Roscelin,The Ashes Of Burned Bark Haunt My Hollow Path, They Croon Words That Have Weaved Me With Hunger, I Become Meticulous Bird Of Prey, better known as Sparrow, is one of the first known Orarchs. They go by 'he' or 'they'. They are a mix between a druid and a ranger.

Description
Sparrow has lightly brown skin with many sun spots. They have mud brown hair that has never been cut and have a feathery aspect. They sometimes tie it in a braid, but mostly it's a long mess of soft curls. Their eyes are stormy blue. They are pretty tall and dangly, their build reminds that of a heron. Their hands are surprisingly fine for someone who has spent their life outdoors.

No one knows much about Sparrow as they are hard to get to know. People generally find him off putting as he his quiet and gives the impression that he his silently judging them (which HE IS). Their quietness has made people assume that they are shy, but nothing could be further from the truth. This can be witnessed during one of his joy or anger outbursts. They're also not a fan of physical contact.

Before the war, he had been known as easy-go-lucky and maybe even kind. But this was changed as the war has made is emotional outbursts more exacerbated and has left them with a hatred for people, where there was before only mild annoyance.

Sparrow is extremely fond of music, especially that created by the simple motions of the world: the rain on long summer days, the slow hush of a forest after heavy snow, the crunch of footsteps on leaves. His love of nature and its music is probably why he enjoys birds so much and takes after them in his aesthetic.

They care deeply about the environment, its animals and spirits.

History
Sparrow grew up among the Morningstar nomadic clan. They never stayed in one place for very long, they were taught how to survive and to respect nature as it was their home.

During the war, they became a scout for the Kingdom, as they knew the terrain better than anyone and became the fastest and quietest of them all.

During a mission, he encountered a missive from the Kingdom to burn down a whole forest to slowdown the advance of the enemy. Sparrow could not deal with the loss of such an ecosystem and, in a foolhardy moment, he initiated a ritual to prevent the whole forest from burning. In exchange, he gave away his heart. Giving up his heart left Sparrow forever changed. It earned him the nickname Heartless among the whispers of other Orarchs. The ritual also had the consequence of having him caught by the enemy. He spent many years as a war prisoner, but ended up escaping with very sensitive information that change the course of the war.

As the story of his ritual spread, he was known as a traitor to the Kingdom. Until he came back with vital information, but some still consider him as a threat.

To this day, he also harbors a tremendous amount of resentment towards the Kingdom for ravaging so many incredible ecosystems and for letting him rot in a dungeon for so long.

Since their time as a prisoner, they have preferred spending their time in isolation and as far as possible of all human settlement. The Orarchs use them to keep and protect hard to reach places of power.
