Anvar Greenlith is a complex character. He’s Linvin’s uncle, his mother
Jelena’s brother and his father Dirk’s best friend. Anvar was actually
friends with Dirk before he met Jelena. Anvar and Dirk used to carouse the
local drinking establishments in Fraylic in their youth. After Anvar
introduced Dirk to Jelena, the two fell in love and were wed in spite of fierce
Greenlith family resistance. They had only one child; Linvin. Anvar
was a good friend and confidant of Linvin’s throughout his life. As a
result, Linvin was the only one of Anvar’s nephews who had the privilege of
calling him solely by his first name. Anvar visited Linvin on occasion in
Valia and was the only person other than Jelena in on Dirk’s plans for Linvin
and the Red Sapphire. When Dirk disappeared, Anvar kept an especially
close eye on his sister who was unconcerned about her own safety. He
disagreed with bringing Linvin home as he felt it might force the hand of
someone after the staff and key she hid. Anvar was right to be worried as
she was poisoned. It fell to him to deliver the bad news to Linvin along
with the staff and key. Then he had to convince Linvin to go on the quest
or else find himself dead like his parents. Anvar has the benefit of
knowing every detail of the story from the beginning. In order to keep his
nephews in the fold he chooses the time and place to divulge the
information. Anvar can talk without end and still have secrets he
keeps. Nothing is shared until it is necessary. He is cunning and
manipulative in a good way to get the party to do what is necessary. Anvar
is hard on the twins as they continue to question Linvin’s leadership and cause
problems. He is, however, especially hard on Linvin. His closest
remaining friend and pupil has enormous ability and potential. In order to
reach that potential Anvar must be overly critical of Linvin so he will stop
acting rashly and think before he puts a plan into motion. Whenever Linvin
makes the slightest mistake, Anvar is there to criticize his choices. He
hates to be so hard on Linvin but his eldest nephew needs the tough love.
Linvin has been able to ignore his shortcomings for so long that he does not see
them. Only harsh critiques of his plans will enable Linvin to grow into
the man he needs to become. Anvar is also an Orange Magician. It is
the second most powerful level of magic and has been hidden from the family for
his entire life. Magicians are often viewed as freaks by society and he
had enough trouble as an elf blending into a human world. His powers will
prove to be of great benefit in the party’s travels.
