Conor has had an interesting start in the Warders Yard. Originally an
NPC in the antics of Fior and Sahra along with anouther NPC Mahiko,
Conor has developed far enough to be honored a Biography of his own.
Andorian born to a very rich textile merchant, Conor's father Davrin
(A single child himself - arrogant & never been of need or want) felt
that the only way to shape up his wayward son was to enlist him in the
Queens Royal Guard. His mother, Audrina, was worse and cared very
little for the son she gave birth to. It was not a loving family that
Conor grew up in and shouting matches were as common as Silk in Arad
Doman. Daily Conor retreated to the kitchens, stables (and when of an
older age) a small tavern on the edge of Caemlyn. It was there he
learned the lighter side of life through ale and women. But as his
next name day was fast approaching, he needed a plan to avoid the path
his parents were forcing on him.
"To Tar Valon." He had thought, musing over an ale. "To study the
Sword under the Light, like the Queen's own Sons have." Conor knew his
history, and his studies, and it had always been tradition for the
heirs of the Andorian Throne to study within the walls of the infamous
White Tower. Heading home, Conor wasted no time in packing up a
satchel of clothes, and a bag of crowns and left home, whistling a
very happy tune.
Arriving at the Tower, well fed and refreshed from spending one last
night in a paid room, Conor met up with the Mistress of Trainees,
Ginae, and was promptly assigned to Cairma Vishnu as a mentor and his
roommate was Mahiko, a lanky male Arafellian. Across from his room was
Sahra and Fior. Unfortunately for Conor, these were not women that he
was used to. Woman he knew were either cold hearted, like his mother,
or arm tassels for coin. After his first meeting with Cairma, his view
of women changed drastically and he felt very intimidated by them,
especially those within the Tower. It hindered his ability to learn
under Cairma, but yet with Mahiko, Fior and Sahra's help, he was able
to get over the worst of his apparent shyness and instead developed a
fierce need to protect such strong women. His ties with these three
trainees grew very close, especially him and Fior as they both shared
the same mentor.
Over the course of the first few years, it was nothing just getting in
shape, training, and the occasional visit to the Tavern Sahra once
worked in. After a years time, Sahra convinced him to court one of the
barmaids that was fairly close to Sahra names Susa. For a time it was
good. On his days off he would go see her and they would talk and
laugh, but as Fior's relationship with Sahra developed, and her
apparent attachment to her mentor Ursana, Conor grew more and more
troubled and dissatisfied. He worried more over Sahra than he did over
his own life. Susa took great offense to this and grew jealous of
Conors apparent "Love" for Sahra. Denying the possibility as Sahra was
practically a sister, she only huffed and turned away. The
relationship ended on a sour note. But instead of wallowing, he kept
the pain deeply hidden and carried on as nothing happened. Shara
however noticed this and, like the nosy gossip hound she was, wouldn't
settle until Conor could explain to her why her good friend Susa would
no longer speak to her and why Conor would be seen practicing sword
forms on his off days (which he never did before.)
"My priorities have changed." Was all he would tell her at first, but
as she persisted, he admitted that Susa felt jealous of her, Sahra,
and left him. Not wishing to drag it on, Conor left Sahra and instead
headed back out into the Yard to repeat every sword form Cairma taught
him, making mistakes in each one.
