Daltis Thulum

== Appearance and Personality ==
Daltis Thulum is a long faced man with thick brown hair, but he looks older because his beard has begun to grey. He has cautious blue eyes, often reflecting his outward mood. However, despite his gruff, hard and watchful nature, Daltis tends to be an extremely affectionate, kind-hearted and loving man, especially towards his family.
As a young man, Daltis was a very quiet person but was surely a warrior and a leader, He is, to his credit, an effective administrator, and commander, but is karmically ill-suited to the politicking of the kingdoms, and ultimately unable to rule or make decisions as well as those around him. This made him lack proper cunning, and a poor political strategist.
The wrinkles on his face reflect the valleys of the mountains too. He is balding and so far, what little hair he has left has remained as brown as dirt, but that seems a small victory, all things considered.
One thing that age has not taken from him is his strength. He stands tall, and strong as an ox, with dark eyes that still burn with determination. Not winter, nor the death of his comrades, nor the horrors of war have managed to douse that flame.
He received his knightly assignment shortly after marrying Olivia. He was to accompany a minor lords only daughter, north to marry another minor lords son. He was livid. He had only gotten married and he wasn't being called for combat or anything but rather to be a petty soldier. He fought against the people that gave the assignment eventually killing them and going back to his wife.
At the Battle of the Tarill, when dragons descended upon the armies of the North, and the knights met their end by fire and steel, Daltis, still a day or two's ride north, was nowhere to be found. In quiet nights, in his cups, some say he yet swears it would have ended different had he been there. Whether that is true or not is for the Gods alone to know.
