Daenylea Faewyn I

**Daenylea Faewyn** is the youngest daughter born to Lord Aronno Faewyn, the Lord of Grahill, and his wife, Shiera Taronal.

## Appearance and Character

Daenylea is an unabashed foxy beauty. Her face features high cheekbones, full lips, and blue eyes (probably from her grandmother). The lady's dark hair ran down low, in her early years being cut shorter and done up in her later years. Her body is slender and shorter then her siblings, standing at 5'5".

She tends to dress clothes both trendy and costly, typically black as well as darker greens and blues. More often than not they are embroidered with the sigil of House Faewyn. She always wears a pendant around her neck, featuring the sigil of the Matron of Ice, one of the two signs of The Starry Rites.

Depending on who's speaking Daenylea is either a brat and a disappointment to an old noble house or a beauty and a kind and pious woman willing to do the gods work. Actually, Thats what she saw of herself, as do others. But she does have the skill of alchemy and potions, and can make a quip or two when need be.

That was her main utility to House Faewyn: her mind. She's also known for her skill in court. She can dance slower and more quietly than any other. Alas, that has little use in these war days.

Near the middle of the year 1,341 A.C. Daenylea was going on an expedition to the Grand Cathedral of the Gods Old and New to pray to the gods and possibly find herself a godly man to wed to. However she would never arrive at the cathedral as her ship was routed to the Qairan Deserts where she was quickly imprisoned and raped for nights on end before at the battle of Darintal, when her siblings arrived they had knights publicly flay parts of her body off as her screams echoed throughout the city before being thrown into a bed of scorpions where they would all sting her causing her a painful death. Her brother and Lord of Grahill charged the knights and reportedly sliced through thirty knights almost getting to her before she was thrown into the deep scorpion pits of which in a rage he went up and killed the knights who did this to her and managed to beat them within an inch of their life which then the Faewyn knights captured and reportedly tortured over seven long weeks for what they did to their beloved Lady.
Olivia Thulum I

## Appearance and Character

Crafty and owing to a difficult temperament, the youngest child of Christor and Talana Thulum is best known as the stark contrast to her brother. Where he is harsh and rough natured, Alyssa is endlessly droll and oftentimes kind to people she meets.

Black-haired and silver-eyed, she has full and rounded features, yet Olivia is noted to look more similar to their father Christor while he still had both eyes in her brand of beauty; one that is notably soft, compared to the barbed personality it sometimes comes with.

Long has her reputation preceded her in the North, infamous as a troublemaker and perhaps even more so for her flighty temper. She is often kind, and has a talent for making friends. Despite this however she is often disobedient and willful to people that have wronged her even once, taken to doing as she pleases with little regard for consequence. Despite this wider belligerence, keenly does she obey her eldest brother when so forced, and will often heed the advice of Tykor begrudgingly.

To some that have wronged her, her quick wit and pretty face are enough to make her tolerable, but in truth Olivia has maintained no particularly meaningful relationships inside her own family as a result of her trickster tendencies.
Geori Dandemire

## Appearance and Character

Unlike her brother, Geori is petite and lithe, something that makes her look more inoffensive than she really is. Her light hair, blonde of color, is usually falling past her shoulders (although she ties it up in a ponytail sometimes, mostly for practicality), and although her hazel eyes are not very expressive she usually makes up for it with a wide, welcoming smile.

She is a woman of action and emotion. She hardly ever stays still for long, and usually only does so when the Golden Queen stays still due to always being at her side. Due to her light hearted and positive nature outside of battle she has made many friends in her journeys, and whenever something annoys her she will always let the offender know rather than hold a grudge in silence.

Geori was born in 1,327 A.C, shortly after the beginning of the War of Three Dragons. Hearing from her brother Patrack how great it had been to be outside the palace in his childhood she took every chance she had to be outdoors, on foot at first and on horseback whenever she learned to ride. Not wanting to let her be outside alone but not wanting to let her know she was under guard, her father convinced two huntresses to become her handmaidens and to keep an eye on her. One of the two huntresses eventually left after an affair with her brother, but the other stayed with Geori and told her everything she knows about fighting bowmanship and swordplay.

Eager to have more friends with similar interests, Geori asked her tutor to also teach her handmaidens to hunt. A few of them tried, but in the end only four of them liked it enough to stay with her and accompany her on her journeys. They call themselves the 'knifes', as they jokingly say a Dandemire should always carry their knives with them, and when not hunting they still stay together and enjoy each other's company.

She met Rhaesys Vakerian when she was around fifteen years of age and already immensely skilled with the sword. She very quickly grew to like her and wished to use her skills and her newly acquired Ossen Steel blade to protect the Golden Queen with everything she has. She was granted shining armor that she rarely is seen without upon her departure as Rhaesys and Maenyx approved of her protection after seeing her skills at conversation and with the blade.
Kairi Pecerean I

**Kairi Pecerean I** is the firstborn child, and first daughter to Carron Runeri I, and Alis Pecerean III. Of the Pecerean children, she possesses the docile temperament and scholarly aptitude to most closely resemble their mother. Kairi drew ever closer to their royal lineage, training with a sword from a young age to be a masterful katana wielder. Although she has some people that seem to want to wed her she does not seem interested at this very point.

## Appearance and Character

Standing at 5'7", Kairi is by no means a small woman. She bears the typical weight and expected muscle toning for a swordswoman. Her face retains the slim features and cheekbones common to her bloodline, but despite her lamentations for her parent's ethereal beauty and regal characteristics, Kairi's appearance remains decidedly Pecerean at its core with slight Runeri influence.

Blue eyes as bright as the summer's sky peer out from beneath thick, minimally manicured black brows. When loosed, lustrous raven locks cascade just above her shoulders in waves.  Unlike her younger brothers, whose visage is most often dark and brooding, she is rarely seen without a smile upon her lips or a flicker of joy within her gentle eyes. Among court, she keeps to the current trends and fashions, maintaining an elegantly polished look to befit a knightly but feminine appearance.

Although she may take after her mother in appearance, it is to her father that most compare her character. Demure and collected, Kairi has ever been the mediator for her siblings' various disagreements. Observant and clever, she pooled her inclinations into academic pursuits, determined that what conflict she could not prevent and resolve by her word, she would heal by her hand.

Kairi is witty and charismatic like Carron is; as is she deft with a blade and quick of tactical wit like Alis. Neither of her younger brothers could hold a candle to her in speed but tend to have more physical strength. Growing up, Kairi had a fun childhood full of academia and training, her parents often did good to not speak of the ongoing war around her as to give her a kinder upbringing then other people got to have. She grew and used to swing sticks as swords before she was granted a training sword by her parents.
Vaynia Rane

**Vaynia Rane** was born in 1,309 in Uliria, her parents loved her but favored her brother Serron Rane. By no regards however was she neglected, she was a woman that got a great education and was taught how to sew and weave as a lady should. Meanwhile her brother was being knighted and winning tourneys She is the youngest child of Kantan Rane and his wife, Yarna Rane.

She met Vansar Kariar in 1,329 when he was coming to survey defenses near the Hightower. He found the beautiful woman and nearly instantly began to flirt with her as he had done countless times before. They quickly fell in love with each other or some would argue fell in lust with each other of which love grew from. They have had one child which they both love a strong willed woman named Lydia Kariar.

## Appearance and Character

Vaynia is traditionally beautiful, with long, black hair. She has dulled blue eyes, and full pink lips. She has a small nose, and small eyebrows, with a narrow face and slightly pronounced cheekbones. She was also blessed with a thin figure and well endowed features which is likely what Vansar fell for at first.

She strongly resembles her mother, save for her hair. She is is short, and has an hourglass figure. She is charismatic and reputable, however rarely gets a chance to use it for she has no seat at court. However many suggest that she may whisper in the ear of Vansar to get him to do as she wishes however these claims at this point are unfounded. She is known to always be kind and courtly when necessary oftentimes doing whatever Vansar wants at least out in public. She can tend to make decisions on a whim, and rarely thinks ahead as such she is very stubborn to anyone that is not her family.

She prefers lighter colors, and wispy silks. An air of command follows her wherever she goes, but she does not lack for generosity, nor is she ever unkind. Despite that, Vaynia has an accusatory nature, and is quick to lay blame. Her nature oft lends to her forgiving terrible offenses.
Robin Seronyth IV

## Appearance and Personality

Robin Seronyth is a thin and rather tall man with dark hair, a sharp moustache sharp features in general and brown eyes that are apparently cold enough that they don't laugh when his mouth does. He always oddly somehow has the scent of lavender on his breath. He tends to dress in black and his personal sigil in his house is the eye of a falcon, as opposed to the rest of his family that emblazons their family's flag of a falcon.

Highly intelligent, secretive and ambitious, Robin is well known for being extremely cunning and Machiavellian, and has been so his entire life. On account of the fact that he was born to the highest family in the Midlands, he has managed a track record with several great lords even from opposing sides of the war, people look down on him, but in person everyone appears to trust him because he seems helpful, and those who don't eventually make the mistake of eventually bowing to his words. There was once an alleged exchange between Elyana and Robin, of which they both exchanged words of truths that both of them managed to know. It was a match of wit to be certain and many would claim Elyana won it even if Robin would say otherwise.

He has a rather dry sense of humor, which he often uses to make himself seem passive and obsequious, a mask for how dangerous a man he is in confrontations he can go from being cold and dangerous to being glib and sarcastic, the latter especially when dealing with personal opponents. One thing that many people who work professionally with him recognize that he has an almost effortless knack for creating networks of his own, and even developing relationships with other people to develop his own advantages.

Robin seems to have no qualms about breaking sacred laws such as that of marriage, since he murdered his first wife he wedded when he was fifteen when she talked back to him in a matter of intellect before taking his second wife a much more amenable woman. Robin appears not to notice that his schemes of murder and corruption, betraying and applying to the deaths of people are hurting anyone almost as if he sees it all as a chess board with pieces to pick off. Therefore, it is clear that Robin, for all his motivations, is a dangerous man to cross.
Blaine Runeri I

**Blaine Runeri I** is the last child born of Carrel and Valia Runeri, and a knight of his house until the unfortunate death of his wife on the childbed which caused him to step back and take care of his children especially after his long depression. He revels in his bloodline, fashioning himself as not just the son to his father, but also as a younger version of him which many people would be inclined to believe with how he has always acted. An accomplished knight in his younger years, he is somewhat renowned for his participation in the War of Three Dragons, leading units into battle usually successfully. In recent years he resides within Sudal raising his children and occasionally aiding at court.

## Appearance and Character

Standing at 6'1", Blaine is just barely under the height of his father when he was in his prime. Strongly muscled and built although rounding out in recent years, he was an imposing figure to behold when he wishes to be- which isn't often. His blue eyes are usually open and friendly, as if inviting one to share a drink with him but a certain darkness lays deep within them following the death of his beloved wife Shibuya Bayeri II.

Keeping it pulled back usually, Robar has straight blonde hair. It seems to never actually change in length, remaining the same due to the constant attention he gives it. Considering it a mark of his lineage, there is no doubt in the pride he takes in the blonde mane.

Blaine Runeri is a good man, most would say. He is pious, charitable, and more than willing to show mercy in the face of adversity. Kind to all, there are few who can recall an ill experience with him that they did not provoke themselves. Yet despite that, most seem to forget his aggressive nature- although he would never start a fight without just cause, he is constantly seeking them out, eager to prove himself worthy of the longsword he wields.

Charismatic, Blaine champions the rights of lords and smallfolk alike, all finding themselves with the opportunity to advance under his eye. A small cadre of knights wrap themselves around him, charmed by his leadership abilities and willingness to take the same risks he is. His honor inspires them and pushes them forward. Or so they tell him, and he is willing to believe them- for trust goes both ways.

His children often are his largest challenge for parenting is no easy task, however he sees a lot of his late wife in them and as such loves them unconditionally. He is often seen teaching the ones who are still around him whenever possible or training with them if they wish it.
Annalys Vass

## Appearance and Character

Annalys has a thin frame with a warm pale complexion. She has slightly curly red hair that is usually pulled back into a braid or an updo. Soft, round face and features, and eyes the color of the purest part of the Jeweled Sea. She prefers to wear dresses befitting of the stature of nobility, often in the colous of her House and fancily detailed.

Annalys Vass was born in 1,327 AC to Vanlan and Lorelah Vass as their fifth and youngest child, and second born girl of the family. As being neither male or the oldest, she quickly learned what opportunities were available to her, and inheriting her family home someday was not one of them. She grew up playing with her siblings regardless, loving to tell them riddles and laughing if they thought for too long, which some took as malicious but it was truly and genuinely just her having fun.

She learned all the skills that noble ladies did, but never took to one activity in particular. She grew close to her older sister, despite their difference in age. Even when she was little, she loved to learn, and grew close to her father when he showed her how he would run Aysgarth or eventually how her brother would. While they were never serious lessons, she picked up on the little things he taught her quickly.

Her studies continued as she grew up to be a young lady, learning her relevant courtly skills, Annalys learned how to act and what to say to remain courteous while dealing with other noble lords and ladies.

Years past, and Annalys was coming of age. Marriage was becoming the topic for her. A marriage prospect between House Pecerean in the Midlands was suggested, as they had a son near the same age as Annalys. Preparations for such a marriage, dowry, and alliance were set in order for her to fulfill when she was a little bit older. Alas it would prove to not happen as the Pecerean family pulled out of the deal due to their sons will to be a knight of the Kingsguard and therefore could not take a wife or threaten his chances at ever even being considered for the position. This deeply upset Annalys but as she always has she didn't stay upset or sad for long, at least on the outside, where she bounced back to being her normal happy self enjoying sewing and making dresses for herself. To this day she still is looking for a partner but it is relatively hard for her for anyone who thinks about their family things of her older sister Jaina instead of her.
Hermia Faerhorn

## Appearance and Character

A natural performer, Hermia enjoys all forms of performing arts from acting to music, but has a particular affinity for singing as she was once a songstress. She is flirtatious, and used to have a habit of flirting with people before she met her now husband Kaeran Vakerian.

Despite being lowerborn then most of the ladies in the Palace of Fire, she tries to meet everyone as equals. However, she holds resentment towards those of preppy nobility because of the classist treatment she received from nobles during her childhood and throughout, on occasion remarking how they only seemed to care about her after she became a Vakerian by name. Objectification on stage by the rich, added with her poor childhood, resulted in her developing self esteem issues on par with her outgoing personality. Nonetheless, she is readily confident in her ability to strike back against men who make attempts on her life her family and her friends. While she never ascribes such attitudes to all nobility, she finds it difficult not to, leading to cases of suspicion and judgment even if said noble does not deserve such a treatment.

As a result of her minor house background, and her experiences as living on the streets for a time, she shows great concern for the common folk caught in the crossfire of wars and noble-led conflict, particularly orphaned children.

For a time after being kicked and denounced by her previous family she joined up with The Mummers Company, and quickly became a favorite amongst them. She often refers to her friends with diminutive versions of their names and will occasionally embarrass her friends to tease them. She likes dressing glamorously, outfitting herself with accessories and decorative ornaments.
Sairex

Sairex, known as the Singer primarily, is the Grand Maester of the Vakerians in the Blacks faction. His mother is a trader and he claims not to be a noble's son as claimed by a few others.

## Appearance and Character

Sairex is slender, comely, and has a soft smile, speaking with a soft Qairan drawl. He has curly black hair that is normally pulled flat, and big silver eyes. Sairex has skin the color of a light teak looking to be someone either foreign or from the Holdfast. Sairex tends to wear fancy clothes that normally drape as in robes and often covers their shoulders and such with fur or cloaks and they are constantly draped in jewelry, some being Ossen Steel that they were supposedly gifted.

Sairex prefers wine from the Foreign Isles instead of anywhere within Saerial. He displays remarkable skill with his katana, that nobody quite knows where it is from. It has an odd shine to it that almost makes it shine in rainbow colors across the dirt or stone.

Sairex is heavily respected amongst the blacks and rightfully so. He has saved multiple members of the army and the nobility from illnesses or injuries. He is nicknamed the Singer by most and the Sorcerer from the few who believes that he uses black magic to achieve his goals. Sairex is doted on by the serving women and occasionally men of Firekeep, including the youngest of the Lakoran girls, which makes some people jealous.

Sairex is the Grand Maester of the Blacks, who has served at Firekeep ever since 1,335 Despite his somewhat long service especially in wartime he is also one of the greatest enigmas to the court.  There are few who do not seek his advice, or counsel on a wide array of matters. Sairex has enjoyed a particularly close relationship with the royalty throughout most of the monarchs adult life, and is Maegaron's most trusted advisor.

Little is known of his early life, but he is quite gifted in all matters of the arcane.  That for which he is most notable, perhaps, is his work with dragons and knowledge of dragon lore.  Which is said to surpass that of any living member of the royal family, including King Maegaron surprisingly.

His relationship with Saerial and the academy has sometimes been fraught, but of the living maesters there are few that could challenge his wisdom.  Still there are some who name him the Sorcerer, the Singer, and even the Secret Keeper.  For, unique among his order, Sairex has sometimes proved reticent to share bits of knowledge he has gained with little to no explanation.
Rickar Vass

## Appearance and Character

Rickar Vass is current Acting Lord of Aysgarth. He is also an written advisor to Lord Denzin Thulum of Sarilt.

By the time he was eight, Rickar had developed a ruthless streak manipulating other children who made fun of his dead mother, and getting into fights and physically abusing the household at the Aysgarth Keep when they talked about his slight abnormality on his hands.

Vanlan Vass, Rickar’s father, realized that Rickar was at a cross-roads, if he was to take a wrong turn he could walk down a path towards being a sadistic tyrant and ruin the Vass name. The other path led towards being a ruthless but efficient lord. He tutored his son closely, teaching him self-control over his darker urges. His father taught him how use his ruthless streak to his advantage, like a puppet master, using intelligence and calculated decisions to get what he wanted, to play the political game correctly you must always outmaunever your enemies. They would spend hours every day reading through the stories of the most renown masters of espionage and intelligent commanders who favored their wits over their brawn, even some stories of his own.

There comes a time in every Northern boy’s life when they must learn to wield a sword. Rickar was a natural with a blade, but he was often overly enthusiastic in training. When Rickar was 16, he found himself in a heated sparring match with Daryn Obern that ended with an axe slicing down his face, narrowly missing his eye. Rickar was not one to hold a grudge with Daryn, as he was a loyal friend and had given him his own fair share of scars. The two continued to train on a regular basis and Rickar became an outstanding warrior in his own right even if he does not adhere to violence as he did when he was younger.

In 1,315 AC, House Vass and House Vrinian joined families when Rickar and Cemri were married. They conceived a child months later but the child was stillborn when delivered in 1,316 AC.

Rickar Vass tried twice to produce an heir and continue the Vass line; each time the child being delivered stillborn. If the loss of a child isn’t cruel enough, the days that followed marked constant hallucinations around himself until eventually they ended. After his stillborn children were born, the majority of the Northern lords believed him to be cursed and were unwilling to join their house to most of his siblings although many seem to not care.
Okada Bayeri II

**Okada Bayeri II** is the secondborn son and third child of Shibuya Bayeri II and Blaine Runeri. He seems to be a normal child enjoying animals flowers and bright colors, and is often seen smiling. He was pulled out of his dead mother and is often hated by certain residents and nobles of Saerial due to his unintentional killing of his mother at her birth.
The Kingsguard

**The Kingsguard** are a group of seven of the realm's strongest and most skilled knights, swearing solemn oaths to the protection of the reigning King on the Throne of Fire and his family. Members of the Kingsguard are sworn for life to the protection of the royal family, and are sworn to celibacy, and sworn from taking lands or titles.

## Equipment and Duties

The Kingsguard wear all white cloaks with the color of their house if they belonged to one on the inner side of the cloak, carry plain white shields, and with some occasional exceptions, wear little or no ornamentation or sigils on their white armor. This plain but striking attire lends credence to their role of being seen but not heard, until their advice is asked. Discretion and wisdom are often as important skills as martial ability, being as they are expected to be with their king or queen at all times, privy to all their secrets, plans, and every aspect of their personal lives.

The Kingsguard wear intricate suits of white enameled scales, their fastenings for breastplate and other pieces made of gold. They often wear long hauberks, adorned with pearl scales, chased with gold. The Kingsguard and the Kingsguard alone bear the right to carry a pure white unemblazoned shield.

One of the Kingsguard always stands guard outside the council chambers when the small council is in session, and one is usually posted outside of the chambers of the king and or queen if there is one in the room.

## Appointments

The rite for making a new member of the Kingsguard can vary. In common there seems to be the fact that it is a solemn and formal event, in which the knight kneels as he makes his vows before the king, and he receives the white cloak of the Kingsguard from the Hand of the King or the Lord Commander himself. The Lord Commander is always chosen by the king, with seniority and ability only playing parts in the decision. Also the Lord Commander is generally chosen from the existing pool of the Kingsguard.

Marcyl Darkviel

## Appearance and Character

Lord Marcyl is a is an older looking man with darkened brown hair that is starting to grey and a strong body. Although not the tallest or burliest of men, he is solid enough and physically fit. He has a full brown beard, but not one that extends too long, and he keeps it trimmed. His brown hair is mid-length, and is well kept and groomed. However, his face is often serious, and he laughs little in public. He looks as if he is always determined, and his grave demeanor and his life of duty and honor show through his face, making him seem older than he is.

Lord Marcyl, like all of Dakron Darkviel's children, are known for being dutiful, honorable, and just. He is quiet, serious, and diligent, and pious, and is well respected for his upstanding behavior and his loyalty. He is shy and not very outgoing. He is close to very few people, and often is melancholic and is described by some as cold. The only close friends and confidants he had were two men that he met in Ruizar, but since both of them have died. He is quite bright and diligent, and is very skilled with administration and economics. He is well read and learned, in particular having a great knowledge of history, laws and customs, and has a great deal of experience especially given his role as lord of the Darkviel ever since his brother Kasian was appointed to Maegaron II's kingsguard. He used to be a decent fighter, but as he has aged his skill has decreased, but he is still passable, especially with a greatsword.
Kiaed Jahdian

**Kiaed Jahdian I** is a member of minor house Jahdian and the current King Consort to the Golden Queen Rhaesys Vakerian. The youngest son of the late Lord Vaen Jahdian is both the wielder of Silence and a renowned scholar with a great interest in politics and nature. Since the marriage to Rhaesys Vakerian I he has quickly become a person in the political sphere that many fear for his mind outclasses or matches most of the top politicians of this age. It is very clear to anyone who meets him that he is not a fighter just like his wife, they are both very much politically driven but through peace and the preservation of the Realm. Upon his arrival at the wedding he brought countless Qairan lords along with him including the Osdials, who met and join the Golds.

## Appearance and Character

Kiaed has the appearance of a dainty feminine noble woman, wearing fancy jewelry, makeup, silks and occasionally clothing that is very beautiful but reveals quite a bit. He is a wonderful dancer, singer, and performer in general and this is one of the things Rhaesys loves most about him. He has lighter skin than those descended from his line, but still distinguishable from those living in the other kingdoms of Saerial.

He seems to like to spend quite a bit of time in the library learning about new things with both his son and Rhaesys. He often goes out with Rhaesys and his son into Nature to look around and spend time with his loved family. He goes and does anything that makes either of them happy even if it would be severely out of the way to do so and as such many describe him to be a great husband and father.

When it comes to what he reads he seems to have interest in the matters of history and particularly those of a mystic nature, not only with regards to the Faith, or rather, independently from the religions, in the first place. Descending from the House Jahdian, Kiaed holds his own considerable share of pride and with all his bravery, he still is not one easily roused, but rather a patient person.

He and Rhaesys actually were the ones that had properly convinced the Golden Bank of the Gilded Isles to back Maenyx Mullyn and them in their pursuit of the throne. Nobody knows exactly how they did this but it is likely due to their likable personalities and silver tongues. Rhaesys coordinated that while they were to get the golden bank Maenyx needed to go to Kintis and gain the support of the Kankor of which happened being one of the largest victories for their side in a single day.
Sylvia Kariar

**Sylvia Kariar** is the third-born child and second-born daughter of Lord Vansar Kariar I. She is but a child of seven years aged and has become known as a rambunctious but playful child as she loves to run around and read only when she needs to, she seems to not overly understand the current state of the world and is rather only focused on the immediate surroundings. She appears to be quite lively however and was born with the golden eyes and hair like her brother.
Vansar Kariar

### Relatives

Spouses: Vaynia Rane, Xhoza ZanaChildren: Lydia Kariar, Vorcan Kariar, Sylvia Kariar

### Affiliation

House Vakerian, The GoldsHouse Mullyn, House Kariar

## Appearance and Character

Vansar Kariar is lithe and smooth skinned with bright, deep golden eyes which is reported to shine almost as brightly as the gold he wears. His wavy hair reaches his collar, and he keeps his face clean shaven to show his excellent beauty. Vansar's hair is blonde almost taking on a gold appearance itself in some lighting. His fingernails are normally painted gold but occasionally in more recent years he has done black to match the field of the Vakerian banner. He has a faint, curving nose that seems to of maybe once been scarred but has since been healed over.

Vansar is dangerous and is fickle, stealthy, secretive, brutal, and how could we forget beautiful. The mocking man is quick to anger and is reckless. The Hand of the King/Queen is greedy wishing for his house to be one of the most powerful in the land topped only by the Vakerians and the Mullyn. He is unable to read Vakriez script but oddly enough he can speak it decently fluently as well as understand it.

The Golden Knight dresses in loud colors and finery. One golden outfit, for instance, includes a foam of golden-colored Jadian lace, a doublet with brass medallions in the shape of lions, and suede gloves. His high leather boots have ornamental goldwork, and his belt has gilded rings. Another outfit consists of the finest Saerial silks one could possibly find. mostly in shades of red and gold as he has fashioned his sigil as a golden lion on a field of red in later years. He also possesses glittering golden armor that possesses combat wear but not much.

Vansar wears a a*rakh* on his left hip and a stiletto on his right hip. Their golden hilts are a matched pair of naked women who appear wanton which he calls the same thing as he calls his wives, his Gilded Ladies. He has a ceremonial Ossen Steel sword as well gifted to him by Vaenyx that he has dubbed Godsbane, which as of current is in the hands of his eldest daughter Lydia Kariar.
Lacerta

## Appearance and Personality

Lacerta is a woman of almost terrible beauty. With a mane of dark hair and pale skin, Lacerta is tall, slender and full-breasted, with a narrow waist and a heart-shaped face. Her voice is deep, with an Eastern accent, and she is rarely ever seen not dressed in flowing red robes. Those who are not entranced by how beautiful she is are very frightened of her. She is never seen without a red tome around her waist.

She was found amidst the marshes in the arms of a half eaten corpse by High Priestess Ash who presented her to the flame just as she had the others she had found in that very state and the red god claimed this ones name is 'Lacerta' and as he said it that so became her name.

She quickly grew through the ranks of the Red Temple learning magic incredibly fact not seeming to even remotely need instructing. It seems that by whatever miracle the god put her down there she must of been a true gift. She not only has skills but also an incredible lust one that can break even the straightest of women or the loyalest of men and for that reason many fear her.

Lacerta appears to be an extremely powerful individual who can see visions in the flames as the other priests can do, and gives the impression of somebody who knows the very will of the Red God, though she admits that nobody can truly know his will in full as she can only see what the Red God allows her to see. She is completely confident in the Lord's power, to a fearsome extent. She is generally serene, dark and mysterious, described as terrible by many. She is capable of anticipating moves made directly against her, but there are certain limits to what she can see. Lacerta is clearly intelligent enough to manipulate other people's perspectives in her favor, so that she remains in a certain position of power.

Lacerta appears to be an insecure individual at the core with a mysterious past and a fear of the darkness that apparently awaits everyone. Despite claiming benign motivations, Lacerta is viewed with suspicion from some, due to her extreme ruthlessness.

**Carron Runeri** is the second-born son of Lord Carrel and Lady Valia of House Runeri, and as such, is not set for inheritance. In 1,323 A.C., he came to introduction with Alis Pecerean III, soon becoming fast friends. Ever since, Carron has swiftly fell for her beauty and charms, they grew closer and closer before wishing to get wed to one another getting it approved by each family and the crown. He since has gained the title of Protector of Ruizar as Alis and him chose to remain within Ruizar. Since their wedding three children have been born of their union. One daughter and two sons.

## Appearance and Character

Carron is a man of moderate height, standing at 5'10' tall. Complimenting his height of moderation is that of his lean and skinny build, appearing much like an ordinary individual in such a sense. Atop his head is a mess of short blonde curls, accompanied by light blue eyes, further so he also keeps his face purposefully clean shaven believing that it muddies ones face too much.

Having aged from year twenty onward amidst the Pecerean and specifically Alis' retinue and as one of his close friends, Carron, much in the way the rest of said retinue has been molded and affected by it, has seen his personality develop according to such.

While Carron always held inclinations toward the more discrete, veiled, and partitioned off portions of our world, such inclinations and skills only came to see further growth as he and Alis aged, The late Pecerean Lord Trytas came to greatly encourage their practice helping them seek out whatever he could help them find. As such they are well rounded people who knows both the top of the world and what lays beneath.

Unlike some of the others they grew up with outside of Sudal, Carron is not a man of an outright violent and cruel temperament. In contrast, he is a man of peace preservation and protection. As such when Brack Pecerean became the Lord of Ruizar he named Carron as Protector of Ruizar looking over the people's safety and security.

Since then he has had his children and has proven to be a pretty decent although busy father, encouraging whatever excites them at that moment and helping them with the proper materials to be able to do such a thing. He has also been a valuable member of Ruizar thinking always of the people first and him after, Ruizar has become a popular place amidst the war due to his protection and preservation of food rations.
Cemri Vass

## Appearance and Character

Born in 1,300 AC and behind several brothers and sisters, Cemri Obern was born a scion a little lady of the noble house of Obern. While even in the northern nobility it is not a guarantee that women follow their brothers and fathers in war, Rodrik Obern carried no such ideas. The rattle in Cemri's hand was quickly replaced with an rapier, and off to the training yards she went with her plethora of siblings and cousins to train and perfect her ability at killing in the name of the Gods.

The middle Obern girl was a rather serious faced child with sharp and stern little features, something that carried into her adulthood though she joked and teased just as well as the rest of them. In the middle of training, she was known for her focus; able to tune out everything else for the practice with a face made of stone. It was this rigid practice that Cemri was named the second best of all the children in the yard - ahead of even her older brother, something she has never let him forget.

Wandering around the small town surrounding Jarae, Cemri then found another outlet for her focus drawn to the shouting and cheers coming from a small gambling den, she watched as men gambled and played games, all before demanding to be given a shot. Picking up the different games bit by bit, the young girl became a regular member of the gambling scene, cursing and distributing threats with the brandishing of her rapier with the best of them. A year before the realm fell to pieces, she picked up a new game that came by from a traveler - and as the Defiance began across the realm, Cemri brought the cyvasse board alongside her rapier as they sailed out to Seagard.

Now a child of seven, Cemri was able to try her hand at her family's traditional practice. Her voice, several octaves higher than any of the men on either side, could be heard over the pitch of battle as she quickly tore through the men with her rapier the poor men who hardly knew what to do about the screaming girl before them, her hair tied up neatly into little braids on each side. Cemri, with a decent chunk of the fleet, stayed at the siege in Seagard as her brother and father went off to meet with Maegaron Vakerian and duel. For moons, they heard nothing. And as time went on, Cemri felt a sinking feeling in her stomach with which she was unfamiliar.

The feeling dread only gained a name and acceptance when her brother returned alone, bloodied and defeated and now named Lord Reaper. They sailed home, and for a few years their people stayed and licked their wounds, building ships, and waiting.

She met with Rickar Vass who was a friend of her brother and they both liked the others vigor and confidence. As such they married and since she has birthed three stillborn children and it is unclear if they will one day be able to properly birth a living child. Alas she likes her new home in Aysgarth especially the vast training and tourney grounds.
The Talons & The Wings

The **talons** and the **wings** were two incipient factions that had been forming around the sister-wives of King Vaenarr Vakerian I, since wedding Queen Vaehna Vakerian I.  The half-sisters had sometimes maintained a rivalry in the past, but this proclivity was exacerbated after Vaenarr’s taking of a second bride Queen Visaenys Vakerian IV. Given their powerful and magnetic personalities, deep political divisions run through the royal court, with lords and courtiers lending their ears to one queen or another in the hopes that they might garner royal favor.

## Origins

Queen Vaehna and Queen Visaenys’s rivalry had been an on again, off again affair since Visaenys' earliest years.  This however, for the most part, was a harmless affect of sisterhood. A true rift did not begin to grow between them until Vaehna’s brother and husband, Vaenarr, took Visaenys as a second wife.  Vaehna had, in the years since her marriage to her brother, experienced difficulties becoming pregnant after the birth of their firstborn son, and it was feared that she could well be barren after it. Visaenys, however, had fruitfully just bled and Vaenarr wanted more children so they wed each other when Visaenys was young.

Their rivalry, however, is not simply borne of personal dislike, the vagaries of romantic entanglement, and the ambition that comes along with it.  There are serious ideological differences between the two queens that can be traced back to their respective modes of advocacy during the many conflicts that plagued the realm.  This divide and counsel have continued since.  The king, and so the realm, has often found himself torn between the two viewpoints, compelling as both could sometimes be.

The titles derive from a remark made by Grand Maester Araphos shortly after the coronation of Visaenys as queen. If Vaenarr was the head of the dragon, he said, then Vaehna constituted its talons while Visaenys was as its wings.  Queen Vaehna, he reasoned, embodied all the terrible power that the great dragons curated by House Vakerian could bring to bear. Her methods were direct, and as her enemies during the War of Three Dragons learned, could be fatal to those who opposed the Dragon’s will. Visaenys, however, was a gentler soul, who often advocated more genteel methods such as diplomacy. Hers was an image of observation, preferring a complete view of a situation as a dragon might when aloft in the sky.

Vaenarr Vakerian's hand, Janik Pecerean was so amused by this that he commissioned a gilded brooch in the shape of a dragon’s claws and presented it to Queen Vaehna as a gift for her nameday that year. At a banquet held before a tournament to celebrate King Vaenarr’s nameday, Lady Vhaerla Vakerian VI followed suit by presenting a new gown to Queen Visaenys upon which the wings of a dragon were prominently featured.  These two scions of the court were not the only ones to embrace these images, as many began to align themselves with one sphere of influence or the other.
Narkian Dandemire

## Physical description

### Eye color

Brown

**Lord Narkian Dandemire** is the Lord of Roosthill and the son of the late Lord Rodrick Dandemire and Tarvi of House Dandemire. He was birthed in the year 1,297 AC in Roosthill; his mother, after a difficult birth, passed a week after and his father fell into despair. In his youth, he became a ward of Lord Pecerean in Ruizar until his father's death. Though being fostered within the faith he doesn't seem to have too close of a connection to it.

## Appearance and Character

Narkian Dandemire is a thin and tall man, though not as tall as his late father; he has cropped blonde hair, dark brown eyes, and a growing stubble. Lord Dandemire is honorable, stern, proud, and learned; several note him to be a skilled tactician, and seems to have a deep hatred toward the blacks.

Narkian possesses armor of ringmail and tanned sturdy leather inlaid with the godswood of Roosthill and oft times wears a bear pelt atop his shoulders and a long cloak of dark sable. Narkian is known to brandish a longsword and has a novice understanding of bowmanship.

Narkian's youth was spent within the walls of his home city. His studies were administered by Maester Karzak and Master-at-Arms, Brynden Redtree. Narkian seldom spoke with his father; though a man of honorable charge, late Lord Dandemire held a silent animosity towards him for "killing" his lady wife Tarvi.

Therefore, he often rode with Brynden and his two sons east towards Bajin and House Faerhorn and their holdings, eventually befriending them, but in the year 1,309 AC, however, his father would send him north to Ruizar to ward with Lord Pecerean.

Narkian assumed his father's lordship in the twenty-seventh day of Ninth Moon of 1,320 AC. His father who had become wary within his last days allowed for Roosthill to fall into disrepair and negligence of which Narkian built back up alongside his wife Helenys Dandemire in the first few years of his reign luckily finishing most repairs of large buildings by the start of the War of Three Dragons.
