Backstory: Pelias Siannodel

Pelias was originally orphaned when his parents grew ill and died. He was adopted by a loving smith and hunter, and the two other men raised him. He joined the King's Rangers, where he would later meet another young captain like himself, Aerendyl, who was also orphaned and raised by two clerics. , . Ultimately the two young elves would marry, but are adventuring currently to raise money to start a family.

- a reference to Aerendyl's hair color and beard type.

TL;DR: their parents were gay and they are gay
