Br'izan

==Overview==
Regior Br'izan (Better known by the mononym Izan) was an accomplished C'thardji artist, best known for his works of the Royal Family of C'thardjia but also celebrated for his own independent works. His most popular and controversial piece was the 'Reign of Queen Tr'eulie' painted shortly after the Queen's coronation. Izan was Regior of the Broitar through his marriage to Br'cia and they had two children together. Izan and his wife also had a strong friendship with the Queen Tr'cyllia, King Tr'orlon, Sir Ch'matrin and Dame Ch'jayde, with the trio of couples meeting regularly across their busy lives.
==Biography==
During the Uprootings, Izan became romantically involved with the young Regia Br'cia. A year after the war ended the pair married and Izan became a Regior of Br'clan. That same year, at the Coronation of Queen Tr'cyllia, Cia introduced Izan to Regior Ch'matrin, a close friend of hers. Impressed by Izan's works, Matrin put Izan in contact with the new ruling Tr'clan and by Matrin's recommendation Izan was commissioned to paint a portrait of the Queen. With this, Izan quickly became well known among C'thardji nobles and soon found himself with a highly esteemed career.
Izan worked for many years producing works for various nobles across C'thardjia and even across the wider continent. After the Coronation of Queen Tr'callie, reaching his fifties, Izan took on less and less work and soon found himself working solely on his own, often private, works. He would, however, produce one final piece for Tr'clan following the Coronation of Queen Tr'eulie. The painting, known as the 'Reign of Queen Tr'eulie' was accepted by the family yet became a work of controversy for its debated 'villainous' depiction of Eulie. Public opinion of the Queen was strong yet those close to her, such as Prince Tr'cupen and Ch'matrin, were known to speak critically of her in private. Because of his friendship with Matrin, it was believed Izan himself had no love for the Queen and as such portrayed what he saw as her true nature in his art. Despite the debate, Izan would never comment on the intent of his work. Such negative beliefs came to be justified with the Trial of Tr'eulie two decades later.
Izan passed away shortly before his 89th birthday in 268 AG, with his wife passing some years prior, he was survived by his two daughters.
