Varano Faewyn I

Ser **Varano Faewyn I** is an anointed knight of House Faewyn and the Lord of Grahill following his father's dismemberment in Aseryn, with whom he has a long running feud. He tended to be classed as a joke in his early years due to his incompetence in fighting or in leading. However when he needed to pick up the ruling position never faster has someone grew so well to their role. He has protected Faewyn land to the best of his ability against the Qairan forcecs who wish to reclaim their land. He has kept the Faewyn loyal to the Throne of Fire out of respect for the King and his Queens. He wedded in 1,331 and since has gotten his wife Lady Pafinal pregnant with twins.

## Appearance and Character

Varano is described as tall and muscular, with somewhat earlyset grey hair that used to be the traditional black of House Faewyn. His face is lined and weathered, with bushy eyebrows above bright green eyes. As a leader rand a protector he tends to wear shades of green or his extravagant vined armor, he wears a clasp for his cloak shaped like grapes.

Varano takes the words of his house to heart and aims to be dutiful, honourable and just. He deeply cares for his nephew and his nieces, and is the first person that they would visit if they had a problem in their youth. Whenever someone in the family gets hurt or needs help he leaves with them. This may be a symbol of how much he cares for them.

Varano squired for a knight of House Lakoran in his youth and, when he came of age, he would be knighted himself with the understanding that he would become Lord of Grahill one day. He would make a name for himself in the War of Three Dragons fighting alongside common knights to rally and height their morale. He would return to Grahill a war hero past some injuries he suffered against Taehaenor Vakerian. Even as he recovered back in his keep he was planning still, figuring out how wbest to protect his homeland from the invaders that wish to take it away from him. He devised a plan that people now call the Grapeleaf Approach. He sent out the oxes they had kept hungry to storm the armies and that they did. They angrily stormed the Osdial armies goring tons of them in the way to simply get to the food supplies and grass on the other side meanwhile the Faewyn knights pincered from either side of the fleet unexpectantly while they were caught off guard. This obviously did not end the Osdials or the Mullyn fleets but it did successfully push them back quite a bit.

More recently the Lord now commonly known as Grapeleaf has mostly recovered from his wounds and is looking for revenge. While not hotheaded he wishes to fight until there are no more usurpers to fight as he is a heavily loyalist to the current Vakerian crown.
Saeressa Vakerian I

## Appearance and Character

Saeressa was the most beautiful of Maegaron Vakerian's daughters.. Or at least that is what she would tell you. She has deep red eyes and silver hair, flawless white skin, and fine beautiful features.

Saeressa was a vain girl. Once, when a young squire called her a goddess, she simply agreed with him. The attention of great lords, famous knights, and callow boys fed her vanity until it "became a raging fire". Saeressa delighted in playing one boy off against another and setting them on foolish quests or having them perform contests.

Saeressa was a wild, high-spirited girl. She was described as sly, and had a grace that was uncanny and unsettling in someone as young as she was.

According to Tirona, Saeressa desired to become a queen, and therefore aimed to marry her cousins, not for love but for ambition which to this day has not happened. In 1,335 AC, after Saeressa's brother Aeghar had refused her for many reasons including the factor of him being wed already, Saeressa grew a little upset.

According to Tirona, Saeressa had her eye set on her older cousin Vaenarr to be his second wife. Saeressa saw no reason as to why she could not be wed to an older cousin. Selera Vakerian, however, was determined to prevent such a marriage, and betrothed the eighteen-year old Saeressa in 1,335 AC to Levir Thulum, future Lord of Sarilt. Saeressa was not too excited about the marriage, as she thought Levir to be too unattractive despite his pretty nice physique. Saeressa first turned to her aunt for help, but Rhaeya agreed with the match and refused to interfere. Saeressa then turned to Aeghar, hoping for him to rescue her according to court gossip. One night, she slipped past Aeghar's guards and climbed naked into his bed before he arrived in hopes of wooing him over, but Aeghar quickly sent the drunk girl away when he arrived.

She did end up marrying Levir Thulum and they have made a decent couple at this point, at this point no children has come of the pairing and it seems as if Saeressa is still looking for other flings here and there as she believes her beauty can not be easily tied down by one man.
Cayde Glacerr

**Cayde Glacerr** is the son of Tornal Jantar and his second wife Lyssa Jantar. He is the current Master of Whisperers for the Blacks following his meeting with Maegaron Vakerian II in the year 1,328 AC.

## Appearance and Character

Cayde is stern and frugal. But he is known to be compassionate with his family, he is often seen as a closed book to those that don’t know him well, with his eyes hiding the inner workings of his mind. He is very loyal to the Blacks King Maegaron Vakerian II.

Cayde is a tall, handsome man, with black hair and blue eyes. Arrogant, amoral and cunning, Cayde has a sharp wit and a sharper tongue. Somewhat competent leading men in battle, he found himself far more at home amongst the wealthy merchants and spies of any kingdom that he may enter.

When Arren Glacerr returned home from a meeting with the blacks, he went to his brother in law Cayde with an order from Maegaron Vakerian to meet him at Firekeep. Cayde obviously accepted this offer almost instantly getting on a cart and riding all the way south to Firekeep, he entered meeting first Daegar Vakerian I who talked to him for quite some time asking about his knowledge gathering ability of which Cayde responded honestly with the fact that he used to be a spy for a minor lord in the North. Daegar didn't seem to be upset but rather amused, he instantly brought him to Maegaron who established him as his spymaster and Master of Whispers.

He wed Breannei when she was aged seventeen making him Cayde Glacerr due to his low status. They fell for each other quite quickly, although it is hard to tell exactly what made one fall for the other as in a lot of ways they couldn't be more different. She grew pregnant at age twenty one giving birth to their one and only child Hailai Glacerr II, of which Cayde has proved to be a lacking father being far too into his various assignments and spies information to properly care for his daughter.
Regia D'arr

## Appearance and Character

As a child Regia was a skinny girl with knob knees and a face full of pimples. Now in her mid-twenties, Regia is lean and long legged, with dark eyes and long blonde hair. Her face is thin, with a small, sharp nose, and wind-chafed skin. On her neck is a faded pink scar that she keeps hidden on her otherwise mostly flawless skin. Regia's brother, believes her hawk-like nose is too big and sharp for her small face, but he feels that her kind smile makes up for it.

Regia is a wild and headstrong young woman, raised by her mother to be bold. There is a boldness to the way she walks; part saunter, part sway. She possesses a sharp wit, and has no problem with holding her own against men, both in a verbal battle and in a physical fight. Regia enjoys ale and wine. Defying the classical gender roles of Saerial culture, Regia was appalled early on by the idea of becoming a lord's wife despite eventually becoming one happily. After her older two brothers died and her younger brother was taken hostage, Regia's father began to see her as his successor, treating her like he would a son.

Regia personally leads her men into battle. She captains her own ship, *Falcon*, and has the devotion of her crew, who take a perverse pride in the deeds of their female captain. According to Regia, half of them love her like a daughter, while the other half want to sleep with her. Regardless, Regia loves her men, and is willing to die for them, as they are for her. Regia is also well liked by the servants of Runekeep and people of Lorport. Regia is not devoted to any sort of faith.

She eventually met Karrem Seronyth who turned her life around, and she quickly fell for him due to his uncharacteristic highborn features and personality. She does seem to love him unconditionally supporting him in whatever endeavors he wishes to go and do. She has not captained her ship in a bit of time but it is still waiting for her and her crew still protect her with their lives. After their wedding the other Seronyth accepted her as a member of the family other then Vernan Seronyth who still calls her a useless Foreign Whore. Which once led to a standoff between Dain Karrem against Vernan who backed down as not to hurt his family but he still definitely keeps the same sentiment. She has gone on record wanting to poison the fat cunts wine as he would surely drink it even if he knew it was in there, alas most take this as light jesting... Unless something comes of it.
Kasian Darkviel

Ser **Kasian Darkviel** is the Lord Commander of The Kingsguard under King Maegaron Vakerian II Tirona Pecerean and Aniza Lakoran. Born in 1,301 AC as the second born son of Ser Haran Darkviel and Lorena Darkviel, Kasian grew to become an honorable knight and exemplary fighter, earning his place in the Kingsguard, and becoming the Lord Commander of the Blacks.

## Appearence and Character

Kasian stands at 6,3”, towering over his Waxley brothers, with black hair that ends at his neck, and brown eyes. He is also strong and agile. Though not handsome, perhaps, he is not unpleasant to look at.

Kasian exhibits many of the features of that of a true knight: kind, honourable, loyal, courteous and just. He has no temper to speak of and can handle any situation calmly. He has a very strict distinction of right and wrong, but this is often muddled by his sense of duty.

He also exhibits extreme martial prowess, he can effortlessly wield swords and spears.

By 1,320 AC, Kasian, aged 19, had lived in Vakar for 3 years, and had become a Silver Sword of the City Watch. He was known around Vakar for being a very capable swordsman and one of the best Silver Swords in the city, though in fairness, there was not much competition. Not that anyone was surprised, despite the Darkviel's falling from grace in status they were always great warriors. Kasian was called up personally by Maegaron Vakerian to fight in the War of Three Dragons after the fall of King Rhaelarys, the representative directly stating “A man of such stature should fight for the king in his army, not in his city. The king will grant your family to its former status once more... If you only do this one thing” He quickly accepted this offer proving to be one of if not the largest supporters of the blacks and has the sword skills to back it up.

Kasian fought bravely many battles and was the turning point of a lot of battles for the blacks as his commanding ability is unmatched for the most part. He however made his true glory at the Battle of Nasvil where he personally commanded over 700 soldiers after the death of their captains. He commanded them the best he could and succeeded in the efforts, he is praised as a hero by the people, praise that would earn him even more renown with the black crown.
Corban Kankor II

Corban Kankor is the son of the Lord of Kintis Seban Kankor and the Lady of Kintis Fernea Kankor, formerly steward of Seagrave, and now the Reaper of the Marshes. Corban Kankor is oft described as a fanatic of the ancient pirate ways, and has done little to dissuade that notion.

## Appearance and Character:

Corban Kankor is a agile individual, standing 5 foot and 9 inches tall, and his body is corded with muscle from a early life upon the sea. His face is as wild as an ocean gale, and while in the past he has let his hair grow out in thick tangles, now he keeps it cut close. He has deep set brown eyes, often described as intense, and his crew have found it difficult to maintain eye contact for too long. He dresses in boiled leather upon his ship, but otherwise he wears a suit of plate-armour emblazoned with the insignia of his house.

Corban Kankor is a pious man however worshipping the old god of the Sea Drenera, made more pious by his time at sea. He is fiercely a seafarer, protective of his culture and often takes offence at insults directed towards his house or his crew. At the same time, Corban is often reasonable, especially to those he deems worthy of his respect, and has been known to find compromise when he and another are in conflict. He holds Drenera and the Marshes above all else.

It was the War of Three Dragons, despite causing great loss of life to the his people, that provided Corban with a level of freedom he had never known. His father Seban was made Lord of Kintis, and suddenly Corban was given prestige and the reputation befitting the brother of a major lord, including the command of a vessel he named the *Salt Spray*. He talked with his family and told them to sail with him to strike out with him for the glory of the Goddess of the Sea, but was refused. In a black mood Corban left the Marshes once more upon his ship next to Maenyx Mullyn and vowed not to return until he had shed enough blood upon the sea to redeem House Kankor in the Goddess’ eyes.
Elden Thulum V

**Elden Thulum V** is the eldest son of Ser Meya Thulum and Ser Gregor Thulum. He sits at no true position, and has little to no sway at court but many respect him and think him entertaining due to his large lavish performances he often puts on.

## Appearance and Character

He is described as skinny and beautiful, and having black hair that is elegantly cut. He apparently looks eerily similar to his great grandfather when he was young, although shorter and less muscular. He prefers to be clean shaven, starkly unlike his brothers and northernmen alike. Despite being a northman in blood he has never been up to Sarilt only knowing life in the south such as Vakar.

Elden is both handsome, confident and charismatic, possessing a sense of humor and an ability to win people to his cause, although sometimes he is seen as frivolous. He is much beloved by the smallfolk due to this charisma that he has, and his constant patronage to different performers in the city. The northeners cannot stand him because of his humor and his complete, blatant disrespect for their traditions. Elden's humor is often rather disrespectful, but he finds himself amusing enough not to notice. He is often considered to be like a young Denzin, but the latter was a much better warrior by half of Eldens age. Elden was willing to laugh at the expense of those he was supposed to respect including princes, princesses and the Kingsguard.

Elden however is, in his own right, extremely kind, especially to women even if it is pretty much known that he does not delight in them. He protected and supported Alyra when he met her from heinous accusations of Alyra being the illborn bastard child of Alysa II Vakerian and Maegaron II Vakerian. Elden is a skilled politician and could easily attract loyalty on his own, but he is unaccustomed to combat and war despite it raging around him, which sets him apart completely from his parents, who are respectively great warriors and experienced commanders.

Elden is likely homosexual, despite the amount of attention he receives from highborn females. He disdains from book learning, believing that only maesters should read. He does, however, possess some books with unholy drawings that he often is with implying some form of pornography.
Markas Hopiar

### Relatives

Spouse: Gilli HopiarChildren: Killian Hopiar, Qeryk Hopiar, Seyana Hopiar, Deejuh Hopiar

## Appearance and Character

The second son of Mychael Hopiar, Markas rose to serve his family and counsel his brother. Though his words were not always full of wisdom, but fury and aggression. A young man with an almighty temper, Markas took to sword and steel over words and diplomacy. A fair man, an honourable man, though sometimes blinded by his rage. Oftentimes people would refer to him as a beserker more then any sort of nobleman.

In his younger years he would train with his sword and shield, every day from the moment the sun rose until the sun set. Military warfare was his focus and what brought joy into his days rather then the normal wishes of alcohol or women. As brother to Axel, they would train and spar every evening, even though his brother had lessons beyond the sword, and Markas did not even in the slightest. It is unknown but many men and women even to this day are unsure if Markas can truly read or not as he has never been seen to do such.

Like any aspiring Knight, Markas learnt to ride a horse; not like a page or a common noble, but rather like a warrior and a Knight of Ingving. With a steed as black as his armor, Markas would become an adept rider which only improved his prowess in battle, specifically leading the vanguard.

In 1,291, the Widow Raiders brought chaos and havoc to Hopiar lands. Seeking to pillage the villages, rape the women and destroy their homes. Upon discovery of their hideout, it was Markas that led the charge and disbanded the bandits, slaying their leader in single combat. For his bravery and tenacity he was Knighted by his father.

When The Defiance came, Markas would lead the Hopiar vanguard into battle time and time again. On one of the last battles of the war Markas lost his father and brother in combat making him the Lord of Ingving but this did not stop him. He continued rallying his men on the brink of defeat, slaying enemies beyond counting through sheer adrenaline filled rage and tenacity. But the bloody murder upon the battlefield did not go without consequences, as Markas turned to drowning himself in ale. If only to stop the screams that reportedly haunted his sleep.

He would seek distractions to curb his addiction, travelling Saerial and competing in any and every tourney that was announced and finding some success. To this day no living man or woman knows if this worked for him or if he is still plagued with the voices to this day.

In the year 1,325 when the War of Three Dragons broke out initially Lord Hopiar was one of the first men to pledge his sword and lands to the Usurper King Maegaron Vakerian. He was rewarded greatly for his loyalty even getting the promise of a large bit of land which would give them access to the coast if the Blacks were to come out of the war victorious.

With his wife Gilli Hopiar he has ruled with an iron fist and brought four children into the world all of which seem to have more of a level head then he even if he does try to knock his ideals into their head from time to time.
Dorissa Osdial I

**Dorissa Osdial I** is the Master of Coin for Maenyx Mullyn after being outed from the position on King Raemor Vakerian's council. She is the first child of the late lord Vyreo Osdial and Lady Ilnea Osdial. When she was a newborn, at the behest of Patrina and her father, she was taught from a young age how to speak and how to command a fleet of ships that would become crucial to her entire life.

## Appearance and Character

Like her brother, Dorissa possesses both Foreign and Saerial characteristics. Her eyes, like her father's, are a deep black but are described to sometimes glimmer a shade of dark green in the light. and her hair is a deep onyx black like many in her family. But unlike her brothers, she is not modest in her looks. Her mane is wild and flowing, falling just short of the middle of her back. She tends to wear a dragon scale around her neck that she gained from a battlefield.

She wears gowns of darker colors: blacks, greys and violets. In her younger years, she wore more extravagant dresses and jewelry and still has a passion for them but seems to wear them less due to the times..

Her attitude strictly depends on where she is. In the public eye, she is charming and persuasive. Her speeches are well thought out. She exercises a compelling charm that inspires devotion in some people. Some even trust Dorissa with secrets that should be taken to the grave. Dorissa is reclusive behind the doors of Aseryn. She would rather do things on her own than to have ladies-in-waiting or handmaids, though servants often show up at her door.

Dorissa realized her worth and her skills when she was called upon by King Rhaelarys Vakerian II. She came out of her reclusive state and treated life as sacred. She threw feasts and mingled with men that one day may be her husband. Some people even trusted her with secrets. The information she was receiving was dull, in ways, but it gave Dorissa a new outlook. She could help her family succeed and watch as the others fail. She would bring justice in the name of the deserts.

After the death of the King, many members of the Small Council were casted out of Vakar and back to wherever they resided. While Maegaron planned his rebellion, Dorissa had kept to herself about the knowledge of Maenyx Mullyn until she saw that it was an imminent threat.
Tyron Thulum III

**Lord Tyron Thulum III** is the Lord of Sarilt alongside his wife, Lady Giyana Thulum. He is the only son of the late Lord Eyron Thulum and Lady Jania Thulum.

## Apperance and Character

Tyron is a strongly built and lean. Shades of green are hinted throughout his stormy hazel eyes, and a head of long, messy black hair sits on top of his head.

His regular clothing consists mostly of plain brown leather and wolf’s fur. Due to his father’s early death during Tyron's teenage years, Tyron is fiercely independent having ruled Sarilt since he was sixteen years of age . Emotionally, he is rather withdrawn, trusting few with his true emotions.

Though he had lost a father early in his life, Tyron's harrowing experience to the far north won him five new 'brothers' half of those who had survived with him. They call themselves the Dreadsuns, and have taken Tyron Thulum's personal sigil, a to sinister red sun on a shield sable, as their own. Formally, they serve as his sworn swords and shields. Privately, they serve as his trusted friends and peers.

At the onset of the War of Three Dragons, Tyron was almost 55 years of age, and very eager to fight. He had told his family to let him ride south, but they both refused due to his older age, and took to defending the North. Tyron spent every day of the war training his swordsmanship, knowing full well he would have to fight one day for the war would surely reach Thulum land at some point in his life. He also trained with a bow, and went hunting almost every week with his brother and father.

By 1,340 A.C, the Scarlet Winter had just begun, bringing with it months of pure suffering and tragedy for the Thulum. Tyron caught several severe colds, risking death on more than one occasion. His family suffered the same or worse. During an ill-fated hunt, he would succumb to severe frostbite, devastating the family psyche. It was his brother Christor who had found him, with Talana not far behind. They desperately tried to get Tyron before a Maester in time, but to no avail. He died the following day the frostbite taking over his body too far, in his final moments he pulled his eldest son and heir Denzin Thulum into his chambers and supposedly told him some secrets that the Thulum family has held.. Alas nobody knows what was said, or what may be being kept.
Shibuya Bayeri II

**Shibuya Bayeri II** is a member of House Bayeri and married into House Runeri. She was born the firstborn daughter to, Kasai Bayeri, and his second wife, Nesora Kantan. The unexpected shift unexpected at least for her family came in the year 1.326 AC, when upon request Shibuya left Thouriel to permanently move to Sudal and live with Blaine Runeri.

Shibuya claimed Runeri prince and without hesitation started to have children for the blonde prince setting out to exert her influence over the city. Relying on her charms and diplomatic finesse and indubitably the efficient delegation of her assets she was swift to garner popularity. She gained allies, and her method of rewarding loyalty with considerable benefits and answering malice with merciless reckoning has done well to silence the voices of discontent that some may hold for her new house.

Her most notable accomplishment thus far, however was the pivotal role she had played in bringing about the Alliance of the Narrows in 1,331 AC. It had led to an expeditious growth of her reputation outside the walls of Sudal, and it was arguably the event that had simultaneously allowed her to consolidate her power as a despot.

## Appearance and Character

A young woman of foreign descent, Shibuya carries the mark of her family in every aspect of her bearing and appearance. She stands out as short at the modest height of five feet and three inches, her svelte figure is augmented by long years of training as a water dancer, and she moves with feline grace and fluidity, wielding her natural beauty with confidence and design.

She wears only scarce make-up upon her heart-shaped visage, which is further defined by her thin upper lip lining against a somewhat fuller lower counterpart, a dainty nose in the centre, and soft angled brows above her pair of almond eyes. Pairing that, her fair and nigh flawless complexion is what one would expect from a Bayeri, and the bright hazel of her irides a unique characteristic as far her ancestry goes creates a vivacious image with the black color of her hair.

Depending on the activity, Shibuya prefers to unleash her long strands over her back or keep them in a compact updo, yet not a stranger to diversity by any means, she regularly has it curled as is common in her new city of Sudal, and tries new styles on a near-daily basis. The warmer climate of her idyllic island leaves her with an abundance of options for clothing as well, and sparing no coin on the richest fabrics, she consumes fashion with the fervor of a spoiled princess.

In 1,342 A.C., Shibuya became pregnant again. During the first few days of the eleventh moon in the same year, Shibuya went into labor. Following a full three days of painful labor, the child would not come no matter how hard she pushed, she died on the childbed crying out and begging for her husband who was currently out at battle. There was an attempt to save the baby after the lady's unfortunate death and after extraction the baby lived fine but small and sickly. Blaine eventually returned from battle finding his loved wife dead with only the child to replace her.
Alysa Vakerian II

**Alysa Vakerian** is the youngest child born of Princess Rhaeya Vakerian and her husband, Lord Kalyn Thulum, a **Princess of Saerial** and current 'Lady of Scalekeep'.

One of the more enigmatic Vakerian children, Alysa was largely detached from the royal court until into her late twenties, retaining only a muted stake in the grand political game.

Instead, the princess is publicly noted for a withdrawn temperament, though like many of her lineage she possesses a firm tendency toward boldness and entitlement when so inclined, despite her wants to avoid such issues. She became the quoted Princess of Scalekeep upon wedding Serron Rane in 1,326 AC. Currently, Alysa Vakerian is expecting the couple's fourth child.

## Appearance and Character

Slender and willowy, delicate features embody the fragility found in noble blood. A heart-shaped face and wide red eyes brings the definition that makes Alysa appear more meager than haughty, and her smiles are dazzling and exceedingly common.

An air of self importance is well-matched by an outwardly detached demeanour. Possessed of simple charm, hers is a capricious kind utilized only when it befits the wielder. Despite this projection, Alysa is amongst the quieter members of the royal line when it comes to political matters, and entrusts her carefully cultivated presence to convey more than words in the majority of situations. She refuses to talk to many members of the Vakerian family as of current because she doesn't want to get yelled at for not 'helping' in the warfront. She believes she and her family are doing quite a lot holding down the Castle of Scalekeep which is commonly her home at this point.

Those within the circle of the royal family know Alysa to be a lesser amalgamation of the better-known Vakerians. She is not forceful like Vaehna, or necessarily charming like Visaenys, or as formidable as the Late King Raemor by any regard. Alysa silently remains a shadow of a woman by the variety of influences that shaped her, tucked away like a catspaw's blade.

The observation does give credence to the question of how the smallest dragon could hope to claw her way from beneath the colossal shadow of the monarchy. Some call her the moniker of Dreamer due to her late blooming prophetic dreams that has helped her family stay safe and out of peril. Nobody can necessarily call her a wonderful monarch or politician but there is no doubt that she is a very kind and outgoing woman who loves her family with every ounce of her being. She stays out of politics not exclusively for fear but also for the reasoning of keeping her family safe which.. Serron Rane does well at.
Catlyn Seronyth II

**Catlyn Seronyth II** is a member of House Seronyth and is the elder daughter of Lord Wyllam Seronyth and Lady Oani Seronyth. She has one younger brother: Rastin Seronyth I. She was promised to Malaev Vakerian III in 1,323 A.C. at a young age and eventually married him in 1,330 in a large ceremony on Firekeep mirroring the ancient traditions of Vakerian Marriage.

## Appearance and Character

Catlyn is traditionally beautiful, taking after her mother's foreign looks with her high cheekbones, deep silver eyes, and retains her fathers Midland looks with her thick soft brown hair. As she has grown up, her figure has been described as tall, graceful, and womanly. Catlyn is described as soft-spoken and sweet-smelling.

Raised as a lady, Catlyn possesses the traditional feminine graces of her milieu, with a keen interest in music, poetry, singing, dancing, embroidery, and other traditional feminine activities. Like many girls her age, Catlyn is enthralled by songs and stories of romance and adventure, particularly those depicting handsome princes, honorable knights, chivalry, and love. She keeps faith with the Master of Fire but seems to resent the Matron of Ice for the war against the Mullyn forces of the Golds.

Catlyn's relationship with her brother Rastin is often strained, and the two are opposites in most respects. Her dearest friend with lots of the Lakoran children such as Eliar. Catlyn is fond of sweets as well, with the cooks making the treats whenever possible.

Catlyn was born at Runekeep, with Maester Havar aiding Oani Seronyth during the delivery. In her years, she has been tutored by Septa Karina in the traditional womanly activities.
Caerys Vakerian I

**Caerys Vakerian I** is the Prince of the Jeweled Sea and Saerial, and the only son of Rhaesys Vakerian and the performer Kiaed Jahdian. Though he has lived in Jadia for a good portion of his life he dreams of one day being able to go to Vakar and Firekeep with his family to see these great bastions of history for himself.

With his mother being the Golden Queen, Caerys' childhood was one of luxury and prosperity. His father helped too of course teaching his child all that he knows while Rhaesys would look on smiling showing him great feats of nature and teaching him to be a kind and sensitive man. He is well aware of the war going on currently and wants it to end but also won't accept another option then his mother one day sitting on the Throne of Fire. His great grandfather Vaenyx Vakerian III paid a knight to travel from reportedly Leng (Which should be impossible but no matter how much the knight is questioned he claims that he sailed from Leng) to Jadia in order to guard and train the child in swordplay while his parents train his mind.

## Appearance and Character

Caerys has almost all of his mother's features bright platnium hair with a golden streak however his streak is at the front of his face versus his mother's strand moreso on her side. He did not inherit the Golden Queen's heterochromia but his eyes still possess both Vakerian and Mullyn coloring. He did obtain something from his father though which would be his hair texture and nose. Shorter then most people his age, he doesn't care and takes his sword training lessons with grace... even though he doesn't prefer it to being with his family.

Caerys much like his mother has the look of an ancient dragonlord; his high cheekbones, aquiline nose, and strong jawline leave him rarely in need of telling people who he is. Despite his young age he is the stuff of many a lady's dream: gentle yet forward, flattering yet genuine, and smart minded but can wield a weapon to protect.
Masuda Bayeri I

## Appearance and Personality

Masuda Bayeri was regarded as extremely beautiful in her younger years, with thick and wavy blackish hair, large black eyes and a slender but womanly figure. She is fair and lively, with a shy and sweet smile. She is regarded as beautiful or pretty by most people, having many suitors in a young age she ended up surprising them all when she announced in 1,330 that she was to join the faith as a septa.

Masuda is highly intelligent, courteous and polite to a fault, with an almost effortless savvy for political talks and exploitation however at this point she no longer uses this knowledge and instead strictly serves the faith. Starkly unlike her newfound nemesis Ueyama, she does not need to resort to sex to get what she wants and seems genuinely capable of being kind and compassionate to other people; which she believes her family member can not do. The people of the Faith adore her but the majority of the higherborn realm hate her as she is trying to get the faith to strengthen alongside some of the other younger children, of which would take certain powers from the crown and rule hand in hand.

Her doings as a septa are vastly unknown, people see her in the grand citadel and see her performing holy rituals but there is no knowledge on what she does beyond that publicly.
Levir Thulum I

**Levir Thulum I** is the eldest son of Denzin Thulum, Lord of Sarilt and Bredgit Thulum. He has one twin sister whose name is Rila Thulum.

## Appearance and Character

Levir has more Thulum-like features than his sister could ever have. He is graceful and quick, and has a lean build. Levir has the long face of the Thulums, with dark, brown hair that looks near black and very dark green eyes. Levir resembles his father, Lord Denzin Thulum. Out of all the Thulum alive today, Brenn Thulum is said to resemble Levir the most despite being cousins.

Levir looks solemn and guarded, and is considered sullen and quick to sense a slight. Due to having been raised in a castle and trained by a master-at-arms, Levir is seen by some warriors as arrogant at first, though this changes when they become more friendly towards one another, as Levir is reminded of his nonetheless privileged background and decides to pass on his knowledge to them. Levir is observant, a trait he developed on account of being the future lord of Sarilt. He is a capable horseback rider and is well practiced in fighting with a sword. He desires to be viewed as honorable and wants to prove he can be as good and true as his father one day. As a northerner raised in Sarilt, Levir keeps faith with the gods much the same as his mother does, oftentime being found inside of the sept praying for good fortune.

Lord Denzin but especially Lady Bredgit is fiercely protective of Levir and refused to send him away. He was raised at Sarilt with his twin sister, where he was tutored by the maester, and trained at arms by the master-at-arms, Ser Marin Tol. Levir has trained at swordplay since he was old enough to walk, together with Rila, whom he came to view as his best friend, rival and constant companion, and later also with Breanna Thulum, after the latter came to watch him in the training grounds of Sarilt. Levir was taught how to swim by swimming in the great moat at Sarilt; while he is considered a strong swimmer there were a few times he grew ill in these years due to parasites in the moat.

Eventually he was promised and wed to Saeressa Vakerian I, while the Lord and Lady of Sarilt did not approve of this for she is known for being obsessive and overbearing, their pleas were not heard by the court of Vakar who did so anyways. She was sent up to Sarilt in her fanciest lavender silk dress and seemed to be more interested in looking at herself or other men rather then Levir. It is said that they consummated the marriage on their wedding night as is tradition however this can not be wholly known. What is known however is that she does not see Levir as a good match for her terrestrial beauty, and as such has not been faithful to him by bedding other men and some would say, women. Now while Saeressa has not been faithful there are claims that Levir has not been either delighting in common whores and maids alike whenever one pleases him, it can surely be stated that the pair do not love each other but make for a well enough couple. The union has bore no sons or daughters at this time although Levir claims that he is trying to do his duty to the best of his ability.
Garan Aryon I

**Garan Aryon** is the secondborn child and firstborn son of Ser Gerys Aryon I and Lady Nimue Vakerian II. He is but a lad of three years aged and has become known as 'Garrr-aaaa' within the Stormkeep, as he does rather struggle to pronounce his own name. He appears to be quite lively however and was born with the Rudded Hazel eyes like his sister but also oddly born with platnium blonde hair.
Earial F'aer

**Earial F'aer** is a man that few people know anything about, He was appointed to the Golden Kingsguard by Vaenyx Vakerian III from the Fabled Lands of Leng. It is completely unclear if he actually comes from Leng implying there are actual humans there or if he is simply lying about his origin. He is ridiculously tall taller then anyone most people have ever seen standing in at seven foot one inch.

## Appearance and Character

Earial is a charming and handsome man, many claim however he is never with a smile on his lips. He has odd shining hazel eyes with black hair that has odd patches of white and and a black goatee. Standing 7'1" Earial is one of if not the tallest man in Saerial history, not only is he tall but he is also one of the strongest knights that have been seen in a long time, his disadvantage though and the reason he would likely lose in a fight against Kyrak Pecerean or Maegaron Vakerian is due to his lack of agility especially with his large greatsword.

Earial is a knight that puts honor and duty before anything else even talking. He is not like most knights in the way that he is stoic but almost to a concerning amount. He takes his vows and oaths very seriously never even thinking about breaking them. As stated before he has never been seen smiling and the times he does speak he speaks in a thick broken accent that can't quite be placed but is very hard to understand.

When The War of the Three Dragons began in 1,325 AC Earial got a letter from Vaenyx Vakerian III that proposed that he fight with the golds as a member of his kingsguard. "*It was his duty*" he thought.  Earial saw many men getting slaughtered aboard his ship and his enemies ships when the naval fleets went into battle. He made a name for himself during the war, killing more troops that he could count, many of the Generals and Captains noticed his skills during the war. He fought fearlessly at The Battle of Scalekeep until the Stinger Bolt fired towards Raemor distracting him and he got knocked to the ground by a soldier of the Talons. He awoke the next morning in a cart with Maenyx they had won the battle and that is all he cared about.
Dencin Lakoran III

**Dencin Lakoran III** is the Diplomat and acting advisor to his brother Lord Eliar Lakoran I, claiming the seat after his brother's ascension to Lordship. He currently also serves on the Small Council as the appointed Master of Coin. He is set currently seeking suitors however it seems that his standards are quite high in who he would even consider as a possible option.

## Appearance and Character

A handsome man at the brink of his prime, Dencin Lakoran III owns himself a sturdy physique strengthened through years of training, and appears marked by the classic features associated with his noble bloodline. Regardless of this he definitely inherited the mind of his Father or Aunt, being a brilliant strategist and is incredibly good at getting the Black Crown coin when they need it.

Like many of his forefathers, the young Master of Coin is gifted with a pair of ocean blue eyes that oft shine with a lighter hue in the sunlight, a rich set of brown locks that he keeps a close cut on not wanting it to be long by any regard, and a pleasantly sharp visage, which is carried by the composition of a slender nose, low cheekbones, thin lips, and a moderate yet pronounced jawline that is hidden by his facial hair that he proudly wears on his face. Natural beauty is his heritage, but it is the gentle countenance he always seems to wear that completes his gallant image.

The youngest son of Syron Lakoran and Marilla Lakoran's children, Dencin was born in 1,327 A.C. While the birth of a second son earned him a special appreciation in the eyes of his father, he was undoubtedly overshadowed by his older brother, Eliar, who was set from birth to inherit Uliria's seat.

Through his adolescence, Dencin was often left to his own devices in comparison with Eliar when it came to the standards of grooming nobility. He was a talented boy, gifted with curiosity and diligence; yet, he preferred to experience the world through his own eyes, instead of what was written upon the pages of books. Such were the antics of a boy, that earned young Denicn due punishment when he was found to be skipping the Maester's lessons. Despite this he somehow manifested into a smart man seemingly understanding more nuanced behavior as he learned differently then the nobles around him.

A wealthy man, in control of one of the largest vaults in all of Saerial, he knows how to expend money when needed and when to take money from others. Much like Vaenarr's Mistress of Whispers nobody is quite sure how he gained this information nor exactly how he gets money he doesn't pay out from the vaults. However the likely answer is that the boy was born and raised within this war learning for himself it is very possible he learned the Saerial customs of finance and studied previous ledgers, yet there is no proof of this either.

The young women of Saerial often swoon for him or his brother, they have a friendly competition with each other sometimes to see which man gets the more women knocking on his door. However despite this they seem to attract different types of crowd.
Calain Osdial III

**Calain Osdial III** entered the world in the 7th Moon in 1,327 A.C. He is the firstborn son and child of Lord Vargor Osdial I and Lady Elicea Osdial. Just like his sister, he would be born in the Water Gardens of Aseryn. He currently acts as the heir to Aseryn and as such has gained the title, the Prince of Aseryn. He wields the Ossen Steel of his father, the Sunblade, as he is recovering from the flux that tore through his body.

## Appearance and Character

Calain's deep black eyes display constant severity and hold a gaze that informs those it touches that he will never completely trust them. He bears a complexion typical of those of Salty Qairan descent, and his shoulder-length black curls fall delicately upon him when he is not wearing the turban associated with his armor.

Calain Osdial was born in the year of the Great Famine of the Qairan Deserts, in 1,327 A.C. Being of noble birth no doubt contributed to his good health as a newborn, if not saving his life completely in such a dark period of Qairan history during the War of Three Dragons.

In the year 1,333 A.C, Calain 's father Lord Vargor Osdial led Qairan forces in the War of the Three Dragons. Vargor would frequently write home to Elicea throughout his time on the battefield and on occasion would write solely to the young Calain, who would have his caretakers read of his father's adventures excitedly. Such writings became an expected joy to the young Prince.

However such joys would inevitably come to pass, for in the year 1,338 A.C., Lord Vargor Osdial returned home to Aseryn to defend the homeland, what should of been more time spent with Calain became less as the war became more pressing to the area. Devastated, Calain entered a brief period of depression while his younger sister Mylona prepared herself for her new role as the princess being shown off and such. By year's end however, Calain would be knighted and join his father at Court to help defend his future home, working with the likes of the Mullyn the Vakerians and the other members of court.

By 1,340 A.C, Calain Osdial had become a staple of the Qairan Court, bearing his charming and youthful innocence. It was also around this period where the Young Prince became bored with most of his traditional lessons taught by the maesters, instead starting to favor following the footsteps of his father Vargor and even listening in on some of his more militaristic discussions regarding the Golds and their strategies.
Elyana Bayeri I

Elyana, also known as the Songbird, is the mistress of whispers on the small council of King Vaenarr Vakerian a position she previously held for King Rhaelarys Vakerian II and King Raemor Vakerian I starting at age 15.

## Appearance and Character

Elyana is a thin woman with long hair and is often said to be a very effeminate woman. She has soft hands. She often wears foreign white laces and will refuse to be seen in any other color. She often is described to smell of lavender, lilacs, and rosewater.

Her outward manner is obsequious, mysterious, and secretive. However, as a trained mummer, she is a rumored to be a master of disguise and can change her voice, gait, smell, and overall appearance, employing different wardrobes, make-up and wigs, to become unrecognizable. Some even believe that she can see through the eyes of rats to be able to gain any secrets she desires, others take this further and think that any wall she can see and hear through although this is vastly unlikely.

Secrets are Elyana's trade, and her skill at acquiring them has earned him a reputation for being seemingly omniscient. Nobody quite knows how she manages to accomplish this many suspect a spy network but she oftentimes gets reports faster then spies could easily travel or so people think.

Elyana's history of providing information to her side is often contradictory.. Does she not know of any movements or secrets before anyone else or does she simply refuse to say anything of them, as such she has rumors planted against her of aiding enemies, of pitting rivals against one another, and of manipulation to achieve her ends has earned her a reputation of being distasteful and untrustworthy among the nobles at court. Despite this though she still helps Vaenarr in his efforts to unite the world once more and gives him his enemies secrets to use against them or to plan against them. However, she claims to value order, stability, and peace above all, and professes loyalty to those who work for those goals as well.

As the master of whispers in wartime, she has the task of fostering division amongst the enemies of the Throne of Fire, and gathers information on all that happens in the realm.
