Ethon Darkviel

== Appearance and Character ==
Standing at 6'0, Ethon isn't the largest man to exist, but he isn't tiny either. His love of combat and constant training in swordsmanship has granted him an athletic and muscular body. He has slightly tanned skin due to him being outdoors all of the time. He has a fairly light shade of brown as his eye color with his hair being slightly darker brown than his eyes.
Personality wise, Ethon is fairly smug and sly, winning some friends over with his witty remarks and comments. Though he usually doesn't insult people, he sometimes pokes fun without any intended malice however the recipient may feel about it. Despite poking fun, Ethon is well natured and nice, at least to those on the outside, only making his jokes with close friends. He is a close embodiment of a summer knight, untested on the field until recent years even through the waging war around him, he has grown up in a softer environment and learned chivalric behaviors. Ethon enjoys the life of nobility, taking to the fun and carefree mannerisms that he could enjoy due to his social status.
Given the lack of most leadership traits, some people around Ruizar would joke around by saying that he was more fit to be a hedge knight than a lord teasing him on his family's fall from grace. Though the jokes usually got to him, his elder brother Kasiar showed him to ignore them, causing Ethon to adopt his joking mannerisms as a defense mechanism against the jokes as he would only brush them off and spew them back at those who insulted him. The malice, however, wouldn't last long as jokes about him eventually became further in between and Ethon had no reason to insult anyone anymore. The cause of the lessening of jokes may have been Ethon biting back, but he thinks that it might have had something to do with Kasiar threatening some of the tormentors as it rarely happened with him around him.
Later in life Kasiar became Lord Commander of the Kingsguard to Maegaron Vakerian II on the side of the Blacks near the start of the War of Three Dragons. Ethon's father would pass away and the young Darkviel was now an important knight his house abandoning Ruizar for Firekeep.
