| Outward Appearance |
To those of elven kin, Braigthir is most likely deemed a little unkempt. His eyes are as blue as the sea, skin as fair as the day time clouds and his silver hair is reminiscent of his ancestors among the Laegrim. His time is spent swimming in lakes and rivers, wayfaring through woodland and over hills. Nature is to him, like it is to his kin; an open book waiting to be read. He carries a wise and playful aura about him, often his mind wanders or his hands are busy with some rustic craft. His clothes are of greens and browns, telling of his love for the woodlands and forests of Arda.

Background
Braigthir's parents were of the Laiquendi (Green-elves) and they came to dwell with the Falathrim (Sea-Elves) who dwelled in Lindon after the destruction of Beleriand. His father Curantidir (Moon-Gazer) and mother, Eirienhên (Daisy Child) lived by the sea, and encouraged their son to follow the crafts of the Nandor, in using tools not of metal to forage and to read nature. They were deeply in love with the rivers and coast, but most of all the forests. Both parents aided the Grey Havens and the followers of Cirdan in ways they knew best, through foraging and watching the more quiet places close to their home.
Escapades into the woods and along the rivers were where Braigthir spent his time as he grew, seeking waterfalls and diving into pools. He became a keen worker of stone, and wood, and practiced archery with arrows he had fashioned himself. His learned wisdom and manners were deemed rustic by the Falathrim, though he always had been glad of his ancestry, and so never shook free from many of the ways of the Nandor.
