## Biography

Liram was born as the fourth child of aasimar sorcerer Devlin D'Arcangelo and Ioun cleric Ismene. His older siblings were twins Carden and Casilda, and his older sister was Firiel. He was born a year before his final brother, Madoc. Due to the markings on his back, his parents believed him to be a symbol of good fortune from Ioun and the other divine forces that Devlin had previously served. He was his parents' favorite, which led to animosity between him and Carden, the eldest who felt that he should receive the most attention, and Casilda, who had previously been the parents' "omen child" and favorite.

Throughout his childhood, Liram was faced with impossibly high standards from his parents and bullying from his older siblings, which caused him to be very isolated from his family. He disliked the divine magic that his parents made him study to cultivate his innate power. However, he began to find solace in necromancy. After his horse died, Liram brought it back to life, revealing his new power to his parents, who began to worry for his destiny.

After losing some of his parents' love, Liram's siblings began tormenting him even more, seeing that he was falling from grace. It was at this point that Orcus made contact with Liram, promising him power and freedom in exchange for his service. Liram accepted, turning into a fallen aasimar. His parents shunned him, and when his siblings attacked him, he fought back. After grievously injuring Carden, Liram left his home.

## Relationships

### Family

* Devlin D'Arcangelo: Liram and his father have a pretty terrible relationship due to the high standards Devlin set for him, the pressure he put on him to meet those standards, and the cruel words he spoke when he learned of his son's necromancy and fall.
* Ismene D'Arcangelo: Liram seems to have a slightly better relationship with his mother, as he stated they used to read and research together, but it crumbled as Liram grew older and turned into a fallen aasimar, where she took the rest of the family's side in the argument.
* Carden D'Arcangelo: Carden is Liram's older brother, who despises him. Liram despises him right back and showed few qualms about hhurting him with his new powers.
* Casilda D'Arcangelo: Casilda and Liram have an antagonistic relationship, though he mentions that she sympathized with him a few times. Later on in his life, Liram recognized that she had a hard time surviving their family's hierarchy as well, due to being the previous favorite child and feeling like she had no choice but to side with Carden now that he wasn't bullying her anymore. Every time they interact, they interact cautiously.

### Allies

* Jolyne Vesper: Liram and Jolyne have been shown bonding over how terrible their home lives were.

## Abilities

### General Abilities

* Pact Magic: Liram's pact with the demon lord Orcus allows him to access strong powers of necromancy, being able to create zombies, skeletons, and even perform resurrections.
