Zeran Vey
Zeran Vey (a.k.a. The Fool)
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Zeran, even as a child, has been obsessed with learning about what lies outside Fenvalur Forest. As a result of this obsession Zeran has been labelled by the head of the Soraphei, Varin Arise, to be nothing short of a fool. While the people of Soraphei refuse to help Zeran in his endeavours, he is not considered to be an outcast, most of the villagers treat him no differently except for when he tries to learn about the outside world, earning him a nickname of The Fool. Zeran's mother Marin Vey, and father Tyran Vey live modest lives within the village, Marin collects berries, while Tyran is the village tailor. Zeran's parents while supportive of his passion, remain on the side of Varin, believing it is unwise to venture out of the village for too long, more so desiring Zeran to remain in the village as they do not wish to see him harmed or worse, dead. Zeran's closest and oldest friend Erin Naphei is perhaps the only Elf within Soraphei that actually supports him and also wishes to venture outside the forest for herself. Zeran and Erin have been friends for years, and both wish to explore the world, while Zeran is quite open about his desire to the other Elves, Erin keeps her desire a secret from most, only really opening up to Zeran. Their close friendship and shared desire to leave Soraphei leads to Erin helping to convince Varin that at the very least Zeran should be permitted to venture to a nearby town as his research could lead to benefits within the community, such as discovering useful materials or more food variety.
Education
Zeran as a child was educated in a small school within Soraphei Village, yet once he left, and even during those years at the school Zeran is self taught via the books he has read.
Employment
While officially Zeran is unemployed, Zeran will forever proclaim himself to be a researcher of the truths of the world, and argue with most that the position while not financially beneficial is largely beneficial to ones own wisdom and knowledge.

Progress Made In Spite Of Societal Cowardice
14th of Venitaestus 795 PB
Curse these foolish Elves. All claim to be wise and know the world beyond these trees, yet none seem to accept travelling outside beyond the forest they call home. How am I supposed to uncover the secrets of the world if those around me, who claim to be my peers and allies, refuse to let me research the outside lands? How can I possibly uncover the unseen truths of the world if I only have access to the knowledge of these cowardly reclusive Elves? Cowards they be, and cowards they remain. After years of arguing with these so called wise Elves I am finally able to travel outside the forest, though I am forbidden from travelling further from Donegrin. I wonder what would happen if I travelled further? How would they know? Regardless, tomorrow I shall set out to Donegrin, I shall finally see with my own two eyes what lies outside this forest. Maybe, just maybe I can figure out a way to convince these Elves to let me explore the world to acquire more knowledge and truths about the current world. Sapere aude.
