A Description of Crow (for Emmy)

Essilfye ("Crow Child", referred to as "Crow" usually) was a tall man with long arms and legs and fingers and toes. At twenty-one years of age, he had traveled the lands with no specific purpose, but keeping alert to clues as to his origin. He was an Elf, as far as anyone could tell, but he did not look quite right. His ears were longer, less ear-shaped and they stuck out the sides of his head. Like elves, he could wiggle them around, forwards and backwards and up and down, often used to help express his emotions. Also like elves, his thin limbs and lankiness belied his immense strength. He had middle-length white hair and gray eyes.
Crow almost always dressed strangely for the fashions of the time. Most often, he wore either Gi, some sort of suit or a foppish, red and white suit with a flamboyant hat and a white feather (based off of Red Mages from Final Fantasy). His skin below his neck was always covered by wrappings to hide it from sunlight. His skin was covered in black markings, an intricate pattern like an impression of disjointed flames pulled apart. These markings brought him intense and burning pain as well as nausea and migraines when exposed to the sun. He had been found and adopted by the Elvish royal family (they ruled only a small part of the land though), but his true race was something similar to what we would think of as vampires.
However these "Vampires" (called "Ellegor", meaning "Imperfect") are more associated with spiders than bats. His canine teeth were slightly longer and pointier, but this was mostly unnoticable. In combat he used his bare hands, alchemy (similar to psynergy from Golden Sun) and- when necessary - a glaive (he most fits the "eastern monk" class).
He was layed-back, but determined and could be provoked into a fight if annoyed. He was very protective of Lenore, his love interest and eventual wife. Lenore was a blind elf who suffered from a form of Dwarfism that left her short and mostly small. She was found in a snowstorm with no memory of her past. She had hair like the night sky, skin as pale as the stars and eyes like the moon through the clouds.
But I digress, he was determined, intellegent and a bit hot-headed. He had a Familiar named Romulus who was a young Ice Summon-Spirit in the form of a gray-wolf.

Written for Emmy as a description for a drawing. I am interested to see her interpretation of his physical aspects as well as his character that shows through in art. I don't expect her to draw Lenore or Romulus or anything like that, I gave those simply as character elaboration (thus the skimpy descriptions)
This will give me a chance to see how well I convey my thoughts after they get filtered into text and then again into someone else's thoughts.
