Anly'eth

No real records seem to be all that interesting concerning Anly'eth before joining the army as a battlemage and being sent to the Shifting woods.

The Shifting woods
It was hard to discern the effects the woods had on the elven expedition, until an idea came. What if a sacrifice of a few could save the lives of many? After all, they would surely understand, wouldn't they? These and many other thoughts raced through Anly'eth's head as he mixed the strange new magic with supplies of his fellows for the first time. Excitement mixed with fear and feeling of guilt gripped him all the time, until...the results have arrived. Afflicted elves suffering mental degradation, headaches and other symptoms (few deaths included). Yet he couldn't stop now, could he? He owed it to the victims, no, subjects, he chose. And so, the experiments continued, new magic being added to their rations as seen fit. Slowly their "suffering" started to lose its meaning to him. They already sacrificed themselves for others, willingly or not, why mourn over it too long? It would not be right of him to stop and waste it. Slowly but surely, elf after elf died in more or less violent deaths (heart attacks, being put down by their comrades due to them losing their mind, etc.) until but a handful remained, those who would later be known as the Wrathbound. Having seen the fruits of his labour, his creations, he knew he couldn't stop until he changed, no that wasn't right, saved as many elves from the magic of the forest as he could. The end results leading to many more deaths than "saved" lives, but surely they weren't worthy of survival then, were they? In the end only a fourth of the elves made it from the Shifting woods, all of them in their new forms.

After Shifting woods
Anly'eth has mostly spent his time after the whole "incident" with the woods studying the new magic introduced to them in the woods and it's effects on others under cover of sincere care for his fellow elves, sadly a care long gone.

Personality
Before they entered the Shifting woods, he could even be described as a cheery person, curious to be sure, but always up for helping those he cared about. What came out of those woods was a rather far from the previous version. Cold, calculating person whose only interest is furthering his own research and knowledge, wrapped in a seemingly the same facade as before.
