Aeyan'arric

Aeyanie (by S'arric)

Rev'arric (uncle)

Rol'amar (cousin)

the Eight Guardians (previously)

Aeyan'arric (EYE-ann-AR-ik), the Ice Bringer, the Lady of Storms, is one of the nine dragons created by the failed ritual of Rev'arric. Originally a member of the voras race, she is the daughter of S'arric and C'indrol (though she did not know the later was her parent). While she is hardly a "good" dragon, of all the dragons she is the least actively malicious, which is to say she's exactly as dangerous as one would expect if a sadistic house cat occupied the body of an ice dragon. She's not particularly verbal or prone to communication, but she is excessively territorial, making it difficult to bargain with her as one could with some of the other dragons. Aeyan'arric is the least inclined to pay attention to humans so long as they stay away from her.

## History

The specific date and location of Aeyan'arric's birth are unknown. She is the daughter of S'arric, Guardian of the Sun, and C'indrol, one of the members of the Assembly. It can be assumed that Aeyan'arric grew up and lived with her father while having frequent interactions with the other Eight Guardians, C'indrol, and Rev'arric. It can also be assumed that she was born after the voras were forced to flee from the demons and the Guardians were created due to the rarity of children being born before that time.

Aeyan'arric agreed to be part of the Second Ritual conducted by Rev'arric, where was assigned to be the proxy for S'arric and his powers. S'arric begins to realize that something is wrong with the ritual when he goes to greet his daughter, but she does not smile back at him. Instead she is tense and anxious. When Rev'arric stabs S'arric with Urtheanriel through the chest, Aeyan'arric can be heard screaming her father's name in horror. It appears that Rev'arric had not filled in his niece on the plan.

When the ritual fails, Aeyan'arric can be heard screaming amongst the other eight participants. The process of turning into a dragon seems to be rather quick, S'arric mentioning that their screams "distorted beyond recognition into something deep, guttural, elemental." This did not stop the process from being painful, Aeyan'arric attempting to dig the distortion out of her flesh. Like the other dragons, she flees from their location. Her tenyé and souls were now connected to Vol Karoth.

## Synopsis

### The Ruin of Kings

Aeyan'arric does not formally appear in the first book.

### The Name of All Things

Aeyan'arric is first introduced when a snowstorm traps Kihrin, Janel, and company in a tavern. She prevents the groups escape through traditional means by create a massive wall of ice outside the doors and perching atop the tavern.

## Appearance

Aeyan'arric is the smallest of the nine dragons. She is described as ranging from glacially white to a combination of white, grey, and silver to opal. She has accents of blue and green in her scales and an underbelly of aquas and greens. When the sun hits her scales, it makes thousand of rainbows that cause her to sparkle especially when she is in the snow.

## Abilities

Aeyan'arric can create storms of all types over large areas, but she has an affinity for snowstorms and blizzards over rain. She is as dangerous as any other dragon, but tends to be more animalistic in her rages and tantrums. If nothing else, the storms that accompany her passage are always devastating. She breaths razor sharp ice shards that release with a hurricane-force blast.

## Relationships

### C'indrol:

The relationship between Aeyan'arric and C'indrol is unclear. She does not know that C'indrol is one of her parents. S'arric admits that at best, Aeyan'arric believes them to be a close family friend. Janel (the reincarnation of C'indrol) does express grief when she begins to remember her past life and realizes that the dragon she had slain in Yor was her daughter.

### Ir'amar:

Irisia expresses grief when her and Janel prepare to slay Aeyan'arric in Yor. She recalls knowing her as a child and even refers to her by personal name, Aeyan. Irisia explains that she was good friends with Aeyan'arric's father and due to the closeness of the Guardians before the Second Ritual, it can be assumed that she was constant in her childhood. In this time, she also recalls how when she was a child, Aeyan'arric's smiles were like the sun peeking out behind the clouds.
