Often seen in magically enchanted clothing made by @vaestro and @lunethdawnseeker of the Tenacious Tapestries that never stains or tears.
Those who don't know him would observe a strong playful nuisance / former street rat vibe with a makeover due to the company he now keeps. Despite his now finer lifestyle and clothing he's adapting too he's still at heart a scrappy, animated, mischievous survivor. His joy in silly hats, white chocolate, sweets, dancing, miming, and never sitting still makes him immediately memorable. His love for music and singing earned him the nickname 'Sindorei Canary' as he will randomly sing-song his way through life and most situations.
He’s described as both 'adorable and kind' and 'sticky fingered and obnoxious' which tracks well for someone who survives by charm and deceit. Depending on who meets him, he’s either a lovable pest or a menace. Rather than a fighter, he frustrates opponents, slipping away like smoke and excels in burst speed to get away. He doesn't actually have a mean bone in his body despite all he's been through he's more a lover than a fighter by far. He will go to any length to protect those less fortunate like him including animals considered unsavory and fellow varmints.

Profession: Vocalist for Fangbreaker, the vampyric themed band founded by Dorian of Ashes of Alar. Not really a profession but he is often seen parked outside the Tenacious Tapestries singing or performing little street shows in Silvermoon just to make people laugh. Thus his current nickname.
Hobbies:
Singing and songwriting (he often ties memories to songs)
Caring for stray or injured animals
Journaling and sketching in his magical soulbound tome
Exploring hidden or enchanted places within the Dawnseeker Spire or wherever he find them in the city.
Causing harmless mischief among friends
Deep-seated fear of worgen and wolves (stemming from past trauma)
Losing his memory again or having his journal destroyed
Abandonment from those he grows close to
Residence: The Dawnseeker Summer Spire at the North Sanctum in Silvermoon shared by the Ashes of Alar guild.
Birthplace: The Barrens (born in a caravan that was later massacred by centaur raiders)
Colors and Vibe:
Faolan is often dressed in reds, blacks and golden orange colors. He also likes darker teals that go well with silver or blood red. He often wears jackets in casual attire and in concert attire both. His concert attire is more gothic Victorian vampire meets glam which he always wears a thick eyeliner around his eyes for a show. But when he's not performing he likes attire he can run and move in. He has a love for the Tauren themes/vibe after being raised by them so he loves tans, turquoise, reds and oranges and sometimes even blues. He has a passion for totem spirits or animals/critters seen as varmints. Especially coyotes, his strongest vibe of all as a fellow trickster.
He moves like a spark that's never quite settled, always restless, theatrical and unapologetically present in every moment. Mischief clings to him as naturally as breath, carried in exaggerated gestures, playful grins, giggles and a voice that drifts easily between teasing laughter to an unexpected song. He can feel chaotic but never cruel, irritating to some but magnetic to others. He's the sort of elf who sprawls across steps he doesn't belong on and somehow convinces people he does. Whether he's pestering friends, trying on someone else's hat or stealing the spotlight with dramatic flair, he lives loudly in any moment. He's impossible to ignore and strangely hard to resent even for those who despise his personality.
