[VelKallor]

Vel Kallor, son of Rias and Virina Kallor, father a white mage, mother a master alchemist, late of the Guild in Uldah.

Born in the forests near the city of Gridania ( Virina detested Ishgard and wanted her son raised in peace, far from the eternal bloodshed of war ) , Vel trained at an early age in basic weaponskills, with his schooling alternating between mastery of basic magics, history, aether manipulation and herbalism.

His first tests with the Guild showed a nascent talent, but one that would not manifest itself properly until he was much older. Vel's aetheric skills were tested and assessed each year, the results being communicated to the Guild privately , as they sought to nurture his talents without intervention or interference.

( " I sense much of the healer's gift in him, but he must be allowed to grow as an acorn does to become a mighty oak, the Elements will speak when it is time" - E Sumi Yan )

Until then, his family was bid to continue his education and allow his abilities to grow. Vel had few friends, most of those being Wood Wailers, who accompanied him as he roamed. Even as young as he was, they too sensed his growing power.

Appearing at age 17 for a final assessment, E Sumi-Yan was satisfied with his progress, and sponsored his entry as a newly fledged Conjuror.
