Outward Appearance

Kalesiar has a wrinkled face and a long white beard that he grew ever since he was in his early years. His eyes are blue and pure, and he often wears a hat or some other cover to hide his bald head.

He is rather tall for an old man, but he is also very agile for his years. His Dúnadan roots have made him live longer than usual Men do, so he doesn't hesitate to enter a battle if his help is needed.

Background

Born to Dúnedain parents in area surrounding Ost Forod, Kalesiar was often showing his interest in lore and knowledge. He learned how to read first letters when he was only two years old, but his parents did well to keep his knowledge of their origin somewhat limited. They chose not to reveal him his Dúnadan roots for the obvious reasons...

The servants of Angmar were sent out in the lands of former Arnor to seek and kill all that has any connection with the Dúnedain.  In fear for their safety, Kalesiar's parents lived a simple life, selling potions and healing salves to the local community and travellers. They taught him how to survive in wilderness for they knew that one day he may have to rely on his skills, as the times were dire and unpredictable. So right they were, that when Kalesiar was only ten years old, the group of specially trained assasins attacked the caravan that was travelling from Esteldin to the far lands of Dale... The caravan was formed by the Dúnedain of Esteldin in order to help some of the more important Dúnedain of the Ost Forod area to escape the incoming wrath of the servants of Sauron. 
In that horrifying event, Kalesiar was the only survivor, for he was small enough to remain hidden beneath the cloak of his father after he fell to the ground, stabbed by a poisonous blade of Angmar.
Kalesiar was of tough mind, not the type that would succumb to the terror he had witnessed. His surviving skills helped him stay alone in the wilderness for weeks, all until a hurried traveller, a ranger from Esteldin, didn't stumble upon him on the road to Dale one day. 

With the help of an unknown Dúnadan, Kalesiar was brought to a foster family in Dale, his 'new' father being a weaponsmith, and his step mother a house maiden. He was treated well, but he never felt like he belonged there... His heart had stayed in Evendim, and some years later, the desire to return to his home will prove to be strong enough that he will embark on a journey back... back to his roots.

Friends
He considers all of his kin members as friends, while people outside of the kin rarely earn his trust. Reama and Gualric can often be seen with him, while Leofan is his friend and ally.
Relatives
Kalesiar has lost contact with his relatives ever since he moved to Dale, back when he was just a child.
Rivals/Enemies
Kalesiar's enemies were often trying to make him either disappear or abandon Bree-land, but he never succumbed to their empty efforts. Now he is stronger than ever, and more powerful than all of his previous foes combined.
Loves
Kalesiar loves nature and all that comes from it. He also studies ancient lore and he collects various maps of all lands of Middle-Earth.
Hates
He hates liars, traitors and stalkers.
Motivation
To protect the heritage of the Dúnedain
Quotes
Loyalty cannot be bought, only through fairness it can be earned.
