Camdoo W'Teelf

Camdoo W'Teelf is the legendary progenitor of the Witch-Elves. The legends surrounding him are many, contradictory, and vague, for this was his ultimate power: supposedly, when he mastered the art of Elemenstation, he cut himself apart from timenes itself, leaving him adrift on the currents of time and causality. The positive upshot is that he is fully immune to timesorc'ley and all attempts to discern his location. The downside is that all that is known conclusively about him is his name, specie, and accomplishments, and that these tend to change rapidly yet imperceptively.

Some say his greatest art was in the creation of his own race, the Witch-Elves. Others say that, before he cut himself from the timestream, he managed to combine Stream and Air together to make an ur-element capable of overwhelming even time and space itself, and that was his greatest accomplishment. The most common claim to greatness, however, was his ability to not have to participate in or care about extensive arguements about what earstwhile young magic-user has made an abomination out of causality and in which when.
