## Compendium

Some people take strangeness in stride, but others find little worse than being outside the commonplace.

Ernol was born in the middle of an interfamily war of wills, an instant pawn in a game he had no interest in playing. His tale is not of overbearing expectation or unforgiving duty, when in fact these are the things which he bitterly craves. Instead of being born to the demanding General, high stakes, strict rules, and fierce demands alike, Ernol was born to the prodigal son. There was nothing demanded of him but to revel in the role of an upstart. He did not take well to this, chasing after his grandfather's legacy instead of his father's, wishing to be a warrior more than an outcast. He has a blistering temper, indignant pride and unnerving determination, all of which thoroughly blinded by desperation, but tempered even still by clarity.

## Personality

Reserved, aloof, and introverted, Ernol Milirose holds himself to higher standards than anyone else. He prefers honesty in himself and his associates and is short-tempered when crossed. A terse, ambitious worker, Ernol strives to become as accomplished as his grandfather and scorns the choices his father made.

Ernol, like his mother, tends to enjoy solitude over spending time with most. He makes exceptions for few close friends, Duliae Laushust and Skylar Selund.

## Appearance

Ernol possesses the same pale skin and dark hair as most Gha'alians. His hairstyle is asymmetric and short. He shares his mother's dark eyes.

Ernol wears three earrings in both ears. His clothes are black and blue, which are in line with most Gha'alians. Like his father, Ernol is mindful of trends and considers himself to have a strong artistic eye. He is familiar with the clothing importer.

## Early Days

*“The expansive home Ernol grew up in was as far away from the city proper as most Gha’alians ever got. He had begun to notice the distance between himself and the rest of the world almost right away; his earliest memories are of begging his father to take him into the city.

The older he got the further the house seemed to move from the city. The house of oddities, of shimmering, dancing, singing jewels splayed from the ceiling to the glistening floor had become a madhouse of mockeries and loneliness. His father paid his begging turned demanding no heed, and his mother… well, he rarely talks about her even now.

When Ernol first met his grandfather, he was returning from some glorious conquest, or so Ernol had imagined. Half a legion in aligned formation at his heels. His armor was shining but marred with the imprints of swords and each scar and scratch seemed to radiate pride and success. And he knew this man at the head of it all was his grandfather; just one step away from being his own father, his life just one step away from being in the throes of the legion.

And how he wanted that. How his body had froze as he watched and his mouth had dried when he had to return home.”*

## Relationships

Despite Lonre's long lasting disdain of Duliae, Ernol and the Onyx Chandler are longtime friends.

He is close with Skylar Selund who shares a similar background as a distrustful, wealthy outcast in Gha'alian society. The two are often seen visiting Duliae's residence together.

Ernol and Haron have a strong, brotherly relationship.

While related, Calipoa and Ernol mostly share a civil relationship with the former dubious that the later will be promoted to Commander because of his temper.

Ernol and Vadeyn are cousins but do not harbour a strong relationship. Ernol finds Vadeyn idealistic to a fault.

## Trivia

· Apparently Ernol challenged his instructor when he was eleven. He brings this up when warning the MC to not let her victories go to her head, and describes the event as having not gone well.
