Description
Shorter for a charr at 5'4, Vars keeps his outfit simple with layered wraps to make him appear bulkier, along with long main kept loose. His black and sandy blonde pelt is meticulously cleaned as Vars has grown to dislike his fur and mane having dirt and oil of any kind in it. His horns curl back away from his head and back along his neck. Hooded green eyes make him appear asleep or uninterested most of the time

Demeanor
At first encounter many people mistake Var's aloof nature for frustration or anger. However his inner mind is that of a jokester and a very compassionate soul. Vars tries to be very observant of those around him and looks for those being left out. While he lacks the confidence to openly approach them, he tends to form "begrudging" friendships with them over time.

Early Life
Vars' parents were members of the flame legion. His sire was a shaman of the flame whom his dame feared. In a bid for a better life she attempted to defect. Escaping in the dead of night secured her escape however her leg was badly hurt. Finally being found by legion team she was escorted back to the citadel and attempted to care for her cub. Vars was not allowed to join a fahrar and instead learned his skills under anyone willing to put up with a petulant cub amongst the Gladium.

Adolescence
As he grew, Vars found that he had a talent for creating illusions. He used this generally to distract or confuse larger charr that would try and get the better of the smaller male for whatever he might have in his pockets. Mostly working odd jobs hauling scrap or retrieving arrows and target motor shells.

Adulthood
Passed over for a warband, Vars had become a common sight in training grounds if only because he tried to make himself useful. Having the ability to create illusions allowed for trainee ranged fighters to have moving targets that could change tactics on a dime. Though this just tended to make him the butt of many jokes as a training dummy. Which in turn earned his resentment towards legions and warbands in general.

Present Day
During a training day he had been caught up in an attack by ghosts rushing an iron legion outpost. The legion members having pulled out in a vehicle leaving Vars to catch up. He was saved by Zaeri Brindleboom. Whom was on her way to support the retreating legions. Having fought off the ghostly Ascalonians together. They decided to head out together to find somewhere that Vars would feel more at home.

Relationships Within the Stray
Having assisted with building up Shadowprey village Vars spent most of his time working as a guard and helping build up the wards that kept the nature of the surrounding area at bay. Having felt unfulfilled in that task Vars then decided to sign up with the Sparhawk shipping company putting forward as a general laborer. Very recently he was approached by the shade warband which he joined, happy to be part of Charr society that he had missed out on.

Trivia
Though a mesmer of note Vars is very easily exhausted by making large illusions. He has a much easier time making many smaller illusions with surprising complexity. He is also quite adept with making things out of cloth. Though no training in tailoring.
