His features are delicate, with a soft jawline and a faint blush that adds warmth to his otherwise pale skin. He dresses in flowing garments reminiscent of robes from an older world, layered in soft, natural colours that ripple with his movements. The silhouette of his clothing, long sleeves, broad collars, and intricate sashes that wrap elegantly around his waist, blurs the lines of masculine and feminine, further obscuring any easy assumptions about his identity.
A figure of quiet grace, he moves with an unhurried elegance, his presence as soothing as a breeze. His manner and appearance invite curiosity, yet he seems entirely unbothered by it, wearing his androgyny like an unspoken invitation to see past labels. He responds to any pronoun with ease, rarely correcting anyone's assumptions, allowing the world to see him however it may.

Song is from the mountainous region surrounding Starlight City, from those who call themselves The Zephyrnn | The Wind-Blessed, a unique culture deeply intertwined with nature and the elements. Their people communicate in a melodic language based on whistling, one that captures the whispers of the wind and reflects their harmonious relationship with the environment. As a member of this lineage, Song has been steeped in the traditions of his people since childhood, learning the art of dance, song, and storytelling, all of which embody the spirit of the winds that bless them.
At the age of 25, those of the Zephyrnn embark on a sacred rite of passage known as the "Gathering of the Winds." It's a symbolic journey of growth, respect for nature, and spiritual enlightment. The rite requires the initiate to gather "five unique items" from across Charon, each symbolizing different aspects of life and learning. However, these items cannot be taken with force or cruelty; they must be gifted by nature or found in harmony with the environment.
Now 27, Song has spent the last two years on his quest, but his progress has been less than fruitful. With no items to return to his homeland, he feels the weight of expectation and the pull of his longing to experience the world more fully. The role he picked as a Chronicler has led him to immerse himself in the stories of others, meticulously recording their adventures, successes, and failures. Through his notes, he learns about the struggles and triumphs of those who came before him, hoping to glean wisdom from their journeys.

Song embodies the gentle spirit of his people. He is an unwavering pacifist, radiating a warmth and cheerfulness that often puts others at ease. His heart is open, and he believes in the intrinsic goodness of life, making him a beacon of hope for those around him. This cheerful disposition can sometimes lead to him being taken advantage of or overlooked, as he tends to prioritize the needs of others over his own.Despite his unwavering optimism, Song is deeply reflective, often pondering the interconnectedness of life. He approaches challenges with a belief that there is always a peaceful resolution. When faced with conflict or loss, he seeks to mitigate harm, using rituals and ceremonies to honour the spirits of those affected. Should he inadvertently cause harm, he feels the pain of it deeply and mourns for the loss, performing rituals to bring peace to their souls.
Song is driven by a desire to find beauty in the world, whether through gathering stories, experiencing nature, or forming connections with others. He approaches his adventures with a sense of wonder, always eager to learn and grow. His optimism often leads him to take on quests that others might shy away from, as he sees potential for growth even in the face of adversity.
