Svenyip Skieseeker -- Generally goes by just "Sven" except to close friends.
            He is a half-elven spellsinger whose magic is based on
            defense and healing.  He and Liana Elandria are
            friends and adventures from several years back.  He has
            telepathic powers, but will generally use them only with
            Liana.  His most prized possession is the Sword of
            Elenius, a powerful blade with magic which, as Svenyip
            may soon discover, can be double-edged...
