moblin 2023/24: +10 rupees & sobriety
