Shanadar

Abandoned son of an elf and a nymph who left him on Japeth and Zandrine's doorstep at the same time Zandar was born. Has elven features with silver hair and gray eyes as an adult, and dusky hair as a child. Wears a moonstone medallion around his neck with his name inscribed in elven in it. A powerful magic-user whose unstable personality makes it difficult for others, save a few, to understand him.
